WHO'S THE BOSS?

So I came to the harsh realization over the last few days that I no longer run Diminished Fifth Records... in fact, it runs me. For those that know me best they say this has been the case for quite some time now… and I won’t disagree with them. The odd thing is that I just realized that for myself, consumed by my ambition. I guess you are always the last one to notice when you are being dominated in a relationship. I’m Diminished Fifth Records bitch... A slave to the proverbial 'Man'. It is just a strange relationship when I'm my own boss yet I'm still a total slave-driver and asshole to myself. I guess most self-employed business owners are the same.

But have no feat, I’m not gonna pull some ‘poor me’ bullshit, because in all truth, things have never been better for D5R! I’m just overwhelmed with a work load that would make most people cringe. Honestly, I like the challenge… well not so much the challenge but the sense of satisfaction that comes with the accomplishment of the task(s).

Right now there are some really exciting things happening at the D5R Camp: New IRON GIANT and GALLACTUS releases coming out in the next 3 months. Once again we are a sponsor at the Maritime Tattoo Festival this coming May and will be blasting the metal and hard tunes for all the tattooed folks to hear! There are also a few yet to be named projects that are being ironed out so hopefully I have some new announcements in the coming weeks about that.

A few cool things that I can announce is that we know have a few of our albums available for download through Apple iTunes

DISCHORD - Siege of Darkness and ORCHID'S CURSE - Goodbye is when the Casket Closes

Also I’m pleased to announce that Iron Giant will be tearing up many a stages in Eastern Canada in March.
