Idiot Talk - s/t

Fast and catchy as fuck garage rock/punk.

Beast In The Field - The Sacred Above, The Sacred Below

A towering slab of evil-as-fuck instrumental doom.

Variations on a Theme

I haven't been listening to much lately besides fuzzed out psych-doom trips ascending towards the firmament, so here you go.

best whatever of whatever

Streetlight Manifesto - The Hands That Thieve. This record is perfect. Fuck you.


Forest Swords - Engravings. This record is perfect. Fuck you.


Jungbluth - Part Ache. This record is damn near perfect. Fuck you.


Inquistion - Obscure Verses for the Multiverse. This record is damn near perfect. Fuck you.


Mammoth Grinder - Underworlds. There's nothing wrong with this record. Fuck you.


Church of Misery - Thy Kingdom Scum. There's nothing wrong with this record. Fuck you.

Nistikko - Kehä

Thrashy, crusty goodness.

Domovoyd - Oh, Sensibility

Space doom.

Beaten To Death - Dødsfest!

Grind with some cool melodies and an odd guitar tone.

I - OVFTM

Riffs.

WN - S

New. Good.

The Coltranes - Man With The Hat

Noisy, grimy punk rock. Great vocals.

Sokushinbutsu - Holy Ground EP

Grinding death metal.

Boris - Pink

This is a fucking great album. There's nothing more to say.

Thou Art Lord - The Regal Pulse of Lucifer

Thrashy black metal.

Cheap Art - Desocialized

Raw, pissed off powerviolence.

Needles - three 7"s

So far as I know, the entire recorded output of this hardcore "supergroup." Ripping old school hardcore punk, members of Limp Wrist, Look Back And Laugh, and a bunch of other bands I haven't heard of.

Punch - Push Pull

It's been a busy week, so here's one of my favorite records. Punky powerviolence.

Prepare for the Mindscan - s/t ep

Relentless mechanistic grindcore.

Lord Snow - Solitude

Chaotic screamo/emoviolence. Brutal vocals. Very 90s.

Cloudkicker - Subsume

Epic instrumental metal/post rock/whathaveyou. More riffs, less ambient than his past couple albums.

Siberian Hell Sounds - s/t

Bands, the best way to get me to post your demo is to make it rad as fuck. Shredding and heavy music hanging out at the intersection of grind, crust, hardcore, and powerviolence.

L'État C'est Moi - Anglophone en Tabarnack

They play that unholy combination of ska and crust known as crack rock steady.

Of Feather And Bone - False Healer

Grimy, dark hardcore. Dat bass tone.

Stripmines - Crimes of Dispassion

Straight ahead punky hardcore.

Svffer - s/t 7"

Brutal hardcore/grind/powerviolence. Looking forward to more material.

Subrosa - More Constant Than The Gods

New record from the classiest band in metal. Excellent doom with heavy emphasis on strings and multiple female vocalists.

Chronocide - The Solitude of Man

Destructive blackened grind.

APMD - NVTN

Heavy. Angry.

Bossk - .1

More or less the apotheosis of the mid-00s post metal explosion, as far as I'm concerned.

Cursed - I

Your irregular reminder that Cursed is better than your favorite band.

Impalers - Impalers

Raw, relentless d-beat and crust.

CoM - TKS

It's criminal how little attention this album seems to be getting. Fucking heavy bluesy doom metal with incredibly brutal vocals. Maybe their best album so far.

No Fealty - In the Shadow of the Monolith

Crusty, heavy hardcore out of Copenhagen.

Ramming Speed - Doomed To Destroy, Destined To Die

Surprised I haven't seen this around all that much. Great crossover.

Wiccans - Field II

More stuff I passed on the first time around for some reason. Awesome, catchy punk rock that takes the traditional sound in a new direction.

Alpinist - Lichtlaerm

The new Jungbluth inspired me to try these guys again. I now have no idea why I didn't really like them the first time I heard them.

Forest Swords - Engravings

Good weird shit. DMCA takedown QQ

Mammoth Grinder - Underworlds

It's about damn time. Relentless deathcrustsludge.

Deathrite - Into Extinction

That one band that somehow manages to sound exactly like Cursed, All Pigs Must Die, Trap Them, Black Breath, and The Secret all at the same time.
I'm still enjoying the hell out of it, of course.

Asymmetric Warfare - Asymmetric Warfare

Crusty as fuck punk with more than a little metal mixed in.

Jungbluth - Part Ache

Everyone got this, right?

O - E|A

Back for a bit. There are 15-20 submissions in my inbox. I'm probably not going to listen to any of them. Sorry. This is good, probably better than their first. I've been jamming it a lot lately.

Lifeformed - Fastfall: Dustforce OST / breaktime

Dustforce is an infuriating yet lovely little game on which I have spent quite a few hours of my life, and it has one of my favorite soundtracks. Enjoy.

On that note, I will have to be taking a break from blogging for a bit. I will be without reliable access to a computer or internet for the next several months. There might be a sporadic post here and there, but for the most part this blog will be on hiatus until my life is a little more settled. Thanks for reading.

Engineer - Reproach

A sludgy and slightly mathy wall of sound. Before they got famous.

Wreck and Reference - C̶o̶n̶t̶e̶n̶t̶ 7"

Heavy. Weird.

Cursed - II

Hey, this record is still good.
