LOMA PRIETA - "our ep is
your lp" (INKBLOT) - 5e,
300 den.
Epic and chaotic hardcore played at a breakneck, blistering pace.
Fans of Honeywell, Swing Kids & Neil Perry take note! |
 |
LOWPUNCH - "act... revolt... live"
(CHOOSE LIFE) 4e, 250 den.
By far the best Slovenian old school hc. Fast drumming, dancing rythms,
melodic guitars, strong pissed off vocals, sing-a-long choruses. With
one world - fantastic. It could be compared with Section 8. Nice booklet
with socialy aware lyrics and explanations. Contains 13 new hits plus
11old song from their long sold out demo. Hardcore classic… |
 |
LUNAR - "turbo" (MOON
LEE) - 4e, 250 den.
LUNAR's third full-length, and first for the Moonlee Records, is named
Turbo because that's how it sounds. Gigantic and great. An appropriate
title for mostly instrumental music which consists of dynamic and
propulsive rhythms interwoven with delicate guitars. Turbo is a sound
of wandering through nebula or a soundtrack for the solar eclipse.
Turbo is a mysterious space travel followed by a pleasant return to
Earth. |
 |
MADAME GERMEN - "discografia" (DIY
CONSPIRACY) - 6e, 350 den.
IIntense and depressive crust that combines aggression and emotion
in a magestic way. Similar to Uranus and Remains of the Day. |
 |
MAGGOTS - "dead and loving it"
(SCROTUM JUS) - 4e, 250 den.
Full discography ! Dutch gore grind like Impetigo |
 |
MAGRUDERGRIND/ SHITSTORM - split (FUCK
YOGA) - 5e, 300 den.
This 24-track, 22-minute blasterpiece showcases two of the most ferocious
newcomers to the grind/powerviolence scenes in many years. MAGRUDERGRIND
bring the scathing, thrash/crossover influenced grinding mayhem while
SHITSTORM terrorize with gruffer, speed/death metal-tinged destruction...
together creating one of the most abrasive split albums ever conceived.
With no direct mimicry, these two young trios manage to walk in the
same shoes worn by grind greats like DISCORDANCE AXIS and PIG DESTROYER,
both delivering absolutely pummeling performances with only the use
of guitar, drum and voice. That's right, no bass players are needed
for songs this short, fast and absolutely relentless... and no heavyness
is compromised with each band's best recordings to date and a fantastic
mastering job by West West Side. Top it all off with unbelievably
sick artwork from BARONESS' John Baizley, and you've got a split undeniably
destined for full-blown "classic" status. |

MALVEILLANCE "just fuck off"
(NEW SCREAM INDUSTRY + ) - 7e, 420 den.
"I fucknging love black metal in all of its different forms,
from ultra-abstract weirdness to hyperspeed blackened violence and
proggy, super complex black metal, but as someone who grew up immersed
in hardcore punk, one of my favorite sounds is that of punky, ravenous,
ridiculously distorted black metal, bands like Bone Awl, Akitsa, newer
Darkthrone, Ash Pool and the like. I can't get enough of this stuff,
and Maleveillance from Montreal is one of the best.
The earlier Malveillance albums were more along the lines of melancholic
black metal, but something happened between then and Just Fuck Off,
the 2006 album from Malveillance. This is where the music changed
completely into a stripped-down primitive blackcrust assault, all
atavistic hardcore riffing and overdriven distortion, rampaging D-beat
drums and scorched misanthropic screams. This album still fucking
kills - 22 tracks of feral and fucked up thrashing blackened violence,
ripping an unbelievable amount of power out of an economy of riffs,
most songs using two tops, just hammering it out over hypnotic Discharge-filtered-through-Darkthrone
thrash that lays wastes to everything. Awesome!" CRUCIAL BLAST
|
 |
MALVEILLANCE "l'appel du neant"
(NEW SCREAM INDUSTRY + ) - 7e, 420 den.
Brutal, minimalistic, skull-shredding noisecrust. Vicious, uber-atavistic
blackened scumpunk, along the lines of Bone Awl, Akitsa, Wold, Absurd
and Ildjarn - that's what you get on L'appel du Neant / Le Froid du
Nord, a collection of Malveillance's out-of-print cassettes: Le Froid
du Nord from 2005, and 2006's L'appel du Neant, both of which were
released on Harsh Brutal Cold Productions. Malveillance put their
own spin on that kind of blown out crusty savagery though, even more
punk rock and thrashing, simplistic mono-riffing blasted over and
over again, slathered in filth and distortion, pounded through trance
inducing repetition over pummeling D-beat, Discharge-style drums,
the vocals a feral screech. The recording for these cassettes is low-fi
and raw, but thick and gnarly and super aggro. Like how Akitsa are
like some blasted, blackened version of Oi!, Maleveillance are their
crusty hardcore punk cousins, fierce and fucked up. The weirdest thing
about this album is the whopping eight Ramones covers that are on
here, and one cover of "You're Tripping" by pop punk mainstays
The Queers! That might sound counterintuitive, but Malveillance takes
these pop punk songs and makes them their own, taking songs like "The
KKK Took My Baby Away" and "Commando" and "I Don't
Want To Be Learned" and douse 'em in distortion and speed and
venom, turning them into thrashing, evil blasts of super catchy necropunk.
Even the Queers song sounds totally insane filtered through Malveillance's
filth." |

ORTHRELM / BEHOLD...THE ARCTOPUS - split
(CRUCIAL BLAST) - 4e, 250 den.
This CDEP features a new, exclusive song each from New York tech/prog
metal wizards BEHOLD...THE ARCTOPUS and shred meltdown duo ORTHRELM,
overdosing the listener on spastic complexity and insane instrumental
prowess that will liquify your grey matter. Adorned in eye-blazing
original artwork from VOIVOD's Away.
Here's a review of the ORTHRELM/BEHOLD...THE ARCTOPUS split CDEP from
Decibel Magazine:
"There’s something inherently destructive and careless
in music like this. Both Behold… the Arctopus and Orthrelm stake
their reputations on disciplined improvisation, but the work itself
necessitates auto-destructive imperatives. Their elusive, dizzying
sound evokes Zorn’s work with Painkiller and Masada and is equally
reminiscent of Coltrane’s abandonment first of bebop, then the
matrix he developed with Giant Steps before venturing outward into
the spiritual impossibilities of modal jazz. Behold’s “PAINcave”
begins a dialogue between guitar and drums that culminates in a regurgitation
of what’s just been digested. Unlike Orthrelm, their use of
viscous sounds lubricates and combusts, taking a circuitous route
through dialogical syncopation, call and response, and load noise
intensity. Like Zorn’s work, it’s moody and agitated,
at once brooding and decisive, storming and wailing with purpose between
chromatic tantrums. Conversely, Orthrelm’s “Pithot 1”
abbreviates their 2005 ode to concentration, OV. A series of profound
declensions and cartoonish riffs, it scrawls a Mike Patton caricature,
then burns it in effigy. As much a song as a trigonometry lesson,
Orthrelm’s guitars and drums chase a parabolic rollercoaster,
cascading down asymptotic peaks with fearless elegance. Orthrelm draw
a smiley face on repetition, the hallmark of nightmare logic allowing
cat and mouse to lose meaning only to become a chicken or egg proposition
in which the cat’s left chasing its tail. Each generation is
more distorted, violent, and funny: as Tweety is to Sylvester and
as Tom is to Jerry is to Itchy is to Scratchy ad infinitum; or as
Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? playwright Edward Albee once
put it, “Good, better, best, bested.” |
 |
ORTHRELM - "ov" (IPECAC)
- 7e, 420 den.
"4th album from California's premier free-metal power duo.
Their music is an infectious blur of breakneck drumming and rapid
guitar interplay, continuously inventive and exceptionally impressive.
Mick Barr has achieved cult status as one of the best guitar players
anywhere! For Fans Of Cromtech, Flying Luttenbachers, The Locust,
Supersystem, Cattle Decapitation, Lightning Bolt, and Hella. On Mike
Patton's Ipecac imprint." |

OVERNOISE - lethal ways to hell's kitchen
(THRONE RECORDS) 4e, 250 den.
Blasting debut of this Spanish grindcore band in the vein of Nasum
and other top notch Swedish acts. |
 |
OVERPOWERING - cementerio de esperanzas (???)
4e, 250 den.
"This is about time and progress. In a back issue I did review
the demo from this band and remembered it was not bad but had better
chances for the future. However, the "Cementerio De Esperanzas"
album brings to mind everything from Enemy Soil to Shit On Command
to Blower ending on Agoraphobic Nosebleed - 2 piece lineup with obligatory
drum machine!!! Ultra speed grindcore attack with no metal influences
at all. Sometimes I feel Lack of Interest and Stapled Shut here and
there as well some midtempo heavy parts and Spanish vocals. Pretty
good grind record. You won't be disappointed." (Violence Zine) |

PHOENIX BODIES - "too much information"
CD+DVD (SHOVE) - 5e, 300 den. |
 |
POTOP - "channels" (IRON
PIG) - 5e, 300 den.
"Potop's debut album is also one of the first releases
from the newly-minted Iron Pig Records, a new offshoot label of Aurora
Borealis. As far as I understand it, Iron Pig is for all of the stuff
that is too ugly and mangy to be released on Aurora Borealis. Really...if
you consider that AB is the home to the crossover skum-metal of Villains,
the Lovecraftian ultradoom of Moss, and the skeletal backwoods black-folk
dirges of Wolfmangler, then what the fuck kind of ugliness is going
to have to be relegated to the cellar pit of Iron Pig?
I present to you...Potop.
Jesus. This shit is so negative, so anguished, it sounds like what
Eyehategod might sound like if their singer actually had a full blown
nervous breakdown in the middle of their set. The band hails from
Macedonia, and it turns out that one of the members is our buddy Ivan
who runs Fuck Yoga Records, one of the few Macedonian underground
metal labels and home to some killer releases from Iron Lung, Elodea,
and The Endless Blockade. That love of power violence is in full effect
with Potop, and the band channels the slowest, ugliest sludge possible
into narcotized dirges splattered with sickening feedback that drones
on and on and on, twisted slow motion riffs, pounding glacial drums,
occasionally blasting into short bursts of noisy, unstructured grind.
But it's the vocals, that intense, tortured wailing and shrieking,
a high pitched bloodflecked scream that oozes fear and horror and
despair...it's the vocalsn that elevate Potop's extreme sludge to
another level of seismic intensity, and I'd almost compare 'em to
the idiosyncratic suicidal shrieks of Silencer. Think Burning Witch,
Crossed Out, Eyehategod, Despise You, but more vile."

Death/thrash with Antimo (Ravager/ex-Disgorge) |
 |
PROTESTANT - "as dead as we look"
(HALO OF FLIES) - 4e, 250 den.
A bone crushing onslaught of raging thrash meets moody crust marks
this re-mixed and remastered collection of early works from Milwaukee's
PROTESTANT. Include are thier songs form their LP, their split 7"
with RHINO CHARGE and their 2005 demo CD-R. While PROTESTANT plays
what is easily catoegorized as what is now being called "Neo
Crust," their style is much less formulaic and reminds one of
the mid 90's pioneering days, when 2nd generation European crust bands
like AMBUSH, ABC DIABOLO and HIATUS were first pushing the style forward.
Another fine example of the renewed vigor that has energized the eastern
Wisconsin scene druing the last couple of years, after being delcared
officially dead in the late 90's and early part of this decade. If
you're picking up this disc, don't forget to pickup their new self-titled
7" EP too! |

 |
SAIRAAT MIELET - "controversial history"
(SIX WEEKS) - 7.5e, 450 den.
SAIRAAT MIELET was unabashedly the most hated band in Finland during
the late '80s and early '90s. Their outright disdain for their country's
addiction to alcohol led them to confront this national problem with
some of the most hard line straight edge hardcore ever made. This
earned them great animosity from their fellow punks, hence the title
of this compendium, now available for the first time on CD anywhere.
Let it be known, this is not Boy Scout youth crew drivel or mosh core
nausea. This is violent, fast hardcore played with amazing musicianship
belted out at lightning speeds (would it be on Six Weeks if it wasn¹t?)
with the most intense screaming vocals ever recorded (no hype, just
fact). This CD compiles both of their ultra-rare EPs (both limited
to 500 copies) from the early '90s with brand new artwork and liner
notes from the band and packages it in an awesome digipak gatefold
sleeve. |

Embalming Theatre, Ulcerrhoea, Mind Collage, Man In Shackles and three
additional tracks taken from Polar Grinder LP. 27 minutes of heavy,
ripping and ferocious Scandinavian grindcore madness with dual low/high
vocals, breakdowns, non-complex metal guitar riffs, crisp and clean
drums, and simply straight on hardcore brutality! |
 |
SCHIFOSI - "absentium existence"
(THRASH STEADY SYNDICATE) - 5e, 300
den.
Absentium Existence picks up where "ill winds from outopia"
and "half lit world" left off and carries on their legacy
of brutal epic melodic crust. Their best effort so far in songwriting
and production. These songs hauntingly linger long after listening.
For the uninformed, SCHIFOSI are from Australia and plays broodingly
dark heavy hardcore with female vocals. From the first tortured drum
beat this will have you grooving and dancing whilst crying about the
demise of mother earth. Totally morose lyrics completing the dark
music. An excruciating aural pummeling to complement the coming apocalypse. |

precise and explosive songs. Silencio shares some common ground with
the Flying Luttenbachers (longer, more composition oriented racket),
Naked City (genre switching, mind boggling, manic intensity) |

Skullflower, featuring some of the most searing, synapse scorching
droneworks that Matthew Bower (the man behind Skullflower, as well
as Sunroof!, Total, and The Hototogisu) hasunleashed to date, in our
humble opinion. Orange Canyon Mind is the follow up to 2002's awesome
Exquisite Fucking Boredom (Tumult Records), and continues that albums
utter mutation of stoned out riffs pulled taffy-like into eternity/oblivion
and star-rupturing blasts of sonic white light. Over the 8 tracks/60
minute running time, Bower and cohorts build massive horizontal drones
and melodic supernovas. Superb, beautiful, brain melting stuff. |

SKULLFLOWER - "tribulation"
(CRUCIAL BLAST) - 7e, 420 den.
"Skullflower are a solid block of noise, a massively distorted,
instrumental, feedback generator of sorts. Sounds swirl around in
a barage of reverberation, as guitars and bass drone on and on for
days. There aren't really any riffs per say, just orchesrated noise
with a squeal here and there. No vocals, no drums, just peaks and
valleys of hum. If you dig Sunn O))), these guys are for you. " |

SNOWBLOOD - "being and becoming"
(LAWGIVER/ SUPERFI) - 5e, 300 den.
The Scottish quartet's second release, and a quantum leap forward
from their debut The Human Tragedy. A full 68 minutes of epic Godspeed-esque
build-ups with crushing Neurosis-style payoffs, with much more in
the way of dynamics and a fluid flow between movements. |
 |
SNOWBLOOD - "the human tragedy"
(LAWGIVER/ SUPERFI) - 5e, 300
den.
Thou shall bang your head! Snowblood takes no prisoners with their
dirty sludgecore that sounds pretty fucking evil to me (and so is
the artwork from this CD. Must be the fog of Scotland). Do not expect
too much fancy and pretty parts like Isis or Switchblade, but a more
negative atmosphere reflecting doom and destruction. Neurosis and
Noothgrush come to mind. Overall Snowblood overwhelm not so much,
but creates uncomfortable tracks with a metallic background. Long
songs, but enough variation to keep you interested. |

SORE THROAT/ NEW YORK AGAINST BELZEBU -

SORE THROAT WITH 10 TRACKS OF TOTAL NOISE AND 26 BLASTING NOISE/GRINDCORE

SOUTHERN GUN CULTURE - "room 65"
(MONOTREMATA) - 5e, 300 den.
Like an uptempo, indie-rock ACID KING, or some sort of EYEHATEGOD
/ CLUTCH / DC post-hardcore hybrid with weirdly melodic vocals, SOUTHERN
GUN CULTURE debuts here with 8 tracks of dirty, downtuned, catchy
as hell indie sludge from Austin, TX. But where most mud pilots trudge
through repetitive riffery and little in the way of dynamics, SOUTHERN
GUN CULTURE incorporate some nicely spaced out improv psychedelia,
moaning feedback drones, the jazzier part of BLACK SABBATH 's back
catalog, some bitchn' brutal riffs, and freeform rock fuzzdom (hence
their upcoming EP on the UK avant/drone/free rock imprint RIOT SEASON),
all fronted by a mangy, off-kilter, but totally melodic dual vocals
from all three members, and an early 90's set of indie/alt rock sensibilities,
making parts of the album sound like early Smashing Pumpkins meets
Spirit Caravan , or Afghan Whigs and L7 jamming over super heavy Black
Sabbath dirge. We're not sure how deliberate the indie/alt rock thing
we're hearing was, but it's there and it's killer. Make no mistake
though, this is still definitely all about the heavy, rolling sludge
riffs and psyched out fuzz jams. |

SPACE ROBOT SCIENTISTS "we've got a
time machine" (ROKLOK) - 4e,
250 den.
Over the years music reviewers have gone to countless lengths to find
comparisons to Space Robot Scientists and have always come up short
handed. Yeah while they've gotten some of the influences right such
Public Image Limited, Wire, Devo and Atom and His Package it just
doesn't really do this unique trio justice. On the sophomore effort
from Space Robot Scientists there are sounds that revel in the angular
noisy post punk while others mingle in a electro-Clash dance music
playground. |

SPES EREPTA - "minutova terapie"
(REFUSE) - 5e, 300 den.
Political Vegan Straight Edge Hardcore Punk from Praha, Czech Republic.
Throughout the years members of the bands were active in several bands
like BALACLAVA, DREAD 101, EXEKUCE and X-WING and SPES EREPTA is a
result coming out of them and become outlet to their wide musical
interests and individuality. Their sound is perhaps more closer to
the bands like Victims or From Ashes Rise than to any typical sXe
hardcore band, and this is reflects their statement, DIY hardcore
punk spirit, and not following the trends and cliché –
as who said that views like straight edge or veganism have to be related
with certain sounds. You can go wrong with songs like "Distort
Praha"! Lyrically, Spes Erepta is outspoken politically band
who cares about important issues from veganism and animal rights,
to politics, anarchism, with strongly anti-fascist stance. Members
of the bands are active in several collectives and organisations and
their lyrics reflects their commitment and dedication..
Their first full length CD contains new songs as well as the songs
previously released on debut 7" and compilations. It contains
also spoken word "Abolitionism and anarchy in the protections
of animals" by Michal Kolesar from Realita.Tv organisation. |

EP, and their screaming self-tiled debut. Packaged with new artwork

SQUASH BOWELS - "love songs"
(LIFE STAGE) - 5e, 300 den.
Squash Bowels' album title "Love Songs", together with the
cheap, bloody artwork, betrays what you can expect: greasy grindcore!
Turn up the bass, and surrender yourself to thirty minutes of sick
vocals, groovy and brutal riffage, a thick pulsating bass-sound, and
pumping drums! This band is 200% goregrind and that's all we want.
If you see this one in the store, don't be misguided by the artwork
quality, but buy this fucker! It's a piece of goregrind excellence,
party guaranteed! |

THE BONDS - "not a phase"
(TUNED TO YOU) - 3.5e, 200 den.
Rather than sounding more aggressive/fast as bands like The First
Step or Carry On, The Bonds lean towards the melodic side of old school.
From song to song, they jump from melodic riff to another complimented
by Janic's screams. Also, Alex the drummer did a great job on the
layout. |

destruction" (NO ESCAPE) - 6e,

Israeli Doomsters The Knell is finally out! "Harm" has been
mastered by Greg Chandler (from Esoteric) and contains 7 tracks for
more than 50 minutes of heavy,obscure, thick and beefy Doom/Death
Metal. This album is not a tribute for the nineties and the glory
days of the genre, but a proof that Doom/Death is still kicking in
the twenty first century and even more relevant than ever. |
 |
THE LEGION OF DOOM/ MOTHERTRUCKER (CALCULON)
- 2.5e, 150 den.
"The Legion Of Doom take everything that was good with metal
in the first place, with shades of thrash, a sprinkling of complex
time changes and some punishing guitar work - plus these guys really
mean it and do it very, very well. Mothertrucker, meanwhile, take
a slightly different approach, and their two entries in this five-sing
EP come across like Sabbath-meets-post-rock, but much better than
that description sounds." |

THE NOW-DENIAL - "viva viva threatening"
(SABOTAGE) - 5e, 300 den.

The jaw-dropping first release from Boston's newest kings of extreme
music. Spanning all facets of death metal, hardcore and grind, The
Red Chord play a radically unique form of heavy music. Masterful experimentation
is displayed on this impressive introduction, with tempos ranging
from breakneck speed to all out pummeling breakdowns. Plenty of fret
board picking, double bass, blasts and sick drum fills to please all
the metal heads, along with some of the most brutal mosh parts ever
captured on magnetic tape, destined to ignite the pit dwellers into
a frenzy. The production on this is beyond top notch, making this
the debut to end all debuts. |
