First of all,

EXHIBIT A):

This "Darkness Hath No Boundaries" comp CD is false

1). Southern Lord no longer has Xasthur to offer (or exploit)

2). It's not an exclusive track

3). Perhaps the most important, this track was NOT approved by the band when it was 'remastered' horribly!

4). Once again, done behind bands back in order to continue trying to make a buck off of, just about as low as Moribund

1). Vocalist offered nothing

2). again, done behind band's back

3). again, SL trying to cash in off a band that had already parted ways with them.

4). Once again, this label has absolutely NO respect for their artists.

EXHIBIT C):

Band (Xasthur) given 10 cd's and 5 LP's of Black One after this fraudulent label uses bands contributions (to "jam" with) to help sell over 20,000 copies.
