Except for now. FINAL-FUCKING-LEE!!! We're making it over to fucking Europe for Denmark's 5th and final <a href="http://www.killtowndeathfest.dk/" target="_blank"><strong>KILL-TOWN DEATHFEST</strong></a>. Pretty much been a dream of ours to travel 'across the pond' as a full fledged band. Check yet another box off our collective bucket lists. <br />
Not to worry, this isn't gonna be another stupid, sellout, returncoat reunion gig. <br />
We never went <em>anywhere - </em>in more ways than one!<br />
So to all you overseas DEATH METAL MANIACS, this is your best chance to catch us, not rotting but live and alive. <br />
We're probably not gonna make it over there again. <br />

<br />
Well, it's been quite the hellish year so far, nothing to do with CIANIDE for a change. Not directly anyways. Due to a LOT of personal shit that went down with us, we had to put a LOT of band time on hold. More so than our usual...<br />
<br />
Which is why we buckled down and practiced our asses off this past month to play our <u>only</u> show this year! We are driving down to Indy!<br />
<br />

Special thanks to Doug and the mighty <a href="https://www.facebook.com/RadiationDoug" target="_blank">RADIATION SICKNESS</a> for putting this IMMENSE line-up together. With our pals in ABSCONDER and COFFINWORM, we're really looking forward to tearing it up and purging our darkened souls. </div>

We haven't even looked at our gear since our <a href="http://i13.servimg.com/u/f13/13/18/26/83/cianid10.jpg" target="_blank">GIVE THANKS TO THE METAL GODS</a> show this past Thankgiving except to throw it in the dungeon like a petty theif left to be forgotten about and die - slowly.<br />
<br />
Never fear though as the fire still burns. We have 2 songs already written (well almost) and need 1-2 more for our next record which will be an EP. Probably throw a cover song in there too. Depends. Realistically we're looking at mid-late summer to start recording. Ah fuck it. Summer is too hot and Fall is THE BEST season anyway. We'll shoot for that. Prepare to be PULVERIZED!!!<br />
<br />
Lot of show offers of late. With the above schedule we're gonna have to icksnay if not but all of them. Unless something "too good to be true" comes our way, staying put right here in Chicago for CIANIDE live shows sounds waaaaayyy more appealing the more older and crabby we get. We got a good thing going at <a href="http://www.emptybottle.com/" target="_blank">The Empty Bottle</a> for every Thanksgiving weekend, so might as well roll with that. With age comes wisdom, and<em> at least</em> we're getting more handsome...<br />

We're back at it now and hard at work on writing new material for an up-coming 4 or 5 song 12" ep to hopefully come out early 2013. The new shit were writing is heavy as all hell and coming along quite nicely for a change! Seems there is some life in these old Iron Dogs after all. <br />
<br />
Also...we had no plans to a do show for the rest of the year but, here we are with one last Heavy Metal show that should not be missed. We've assembled a sorta dream line-up (bands we've wanted to play with for years) and are proud as hell to bring this to all our metal brothers and sisters here in bloodshed city....Chicago!! Show is at Empty Bottle, Saturday Novemember 24th (1035 N Western Ave). We'll have more news as it happens....Cheers.<br />

Fuck me, what a year it's been too. Probably the most <i>'productive'</i> we've been in this 20yrs(+) ride. Not bad for some aging fuckers, eh? Have to say that the last gig a couple weeks back with Autopsy, Cardiac Arrest and Bones was nothing short of fucking stellar. A better night could not have been had...place was sold out and filled with excitement the whole time, and all us local boys gave it our all to a very much appreciative crowd!! Gotta say Chicago made us proud that night and Autopsy was floored by the reaction of the show. Was so great to have beers and catch up on old times with the mighty Autopsy... a greater bunch of metal sicko's cannot be found anywhere, and fuck did they SLAY!<br />
<br />
So, what else...ah yes, the NYDM Spring Bash III up in Wisconsin was a blast last month too. Again, we were treated well and our brothers in Cardiac Arrest and Absconder raged the stage with us that night. Great time and one for the memory books...cheers to all you Milwaukee men and women, you know who you are!!<br />
<br />
Up next is Portland's Goregon fest....I think?? We've still not received our flight tickets but, promises have been made so we just gotta see what happens. I'm sure all will be well and can't wait to slay the west coast for the first time in our lives! Gonna fucking rule. Get ready you crusty fuckers...there's a fucking storm fighting it's way from the Midwest back to the West! Lets Go!<br />
<br />
Also....in case anyone don't know. Deathgasm Records have re-issued our debut on cd. This has been long overdue and Evan has done a fantastic job with this. Go buy it and pick up a shirt too...<a href="http://www.deathgasm.com/" target="_blank">GO HERE.</a> <br />
<br />
Ok, that's about it for now...here's a vid and pic from the Autopsy show for all you Death Metal Maniacs!!!<br />

<br />
<strong>PRE-ORDER ONLY! EXPECTED RELEASE DATE IS March 19!</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>The Crypt is proud to announce the second album from Chicago Death Metal kings CIANIDE! For the first time ever on vinyl we present the band's sophomore masterpiece "A Descent into Hell" coupled with their "CIANIDE... KILLS" demo and “Scourging At the Pillar” unreleased track.. </strong><br />
<br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong>Formed in 1988, CIANIDE's vision was to create the heaviest Death Metal in existence... and they DID! Truly CRUSHING and DEATH HEAVY, the way it was meant to be, finally seeing the light of day once again, on glorious vinyl format!!!</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Strictly limited to a one-time only pressing of 666 hand-numbered copies, 222 sets will be on 180 gram classic black vinyl. </strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Clocking in at almost 80 minutes, the length per LP side ended up being way too long to fit a standard double LP set. For optimal sound quality, this massive Death Metal Beast is mastered at 45 RPM across 3 slabs of wax. They come housed in a 350 gram, reverse-board printed, triple gatefold jacket featuring the original CD cover art, "Hell" by The Limbourg Brothers, lyrics, unpublished band photos and new extensive liner notes by all 3 original members. </strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Included in all 666 copies is a luxurious 24" x 36" (60.96 cm x 91.44 cm) poster of the original Limbourg Brothers "Hell" cover artwork. </strong><br />

Time flies when you're kicking ass. With a brand new album, a killer reissue and a handful of awesome live shows, 2011 shaped up to be quite a year for us. Something of which was waaaaay overdue to happen. In my opinion anyway. We just need to keep that momentum going and get down to doing what we do best - writing some heavy as hell DM. Hopefully we'll have 4 or 5 new tracks by the end of this year for a EP release in 2013. "Why an EP?" you ask? Simply because we never released one before and we just think it would be cool. <br />
So for the time being, instead of something new - here's something old. Really fucking old. The very first rehearsal we EVER did. Which was recorded back in Spring of 1988 with a boombox in the middle of the floor. This was with original singer/founder Bill Thurman on vocals as well (I can't scream like that!). <br />
The song is/was titled <strong>Dead</strong> appropriately enough. We barely knew what we were doing - but kicking ass all the same.<br />
Ah miss them early days. <br />
Oh well, Enjoy!<br />

The gig was a total success and after 20+ yrs of playing our hometown this was by far THE best show we had here. All bands kicked fucking ass and we all pulled together and all helped each other out with hauling equipment, using each others shit, and just a general all around cool vibe within the bands playing and how the club treated us made this a very memorable night. Very fucking cool, and just a few people shy of selling out the venue!! AMAZING for a local gig. Cheers to all involved.<br />
<br />
Here's an interview before the gig with our old friend Ray from <a href="http://www.metalcurse.com/" target="_blank">Metal Curse</a> did with Mike and I before the show:<br />

This Danny (promoter) guy has been a bit of a pain in the ass to deal with but, we have our airline tickets paid for and we will show up. Yes, we were promised hotel and shit like that, and we've not heard back at all on that but, were grown men and can pay for a hotel ourselves and won't cry about it. This ain't the first time we've gotten shafted and won't be the last, fuck it, looking damn forward to TEXAS!!! See ya'll there......as they say.

We're extremely excited to announce the reissue of CIANIDE "Hell's Rebirth" digipak cd under exclusive license from Displeased Records.<br />
<br />

Creating the heaviest Death Metal in existence has become this Chicago based death dealers trademark. Presented in a glorious 6-panel digipak, Cianide's fifth album, "Hell's Rebirth" became an instant classic upon its release in 2005. This reissue comes with 5 never-before-heard demo tracks from this recording session. Hearing the progression from demo-to-album is a treat for all bullet belt maniacs. <br />
<br />
Expect no frills and no bullshit. Only a continuation of the death, doom & destruction maniacs have come to expect over the last 20+ years! This is what true death is all about. CIANIDE KILLS!!!! Don't ever forget this.<br />
<br />
"Hell's Rebirth" has been Out of Print and is a true gem of pure underground.<br />
<br />
DEATH METAL from a band that has never given up and still continues to crush 20 years after they were born. Bow down to the masters of down-tuned death/doom! <br />

Oh wait, meant getting drunk...another beer or three and it <i>might </i>be close! So, into glory ride we ride. The album and cd layout is complete and should be going to press as I type this nonsense that no-one will read. Again, the HHR crue are the coolest around. Fuck me, talk about easy to work with and really getting things done exactly how our feeble minds envisioned this album to be is just fucking AWESOME!! Seriously, no teeth had to be pulled at all, thankfully, 'cause I can't spare anymore loss of teeth after last years dreaded Sweet Tart incident (yeah i lost a bottom front tooth on candy...none more metal than me!). Everything looks totally metal and will be out in August!!!<br />
<br />
Lets see, other news??? Hmmmmm....well, it's heavy heavy drinkin' season so things are a blur. We've been takin' it easy after MDF and should start up practicing again quite soon. Maybe. Got a few tunes spinning around my head that should be cool, or are those Running Wild tunes?!?! I dunno...it's all a haze. Heard the new <b>Cardiac Arrest</b> "vortex of violence" cd the other night and that will destroy minds and reap souls for sure...should be out soonish. Buy or Die!!<br />
<br />
Until we die again...here's a vid link our good friend Johnny Vomit took from MDF. Cheers.<br />

First time we played live since 2008.<br />
Guess our logo didn't make the cut of the main part of the flyer. <br />
Oh well. Story of our 20+ year career.....<br />

We'll just have to <strong>KICK FUCKING ASS</strong> a little harder than usual is all. <br />
Prepare for your <strong>DEATH</strong> and<strong> ULTIMATE DESTRUCTION</strong>.Cianidehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08926444802060980281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982502518813440939.post-58453864329856785512011-04-20T20:10:00.000-07:002011-04-20T22:39:59.410-07:00Slowy we turn.......step by bloody step. Who ever said it's a long way to the top wasn't lying...and look where it got him. Well, it's a good thing it's always nice and crowded at the bottom, where we've hung our heads for nigh on two decades. Lotsa good company down here, so, no complaints whatsoever. Good times and bad, always a time and time is the ulitmate killer for most, not us, were stubborn bastards commited to our ways and our ways only. Fuck the rest.....if we die lonely and forgotten, so be it. <br />
<br />
So, whats new then? Well, for starters Hellsheadbangers Records have now recieved all of the metal/artworks/credits from us and all is now in their hands to put out as they see fit. They've been nothing short of brilliant to work with thus far and by far the most honest and upfront fucking label we've dealt with. Nothing but praise for Chase and the gang!!! Salute to HHR!<br />
<br />
We've been sorta slacking on the practice front for MDF a bit, and have just been informed we should have about 40 minutes of metal ready to go....we only were planing a 30 min set. Geuss we gotta dust off a couple more..all and all, no worries. We only need two weeks practice before a gig anyway. Fuck, at this stage in the game it ain't gonna get any better than it is...so, why try and shine the turd, ya know?<br />
<br />
In other news...Mike actually wrote a new song that is by far some of the heaviest shit we've yet to encounter!! Who knew the old man had it 'em...ha...gonna be great and we plan on recording that and another new tune(s) as soon as we get 'em down. Both will appear on some sortra 7", or maybe a 5 song 12" later in the year, who knows?? Thats the beauty of this shit..it's all up to when we get around to doing it. Summer is comming and that is usually heavy heavy drinking season for Cianide, unlike winter, which is just normal heavy drinkin' season for us..ya dig?? In other words, it may take longer, but ya never know..were feeling damn great these days. <br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Thats all for now... heres a video of Chicago's greatest Hard Rock band, The Boyzz, playing in our mighty brethen city of Cleveland!!

Were old and quite frankly, pretty lazy when it comes to band shit. As the handsomest man in rock-n-roll, Handsome Dick Manatoba, once stated..."this is just a hobby for us ya hear, a HOBBY!!". Albeit a hobby that has pretty much controlled our lives for over 20yrs, but still, it is what is and still a fuckin' blast to do, so, we ain't going anywhere anytime soon...except maybe the grave. Thats a given. <br />
<br />
Ok...onward we slay. The album artwork is finished and came out heavy as expected. It's fucking killer and has a great nod to the past glory days of Metal covers. We are now having our Polish alliance artist Rafal Kruszyk do some inside book art and shit like that. He rules and we expect to have that soon. Also, new band pics will commence this weekend for your viewing pleasure, ladies relax, we relise we're getting better looking but, please stop sending the constant requests as two thirds of us are taken! Instead, send your love to Mike's facebook page....he's still in the game and quite the playa too!!<br />
<br />
Also....we have confirmed that we are indeed playing another show this year besides MDF, hell, were pratically on tour at this rate. Yep, we'll be playing the Rites of Darkness fest down in the Lone Star state in December. Lots of cool devil metal bands are playing and it's gonna be a blast.<br />
<br />
Thats all for now and may all you nightmares come true...beware!!<br />
