Crippling Fear - Demo 2010

This band hit me up like 2 months ago through e-mail and asked me to post their demo. So here it is. These young gun are playing some raw grinding hardcore. Shit has hints of newer noisier dissonant chugging hardcore countered by raw as fuck punk grind. Kind of has a Spoonful of Vicodin vibe if they were a little bit into As the Sun Sets as well as Toxic Narcotic for some reason... Yea I dig it.

Obliteration - This is Tomorrow

Obliteration is a pretty fucking sick Hardcore band from Boston, Massachusetts in 2008 (I think, regardless they are pretty new). They have members of Knife Fight and Mind Eraser, arguably, two pretty gnarly bands. Their sound is something like a mix between Discharge style d-beat worshipping Motorhead and Doom somewhere in the Midwest hardcore scene circa 1985. Needless to say, it's fucking good shit. Would fit well into a collection of somebody who is a fan of Havoc Records. Very addicting.

PS: Thanks Sam, you always hook it up with solid hardcore!!!

LUDICRA - Another Great Love Song

Alright, sorry it's been a while since I've last posted. But you know, life happens; blah blah blah.

Here today I present to you... LUDICRA. Such a sick fucking band. And chronically overlooked. These guys and girls (yes girls) play some really sick no bullshit Black Metal with Crust tendencies. This is just bleak misanthropic crusty black metal minus the satan, synth, and tree hugging shit. Not that there is anything wrong with those things, but black metal is supposed to be simple and straight forward and we all know it. They play in the style of Bethlehem, Darkthrone, and Gorgoroth... Just unfettered depression and hatred of society. Ludicra are from San Francisco and this record was released on the notorious Alternative Tentacles Records. They've released other records on Life is Abuse records as well, and that is record label responsible for many great bands. (Filth, Dystopia, Blatz, etc.) SO that should get you interested. I think a lot more people should be into this band!

Nausea - Punk Terrorist Anthology Vol. 1

Uh. Nausea was a crust punk band, a really influential one at that. If you don't already know that... I'm a little ashamed to be in your e-presence.

Shit ton of shit mega post

Holy smokes... it's been almost 2 months since I last updated! Sorry about that my loyal minions. Here's a mega post for all you filthy heathens. All essential listens for your obscure skulls.

Benümb - By Means of Upheaval

22 songs of grind as fuck rage. Grind for the punks and metal heads. They have that west coast Cali power violence vibe going on a bit too.

Destroy - Discography

I used to listen to this album all the time in like 2006, great crust grind shit from the late 80's - early 90's. These guys are legendary. The good Felix Havoc was in this band before Code 13 and before starting Havoc Records. This is a collection of all their releases aside from their demo if I'm not mistaken. I suggest all you crusties, grinders, and even death metal fans buy this album, it's worth the money; the booklet that comes with the CD has the lyrics to all 48 songs which are killer.

Floor - s/t

So Floor is the precursor to the now semi-popular band Torche. A lot of people like Torche, but you know, Floor fucking destroys anything Torche does. Anyways, Floor could be described as a sludge or doom band with pop sensibilities. They are super heavy but the clean vocals make it so even a contemporary music fan could possibly enjoy it. Anyways this is one of my favorite albums of all time. Get it.

GET IT GET IT GET IT

Severed Head of State - No Love Lost

Severed Head of State is killer. This release has three original songs and a cover of CoC's "Prayer". They play hardcore/crustcore. This album is dreary as fuck and really brutal. Good listen.

I have a present for you

Painkiller - Guts of a Virgin/Buried Dreams

Painkiller is another one of John Zorn's bands. It's like if Naked City was even crazier if you can even comprehend that... It's like all the most maniacal parts of Torture Garden. Some tracks are micro songs, some are like 8 minutes. Sometimes it drones out, sometimes it blasts. All you need to know is jibberish, bass, saxaphone, blasts, and feed back are highly apparent here. Also, Mick Harris of Napalm Death fame does drums and some vocals on this release. That should be enough to get you interested.

Download me, I demand you

Suppression - Release the Piranha

Suppression are a noisey 2-man usually power violence-ish band. On this release they play more in the vein of noise rock with hardcore shit. Really groovin, really noisy, and really fun. I got this album from Robotic Empire but I think you can get it from Relapse too, I suggest you purchase it.

Wadge - Road to Hana

Wadge is Canada's answer to Agoraphobic Nosebleed. They aren't a total rip off of them and I think they've actually both been around for the same amount of time. I originally heard Wadge on a comp called "Drum Machine Madness" and didn't think much of them honestly... But once I heard this album I was pretty impressed. It's good stuff and I can't even really call it cyber-grind, its more like hardcore/crustgrind with a drum machine. It's really enjoyable stuff. Definitely get this if you are a fan of grind, crust, sludge, or industrial.

The last of the mohicans

Well that's it for the mega post. Fuck off.

FILTH!

If you don't like Filth you suck. Seriously. I love this band. They are from the Bay Area. Everyone and their brother has heard bay area thrash, well these mo-fo's helped pioneer the Bay Area hardcore sound between 89 - 94 or something like that. Anyways, good crustcore. Anti-cop, anti-skin head, pro-scarification, and drug use. This album is my fuckin high school years all in a neat package.

Another Terrorist Organization - For Terrorists in Training

Another Terrorist Organization(RIP), or ATO as I knew them as were a vegan, bike punk, environmentalist, anti-sexist, class-war, crustcore band with a lot of lyrical criticism on the "punk" scene in the area and body image and stuff like that. Equipped with some pretty metalized yet groovy drum parts, male/female vocals, fast hardcore riffs, and a clear stance on things this band was the hot shit too me when I was 15. And they are still pretty fucking awesome 4 1/2 years later.

A manifesto and explanation of their name from their myspace(this was also in the insert in this album):

""in february of 2003 a new bill was introduced to legislature, ‘the animal and ecological terrorism act’. the act was created by the american legislative exchange council (the a.l.e.c. has corporate sponsors such as phillip morris, enron and several major oil companies) and is intended for use in all u.s. states. the act criminalizes virtually all forms of environmental and animal-rights advocacy. this act was so well received in texas that it was adopted in new york a month later. mississippi, wisconsin and washington are now showing interest. anyone could be considered a terrorist if they were to participate in any legitimate peaceful protest, civil disobedience, demonstration or debate towards environmental or animal welfare. similarly, giving money or contributing in any form to these ‘terrorist cells’ would be punishable. the act also sets up a state run website that is similar to that of sex offenders, where eco-terrorists and animal-rights activists would have to supply their name, address and current photo for three years. and finally, no journalist would be allowed into any facility to photograph or record and information to be used to defame the facility in any way, so all those dirty little companies out there will now be safe behind their big walls and barbed wire fences. the majority of our band do not eat animals. the majority of our band, have taken, or are willing to take to the streets in support of that which cannot represent itself. animals have no say. they have become expendable bio-machines. the earth has no say. it is here for us to use and abuse for profit and comfort. is this what humanity has come down to, profit over everything else? it is illogical that is not our way. we are terrorists. and this is another terrorist organization."


"For Terrorists in Training" was a very DIY CD-R demo that they put out at some of their shows back in like 2003-4? They were like "Hey, If you have like 1 or 2 dollars or whatever that'll be cool". And it was pretty cool, too bad these guys broke up. They were like my first taste of DIY anarcho-punk stuff and had a pretty big influence to me.

MISANTHROPIC

Misanthropic is a band for fans of Dystopia and Nausea. Cool socio-political groovin sludge/crust with some thrash parts. I think some of the people that were in this group went on to form Sea of Deprivation. Except Misanthropic has a female vocalist in some parts. So yea, here's their Album "Open up and Take Your Bullet" and a couple other songs I found by them. This shit is real obscure, I can't find anything else by them.

The Number 12 Looks Like This.

Well don't worry. I don't listen to The Number 12 Looks Like You... lulz. That band is sceney turd trash.

Anyways I constructed a mix by going into my i-tunes and creating a "smart playlist" and setting the parameters to any tracks that appears as the 12th track of their respective album with the most play counts. So here's 24 tracks of grind, metal, punk, ska, crust, rock, and hardcore mayhem that appears 12th on their album. Let me know what you think.

Some particular tracks that stuck out to me:

"Tales of Lolita" by Floor. This was the first song I ever heard by the stoner metal legends and is still one of my favorites. The first thing I said when a friend of mine showed me this little gem was, "This is the saddest fucking song I've ever heard." And it really is, but its so great, and I think on some level every male can relate to this song. haha.

"I Don't Care About You!" by Blatz. This is a great cover, by a great band. Blatz covering Fear's classic is just fuckin rad. It will fill your jeans with cream if you're a fan of punk, especially if you enjoy male female back and forth vocals in the style that only the Bay Area could provide.

"Strike Anywhere" by Another Terrorist Organization. I just have to metnion this track because it comes from a band that used to play in my town alot a couple years back, prolly in 2002. But they kind of disappeared one day and I never heard about them again. It's some pretty groovin crust grind with male/female vox. They were a just a really cool vegan, bike punk, anti-fascist, anti-sexist band.
