Diagram Of Truth Officially Signs On With Window Licker!

Window Licker Records is pleased to announce the signing of hip-hop artists Diagram Of Truth!

Diagram Of Truth is an ever changing entity, and the sound they imply is whatever you make it to be. Although a box is not attached to their songs, they are rooted in hip hop music. Ranging from a fun and energetic attitude to a dark and melancholy atmosphere, the duo fully captures each mood lyrically and musically but leaves it to the audience to ascertain.

Residing in Northeastern Illinois, the duo is made up Withope and Gramps. Handling all things lyric-related, Withope also produces and scratches. While he engineers and produces, Gramps does backup rapping and manipulates the instrumentals live as well.

Make sure to pick up Diagram Of Truths latest double-disc release "Cultivation and Culmination: Remixed and Rare" on the WLR online store.

Window Licker Signs On Ready The Destroyer

Ready The Destroyer

 

Window Licker Records is proud to announce they have signed on hard rockers Ready The Destroyer. Based in Chicago, Ready the Destroyer is Neill Miller (vocals/ guitar), Aaron Cleall (bass), and Nicolas Lama (drums). This three piece is focused on layering unique melodies on top of energetic and flowing soundscapes. Ready the Destroyer, best experienced live, explores every aspect of sound with the aim of stimulating the senses. Neill's been writing and recording original songs since 1993. With a natural sense of melody, Neill's strength lies in layering and arranging guitar and vocal melodies that captivate a wide audience. Whether writing songs on acoustic guitar, or along with a full sonic assault as in Ready the Destroyer, his experience in composition continues to shine, adding structure and familiarity where chaos once reigned. As the singer and guitarist of Ready the Destroyer, Neill continues to write and develop music and melodies with all members of the band.

An Orange County native, Aaron Cleall moved east to the California desert at the age of 12 where he picked up his 1st bass. He quickly immersed himself in the now legendary punk/stoner rock scene, playing with thrash punks "SCMT" throughout his teens. Aaron then moved to Chicago to help form the punk/indie rock band "Land of the El Caminos." Six years and 10,000 beers later, LOTEC played their last show. From their ashes, Aaron emerged transformed from a desert rat punk into a road savvy, seasoned veteran. After playing with a few notable bands, and not being asked to join the PGA tour, Aaron decided that it was time to find the band that he was meant to play with. The end of his search was realized upon joining "Ready the Destroyer". With his palpitation inducing bass lines and inbred punk styling he helps to complete the band's intensity and "tight as a frog's asshole" sound.

Nic was born and raised in Bolivia until he found his way to Chicago at the age of 15. There, he played and performed music for 5 years before joining Ready the Destroyer -- where the hard working, energetic, and enthusiastic drummer finally found a comfortable home. His driving beats, strong sense of dynamics and rhythmic structure are a perfect match for Neill's unique melodies and Aaron's earth-shattering bass lines. Nic brings more energy to RTD and contributes to the great working dynamics between all members.

Window Licker Records are very excited to have Ready The Destroyer on board and strongly encourage you to pick their latest release Through This Night.
