For the first time ever, "Shelter" from Crawlspace is available on CD presented exactly the way it was meant to be. Newly remastered by Alex Mihm at Noble Savage, you'll hear this foundational piece of history like you've never heard it before.

In the exact words of guitarist Nate Shumaker, "Everdown was Crawlspace." The four song EP "Shelter" is a sort of prelude to what was to come from one of Tooth & Nail's early artists. The band's debut album, "Sicken," was the 17th release from the then up-and-coming indie label. On top of that, they were only the fourth "hardcore" group to be signed to the label. Focused, Unashamed, and The Blamed paved the way for them.
 

Crawlspace could be lumped into the same category as those other heavier Tooth & Nail bands (which would later usher in an imprint that focused solely on that broad "genre" classification - Solid State Records), but they brought something different to the table than the metal-tinged hardcore of Focused and Unashamed or the straight-up hardcore punk vibes of The Blamed. Crawlspace leaned into their influences of Helmet, Stompbox, Clutch, and other "aggro" bands to create something all their own.

"There was no Christian hardcore scene in New England at the time. We were it. So when we started to shy away from playing church basements, we were on our own to figure it out. It was these songs that put us on the map. We got to play shows all over the northeast with bands that sounded like us - Sam Black Church, Stompbox, Only Living Witness, Life Of Agony, Wargasm, Earth Crisis, Sheer Terror, Converge, Slapshot, and Souls At Zero... Little did we know that there was a lot of bigger things to come. ['Shelter'] found it’s way to the ears of Brandon Ebel at the new label, Tooth & Nail Records. Without these four songs, none of it would have been possible. It is a document of us and I’m still proud of it," stated Crawlspace / Everdown guitarist Nate Shumaker. 

"Shelter" from Crawlspace is available to purchase and stream now via The Charon Collective right here. It is also available on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and other outlets. Choose where you can buy or listen right here.
