old years turn to new years

2010 was a great year for Landmine Marathon. We spent more of the year on the road than we ever have in the past. We made many new friends and also had the opportunity to hang with many old yet familiar faces. 2010 also marked the addition of our new drummer Andy York, to say the least the new blood is invigorating and inspiring. That being said, it is safe to say that we will be laying low for the first part of 2011 to focus on writing the follow up to our last album Sovereign Descent (if you haven’t already picked up a copy, we highly suggest you do so!). So far being only a few songs into the writing, I can honestly say that our excitement level for the new album is very high! Updates and official announcements will be coming a bit later.

Many thanks go out to all of our friends and fans who have helped and supported us. The list is endless, but we wanted to give some highlights of said list:

Ron Martinez, Ami Lawless, Bob Deep Six, Val, Rich Hall, Curran Reynolds, Adam Shore, Brian Lew, Fred Pessaro, Skeletonwitch, Jarrett, Dane, Withered, Salome, Deadsea, Early Graves, The Funeral Pyre, Dan Dismal, Brian Taylor, all of the venues that we played and bands that we played with, everyone who booked a show, everyone who fed us or let us sleep on their floor, everyone who came to a show, hung out and got wild with us...

Landmine Marathon and Selfish Satan Recordings are beyond pleased to announce the release of a Landmine Marathon cassette box set! The Box Set contains all 3 Landmine Marathon albums (Wounded, Rusted Eyes Awake, and Sovereign Descent, each pressed on different color cassettes) in a hand screened box that also contains a screened mini poster and patch, and is sealed with a LM sticker and hand numbered! This is a limited edition of 100. Landmine Marathon will have a few of these when they hit the road with Skeletonwitch and Withered, or you can go to http://www.selfishsatanrecordings.com to get yours!

from the label:

"SSR is honored to work with one of the most important bands in extreme music. What Landmine Marathon has accomplished as a band since it's incarnation is nothing short of amazing. The packaging of this 3 cassette box set is a nod to the old school, Landmine Marathon's music is the future of grindy death metal"
