Insert Spanner.....

We've just learned that the JK Flesh 'Posthuman' CD release has been delayed in printing and therefore, we have had to move release date to 7th May 2012.

I know a lot of folks will be disappointed but there's nothing to be done - shit happens etc. - we'll all have to just be patient for an extra week.


In the meantime, we're hard working on screen printing the LP sleeves with Stew Print Rooms. As you can see, the test prints look amazing and we're all really excited to see the finished results.

Elsewhere, there has been some great quality fan-footage arise from Mr Broadrick's Roadburn 2012 residency including his JK Flesh performance. Much love to the guy who took the time to record and upload all the footage - you didn't want credit but you know who you are ;-)


More updates to follow over the next week.

JK Flesh - 'Posthuman' Update.....

We're just two weeks away from release date for the JK Flesh album so I figured it a good time for an official update on all the current goings on.

Double LP
We can confirm that the Posthuman Double-LP will be limited to 500 copies for the world. The package itself is all nine tracks across two pieces of vinyl, housed in a screen-printed, hand-numbered sleeve. We are behind schedule due to the amount of labour involved so we're aiming for a release date of 14th May, and working hard to get the stock to the retailers as soon as possible. More news and photos from the process to come soon.

Daymare Edition
For those that don't already know, Posthuman is also being licensed to Daymare Recordings for a Japanese domestic release, featuring a second CD with over 30 minutes of bonus material. There will be an extremely limited amount of these available at the 3by3 shop but it's likely that stock won't arrive until late May. More details on this to follow.

Pre-Orders
Pre-orders are widely available so please enquire at your preferred retailer. Following are links to pre-order from some UK independents that we strongly advocate, and who have supported 3by3 for a long time. Please buy from them and prove that we're worth supporting!

Posthuman CD (3BY3009):

Posthuman 2LP (3BY3009LP):


The 3by3 shop is almost ready as well and will have the entire back catalogue and all editions of Posthuman available. As usual, subscribe/follow/friend to stay in the loop.

JK Flesh - Posthuman promo 3 of 3.....

This is so close now, I can taste it! 3 weeks today, the JK Flesh debut full-length Posthuman drops proper. It's been a long time coming and is the biggest project I've tackled to date by a mile.

To finish off the promos, below is the third and final snippet - the absolutely brutal (and my personal favourite) Punchdrunk. By now, you can also hear snippets of all the tracks from the album at online retailers so this will be the last piece of audio from 3by3.


Label update to follow very soon with more information about pre-ordering the album, the Double LP and the launch of the 3by3 shop.

Very exciting to see this project finally come together, in no small-part due to the hard work of a few key individuals/companies, who I want to mention:
  • Mr Broadrick, obviously - gracious, patient and professional to the last.
  • Ameet & Anna Hindocha - Ambigraph provide virtually all 3by3 visuals and have put their stamp all over this project with an amazing combination of great photography, solid creative and inspired design.
  • Lauren Barley - Rarely Unable assisted with much-needed press support for the project and spread the word in a way I could never have hoped to. Chances are that 90% of you are reading this because she (indirectly) told you about it!
  • Optimum - Optimum Mastering in Bristol handled the audio masters and vinyl cutting. Amazing service as always; understanding, talented and professional.
  • SRD - Southern Record Distributors, 3by3's distribution partner. Supportive and professional as always, and like many distros, never credited.

Thanks to everyone for supporting!

Here we go folks, promo 2 of 3 from the forthcoming JK Flesh album, Posthuman, released 30th April 2012.

Here's the awesome slideshow video by Ambigraph, showcasing their amazing design and photography for the project.

For all you audiophiles out there, the track is also available to stream at higher quality on Soundcloud.

The final promo will land next Monday ahead of Justin's performances at Roadburn 2012. In the meantime, get your head crushed by some monolithic riffage!
