RELEASE DATE: 10/17/2025
VARIANT: White w/Pink Splatter Vinyl LP
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of THE RED CHORD’s sophomore release & Metal Blade Records’ debut, we are honored to make available for the very first time “CLIENTS” on vinyl. Pitchfork Magazine call “Clients” a “frenzied blast of uncompromising aggression that fuses the chaos, growling vocals and lightening-fast beats of death metal and grindcore with the technical prowess of experimental math- metal and the occasional driving, mid-tempo hardcore rhythm”. We couldn’t agree more. In cooperation with the founding members, the cover art and internal layout has been faithfully updated by original and acclaimed artist Paul Romano, to represent the band’s current vision of “Clients”. On the heels of a perfect 10 out of 10 review (the first for the magazine), Decibel Magazine nailed their assessment as “the Red Chord attained their success by throwing caution to the wind and taking their awesome songs and robust live show anywhere that would host ’em. Truth be told, it’s this quintet’s songs that have made the difference and caused their profile to explode”.
