THOR

do you like comic books? do you like movies? do you like movies based on comic books? if you've answered yes to any of these questions, then you might be interested in seeing the trailer for the new upcoming Marvel comic live action movie of your favorite blond haired, blue eyed, hammer wielding, lightning bolt throwin, god of thunder, the mighty THOR! now Marvel has a way of really screwing up their movie adaptations of popular comic book characters and i wouldn't be the least bit surprised if this is another turd in the Marvel universe's punchbowl of hero flicks...but regardless, i will still watch (possibly in disbelief) as another one of my favorite characters gets raped by the soulless executives in Hollywood...they have to know that whether the movie is good or bad, all of the die hard fans are still gonna go see it, so go ahead and just feed us any old garbage Hollywood, and most likely we'll come back, begging for more...i know that Stan Lee has more integrity than to release just any bullshit movie and expect fans to be happy about it, but then again, didn't they make a Daredevil movie?, with Ben Affleck? maybe i should stop right there....but judging from the trailer, this new film doesn't look as horrible as the aforementioned atrocity, but it definitely doesn't look as good as i would have hoped...whats with the casting on all of these movies?!! who the fuck makes the final decision on what actor is gonna play Thor, or any of the other title characters?! i would like to know, so that i could ask for this persons resignation and then apply for the job myself....i for one would not cast some scrawny goofball to play the role of the god of thunder!! also, i wouldn't have cast Hugh Jackman as Wolverine in all the X-Men movies either (although i do admit, he did an outstanding job) it should have been Glenn Danzig...he would have been perfect...hes short, has a body that looks to be full of steroids and rage, and most importantly he already had the sideburns to totally pull off the look....if you don't agree, just watch the Danzig video for "Mother" and tell me thats not the perfect Wolverine on the mic....im just sayin....but anyway, lets all pray to whatever god you believe in, that this movie isn't a total bust...i hate to say it but the coolest looking part is at the very end of the trailer when the Sentinel appears...that has to be some obvious foreshadowing of the full length live action Avengers movie that will be made after this film comes out... hey Marvel! how about a Death's Head movie?, or maybe an adaptation of one of the 2099 titles? but please, for the love of Thor, make it gritty, dark, sinister, and bloody....or did Disney cut off your balls when you sold out?

Fleshgod Apocalypse - Mafia (2010)

this was recommended to me by another super cool metalhead dude and i would like to thank him because what we have here is a new wave of death metal...just the blast i needed to restore my faith in a somewhat dying, overcrowded, boring, genre of music that i've kind of gotten burnt out on, to be quite honest....but this band totally melts your face off with super fast riffs, technically precise guitar work, perfectly produced drums, and heavy growling vocals that are somewhat reminiscent of Suffocation until he decides to break out the clean vocals...wait, i know what you're thinking....clean vocals? what the hell?!...and i agree, that usually ruins it and i end up turning off the cd or skipping to the next track...but wait!! this shit isn't weak! i promise you....yeah he gets a little high pitched for a second and i start to think that the ghost of Ronnie James Dio has come to harvest my soul for shoplifting his Rainbow In The Dark album 9 years ago....but the vocals actually fit well with the music, surprisingly enough, and the clean vocals are used so sparingly that it gives the album a more textured sound but doesn't water it down in the least bit...this shit is pretty brutal, i must say...i like it....give it a listen and then go to the nearest Chinese buffet and eat as much octopus and Cthulhu spawn as you can stomach....i hear if you eat enough calamari, you'll start to grow tentacles, and those things could come in handy...or tentacally? a one man band performing live wouldn't seem so hard....dammit CTHULHU!!! why don't i have tentacles?!!! http://www.mediafire.com/?98n4aoba04dt9uz

Mose Giganticus - Gift Horse

i take back anything bad i ever said about this band...ok, so i didn't really care for their first two albums and when i heard that they signed to Relapse, i was like, wtf?!!! but it all makes sense now....this shit is fucking heavy....way more so than their previous efforts, and its not just heavy, its new, original, and refreshing....these guys incorporate a lot of electronic elements into their music using synth and some robotic voice stuff here and there, but don't get the wrong idea...this isn't some lame, like industrial metal bullshit...they got riffs, awesome riffs, nothing that will totally blow you away but some really catchy, heavy, groovy riffs...if you've heard their other two albums before then i would say, erase your memory and start over cause this album is way beyond anything they have done in the past, and i hope that their future will be a bright one....good job Relapse, i doubted you at first (can ya blame me?) but you guys obviously had more of an idea of what this band was capable of than i did, and i approve of you signing them....now get off of Sanford Parkers nuts and sign another band that rocks as hard as Mose Giganticus!
...apparently these guys aren't all about sharing their music without finacial compensation...i should have figured as much, they're on Relapse Records after all....pricks

The End

ok, don't ask me why but earlier today i suddenly had feelings for a second...like real human emotions and stuff...it was kinda scary for a minute but don't worry, i got over it and im all better now...back to my cold, burn your fucking eyes out with my stare, soul shattered, emotionless self...but during my short lapse into the human condition, i managed to write a really shitty song...i hope ya hate it!

If we never cry,
How do we know that we're alive?
In the end
We all will die
Never knowing the reasons why

Is there a point to mankind's existence?
And will your soul transcend this earthly prison?
Make the most of the time you are given
Cause at any second, the clock can stop ticking

No one knows what lies beyond
When mortality runs its course
We can only hope that the cycle progresses
And gets better instead of worse

Don't live your life in fear of the unknown
Take comfort in what you know
You were born, you do shit, you die,
The End
Accept the fate you cannot control

Fuck The Telephone

time to kick some lyrics for ya...heres a powerviolencey Schnauzer inspired song i wrote earlier today after a brief conversation with some random telemarketing fuckface...its called... FUCK THE TELEPHONE

Fuck the telephone
I don't wanna hear it ring
Cause at the other end
Is some asshole with a scheme

Don't call me,
looking for money
Don't call me,
this shit ain't fuckin funny
I can't waste my time
talking to you
At the end of the month
when i have no minutes left
What the fuck am i supposed to do?!!

Fuck the telephone
Unless you want to bone
Fuck the telephone
Unless you have something i own
Fuck the telephone
I don't wanna hear your fucking ringtone
Fuck the telephone
Fuck everyone on planet earth
I'M NOT HOME!!!

Psywarfare - Candyman EP

awwwww shit, what?! what?! i just got this record in the mail today and im fucking stoked! super limited to 106 copies, never to be repressed again, hand numbered, dark pink vinyl, and it came with the "lost" lyrics to the Integrity album, Seasons In The Size Of Days...also, i got a patch and two crazy ass inserts of Sammy Davis Jr.'s head on a robot body included in the deal...haha, pretty sweet...im a huge Psywarfare fan and Integrity is also one of my favorite bands of all time, so i was really excited to read the never before seen lyrics to SITSOD that weren't included on the album and then listen to Dwid's sonic terrorism that is Psywarfare...
4 tracks of crazy noise, chaotic distortion, groovy mechanical drums, and Dwids own style of vocals that range from a soft whisper to a full on holy terror hellion scream...its awesome shit, simple as that...im lucky to finally own this record and im definitely not gonna take it for granted...in fact, i think i'll listen to it again right now

Home Is Where The Hardcore Is

wow, so its been awhile since my last post, a lot has happened in this past month, where to begin? first off and most importantly i have moved from the butthole of southwest Virginia back to my hometown of York, PA...its unbelievable what a little change of scenery and culture can do for ya...i feel like my quality of life has improved 100 times over in just the two weeks that i've been back...the creative juices are flowing, inspiration is in abundance, the women are hotter, the bands rock harder, hell, even my hair is more shiny and alive since my recent migration home...i went to a show the other day and had a fucking blast, and in the town i used to live in that was an extremely rare occurrence...so the band i went to see was called, The Coke Dares...they are from Indiana and were on tour and just happened to have a free date where they didn't already have a show booked, so a friend of mine who knew the band, got them to play a house party, for free (beers were a dollar and the proceeds went to the band) and they fucking rocked the house with some really creative and kickass punk rock insanity...i really can't say enough good shit about this band, not only were they totally awesome live, but they were really cool dudes to hang out and party with...after blasting the doors off of the house party with about 45 songs, these guys headed to a bar up the street where they were having an open mic night, and totally shredded the faces off of a mostly unsuspecting crowd (most of the peeps from the house show came to the bar to see the rest of the killer 86 song set)...it was great! they played about another 40 songs of mostly original material with a couple of really awesome covers of ZZ Top and The Eagles...and, as if the show wasn't badass enough, i happened to come across a sweet piece of merch that just seemed to be meant for me to buy...i mean, i had to get it, for obvious reasons...i talked to their bass player and he told me the whole story behind the title of the 7", which was way more interesting and detailed than what i'll go into here, but basically to sum it up...they met a dude out on the road while they were on tour and the guy acted super shady and weird, asking about drugs and being totally blatant and obvious about shit so the band pretty much concluded (probably very accurately) that the guy was a cop...and it just so happened his name was Brad...now of course i hate the law as much as the next guy and probably more so than most people, so when i saw this record lying there on the merch table, i had to laugh...i told the bassist from The Coke Dares to see me after their set cause i had to buy that shit for reals! and i ended up talking and drinking with the guy, and this is how cool the band was...he just hooked me up with it for free...i mean, sure i bought some beers throughout the night and whatnot but i was more than willing to pay $3 for something that was so incredibly ironic and awesome looking...but the guy said nah, don't worry about it....now let me put this into perspective really quick....heres a band on the road, a long way from home, not making much of anything as far as money is concerned, just rocking out for the love of the music and on one of their free nights when they didn't have to play a gig, they came out, played two incredible sets, 86 songs total, for free mind you, (i think they might have made like $50) and they hooked me up with a 7" record for freesies....thats fucking punk rock my friends! theres nothing else you can say...mad props to The Coke Dares for keeping it real and being totally kickass and awesome! if you ever hear of these guys coming to your town, you better get off your fucking ass and go check that shit out!, trust me, you'll be glad you did....you can check their myspace page to get an idea of their sound, but im telling you straight up - these dudes sound way better live...they put on one hell of a show and i couldn't think of a better way to kick off this new chapter in the saga of shit called life...man, its good to be home...like my brutha from anotha mutha, Wesley Willis would say, if he were me right now...rock over VA, rock on PA! McDonalds, i'm lovin it!
my buddy had his video camera with him and got most of the two sets on tape, so as soon as he posts that shit on Youtube, i'll have a link for it...i hope the audio turned out well, i haven't seen any of the footage yet myself but from what i observed i think he got some pretty good footage of this badass band doin what they do

Devo - Something For Everybody


i can't believe it...Devo is back! and it couldn't have come at a better time...the whole pop music culture sickens me to no end...you got worthless, talentless assholes that just get on stage and shake their titties and ass around to compensate for the fact that they can't sing, can't play any instruments, can't write their own songs, and basically have no business being in the music industry in the first place...like that retarded wench, Kesha...the only time this super moronotronic slut should even get close to a microphone is when shes repeating my order back to me at fuckin Mickey Dees...did you see her performance on SNL? absofuckinglutely horrible! and yet the masses are eating this shit up like Kirstie Alley at an Old Country Buffet (or anywhere else where food is served) its freakin ridiculous, but thank god there is a savior for the pop music industry and they go by the name of Devo...this is their first album in 20 years and honestly, it couldn't be better...most everyone knows Devo from the song 'Whip It' and by those funny little stairstepped hats they'd wear (they're called Energy Domes by the way) but what you might not know is, this new album of all new material is way better than anything else you're gonna hear playin on the radio or in a club...like i said, i typically wanna vomit after listening to about 30 seconds of what the mainstream music world calls a 'hit', but i feel like this album has the potential to produce quite a number of hits of its own and it is extremely accessible, in that anyone could listen to this and probably not be offended, disgusted, sickened, or repulsed by the sound (like a lot of people are at 90% of the music i like) this record will be released on Tuesday, June 15, so we'll have to wait and see how well it is received by the ignorant masses...its definitely got my vote for best pop album of the year, not that there is a whole lot to choose from really...but if you need some tunes to help you get off your ass and boogie down to the max, then get this shit now! http://www.mediafire.com/?wtnmziulbgz

Scaremaker - What Evil Have They Summoned...

so i make it no secret that i am a huge Razorback Records fan, i love every band on their label and in my honest, humble opinion, they are the best overall metal label around, period...they consistently release quality death metal and manage to only sign bands that kick ass...i think they are more about quality rather than quantity and for that, i am glad...too many labels release pure shit just because they think that it will sell, and for the most part they're probably right, because your average consumer these days is either braindead, or brainwashed into following all of the new trends no matter how pathetic or lame they might be...hell, with the right marketing campaign, you could sell ice to eskimos, but at the end of the day, what have you really accomplished? well, i'll tell you what Razorback Records has accomplished...they have managed to release nothing but badass music for the past ten years and this brand new debut full length cd by Scaremaker is keeping with the tradition of awesomeness...so when i heard that the man behind my favorite label, Billy Nocera, had started his own death metal band, i was very intrigued to hear what this horror obsessed metalhead that has brought me some of the greatest cds that i own, would wind up putting on his very own bands cd...the result is nothing short of killer! (which i expected), as this death metal trio tear through 13 tracks of "demonic and violent riffs, murderous lyrical summonings, and ghastly vocals that leave you unhinged!" this is a good album of old school death metal but the real star of this record is Billy's wife, Vanessa Nocera...she does guitar, and bass, and vocals on this cd, she wrote all the music and about 70% of the lyrics...im like damn, this chick is fucking talented! Billy, you got yourself quite a catch here, you lucky bastard...the lyrics on this record are about a variety of terrifying topics, including "malicious deformed children who kill, undead immortals who suck blood from the living, backwoods maniacs fulfilling their mother's hunger for gore, agonizing witch burnings, traumatic transmutations, old books dripping with fetid ink, horrendous skinnings, malevolent vampires and offerings of forgotten horrors!" so if any of that sounds like something you'd wanna hear, then check this shit out now...and for a limited time if you order this cd from Razorback Records, it comes with an authentic Scaremaker toetag! how many other labels give you cool shit like this when you order?...these guys know what i like, and i like it
im such a big fan that i bought the Scaremaker demo tape the moment it was released...it was limited to 200 copies but don't worry, the 3 songs on this cassette are also on the full length cd and sound way better, thanks to a great mixing and mastering job by Patrick Bruss of Crypticus...so go ahead and grab the album and prepare yourself for a hellish ride of unspeakable horrors and neverending nightmares

Antisocial #2

comic books rule...i grew up collecting a lot of Marvel titles but the older i got the more i ventured into the independent comic book world and started to find some really great books from some really awesome writers and illustrators that don't often get the fame and recognition as some of the artists at bigger companies like DC, Marvel, or Image...this book is one of the funniest comics i have ever read and it was released by Evil Propaganda...it contains a bunch of short stories with some of the most hilarious dialogue and characters ever...you got a paranoid crack addict, a delusional psychopath, an alien spy, and more...this book is a perfect example of why the underground is always cooler than the mainstream, whether you're talking comics, music, movies, whatever...i scanned each page and collected them all together in one folder as jpegs, so if you're looking for something a little off the wall and funny, read this book

The Bastard Noise


heres my vote for the top 5 albums of 2010 so far...
5. Misery Index - Heirs To Thievery
4. High On Fire - Snakes For The Divine
3. Rompeprop - Gargle Cummics
2. Integrity - The Blackest Curse
1. Bastard Noise - A Culture Of Monsters
i just got my copy of the new Bastard Noise LP on limited edition blue vinyl and im super stoked about it! this record is killer!! BN pick up right where they left off with The Red List (split with The Endless Blockade) mind blowing basslines, sick vocals, intelligent lyrics, insane noise, pummeling drums...its pretty much the culmination of everything that i enjoy about music, fused into one amazing band and one amazing record...i urge you all to buy this now before its too late...the album is limited to 600 color copies, 200 white, 200 red, and 200 blue...trust me its totally worth it...and while you're waiting on your record to arrive in the mail, you should check out this awesome video that was made by none other than J. Randall from Agoraphobic Nosebleed fame...its a pretty funny video and a really great Bastard Noise song...all hail The Skull! http://www.mediafire.com/?ehovfmmgzxm

Stikky - Spamthology

in 1985 the California music scene would be forever changed for the better by one of the most under appreciated and truly authentic hardcore bands to ever grace the stage, im talking about the one and only, Stikky...they were a three piece powerhouse of hardcore punk fury, consisting of Chris Dodge and Chris and Todd Wilder...these guys were amazing, seriously, i wish i could have had the privilege of seeing them live at one of the many Gilman St. shows they played...one of the tightest bands you could ever hear and also incredibly energetic and fun...they don't take themselves too seriously and you can tell by listening to this album that these dudes were purely in it for the good times and love of the music...theres plenty of between track banter on this 'Spamthology' and its pretty funny to hear the way these guys carry on with each other...i wish there were more bands like this...i also wish that Stikky had released more material...this album came out in 1997, long after the band had broken up, and its currently out of print...Chris Dodge started Slap A Ham Records back in the mid '80's and was responsible for quite a few awesome releases before the label called it quits...i don't think i've ever come across this online so i decided to post it here because i feel like this is, without a doubt, a must hear album...if you like punk, hardcore, power violence, Slap A Ham Records, cheese, Fonzie, or awesome music in general, then check this shit out now!! http://www.mediafire.com/?zlewumci0md
i personally feel that this idea is pure genius right here! why the fuck don't they make jars like this?!! it makes perfect sense...STIKKY, you are wise beyond your years

The Hawkwind Triad

here is a 3 way split album by U.S. Christmas, Harvestman, and Minsk...the concept is that each band does a few cover songs originally performed by the band Hawkwind...i gotta say, i was never a huge Hawkwind fan, i mean, i'd heard some of their stuff before and thought it was okay but not anything i'd listen to all the time, and i love Lemmy, but Motorhead is more my taste than his other band, Hawkwind...but now im beginning to think maybe i've underestimated them...either that or these 3 bands have an uncanny ability to make Hawkwind songs sound super fucking badass! this is a great record, i highly recommend expanding your mind to this densely layered and textured, experimental, psychedelic rock masterpiece...the album clocks in at over 78 minutes so you got plenty of time to get baked, drop a hit or two, or do whateva ya gotta do to get to that spiritual plain of sonic enlightenment...this is some of the best Harvestman that i've ever heard, and i think its because Von Till is actually singing on these tracks as opposed to the rest of the Harvestman albums that are mainly instrumental...Steve Von Till is one artist that i have nothing but mad respect for, the guy has just got soul, i don't know what else to say, he has a way of making me feel the emotion and energy in his music, more so than just about anyone else i can think of...and the other two bands on this split are kick ass too...i've been a fan of Minsk ever since i subjected myself to "The Ritual Fires Of Abandonment" and was lifted onto another level of consciousness and perception...and U.S. Christmas has never sounded better than on this record, really spacey, really trippy, and really cool...if you want a break from the daily grind then check out this album and free your mind!

Addicted To Grind


i always think its fun to change the lyrics in crappy songs and make them about something cool, i mean, you can take the worst song ever and just with a few lyrical interjections here and there, make it into something really funny and worth hearing...i guess everybodys got a little Weird Al in them and im not any different...i usually end up taking songs and making them about grindcore, heavy metal, gore, horror, perverted stuff, and the like...and i have a dream...a dream to one day release all of my retarded, reworked, cover songs as a full length album...i would do the music too, except i would change the style to fit the lyrics and attitude i want to convey but at the same time, still keeping it recognizable to the listener as a tune that they've probably heard before...i have a ton of ideas, many different lyrics written but i have yet to take the time to arrange all the music...like i said, its a dream...but heres a few of the tracks i would do if the said album was ever completed...the Rolling Stones hit, "Get Off Of My Cloud" would become "Get Outta My Bowels" the song "Where Have All The Flowers Gone?" by Peter, Paul, And Mary would be "Where Have All The Sick Fucks Gone?" and my newest twist on a classic 80's tune "Addicted To Love" by Robert Palmer, now becomes, "Addicted To Grind" i recently played the actual Robert Palmer song and sang my new lyrics over top of it for a friend of mine and he convinced me that it would be worth posting the lyrics and the mp3 of the song on here for everyone else to listen to and sing along with because its pretty damn funny...i have a hard time making it through the whole song without laughing myself, but then again i did write this muthafucka so im somewhat biased...i hope ya'll enjoy...

ADDICTED TO GRIND

the records on, inside your home
its grind, its all you own
your head bangs, your body shakes
you raise your fist, express your hate

you can't fake, the blastbeat
theres no doubt, your growls deep

Whoa, you like to listen to Exhumed cause you're tough, oh yeah
Carcass and Brutal Truth, yeah Sayya-dina is real fine
you know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to grind

you blast your mind, to set you free
you're grinding at a different speed
the drums beat, in double time
another night of fucking grind, some motherfucking grind
Unholy Grave
Cephalic Carnage is all you crave
if theres some gore, thats cool with you
you don't mind some Soldered Poon

Whoa, your slogan reads that In Grindcore We Crust, oh yeah
Crotchduster, Napalm Death, Phobia or Rotten Sound
you know you're gonna have to face it, you're in the underground
might as well face it, you're addicted to grind
might as well face it, you're addicted to grind
might as well face it, you're addicted to grind
might as well face it, you're addicted to grind
might as well face it, you're addicted to grind
(gurgle gurgle, yeah) *guitar solo

the records on, inside your home
its grind, its all you own
your head bangs, the speakers grind
another song, you'll lose your mind

Whoa, Relapse ripped you off with their series of slime, oh yeah
its closer to the truth, that they are just losing touch
you know they're gonna have to face it they get weaker with time
might as well face it, they faked out on the grind
might as well face it, shitty bands they did sign
might as well face it, they are falling behind
might as well face it, i'll look elsewhere for grind
might as well face it, im addicted to grind (*start fade out)
might as well face it, im addicted to grind
might as well face it, im addicted to grind

Wesley Willis

on May 31 we celebrate the life of one of the greatest people to ever walk the face of the earth...no im not talking about some american soldier that died, because its Memorial Day...im talking about the most creative, inspiring, funny, talented, and all around awesomest dudes you could ever have hoped to meet...the one, the only, Wesley Willis...this guy is my fucking hero, seriously...and on this holiday i take time to remember the lovable giant genius that brought us such hits as 'Cut The Mullet', 'I Wupped Batman's Ass', 'The Vultures Ate My Dead Ass Up', 'Suck A Cheetah's Dick', and so many more...May 31 is his birthday and if he hadn't tragically died from complications with myelogenous leukemia in 2003, he would have been 47...in his musical career he has released over 50 albums, not to mention the hundreds of sketches, paintings, and drawings he has done of his hometown city of Chicago...there will never be anyone else quite like Wesley, he has brought endless laughter and joy to his countless friends and fans across the world and his memory and legacy will live on forever in the hearts and minds of everyone who has listened to his music or were lucky enough to have bumped heads with him sometime during his magical, albeit too brief, amazing life...ok, so enough with the mushy stuff...i loved the guy like a milkshake, but i know he wouldn't want anyone to be depressed...in fact, if he were here right now i think he'd probably say 'suck a woolly mammoth's cock with miracle whip' or something else hilarious along those lines...if theres one thing that Wesley Willis has taught me, its that no matter what obstacles you are faced with in life, if you work hard and put all of your effort into something, theres no telling what you can accomplish and the impact you can have on the rest of society...oh yeah, and i also learned, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that Batman is a fool! hahaha...R.I.P. W.W. no more yelldown warhellrides now, nothing but harmony joy music forever! check out this video of Wesley being interviewed by guerrilla journalist and radio personality, Nardwuar..."taco bell will make you take a poop" truer words have never been spoken my friend

Pulling Teeth

in 2006 hardcore got a little more awesome with the release of this album by Pulling Teeth...these dudes hail from the place of my birth, Baltimore, Maryland (Go Orioles!) and i couldn't be more proud to share the same origins as these hardcore juggernauts...their sound really makes me think of Agnostic Front, the vocals definitely got that Roger Miret flair but something about the music too...this is a killer album by a killer band, mastered by the great Scott Hull so the sound is incredible, and it even includes a few bonus videos...Dwid Hellion is down with these guys and he edited one of their videos so thats enough hardcore street cred for me...Pulling Teeth are for real...check out this album and then watch the bonus videos, or vice versa, your call

Grog, Roadside Burial, & PussyVibes

brand new 3 way split from a few of the most asskicking gore/porn/grind bands on the scene...i fucking love this release! Grog starts it off with 6 tracks of killer gore/porngrind and their last track is a Nuclear Assault cover song which totally blew me away, caught me by surprise, and then caused me to reminisce for a moment on how awesome thrash used to be and how awesome Danny Lilker still is...you Nuclear Assault fans out there know what im talkin about...anyway, so next comes the murderous goregrind stylings of Roadside Burial...i have to admit i wasn't too familiar with this band before this release but they fucking rule...really good groovy, heavy, hardcore riffs and nice deathy vocals...i thought it was great...and finally we have, last, but certainly not least, one of my favorite porno/gore/sci fi grind bands (see an earlier post) the mighty PussyVibes! how awesome are these guys? they write songs about martian bitches that will rape you...so yeah, pretty fucking awesome...all of their tracks on this release have to do with martians, particularly of the female persuasion...i really liked the track 'Devil Girls From Mars'...the band had posted that song on their myspace page prior to releasing the album and once i heard it, i knew i had to have this shit...3 ways don't get much better than this...unless you're in an actual 3 way with like real women and stuff...that might be a little better, but we all know that shit ain't gonna happen so you might as well throw on this 3 way split and rock out with your cock out...stroll out with your pole out...hang out with your wang out...jam out with your ram out...you get the picture

Leng Tch'e - Hypomanic

here is the brand new album from Aussie razorgrind assassins, Leng Tch'e...this band has been one of my favs since their 2005 album, Process Of Elimination...i was a bit skeptical upon hearing that they had recruited a new singer, as i was a big fan of El Bastardo and thought his vocals really fit the mood and intensity of the music...but i gotta tell ya, this new guy can growl it out with the best of em and im definitely impressed with his style and range, in fact theres one song (Totalitarian) on this new album that i had to stop and replay a few times because i could swear that i heard Barney Greenway from Napalm Death in there for a second...this album was actually produced by the same guy that has done some Napalm Death and Brujeria albums so maybe Barney did sneak in there for a guest spot, or maybe i should do more research before i start talking out my ass, but whatever the case, this new singer, Serge, is a great vocalist and a perfectly acceptable replacement for El Bastardo (who left the band of his own accord, by the way) for anyone who might be asking themselves "what the hell is a Leng Tch'e?" their name is translated into 'Death By A Thousand Cuts', which is an ancient Chinese method of torture and execution...the band also has an album by the same name, so there ya go, a little knowledge to go with your grind...check out this latest, greatest, lethal lacerating LP by Leng Tch'e, and try not to cut yourself

Integrity - The Blackest Curse

"its my birthday and i'll do what i want to, fuck you, its my birthday, special holiday only for me so do what i say! thanx mom didn't have an abortion or my birthday wouldn't be today, so i guess its my good fortune my birthdays today, okay" - The Vandals....its with good reason that i quote the mighty punk rock gods, the Vandals, for today is indeed the day in which i was spewed forth into this world, and i can think of no better way to celebrate than to be rocking the brand new album by one of my favorite bands of all time...i mean none other than hardcore legends, Integrity! a complete full length album of all new original material is what we have here, and i'd just like to take a moment to thank Integrity for this wonderful birthday present and for all of their music, lyrics, attitude, imagery, emotion, and inspiration they've provided throughout the years...their music has been a big part of my life, helped me in overcoming barriers at pivotal moments in my life and will always hold a special place in my heart...so its with great pride that i bring to you the newest installment in a hardcore legacy, The Blackest Curse...this album rules, its just as simple as that, to try and explain to you how awesome it is would just be an exercise in futility, as anyone who has listened to this band before would know, they fucking rule! so of course you can expect nothing less than awesome with this new offering

Dread - Cerebral Mutation

this is the brand new full length album by Italy's answer to groovy kickass death metal, Dread...what, you haven't heard of them? thats because this is their first full length album and what an introduction they've made to the metal community! i love finding out about new bands...theres probably a new band started everyday somewhere in the world, but amidst all the garbage and bullshit thats out there, every once in awhile you come across a gem that makes the neverending quest of finding new music worth it all...this is a great rockin death metal album, simple as that...these guys toured last year with Jungle Rot, which makes a lot of sense because they have that same groovy, headbangin, mosh it up style of death metal that Jungle Rot plays so well...i expect this band to be going places, and then again maybe im wrong and they might never release another cd, who the fuck knows? but regardless, this album is a very good debut and definitely worth a listen

2 For The Price Of 1

you've heard the expression "in one ear and out the other" well, this story gives a 'hole' new meaning to the phrase...check this shit out...this 70 year old man decided, fuck it, i've lived a long time, its starting to suck, i keep shittin in my pants, im too old to get it up anymore, and i can't find work, so i might as well blast my brains out...seems logical enough, right?...so he lays down in bed next to his sleeping wife, probably saying goodbye to her as she dreams old lady dreams of snuggies and yard sales and pinching little children on the cheeks, and then he proceeds to shoot himself in the head...but what this poor, depressed man didn't consider is that despite hearing from his wife his entire life that he had a thick skull, his skull wasn't nearly thick enough to stop a high speed bullet from traveling directly through it and coming out the other side to also explode the brain of his sleeping, innocent wife lying next to him...i thought this was a crazy story so i decided to pass it along...the moral of the story is to be aware of your surroundings and think about what repercussions your actions might have...if you wanna kill yourself, fine, but take a look at the people around you first, they might not want to die just because your wrinkly old ass decides its time to check out

Guttural Decay - Epoch Of Racial Extermination

the essence of groovy guttural goregrind has been cultivated and poured onto plastic disc in the form of this new cd by Guttural Decay...these guys bring you nothing but sick vocals, heavy riffs, groovy drums and a buttload of brutality...you won't get any fancy solos or intricate math chords with this release...this is straight up brutal goregrind that pulls no punches and will knock you flat on your ass with sheer raw power...if you're tired of the trendy bullshit that so many bands try to pull, like 'how many riffs and solos can we fit into one song?' and 'how long and gross can we make our song titles?' then your prayers have been answered as this band chooses to hearken back to the days of simplicity and brutality in metal...a solid release from a solid band, and the last track is a Devourment cover! so don't be gay, check out some Guttural Decay!

Santa Claus Vs. Flava Flavs Retarded Half Cousin

this is one of the awesomest videos i've seen on youtube in a long time...a good friend of mine brought it to my attention because its just super fucking badass...ok, well actually the man they call Vietnam Tom is a super badass from hell...hes a 67 year old white man, resembling what the result would be if the Macho Man Randy Savage and Papa Smurf were somehow fused together into one body...and that body was forced to ride a bus and has a very low tolerance for shit talking scumbags...it all started peacefully enough, when the old man was riding on a bus one day going god knows where, and along came a black man, with nothing better to do than to run his mouth and talk a lot of shit, with absolutely nothing to back it up...well ol Vietnam Tom lets him have it, and im telling you this shit is righteous! i dunno if hes having a flashback from the war or what, but its obvious that his rage meter is off the charts and hes about to unleash a vicious ten hit knockout combo, the likes of which is rarely seen outside of the Tekken Arena...i wish we could see more of the blows that he landed but the camera moves during all the commotion, but trust me, once you see what the black mans face looks like after Tom had a go at it with his 67 year old lunchbox fists of fury, you'll think twice before fucking with the next senior citizen you meet...you might just get yo muthafuckin ass stomped by a geriatric giant with a santa claus beard...a quick word to the wise, i think Ice Cube said it best, "you best check yoself, befoe you wriggity wreck yoself, muthafucka!!" apparently this is the one black man that has never heard that song...oh well, his loss, our amusement...check out the Bus Terminal Beatdown!

Auto Tony

heres a great prank call from the professional phony phone call duo of Richard and Sal, from the Howard Stern show...the show had just received an auto tuner machine or program or whatever and Howard had been fucking around with it and i personally thought it was hilarious...but Sal has taken it to the next level by calling a pizza shop and placing an order using the auto tuning device...the result is a really funny call, even the girl taking the order had to laugh...he uses the moniker, Auto Tony, and gives the entire order in auto tuned hilarity...i think he probably could've gotten into that girls pants if he wanted to, she seemed like she was digging the call but i think once Sal whipped out his gross, uncircumcised penis and asked her to look inside his "pouch" she'd be running for the hills...anyway, super funny call, like i said in an earlier post, the whole auto tune thing always cracks me up...so if you're like me, then you'll dig this

Brain Drill - Quantum Catastrophe


















quick, somebody get me a mirror, i think my face has melted off and i look like the guy from the cover of the new Brain Drill album...after listening to this technical death metal masterpiece, i feel like my brain has been thrown into a washing machine and its stuck on the spin cycle...these dudes are incredibly talented and i have to admit that i usually don't go for this kind of death metal...most "technical" bands i listen to, im just like "ok, i get it, you know how to play guitar really well, thats great, now wheres the fucking breakdowns?!" but there are always exceptions to the rule and this band is one of them...they play the most insane technical shit you could think of, but do it in a way that you don't feel like you're just listening to a death metal guitar clinic...the riffs are all over the place but somehow the songs have structure and don't just sound like a collage of random riffs loosely thrown together...and i love it when everything stops for 2 seconds and the bass does a crazy intricate fill and then the rest of the band comes full blast back into the song...it really shows how tight the band is, the way they can stop and start on a dime like that...great stuff...if you want something to melt your face off and blow your puny little human mind, then this is the album for you

Misery Index - Heirs To Thievery

fuck yes!! finally, the new Misery Index cd is here!! i love Dying Fetus and kickass death metal in general so this cd was a no brainer...it absolutely shreds and fucking slays 90% of whats out there right now....this is their fourth album entitled 'Heirs To Thievery' and if you have a desire for more killer death metal in your inventory of mp3s, then look no further, as these guys rip and tear through 11 tracks of pure unadulterated death fucking grind...it pretty much rules, nuff said

More Metal Than You


heres a quick Brian Posehn update...he has just officially released the first video from his new, critically acclaimed, stand up comedy album, 'Fart And Wiener Jokes'...this video is a song called 'More Metal Than You', Posehn does vocals while an established group of guest musicians come together to create the music...this video fucking rules! theres awesome animation and the song is just plain funny...i love the line "King Diamond sent me a Christmas card, im more metal than you!"...this is a great video from one of the funniest dudes on the planet...i took 'roids with Peter Steele, so im more metal than all of you...haha...sorry Type O fans, too soon?

One Man's Sewage Is Another Man's Sammich!

back to the grind...heres an album from 2006 that i really liked at the time and someone mentioned something the other day that made me think about it so i decided to give it another spin and then post it on here...one of the best band names and album titles of recent memory, here we have Sewage Sammich with 'One Man's Sewage Is Another Man's Sammich!' these guys play crazy, spastic, and almost schizophrenic grindcore with a flair for the comical side of grind, which i like a lot...some clever and amusing song titles include 'Bongwaterbed', 'Retarded Chicks Don't Care If I Have AIDS', 'Black Guy Pees', and 'Surfin' With Satan' it was mastered by Scott Hull at his Visceral Sound studio in Maryland and the production is great, something you don't always hear a lot of in grindcore...i don't think these guys have released anything since this album but im hungry for more

Melvins - The Bride Screamed Murder

here is the brand new 2010 album of all new and original tunes by the Melvins...i know theres probably a lot of haters out there like, "how can you listen to grindcore and death metal and then like the Melvins?" to them i'd just like to say, "fuck off, your opinion means nothing to me because i know im right"...i like good music, simple as that, i don't really care what genre it happens to fall under or whether its socially or culturally acceptable...and the Melvins play good music...period...i've been listening to this band since i was 11 and that was like 20 fucking years ago! how many bands can you think of that have endured for that long and not lost their flavor? a few, sure, but not many and i personally think that this newest incarnation of the band is by far the best ever...two of the members also perform in the Melvinesque rock band Big Business (who are also rad, if you like Melvins, you'll like them) and these guys really add to the creativity and musicianship of the already kickass King Buzzo...its definitely worth a listen, and if you don't like it, go throw on the new Justin Bieber cd, faggot!

Nevermore is a bunch of dicks

i'll keep this post short and to the point...fuck power metal, fuck metal bands that are in it for the money and not for the music, and most importantly fuck Nevermore, forevermore...money grubbin, jaded douchebags

P.I.S.S. - I Will Never Go To School

this video is the best job of audio/video synchronization that i've ever seen...and probably one of the funniest fucking things i've ever seen too...its a video by hardcore glam rockers, KISS...except there is a twist...someone has removed the KISS audio and replaced it with the most brilliant and absurd song you will ever hear....the band is called P.I.S.S. and they play a super weird and really funny song called 'I Will Never Go To School'...you have to see this video! i cannot stress that enough...the way the music links up with the video is incredible and just adds to the hilarity of it all...whoever made this did a really good job and i'd like to thank them..."i was paid to fly with you Batman!" "you are bad, Phil" ahahaha...this shit kills !
