"TAS - ...alivl" LP LIVE IN THE WEBSHOP AUGUST 1ST!

Heads up for those of you savy enough to check the blog. The LP goes up for sale at 7AM EST on Saturday.

🚨IMPORTANT NOTE🚨 DO NOT order more than 1 of each item or your order will be CANCELED. This means you can order 1 of each of the 3 things below BUT only 1 Vincent Vomit set, L or XL, NOT BOTH. You have been warned.

1. THE ACACIA STRAIN "...and life is very long" LP
   Drop the needle and destroy your room. Finally on vinyl, the debut album from The Acacia Strain. Long before anyone even dreamed of pissing of Vincent by pigeonholing them as  "deathcore," these kids were busy blending hardcore, tech-metal, and sheer noise into something gnarly, heavy, and beautiful.
   This isn't your standard punk rock meets hardcore. With a three-guitar assault and a rhythm section engineered for maximum damage, it’s a firebomb in technical heaviness inspired by bands like Coalesce and Dillinger Escape Plan. It’s groovy, it’s chaotic, and the breakdowns are intended to snap necks. Ten tracks guaranteed to take you places you’ve only seen in nightmares. $30
2. THE ACACIA STRAIN "...and life is very long" VINCENT VOMIT LP & T-SHIRT SET
   Limited to just 24 bundles (12 L and 12 XL). Get a completely unique, one-off LP that looks as if it came from the bowels of Vincent's stomach after a bad burrito. Pressed using multicolored vinyl refuse. This exclusive set also includes a premium black with gold ink "throwback" tee. Printed on tailored, 100% ring-spun Bella Canvas cotton, the breathable discharge print gives it an instant, ultra-soft retro vibe. $65
3. THE ACACIA STRAIN "...and life is very long" ULTIMATE COLLECTOR SET
   Ultra-Limited Edition...only 6 Sets available! Grab the green vinyl LP with exclusive "splattered" and numbered jacket to match the toy, an "unapproved" original throwback tee (purple and gold), and a hyper-exclusive hand painted Apalala toy. Toys are made in Japan and custom painted in the USA. They feature marbled green & glow-in-the-dark vinyl. Out of the 6 total, the standard 4 toys have green, red, brown, tan, and metallic pink paints, yellow glass eyes, a gold ear ring, and a blood-splatter finish. The 2 chase figures have green, red, brown, tan, and metallic pink paints, red glass eyes, a gold nose ring, and a slime-splatter/blood-splatter finish. "X'ed" up hands as a nod to Vincent.
   Sets are sold at random. Each includes stickers and a header card signed by Vincent (The Acacia Strain) with a one off custom message. The toys are numbered and double signed on the foot by Vincent and Toby (Devils Head).
   NOTE: The reason these t-shirts are "unapproved" is because the ink did not come out as opaque as was intended. We switched shirt brands to resolve the issue so the ink on these is lighter and more inconsistent in tone that the shirts that were sold as the pre-order. Available in M, L, XL, XXL and XXXL. INCLUDE YOUR SIZE IN THE NOTES field when placing your order. Any orders with size not included will be fulfilled at DHP discretion and you CANNOT exchange it later. $135

The Widowmaker One Offs

I've got The Acacia Strain on the brain after just placing the order for the throwback shirts. I finished up a pair of Apalala one offs and decided to name them The Widowmaker "A" and The Widowmaker "B" in honor of the band. Look for them at "The Glow Show VI" at the Clutter Gallery in Beacon, New York. The opening reception will take place on Friday, Feb 20th, 2026. Info below if you are in the area.

AdamD (酔 獣) Exclusives This Month in CA

Some new AdamD (酔 獣) toys will be hitting Adam's home state of California for the "Rocktober" art show at the Gallery of Hermosa. If you live in CA, be sure to stop by. Both unique 1:1 handpaints, and unpainted toys of various colors will be available for purchase.

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - “Rocktober” A Group Art Exhibition Celebrating the Raw Power of Rock in All Its Forms

Hermosa Beach, CA – October 18, 2025 – Gallery of Hermosa is proud to present “Rocktober,” a dynamic new group exhibition opening October 18, 2025. The show celebrates the strength, resilience, and raw beauty of rock in all its forms. Whether as music that moves generations, stone that shapes our earth, or cultural symbols that ground our shared history.

Bringing together a diverse lineup of painters, illustrators, sculptors, photographers, and mixed media artists, Rocktober explores how “rock” resonates across time and disciplines. Each artist interprets “rock” through their own lens: some honor music’s rebellious spirit, others look to the geological foundations beneath our feet, while still others explore rock as metaphor—representing strength, memory, and transformation.

The exhibition is guest juried and curated by John Geldbach of DDR Projects, a respected curator and gallerist based in Long Beach. Geldbach is known for championing contemporary and emerging artists. Through DDR Projects, he has built a reputation for thoughtful exhibitions that connect community, culture, and creativity.

A special appearance will also be made by Mike Longacre of Mike’s Guitar Parlor in Hermosa Beach, who will be at the opening reception. He founded Mike’s Guitar Parlor in 2014 and has built a loyal following among local musicians through his repair, customization, and retail services.

• Saturday, October 18, 2025
• 5pm – 9pm
• Gallery of Hermosa: 138 Pier Avenue, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254

VALENTINE'S DAY 2025 SURPRISE

DHP has fallen into a pattern of having HELL-O-WEEN be the big toy release event each year. That hasn't changed, but this year an opportunity popped up to team up with some talented folks - (BOOM!) and (BOOM!!) - who are also old school collector's, customizer's and maker's in their own right.
