State - German/Verboten 7" Ep



State is a gritty 80's style hardcore punk band from Detroit Michigan. Apparently all these dudes have been into hardcore since the 80's so it's not really lame for them to be playing throwback style hardcore in the late 00's. You can expect everything you would expect from an 80's American hardcore band. Lots of grit, mid to fast paced drums, perfectly placed group vocals, just enough melody, and modest slop filled guitar soloing. The rad thing about this 7" is that half the songs are in German, although they are an American band. For fans of MDC, Circle Jerks, DOA, and Negative FX. Dig it!

Morgue - Eroded Thoughts



So, apparently Morgue is one of those gems that slips away from history... Well luckily, I am a gem finder. I find the gems, forgotten by society and it's many deviant subcultures. Anyways, MORGUE, they were a Death Metal (old school by today's standards) in the early 90's and they only released this cult classic along with 2 demos. They play in a vein similar to early Gorguts and with some doomy undertones. Either way, this stuff slays. It's pretty straight forward, but that's how I like it!

Benediction - Transcend the Rubicon [1993]



So, Benediction is fucking sick. They have been around for ages. They play old school death metal with hits of grind thrown in just for kicks. They have a style similar to Bolt Thrower (so I'm told), and they slay pretty hard. Barney Greenway did vocals on their first album (I think). Anyways, this is supposed to be their best album so get into it!
