Here at Ulja Factory we are not just into putting out great music. We are all about filling people in on what we can dig up from around the world that we think is great underground art, music, and video. Starting monday all of the factory kids are entering the game and posting content and comments on the art and music we love, even stuff we don’t put out. We love the scene and we back it no matter what. So this week we are filling in all the gaps on the site. Soon we are going to have the local action section filled out in droves where you can see what all our friends are into so you can be in the know about the underground music and art community that makes its way weirdly, and awkwardly into our hearts, much the same as Ed Wood has done for me with his cinematic genius. Nothing says lovin like a cashmere sweater.

We are starting up the BIBLIOTHÈQUE so all of our entertaining words that grace this page will be archived for the future humans to shake their lobster like hands/claws at the screen while they force feed their exit only with ranch flavored chitterlings.

Fixing up the band section to reflect the proper information on present bands working with us. Plus increasing the amount of info media and just plain good on the band pages. We are also rocking out our press page so you can see what other people have to say about us and the music.

Last but not least in the coming weeks we are opening up our store and taking pre-orders on the albums we feel grateful we get to bring all of you. Also about the great deals you are only going to get one place. Ulja Factory!

Huntington, West Virginia – Nov 15, 2009 – The Wizards of Ghetto Mountain a Huntington, West Virginia based band signed a contract with Ulja Factory after weeks of negotiation between the company and the band. The Wizards of Ghetto Mountain are a band that is hard to categorize as far as a sound. They mix a drone/stoner metal sound with noise, and a hint of prog to wrap up the project neatly.

The Wizards will have a free download of their demo in the coming weeks, also check out their video for “Sabbothiom’s Ascent” in our media section.

Ulja Factory is proud to present the new Peoples Temple Youth Group EP The Slavery of Love as a free download. The People’s Temple Youth Group is the solo project of engineer, producer, and visual/installation artist Darrell Sarka Workman. The People’s Temple Youth Group started out as a way for Darrell to experiment with sound. His idea is to take elements of Proto-Punk, Post Punk, Art Rock and Noise to produce a sound similar to the No-Wave movement of the 80’s with a late 70’s pop appeal. The strong influence of Television, The Modern Lovers, Velvet Underground, Psychic T.V., Gang of Four, The Vaselines and Sonic Youth can be heard throughout the full release scheduled to hit stores in Jan of 2010. Though The People’s Temple Youth Group strays greatly from Darrell’s origins in noise and free rock, it still contains elements of both and is an album produced to cross boundaries. Featuring many of Workman’s home built oddities, such as dual oscillators and his Fisher Price Electric Piano. The album was primarily produced and recorded in Darrell’s Seattle based studio over several years when not touring.

Darrell’s talents can also be heard as a member of The New Deconstruction(Sleep Dep Records), The Art of Poverty(Ulja Factory), and Ladybird.

Norman, Oklahoma – July 10, 2009 – Previously signed with Ascetic Records, Negative Negative, the Oklahoma based noise-rock band formerly known as Gravity Propulsion System, signs with the up-and-coming Pittsburgh record label, Ulja Factory Records.

Owner of Ulja Factory, Darrell Sarka Workman, said this of Negative Negative’s new membership with Ulja Factory, “I like to compare Negative Negative to my favorite drink, blueberries and gin. The first time I heard them, my ears both revolted and rejoiced at the sonic assault of their thrashing guitars, and a voice comparable to the war-cries of angels in a skyward battlefield, eternally at war with themselves, much like blueberries and gin.”

Negative Negative’s album will be slated for release in late October, 2009.

We are happy to say the new site is up and almost fully functional. In the past few days, we have pulled down our front page and opened our doors to a media starved public. We will be posting new media all the time now and hope everyone comes around to check it out. We are adding a couple of pages on too that may need some explanation. The local action section is a section of the site we are reserving for material we are reviewing and bands we like, there should be a lot of cool stuff being put into that section such as tour dates, media and music.
