Yaphet Kotto - The Killer Was In The Government Blankets LP/CD


Ebullition #43

LP version SOLD OUT

Available on LP and CD

Originally hailing from Santa Cruz, California Yaphet Kotto come forth with their first 12" release. Their music is perfectly suited to Ebullition. If Yaphet Kotto would have existed four years ago then they would have been playing with Policy of 3, Iconoclast, and Current. Great emotive hardcore with a duel guitar and vocal attack.

Mag played guitar in Bread & Circuits, Casey did a tour as the Good Clean Fun guitarist, and Scott also plays drums for Heart of Snow.

Yaphet Kotto is now based in San Francisco, California.

There were 1,000 pressed on green vinyl

Ebullition #49

SOLD OUT

This amazing Northern California emotive hardcore band has once again crafted a full length of powerfully intense and melodic songs to charm your body into a gyrating flurry of motion. The two guitar, duel vocal sound is relentless and pulsating with energy and emotion. A total of ten tracks packaged in a beautiful gatefold jacket with a design reminiscent to their last 12" record. A great record.

There were 125 pressed on blue vinyl.
There were 525 pressed on white vinyl.
There are also two different sets of labels.

Yaphet Kotto - We Bury Our Dead Alive LP/CD


Ebullition #56

Available on LP and CD

For seven years Yaphet Kotto has been unleashing a torrent of melodic power fashioned from a dual guitar attack, hammering drumming, and a passionate duel vocal approach. We Bury Our Dead Alive is Yaphet Kotto's third full length LP, and these ten songs are once again inspired, emotionally charged, melodic and hard hitting. Unlike many bands, time has not mellowed Yaphet Kotto. Their new material is tighter, heavier, and harder than ever before. Excellent.

Scott is once again playing drums, and their sound is tighter and heavier than ever before.

The LP is packaged in a full color LP jacket with a 12 page 7"x7" booklet.

The CD is packaged in a full color gatefold CD jacket with a 12 page 5"x5" booklet.
