Playlist : 2/28/16 - 3/12/16

- Titled : "Black Water's Rising"

I know it has been a while since my last update work and personal life have been keeping me quite busy. No complaints here, except I have not been able to listen to as much music as I want to. Without further bullshit on my behalf here is my playlist. Cheers!



2/28/16
--------
Winter - Into Darkness LP (1992)
 - Okay, I totally dig this album. I finally found a copy really cheep at Extreme Noise before I went to work and literally ended up using change from the floor of my friends car to pay for it.

Coffinworm - When All Became None LP (2010)
 - If I am going to be on a slow doom and sludgy path, this seemed like the path to follow.



2/29/16 (Leap Year/Day Bullshit)
--------
Long, long ago somewhere somewhere in Sweden.
--------
Avskum - Punkista LP (2003)
 - Holy shit! I cannot express how much I love this band and this album. A small group of friends found this band, being from nowhere Wisconsin, and have kept them dear to our hearts ever since. This album hits at full throttle and keeps the fuel pumping until the end. I usually listen to this album two or three times in a roll just to let it sink in...with a full night ahead, I only listened to it once this time. "I Hate Your Fucking War!"

Wolfbrigade - Comalive LP (2008)
 - This album is a total rager. There was no need for a come back, Wolfbrigade, never left!

Miasmal - Cursed Redeemer LP (2014)
 - Shit, Sweden always produces awesome metal and punk. Maybe it is the water or the boredom; I can never tell. Why this group decided to sign to Century Media is beyond my mind yet they deliver some of the best best metal I have heard in a while. Their first album was more raw and this is more polished, so what. This album is grade AAA+++ extreme music. This album sounds like Dismembered, Carnage and Exhumed fighting over a half eaten bag of ranch Doritos.

Skitsystem - Enkel Resa Till Rännstenen LP (2001)
 - I remember the whole Midwest freaking out about this band (a big thank you to FELIX HAVOC); everyone was blaring it and had the patches and shirts. This band introduced to me to the wider Swedish punk and metal scene. Before this album, I only really listened to Unleahsed, Nasum and Carnage. Holy shit, this album blew some door wide open and will forever remain serrated in my brain as on of the best.

Nasum - Human 2.0 CD (2000)
 - I am going to end off with this album. To par Skitsystem with another band, it better be Nasum. Everyone has their opinion on Mieszko's recording style yet, fuck it, this band ruled. I found this album at a pawn shop for two dollars and is still one of the best two dollars I have ever spent. This album stepped away from their early raw-grind side and more towards the death metal realm and is still steeped in 'Napalm Worship'. The song 'Resistance' still makes me shake my fist at the world. Hail Mieszko! "Today We Die! Today Testify!"
..................
D.S. 13 - Killed By The Kids LP (2001)
 - Okay, I forget one of my favorite bands EVER. For some reason it never registered to me that they were Swedish (the WI hardcore scene was listening to this...get it?). This album it home a helluva lot more. This album stand true more with the scene that I grew up with. Alright, now sleep. Outta beer, outta luck.

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.

EXTREME NOISE 2015. Thanksgiving Playlist.


Extreme Noise, November 2015
-I volunteered at Extreme Noise Records, in Minneapolis, for Thanksgiving this year. Our all-volunteer punk rock collective is open 365 days a year, so I filled in on this date that is usually reserved for family time. As a reminder, this holiday is based on genocide of the inhabitants of North America that were already here before "The Pilgrims"; fuck that. So here is the playlist from that night for those in need of their metal or punk rock fix.
------------------------------------------------
Effluxus - Life Destruction LP
 - Raw, chaotic as fuck hardcore-punk. A bit well to polished for my taste but I can imagine that thier live shows are crazy as all hell.

Axeman - Arrive LP
 - "Shit, that album sucks" - my buddy Ryan. Well, he is dead motherfucking wrong. The album title and riffs alone, is a tongue in-cheek joke about Amebix's 'Arise'. Arise, Arrive; get it? Thought so. This album blends that slow and melodic crust vibe with the fury of black metal riffs. And it is all one dude! Fuck you, Ryan, this shit rules.

Gism - Detestation LP
 - I listened to this a couple of times in my youth. I am torn between wanting to throw the record against the wall to wanting to thrashing out. I know, "It's a classic!"; that's why I threw it on dumb ass! I have not had many chances to listen to this album all the way through. I can see where bands around the world site this band as their main influence. Shit's tight, raw and totally in your face.

Morbid Angel - Alters Of Madness LP
 - Death Metal was not huge in the area I grew up. Sure, we listened to Napalm Death and Carcass, but for some reason we did not listen to much metal outside of thrash. I can see how this is a highly cited album and it kicks ass like a grandmother playing poker; I think that the Swede's brought forth a more remorseless side of humanity in a fashion that really leaves the future absolutely bleak.

Bolt Thrower - The IV Crusade LP
 - Finally an affordable version was repressed. This is the fourth age of the sage that is Bolt Thrower.

Life - Violence, Peace and Peace Research LP
 - Japanese raw noise is totally some of best hardcore. This album is on par with any Desastre  Recharge albums any day. Dead Silent Spring riff's were intense has the cold war while Annihilate really does pulverize everything in its path and Hypocrisy is like being dragged through a field of razors.



Venom - Black Metal LP
- "WE/WILL RAISE THE DEAD!!!"
