(January)
well we're two-deep into the new year and still nothing isn't terrible. my area got a hobo corpse-load of snow, fuck-you-money oldheads are physically incapable of sealing shut their prick-picklers about cAnCeL cUlTuRe, and in general we're all marinating in the scumhole moisture on the underside of the bedrock.
but hey whatever, here's my favorite teases of the month (non-Clips4Sale division)
SANCTIONED - Annexation
the Aussies have it again.
HALLUCINATION - s/t
like Convictions and Vegas battle-scoring an Elias Merhige film.
GAS CHAMBER / BLACK IRON PRISON - Public Humiliation II
definitely will be spending a lot of time with this one.
EARLY WAR - Cageshi, Richard.
DEATHNOISEFREQUENCY - Horrid Dirge
a gradually decompressing silo of stratified sewer mold eventually reaches the dimensions of a bursting omni-colored sun.
if i ever get my music shit together again, the next band is ripping this shit off hard.
the Derailment stuff reminded me that my jive-ass never checked out THUG before.
i can't quit this style of DM.
ahhh those high-vocals get me every time.
most of the bands in the powerviolence genre tend to forget two crucial ingredients:
1. Power
2. Violence.
not this crew.
TFW bands who aren't Integrity worship sneak Integrity parts into their piece.
looming predator moments in a hailstorm of black soot.
on that High Command / Devil Master trip.
"but who is being entertained?"
really glad to see one of my favorite NY bands is still kicking it. really looking forward to the rest of this one.
"It Seems So Foolish - These Sparse Statements of Desolation"
on that Assuck, Avulsion trip (don't tag me, grindbro)
rolling through a wind tunnel beneath a tough-love camp in a steel garbage pail.
fuck the triggering. fuck the triggered. only pure sleaze from now on.
GARUDA - Immemorial
i remember Lee snagging me a copy of the first GARUDA album "Cold Wired Sentiment" about 15 years ago. since then, Garuda has always found its way onto my list of favorite "one-and-done" bands. well i guess i can knock them off that list, cause late last year they dropped their follow-up release. much like this blog, doesn't seem like anyone can be bothered to check it out.
