Tyranny of Mother Fucking Shaw

So finally I am posting again. It's been a fucking minute. But what I'm posting today makes the wait oh so worth it.

TYRANNY OF SHAW! For those of you that haven't heard this stuff... well... you lose. Ha! But you will win once you hear this shit.

Tyranny of Shaw is, in my opinion, one of the BEST metalized hardcore bands EVER.(Their greatness is only exceeded by the masters of the genre, CONVERGE.) They take influence from a myriad of bands (Helmet, Assück, Discordance Axis, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Reversal Of Man, Infest, Napalm Death, Converge, Quicksand, Us3, old Metallica), of which creates the best hybrid sound I've ever heard. Tyranny of Shaw existed from 2001 - 2004 and should appeal to fans of screamo, deathmetal, grind, chatotic metalcore, and anyone interested in avant garde experimental hardcore shit!

Members went on to play in Bulldagger, Capsule (I'll have to upload some capsule, because they fucking slay!), Field, Maruta, Mehkago N.T., Monarcs, Shitstorm (one of my favorite grind bands!), and Torche.

Anyways I've collected 14 tracks:
(their whole discography aside from the tracks featured in the "Mutation" comp which I posted earlier)

8 tracks from the Landmine Youth Camp EP
2 from the Phoenix Bodies Split
4 from the Stars in Camouflage EP

I bundled them all together because I figure that it'll be easier for fans. Seeing as finding some of their material was pretty tedious. (Most of the work done to track down these songs was by my pal Dillon. Go to his Tyranny of Shaw myspace fan page and tell him thanks a million and that Hanus sent you. ha.)

3.Attack of the Dirtflies (4am and Hot as Hell)
4.Have You Ever Met a Cyclops?
5.Landmine Youth Camp

Haha, dude this rules. I grew up with these kids and used to go watch them play. What's interesting is some of the songs you have were released over 2 little mini cds with spray paint art. i wish i still had em, because they would be cool to post. They always fucked up my cd player though..anyway, you might also want to include Tunes for Bears to Dance To and Maruta as some of the offshoot bands. It's also interesting that the tracks you have represent 2 different vocalists through out the history of the band.
