HOT DOG WATER BONDAGE: March 2021

(February)

Who Is KIRITSIS?

find out this summer.

things are looking/

SCATMOTHER - Vivikta

"labyrinths of concrete and acid"

PORTRAYL OF GUILT - We Are Always Alone

this one took some time to hit me, but when it did it did. i also like that their initials spell out the word "POG".

MUCOPHAGUS - Demo 1

the music sounds the way the name looks.

COSCRADH - Mesradh Machae

off to a good start

HALLOWED BUTCHERY - Deathsongs from the Hymnal of the Church of the Final Pilgrimage

if Primitive Man wrote an album for the angry hippie simp from Mandy.

PERTURBATOR - Lustful Sacraments

still manages to hold my attention where most other projects in this genre have begun to leave me cold.

SLEEPWALKER - Noc Na Krayu Sveta

still filling that Birushannah shaped hole in my heart.

HALLUCINATION REALIZED - Agency Denied

keeps getting better.

RUDIMENTARY PENI - Great War

shadow out of time

CARCINOMA - Labascation

a bit like Succumb maybe?

STRUGGLING HARSH IMMORTALS - 4 Death

i know all the crate-boring nerdos lunged at the Zouo reissue, but i gotta say i get more out of this post-Zouo project.

LANDFILL - Landfill X Developer

i low-key despise it when bands defer to "Untitled" for track names, but i can't maintain hostilities too long when you coming at me with the something that sounds like a cross between Enemy Soil and Custodian.

SAIDAN - Jigoku- Spiraling Chasms of the Blackest Hell

tasteful blends.

OLD NICK - Curse of the Lock Master / Witch of the Northern Vill

sounds like Dead Raven Choir rehearsing in an abandoned Toys R Us. dumb as fuck but i like it.

WORLD PEACE - Come and See

another new power violence band that remembers the crucial components of "power" and "violence".

VEGAS - Recovery

really have come a ways away from their Integrity clone infancy. really should get more attention.

HIDE - Interior Terror

"drink dirty water / be defiled"

UNCONDITIONAL - Suffocating in Black Tar

new project from the Miscarriage camp.

NIGHT WAR - Perversity of War Science

best d-beat i've heard in a while.

FANGE - Pantocrator

when Tommy End shows up in AEW (or maybe even MLW to feud w/ Mil Muertes like in my Lucha Underground fan-fic), Fange should be playing him out to the ring.

GRISHKA - I

hope when they crossover into the realm of physical media i'll be able to snag them shits without having to pay crack-sucking Gulch prices.

SLAUGHTER STRIKE - Winter's Agony

maybe the most overlooked corner of the Endless Blockade Expanded Universe (isn't a universe always expanding, though?)

KILLING FROST - The Declaration of W.W.

no doubt that Lee Altomare (RIP) would be bombing my inbox with this one. if it sounded like Celtic Frost or Motorhead or Bolt Thrower or Poison Idea or Celtic Idea or Motorthrower or Poison Frost or Bolt Head or Celtic Motor or Poison Bolt or Bolt Motor or Headthrower or Frost Thrower or Celtic Head or Poison Motor or Ideahead or Poison Thrower or Motoridea or Frost Motor or Bolt Frost or Frost Idea or Idea Bolt or Sheer Terror, Lee was tossing it my way.
