Playlist 12/27/15

12/27/15
--------
Deviated Instinct - Re-opening Old Wounds LP
-This is some classic shit right here!

Appalachian Terror Unit - We Don't Need Them LP
-I listened to this two times in a row just to get a feel of the album. I am still on the fence but it sounds pretty tight.

Unholy Grave / Butcher ABC - Nuke 'Em All 7"
- At one time, Unholy Grave, was my favorite band; they bring a perfect amount of raw grinding noise to the plate that is addicting. Butcher ABC is one of Japan's best grind bands.

Warcry - Harvest of Death 7"
- I can never get enough Warcry to keep my head banging.

Clusterfux - Abandon Your Gods LP
- Melodic and hard-hitting; pretty decent songs here.

Kromosom - 8 Tracks 12"
- Raw and chaotic. Fuck yeah!

Hellnation - Your Chaos Days Are Numbered LP
- Power-violence is not my favorite genre but this album stands out as one of the best.

Reality Crisis - Discharge Your Frustration LP
- This hardcore band is totally underrated.

------------
Heard at Work: (my coworkers can surprise me from time to time):
X - Los Angeles

Dinosaur Jr.
- Haven't heard many songs outside of 'Without a Sound'. Not the biggest fan but whatever
------------

Celtic Frost - Monotheist LP
- Great album to unwind to.

12/12 - 12/14/15

 Totally forgot to put this up and keep a good playlist, work and life tend to get in the way.


12/12/15
--------
Entombed - Clandestine LP
 - I've been in a Death Metal mood lately.

Bolt Thrower - For Victory LP
 - So glad to see a sloth of Bolt Thrower reisues in the past few years.

Dismember – Death Metal 2xLP
 - I know it is not everyone's favorite album but there are some damn good tracks on this album.

--------
12/14/15
--------

Asinine Solution - Cause Effect 7"
 - One of my favorite recordings of all time. This seven inch is catchy and fast. The Wisconsin scene was totally underrated at the time and that was too bad for everyone else.

Assbrigade - Demo 2012 Tape
 - Yeah, I listen to my own band's music...so fucking what.

Zero Hour - Self Titled 7"
 - Still, these songs are great. The B-Side/Side B; these are some the strongly contructed to date in this genre.

Defiance - No Future No Hope LP
 - Yep, kinda drunk and this album still reigns true.

Nightfell - Darknss Evrmore LP
 - HOLY SHIT! I am listening to this album more.

Neurosis - Soverin EP 12"

Playlist : 12/3/15 - 12/8/15

12/3/15
-------
Warning - Protest And... Still They Die? 7" (1993?)
 - I still think that this EP is a bit of a let down. Their sound is super stripped down to a less raw early eighties Discharge style and lacks the power that it really is striving for. But recording techniques have changed a bit since this recording.

Peroxide - Can You Hear The Sound Of Peace? 7" (2012)
 - The chain saw buzz of the guitar mixed with a precious bass attack, over hard hitting drums with a howling voice are deafening my ears! 'Nuclear Solution' is totally my favorite of this slab of madness.

Genocide / Sorto ?– Final Path To Destruction LP (2005)
 - Genocide's recording from 1993, is fucking tight as hell and full of desperation. Sorto's '83-84' demo side are totally chaotic as hell and distorted as fuck.

Napalm Raid - Mindless Nation LP (2012)
 - Totally, DOOM, crustcore worship done in the best fucking way.

Totalt Jävla Mörker - Helvetespunk 7" (2015)
 - It's been a while since their last release. The metal influence really was knocked up a few notches but in a damn good way.

Asfixia - Self Titled 7" (2006)
 - Really, this group should have been up there with Ekkaia and Cop On Fire. Totally raging melodic hardcore.

Contagium - Self Titled 7" (2009)
 - Sludgy and metallic crust is quite possibly my favorite style of punk. This EP is dead on within that vein of heavy overkill.

Abaddon - Life Out of Balance LP (2009)
 - Some excellent grind/death from Wisconsin.

Zero Hour - Self Titled 7" (1994)
 - That mid ninties crust-punk is at it's best within these four tracks.

Off to work.

Playlist : 11/23/15 - 12/2/15

11/23/15 - 12/2/15
-----------------------------
Warthreat - And The Children 7" (2014)
- These Australians bring forth pretty standard D-Beat but still kick in your door and demand you to house them. The vocals have that somewhat overdone reverb but it fit well with the over all recording. This release was totally worth picking up.

Warcry - Needle Zero Drone II 7" (2014)
- One of the best bands to come out of the U.S. since the late 00's. Sure, they sound similar with each recording but, fuck!, they still drown you in pure awesomeness.

After The Bombs - Terminal Filth Stench Bastard EP 7" (2005)
- For me this was a band that all of a sudden was there, laid waste and then was gone. I think that this EP was their strongest material put forth; heavy and hard hitting as all fuck.

From Ashes Rise - Rejoice The End 7" (2012)
- When these records came out I was overly happy that they were putting out more material. It was mor then a blast from the past and made me feel like I was fucking eighteen again. They pretty much picked up where they left off and made me wonder if these were new songs or rehashes of songs left off 'Nightmares', anyways, Rejoice The End!

Desperat - Demokrati Eller Diktatur? 7" (2012)
- I really need to listen to these guys more to be able to judge this release. So far it is totally solid hardcore that only the Swede's can deliver. Shit, I need a new pair of pants...

Silent Order - Distraction 7" (2015)
- There are hardly any riffs at first listen; just pure noise in the Japanese vein. At first, I decided I did not like this EP at all. Maybe it is the beer but I think that their live shows would be awesome...soooo come down from your Canadian stronghold and lay waste to a basement in these Midwest area...fuckers.

Discider - Drinking To Forget The Future 7"(2001)
- Okay, what happens when you live in the MOST LIBERAL city in the Midwest and dump a deuce and a half of alcohol and anger on top of a bunch of punks in the 'Heart-Land'? I don't know either, I can't remember. This may not be the most mind blowing record of all time but for a small town Wisconsinite lie myself, they were. Fuck you George The Ripper.

V/A - We Come In Peace - More World Less Bank pt. 2 7" (2004)
- Personally, my deep love for compilations runs back before the Internet allowed us to check out bands from wherever, whenever; and not so inconstancy as we can now. The bands that kicked me in the balls on this occasion are Anatomi-71, Ensam and the almighty Diskonto.

Desastre / Lixo ?– Funeral Na Nova Ordem / Lixo 7"
- I threw this on after reading about, Diana Midori of , of Ensam, playing drums in Desastre on this recording. Brazil (Basil), has a reputation of impressive hardcore bands such as Desastre. (I listened to this split three times in a row!)

(See Thanksgiving Playlist)

Amebix - Arise! LP
-Nothing wrong with listening to a classic album once and a while.

Nightfell - Darkness Evermore LP
 - This awesome. Dark riffs, hard hitting drums and bleak melodies.
