Kowloon Walled City "Gambling on the Richter Scale" Out Now



The Perpetual Motion Machine is proud to announce the release of the debut full length from San Francisco-based sludge/noise-rock outfit Kowloon Walled City, entitled "Gambling on the Richter Scale," which is finally OUT NOW on vinyl LP + CD.

It is available for order in the PMM store and a free download of the entire album is available here.

Working on this release has been a hell of ride so far, and I couldn't be more stoked on working with this solid bunch of hardworking, talented, patient, social networking, ever enthusiastic dudes. I'm mighty proud of the album and all the work they've put into it and I hope people check out the release. This is bound to be one of the most bad-ass heavy releases this year, at least for me, giving all the heavy metal superstars a goddamn run for their money.

I want to thank everyone who pre-ordered and helped us get this thing underway. Your support was undeniably vital to the label and the release with this crazy summer of releases. I've been working non-stop over the past week, packing and shipping orders and shirts, so if you already pre-ordered, your record/cd/shirt is in the mail. If you haven't definitely consider picking it up, you won't be disappointed.

And if you live on left of coasts, venture out to see them play some pretty rad shows over the next two months:

10/1 San Francisco, CA @ DNA Lounge w/ Kylesa, Saviours, Bison B.C.
10/8 Chico, CA @ Cafe Coda w/ Prize Country, The Makai, La Fin du Monde
10/9 Eugene, OR @ Oak St. Speakeasy w/ Last Empire, Lucika
10/10 Portland, OR @ The Know w/ Book of Belial, Elitist, Ritual Necromancy
10/23 San Francisco, CA @ Annie's Social Club w/ Madraso, Lucika
11/17 San Francisco, CA @ The Knockout w/ City Of Ships
11/18 Santa Rosa, CA @ TBA w/ Litany For The Whale

Kowloon Walled City LP+CD Ready to ship!



Everything for the Kowloon Walled City "Gambling on the Richter Scale" LP+CD is finished and ready to ship! I've been busy packing orders all weekend and will start shipping them out tomorrow. The preorder response for this release has been unbelievable and kind of overwhelming, so it will take me a couple days to get everything shipped out, but fear not, it will be worth the wait. So thanks so much to everyone that preordered this!

For those that haven't checked it out, I encourage you to do so. This is one of the best heavy records I've heard in quite some time and a solid, pissed off, noisy, pummeling listen from start to finish. We'll be putting up a free download of the album soon for the non-believers.

Stores and distros will be able to get copies next week from Revolver and Ebullition.

Upcoming KWC shows:
10/1 San Francisco, CA @ DNA Lounge w/ Kylesa, Saviours, Bison B.C.
10/8 Chico, CA @ Cafe Coda w/ Prize Country, The Makai, La Fin du Monde
10/9 Eugene, OR @ Oak St. Speakeasy w/ Last Empire, Lucika
10/23 San Francisco, CA @ Annie's Social Club w/ Madraso, Lucika
11/17 San Francisco, CA @ The Knockout w/ City Of Ships
11/18 Santa Rosa, CA @ TBA w/ Litany For The Whale

Kowloon Walled City LP Update



Kowloon Walled City kept themselves busy this weekend screen-printing 500 cd sleeves to be included with their upcoming LP. These will enclose the cd and will be inserted in the LP jackets.

If you haven't had a chance to pre-order the shirt package and want one, I suggest doing so now, as I will be ordering shirts in the next day or two. Everything will be shipping from the plant shortly and I hope to start shipping orders around September 21.
