Scatha - After The Dust Settles 2xLP

-When I got intrested in the whole Crust scene I saw a few Scatha patches here and there but never really put some thought into checking them out. After the advent of being able to hear bands on Youtube and Myspace I finally checked them out. This is a discography of their work and I am still kicking my own ass for not getting into them sooner.

Born Dead Icons

2011-05-31T22:49:00.007-05:00

Born Dead Icons - Work, Dead Alive Records 2000

Sadly, I only got to see Born Dead Icons play once but what a show. I totally got hooked on them after picking up this album after they played. At the time I was use to in your face Hardcore and Grindcore; the only other Crust band that wasn't fast was Amebix. Personally I do not hear what is suppose to be the obvious Amebix/Motorhead sound. After putting this album on the turntable. I think that Born Dead Icons were put on the back burner during the early 2000's. Their sound is right up there with other bands of their time ala From Ashes Rise and Tragedy. Work,is proof that their sound was hell of a lot dark and dirtier then the heavy-weight West Coast bands at the time, it's always up to debate with me.

Sanctum / Stormcrow - Split (No Option Records) 2006

I never really got into Sanctum that much until this split with Stormcrow came out. This is a totally epic split on all proportions altough I tend to listen to the Stormcrow side more often then the other. Sanctum delivers that extremely dark and moody Crust while Stormcrow slowly blackens the landscape with pestilence of disparity. I picked this up when Stormcrow played at Memory Lanes.

This is turning into a listening to blog.

2011-05-19T14:23:00.000-05:00

Well, I am not all great at being a web master or lore master of my home state's bands. So instead I write about what I am listening to. No downloads available. I believe in buying hard copy music from the labels or the bands. IF you want to download it from somewhere else go right ahead at least go out and see them if they are still a band and support them or in other ways. I'm not going to get into a long winded debate. So here's what I am listening to.

Acephalix - Interminable Night LP (Agipunk / Southern Lord), 2011.

The already rare demo's on vinyl. Death Metal or Crust, which ever it's a breath of fresh air after then all the Blackened/Epic material that's been floating around. Acephalix's sound is unique touch of darkness that gives a nod to the early Earache sound: Morgoth, Carnage, a light touch of Bolt Thrower with a dash of early Unleashed. Over all shorter solos with down-tuned crisp distortion with pulverizing thunder developing a intoxicating fury.

The first side their newest demo Flesh Torn In Twilight demo while the second side is the 2010 Interminable Night demo. Both were recorded by Jeff Leppard at Lennon Studios in San Fransisco. I can't tell if they were recorded at different sessions with my ears bleeding so damn much.

The collapse of civilization is here and Acephalix is the stinging concussion from the failed scheme.

Hello to all!

2009-01-05T12:56:00.000-06:00

I haven't done much with this for a few months, I have been sick and moving into a new place of dwelling in the past few months. I am wanting to add rar files of some of the more rare and hard to find eps and albums and samples of songs to bands that already have music out there; all with the approval of people from the bands of course. IF anyone has videos of some of the bands please leave a link to the source and I'll add it to the bands post. Cheers!

Defacto Oppression

2008-10-03T06:10:00.000-05:00

-azone show.

-DFO was based out of Menomonie respectfully. They destroyed as many bacements as eardrums. By the time of thier second release they could stand the test of time and become one of the best bands that has graced so many dizzy minds and sweaty walls.

Members:
Chris D- Vocals (most likely still plays D&D)
Mike O - Bass (Weaving The Deathbag, Lost Issues)
Adam K - Drums
Jake W. - Guitar, backup vox

Discography:

-We're Digging Our Graves... 7", Self Released (now Hungry Ghosts Records) 1999. This gasp of breath was recorded after the band was together for six months. The lyrics are more politically straight forward and the music more rudimentary hardcore but still an excellent recording. This was the third 7" that I picked up and will be one of my top five for a long time.

Tracks:
1. Suburban Sprawl
2. It's Not That Simple
3. Cycles of History
4. Frankenstein
5. Locked Away
6. It's The Drugs Doug

-Screen Symphony Suicide CD, Self Released (Now Hungry Ghosts Records) 2001. There is nothing more than I can say about this album other than FUCK YEAH. Some people will sweep this album under the rug by saying that it borrowed too much from From Ashes Rise; that statement would have been different it they'd actually listened to the album rather than just look at the pretty pictures.

Tracks:
1. Oblivious To Concerns
2. So Far So Good?
3. Walk Away
4. The Faithful
5. To Sleep Without Dreams
6. Waiting Without Dreams
7. The Train

xGASHx

-xGASHx is a band that you'll most likely never experience. This unique band was made up graduates from various high class schools based in Wisconsin. They ripped up basement after basement through their "thrash as fuck" lifestyle, not to mention various beers, whiskeys, vodkas and unmentionables. xGASHx does random reunions when they can afford to get away from their busy lives, even just for a minute.

Members:
- No one really knows who they were due to their antisocial life styles, the few that know them can conferm that some of their members went to UW-Stout. xGASHx ranged from two to seven members at once.

Discography:
-There is a recording of seven tracks out there that was mentioned in an issue Spin.
