Amesouers - Amesouers



If you haven't already heard Amesouers you are fucking dumb. They were a band from France that formed in the mid 00's and broke up in late 2009. They played a mix of post rock, post punk, and black metal, with some shoegaze moments. Some of my favorite stuff ever. You should really get in to this... This is a creation of Niege of Alcest and Peste Noier and Fursy Teyssier of Les Discrets, along with singer Audrey Sylvain...

Trendy Bastard/Krupskaya split 7"



This is a trans-Atlantic split between Trendy Bastard and Krupskaya. Each band provides 6 songs and all under 12 minutes... The 7" was put out by a bunch of different labels. (sassbologna, give praise, scene cred, + more) Both bands are pretty chaotic, and that's how I like it. Get this while you still can.

Krupsakaya is a chaotic/grind band from the UK. They rage really fucking hard. Total blur of drums, pretty chaotic, but not pure noise. Definitely some modern sounding grind here, but not 'scene' shit at all. Sounds like a mix between As the Sun Sets, Yacopse, Call Me Betty, and Discordance Axis with some vocals that at times remind me of black metal or skramz. Lots of start stop blasting and high end shit countered by tasteful chugging.

Trendy Bastard were a hardcore band from Iowa. (2003-2008) They have hints of thrash, punk, and grind popping up every where. Sometimes they sound a little bit tech-metal, but with that expected hardcore-sloppiness that we all know and love. These guys blast blast blast and then get groovey with crazy little riffs, jumping from old school thrash riffs to noisecore, driven by pumelling drums all the while the vocalist screams his guts out... I guess these guys could be compared to Tyranny of Shaw, Graf Orlock, Phoenix Bodies and other midwest hardcore. Don't blink, you might miss something.

Trendy Bastard:
1.Urethras Castle
2.Dan Woodman
3.Crocodile Mustache
4.Twig Destroyer
5.Bark Funeral
6.666 Can eat my shit shit shit

Krupskaya:
1.And bless those who carry trepidation for the faceless enemy
2.Rain Fell in the Morning Air
3.Onwards the righteous into the mire
4.Failed by the angel of mons
5.Only rats came for the bodies
6.Trespass against me for I am war and rebirth

Boregore - Goresteps Most Hated (2009)



So, fuck y'all if you're hatin. I tend to not like 'hip' stuff like this, but it's just too fucking good. Borgore is from Israel and he makes really filthy dubstep (GORESTEP) that rocks all seven continents. Shit is insane. Everyone needs this in their collection if they are even remotely interested in electronic music, or if you are an open minded hip hop fan or something. Just scope it out.

Day of Less - Porcaria



So, this band has a pretty dumb name in my opinion. BUT, don't let that fool you. These guys are sick. Maybe some of you guys have heard of this band called GAZA, who fucking rip dicks off and shove em down peoples throats... Well, if you haven't heard GAZA, this is where it all began. Most of the members of GAZA used to be in Day of Less, and most of DoL's albums sucked ass... BUT, this one is great. This is described by the GAZA dudes as "a gnarly collection of grungy post-hardcore songs". And I couldn't have put it any better myself. This is what post-hardcore SHOULD sound like. You can hear direct similarities to GAZA on this album, but you can also hear stuff reminiscent of less underground stuff like Tool and Converge with hints of sludge and stoner rock poking up here and there. It's spastic like GAZA, but it also is counterpointed by a strong melodic streak. You'll understand.

I highly suggest this album for anyone who's bored with the state of hardcore.

Trencher - Lips



TRENCHER! Fuck yes. What is there to say about these psychos? They play bass heavy grindcore with a casio-tone keyboard instead of a lead guitar! Blast beats, chunky bass, insane yelps, and toy key boards? How could you go wrong with this? Check it out if you like Lightning Bolt, The Locust, or if you are interested in the weirder side of power violence... There are some keyboard parts that are reminiscent of the creepier, more eerie side of Faith No More as well... Dig in.

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.

Receive the album

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.

Receive your goodies

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.

Downlowd

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.

Bucket Full of Teeth - I,II, III

Bucket Full of Teeth was a weird noisey power violence screamo hardcore band. They were awesome, this was their first three 7" inches I think. They have members that are in Ampere, Wolves, and Transistor Transistor.

From Last FM:
"Formed in Early 2001 by Brad Wallace and Will Killingsworth, both former members of Orchid, Bucket Full of Teeth was conceived as a friendly venture in playing generic powerviolence but instantaneosly evolved into much more. The band quickly become more interested in pushing conventions of heavy music and punk rock, and in 2002 released 3 7”s simultaneously as a first attempt at personal experimentation and musical destruction."

Capsule - Blue

Great fucking album by a great band. A three piece (with their sound it's hard to believe it's just three dudes...) group with two ex-members of Tyranny of Shaw. Uh, these guys are fucking wicked. Kind of screamo, off the wall, hardcore, artsy (god I hate that word, but I lack a better description) insanity. Its good stuff. I'll let this one speak for itself. Oh and fun fact, apparently their name is derived from Bulma's families company called Capsule Corp. from Dragon Ball. That just makes them 10x as cool.

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.)



1.Daylights Gone
2.Risking My Life For 5$ an Hour
3.Attack of the Dirtflies (4am and Hot as Hell)
4.Have You Ever Met a Cyclops?
5.Landmine Youth Camp
6.What the Cat Dragged In
7.Playing Morra With the Devils Star
8.Routing Her Convulsions
9.Spintheft
10.Wave Goodbye
11.Nano-Augmented Romance Novel/*/Transmissions Of Immediate Evacuation/Stars In Camouflage (Stars in Camouflage EP all in one track)
