Upward artwork for new t-shirts

Our friend Omar made for us this funny artwork for the new t-shirts we're planning to release very soon. He already made for us the cover of Warning Signs EP, check some other works on his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/omarcanziartista

This new tees will be printed by Hard Knocks Printing, but we have yet to define the colors.

Il nostro amico omar ha preparato per noi questo disegno molto divertente per le magliette che vorremmo stampare molto presto. In passato aveva già disegnato la copertina dell'EP Warning Signs, se volete vedere i suoi quadri ecco la sua pagina fb: https://www.facebook.com/omarcanziartista

Le nuove t-shirt saranno stampate da Hard Knocks Printing, ma dobbiamo ancora definire bene tutti i colori. 

New releases made in Italy, Ragecage, Chains, Something Higher Compilation

2015 begins with good news for Hardcore, especially for the "made in Italy". Chains (Bologna) is working on a new album, 12 songs for the LP called "Crawling Stronger". On bandcamp you can already listen to one of these tracks.



Another great news, 2 members of Upward with other friends started a new band called Ragecage. Their first release, Sick Songs Demo will be printed on tape by Assurd Records for Italy and Rat Trax Records for the US.



During January will also be released by Youth Crew Records and Beyond This World Records a compilation CD called "Something Higher". Every band is somehow related with Krishnacore, and the Italian rappresentatives are Safe, Traces of You and Fumbles in Life (with an old cover of Shelter).
To end this long post, both Upward and Set Me Free are working on new songs, brace yourselves!

Il 2015 inizia con qualche qualche buona notizia per quanto riguarda le uscite musicali, ed in particolare sul fronte made in Italy. I Chains di Bologna stanno infatti preparando un nuovo album, 12 tracce che andranno a finire su un LP intitolato "Crawling Stronger". Sul loro bandcamp è già disponibile all'ascolto una traccia. https://chainsxcrew.bandcamp.com/
Altra grande novità è la nascita di una nuova band, i Ragecage con due membri degli Upward. Il loro EP, Sick Songs Demo uscirà in cassetta per Assurd Records (Overdrive Banzai, Upward, Hobos, Angler e altri) in Italia e Rat Trax Records per gli US. https://thisistheragecage.bandcamp.com/
A gennaio verrà anche fatta uscire da Youth Crew Records e Beyond This World Records una compilation CD intitolata "Something Higher". Tutte le band hanno in comune l'essere in qualche modo legate al movimento Hare Krishna / Krishnacore, e i rappresentanti italiani saranno Safe, Traces of You e Fumbles in Life (con una vecchia cover degli Shelter).
Per concludere sia Set Me Free che Upward stanno lavorando a nuovi pezzi, quindi preparatevi!

Upward - Warning Signs EP promo

Another promo for the release of Warning Signs EP by Upward

UPWARD "DEAD IN THE WATER"

Upward is going to release a brand new EP this year, 7 songs recorded and mixed at Cellar Door Station last November that will be out on tape and maybe on vinyl as soon as possible. For the moment enjoy this song called "Dead In The Water", track #3 of the album.



"my lungs are collapsed
you know they always been so
I tried to put my head out of the water
but its difficult to swim in the shit
as it always gonna be
and need to take this very last breath
as air lacks of action
drop into deep brace yourself up to die
ready to fall like its been from the start
drown down this filth this is how I feel
my spine is hold down
by the weight if these times"

Upward - Demo 2013

Last week Upward recorded a couple of new songs in rehearsal room. Even if the quality is poor, we decided to let people know we're writing some new stuff for our next album, so I published on bandcamp this short demo. The official recordings are planned for this autumn, for the moment enjoy a preview of Get a Clue! and Dodgy, that will be part of the new release with about other 4/5 songs.

---

Settimana scorsa con gli Upward abbiamo registrato un paio di nuove canzoni in sala prove. Anche se la qualità è abbastanza bassa, abbiamo comunque deciso di far sapere che stiamo preparando qualcosa di nuovo per il nostro prossimo album, così ho pubblicato su bandcamp questo brevissimo demo. Le registrazioni vere e proprie saranno in autunno, nel frattempo ascoltatevi un'anteprima di Get a Clue! e Dodgy, che saranno parte della nuova uscita insieme ad altre 4/5 canzoni.
