In 2009, Hguols (pronounced "Fulse" ~ rhymes with Pulse) began as "MIDI Black Metal" with its full length debut release "Epitome". By 2010, the release was sold out / out of print. This special 2015 re-release of "Epitome" renamed "Redux Epitome" has swapped out the MIDI/computer sounds for multi layered KORG M1 Instruments. Because of the instrument lineup change, (and a few other changes to the songs) the genre of music has also changed to a (techno) Speedcore or Terrorcore sound. 10 tracks and 45 minutes of instrumental mayhem. This album is available as a Compact Disc release ONLY! Be sure to get this before its gone forever! The CD is $9 plus shipping. Only available here! hguols.bigcartel.com/product/hguols-redux-epitomeAn 8 minute preview of each track:

Thanks! I feel so nostalgic listening to it now. ...because this was the first album I completed when I got sober.

I used to always pronounce it "hoo-ghouls", so thats good to know. I will have to listen to the samples. I have actually looked at splittercore, speedcore etc and its pretty interesting although I've never really sat down and listened to any of that kinda stuff, so should be interesting exploratory mission through electronic music.

^I always thought it was pronounced the same too; thanks Thomas for clearing that up!
Hey Blake, those genres could prove to be fun elements to play with for your next recording! I could totally see it fitting well with the style you're creating.

Its not for everyone Ghoul. (hard to type your name because I've typed Hguols so many times) On the old hguols.com site I mentioned where the name came from and alluded to its pronunciation. I was in a goregrind band called Slough. (pronounced "Sluff") ....Hguols is Slough spelled (and pronounced) backwards.

These remixes are fantastic.
I used to think that Hguols was pronounced like H-gwalls (aych-gwalls).

Thanks!
Before I moved out of the area, I had a local friend 2009-2010 that pronounced is "Ha-Gools!", and of course, he would put a "dying samurai"'s amount of emphasis on the pronunciation.
People on the Blabberboard used to call it/me Huggles. I was cyber-hugging everyone in a lot of posts because of that.

I'm going through a different "vendor" to make CDs. While it doesn't have all the perks (inserts/jewel cases/shrink wrap) that DiscMakers does... ...at least it doesn't have dirty employees that leak music to blogs and torrents.
To answer your question, pressing is "on demand", so theoretically - unless I choose to make it unavailable, which I very well may do someday - I could press as many as were requested.

Wow, I'm pretty late to the party here.
I'm excited about this!
