Morbid Curiosity Update! + More

Whats up, I'm just updating this to keep track of some music-related stuff that's going on right now.  I haven't updated any new stories because for the last week and a half or I've been putting a lot of work into my bands.  So, for anyone who may care, here's the current deal:
Morbid Curiosity, quite possibly the most awesome underground Long Island band ever, is going to be putting out two releases in the near future.  The first is a full length album, temporarily called The Fuckin Full Length! with eleven new songs.  The second is a collaboration with long time friend and musically inclined person Anthony Capozzi, which will consist of six songs from the full length reworked with his lyrics and vocal tracks.  For anyone who may not know, MC is a band I formed around four years ago originally based on a basic grind/thrash sound with blastbeats, samples, and plenty of vocal effects (think Mortician, GUT and the like).  We (I) have progressed to a sound which blends elements of punk, thrash metal, and death metal.  For those lucky enough to have heard MC's only other release (the 2006 demo, Fucked Apart) you can expect to hear better quality on all fronts: production, vocals, riffs, songwriting, themes, ect.  As Anthony (hopefully) is working on the artwork for the collaboration album, I will now reveal the (possible) album art for this monumental full-length release:
 
The temporary front cover for the full length.
 
 
Temporary back cover.

In other one-man band news, Of Earth, a black/doom projected I started last year will be releasing its debut album, Elixir.  It will have 4 longer songs (think 10 songs shoved into four tracks that probably don't transition very well) and one ambient piece.  This band has (might have) the modern pagan/black sound inspired by nature, Drudkh, Askival, Agalloch, ect.

Both of those photos were taken Ireland in case you were wondering. 
Anywho, all three of the aforementioned releases will be available for free download.  However, I will be making complete packages with an actual CD(-R), jewel case, and inserts with art and lyrics.  If you want one of those let me know.  These will also be free, but I am sure you will sell them on Ebay for plenty of dough sooner or later.

So sick. I checked this from a computer in my Athens hostel so when you use the URL bar this will show up in the history. International attention. Sick Ireland photos too.
