Hypnotic Dirge Records launches new Webstore

November 14, 2013

Hypnotic Dirge Records now has a brand new webstore with all kinds of new features which were missing from the previous format.

It should be MUCH easier to navigate through everything now, there is finally an "Add-to"Cart" feature, quantities are listed directly on the store, and as well as this 50 new titles were just added to the distro for the launch of the webstore today! [DISTRO UPDATE]

A new (and much less confusing) price system is now taking effect as well. $8 for a regular CD, $10 for a digipack, and $6 for an EP. Shipping is then calculated on top of that depending on your location.

We are still working on a few additions and improvements at this point but all of the items are listed on the store and it is fully functioning. The little that remains is non-essential stuff  which will be added in the coming weeks/months.

Use the discount code "HDR-SALE-2013" at the checkout to save 20% from the price before shipping! This sale will go on until next Friday November 22, 2013 as a way to launch the new store.

November 14, 2013
A new distro update has been made for the first time in over 4 months! It's been a really busy time and these distro additions have been sitting for a long time without an update. Finally it was decided that it wouldn't make much sense to do all the work on a distro update which was getting to be almost 50 new tittles in the old format again as a new webstore was being planned for construction soon, so the work would have to be done twice. Eventually it was decided to make the new webstore in...
