HOLY WAR as The Misfits

HOLY WAR    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP

Happy Fucking Halloween. To get you in the mood, check out some quality Misfits covers by Holy War. They are a band from Rochester, NY that I have mentioned before, this looks to be their 2nd recording. It's always scary when a band tries to cover The Misfits, but they pull it off well, not to mention the amazing cover photo.

BLADE OF THE RIPPER - Taste The Blade

BLADE OF THE RIPPER    ☼    FACEBOOK   MERCH

Over the weekend I was feeling a little nostalgic so I busted out my copy of "Taste The Blade" from 2008 by Blade Of The Ripper, who hail from my home state of Kentucky. Shit is so good. So, I decided to put it up here and hopefully it's new to someone out there. Blade Of The Ripper started as another band called Brothers Of Conquest. The band contains members of legendary bands like The Hookers, Nine Pound Hammer & Nashville Pussy. So, if you're up to hearing some evil-as-fuck punk rock from the heart of KY, dig in.

ELIZABETH - New 7" & New-ish LP

EZBTH    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP  HOMEPAGE

Elizabeth is an incredible band from Geneva, Switzerland that has been around since 2009. Mixing hardcore & punk in an interesting way, there truly isn't another band out there that I can compare them too. It goes without saying they are one of my favorites. A couple months ago, they put out an LP that combined their previous demo & EP. I've been waiting for something new from them and now I have it. Their new 7" is now available and it does not disappoint. Both the new 7" and the LP are available for free download on Bandcamp and I highly encourage you to buy copies of both as well. See below...


OPEN GRAVES - All I've Learned is Death and Anxiety

OPEN GRAVES    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP    TWITTER

Open Graves is a 5-piece from Fairmont, WV that's been around for a few years. They just released an excellent 7-song EP and they are cool enough dudes to let you grab it for free. It was recorded by a guy in Ancient Shores, another fine WV band. This is an interesting EP. It starts off with "Discomfort", which contains about 10 different riffs and off-kilter string bends that would make Chris Colohan and the boys from Burning Love proud. I thought this was how the rest of it was going to go, and I was definitely OK with that thought, but then things got weird, in a good way. The rest of the EP devolves & evolves into all sorts of excellently executed hardcore spanning various genres. Some of it slows down and you get the kind of mystery you find in the new Centuries LP. Some of it is sludgey, some of it borders on (dare I say) math core, or whatever kids call it these days. And a lot of it is just good, healthy, kick you in the gut, hardcore that kind of reminds me of Globe And Beast or the new Withers. Either way, it's full of minor chords, negativity and anger, which is really all you need to know. Also, the title of the EP is great and for a bonus, their amazing logo combines 2 of my favorite things, Evil and the Masons. Get this now.

Entombed are the Godfathers of Death N' Roll. There really isn't much more to say. If you don't know who they are or don't really like them, you are probably at the wrong blog. They've been doing this crazy re-issue campaign where you can pledge money upfront to get re-issues of “DCLXVI – To Ride Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth”, “Same Difference” 
and “Uprising” in various formats. Their goal has already been reached but you can still put your order in. Throughout the pledge drive, they've been dishing out cool things like unseen videos & pictures, and today they released some killer demos. Just don't tell them that you got them here, I don't want them to come to my house and beat my ass.

UNATTENDED FUNERAL - Self Titled

UNATTENDED FUNERAL    ☼    BANDCAMP

My buddy Phill from Slovakia told me to check out this band that his friends play in. Unattended Funeral. At first I was like, damn that's a badass name for a band. Then I listened to their 4-song tape. Did you read the words at the top of this page? Those words are "Blackened Hardcore, Crust, D-Beat, Powerviolence, Death & Grind". In 4 songs, Unattended Funeral has managed to encapsulate nearly every one of those descriptors. The band is a 3-piece that has been around for a few years and contains members of Boiling Point & Möbius. With quotes on their Bandcamp page like "Only Death Shall Unite Us All" and "A Desperate Call For An Utter Annihilation Of Mankind", you can feel a dark cloud gather overhead as you listen to this. They sound like a doom band that doesn't play doom. Fucking brilliant. The band self-released 100 copies of this tape, email them to see if they still have any left. Otherwise, turn this shit all the way up.

RUINED FAMILIES

RUINED FAMILIES    ☼    FACEBOOOK    BANDCAMP    BLOG    TWITTER

"Blank Language" is the follow-up LP to Ruined Families' fierce debut "Four Wall Freedom". The Greek hardcore punk band, finding itself standing in the midst of an urban wasteland of social unrest, utilizes and reverses the surrounding generalized fear for open approaches, in order to develop a widespread sonic angle on this new record. While their 1st record and 7" were more straight-ahead hardcore, this new LP is WAY MORE atmospheric, with brief flashes of post-rock & screamo, but still hardcore at heart. Think Young And In The Way meets Sonic Youth. The band is getting ready to start a Oct/Nov European tour in a few days, check their Facebook page for dates. In the meantime, grab their releases below and if you like it, give them some $$$ at their Bandcamp page or buy their records.

WAARFACE    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP

Waarface is an Austin based hardcore/d-beat band consolidating members from past and present projects such as Night Siege, Cronis, and Shortround. They have a 4-song demo out that shreds. No, seriously. There are these breakdowns that totally put me back into my high school headbanging days, and then your whipped right back into some blackened crust. You can tell these guys were raised on some old school metal and punk rock. Definitely for fans of Entombed, Slayer or Hessian. I hope they stay together and record some more soon. They kick off an East Coast tour tomorrow, here are the dates. Check them out if you can.

Jesus Christ, this band just steamrolled my head. Vicious grindviolence out of Minsk, which is either in Belarus, The Ukraine, Poland or Russia. I'm an idiot in America and I can't figure it out, especially after listening to this mayhem. Mulct appears to be a 5-piece that has released 3 tapes so far. Each one is incredibly devastating, and if you are into any kind of grind or powerviolence, then they should be right up your filthy alley.

BLACK VEINS - 7" & New Demos

BLACK VEINS    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP    SOUNDCLOUD    BLOG   BIG CARTEL   TWITTER   TUMBLR

Black Veins is a trio out of Birmingham, UK that's been around for a few years. Why is it that 3-piece bands always sound so MASSIVE? And being from Birmingham, crushing eardrums is in their DNA. This band always draws a lot of comparisons to Trap Them, Converge & Nails. I hear that a lot, about a lot of different bands. But I'm here to tell you that Black Veins truly sounds like a fight to the death between these 3 bands. I mean, MY GOD THE VOCALS. They will kill you in your sleep. The overall production is perfect and you'd be hard pressed to find a more complete 7" release this year. And the good news is that they are working on an LP. If you were worried that their follow up might not live up to the intensity of the debut, stop worrying. I've got 3 demos from the upcoming full length for you, and they are every bit as damaging as the 7". Give them a listen and keep an eye out for the new record.

CHORYGEN - Self Titled

CHORYGEN    ☼    BANDCAMP

Chorygen is a new d-beat hardcore band from Poland with a ton of crust & sludge tendencies. The band features members of ALERT! ALERT! & 45 Revolutions Per Minute. Unfortunately that's about all I know about this band, but their 8-song debut is a total assault. It's scary and threatening, and I love it. Think Alpinist, but more desperate sounding.  I only found one description of the band online, it's either a bad translation or the best review ever. You decide!
"New on the Polish scene. As with bands of Lodz - texts as the most depressing and sad . Musically, d-beat time played faster, slower time. Tracks are preparing for, so maybe before Gigi hear any recordings. in the composition of such people from 45 Revolutions Per Minute and Alert! Alert!." - TEKTURA

CHEAP ART - S/T Tape & Desocialized 7"

CHEAP ART    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP

Cheap Art is a fastcore powerviolence/grind band from Atlanta, GA. They started out as a 3-piece, releasing an EP, then added a badass mamacita to handle the vocals and put out a 14-song (!!) 7". This band is full throttle raging from beginning to end. Short blast beats right to your fucking head. Think Dead In The Dirt or Full Of Hell, but faster, more spastic, and pissed off. And the new female vocals are devastating! Another bonus is that their guitarist plays a Univox Hi-Flier, the best guitar on Earth.

**EDIT** - The band is back to being a 3-piece as Avra has left on good terms...shit.

SARABANTE- LP & 7"

SARABANTE    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP    BLOG

Sarabante is a hardcore punk/crust band from Athens, Greece. Formed in late 2006, the band went through a fairly uneventful and inactive period involving a few changes in the initial line-up. In early 2010, the band reformed and the line-up was finally completed with its current members. They have since then finished recording their first full length album Remnants, which had originally started early 2008. This is an amazing LP. It's everything you want in a European crust record. It reminds me a lot of Hierophant. A 2-song 7" was also released in 2013, and while it leans towards a more produced metallic sound, it's still damn good. Get both of these.

STOCKPILE    ☼    BANDCAMP    BLOG

Stockpile was a band from Philadelphia, PA that existed 2010-2012. They just put up their 2 EP's and I was able to find their demo for you. Vicious vocals and a breakneck pace are the standard of this band, and they definitely lean towards the punk end of the hardcore spectrum. Also, they may be the first band on this blog that doesn't down-tune their guitars, usually a cardinal sin. But they pull it off. Check them out.

OUR MOTHERS SUNS    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP

Our Mothers Suns is a 2-piece (?) band from the UK. Don't know anything else about them. They just put up a 4-song EP that is as beautiful as it is hardcore. This is literally the closest thing to "melodic" hardcore that you will ever see on this blog. So if you hate that stuff, stay away I guess. I can't help but be reminded of old Dischord bands when I hear the vocals. Call me crazy but I like this. Decide for yourself.

No music to post tonight, so I thought I'd share a video I made. It's the song Magic Fingers from the Cursed album III: Architects Of Trouble Sleep, set to a great scene from the movie The Devil Rides Out (A.K.A. The Devil's Bride). All hail The Goat of Mendes! The Devil himself!!

SLUMP / LIFE ENDS

SLUMP    ☼    BANDCAMP    BLOG    ╪    LIFE ENDS    ☼    BANDCAMP    FACEBOOK

Another double-post today, this time featuring 2 bands from Germany that have been around for a little while. Slump is from Mannheim and features members of Planks and Gun Mob, while Life Ends is from Lahr. Slump may still be a functioning band as they played a festival in June, but I don't think Life Ends is still around. Feel free to correct me in the comments. Anyway, I just discovered them recently so I'm mentioning them now. Sorry if this is old news to you. They are both raging grindcore crust bands that definitely have that "German hardcore" sound. Blistering production, perfect guitars and drums, scathing vocals and tons of riffs. They did a split LP together along with a few previous releases. You can see below that there seems to be 2 versions of the Slump side of the split LP. The recording may be the same, but they definitely sound WAY different. Maybe my Deutsch partner, David, will be able to shed some more light on this. The least he could do was type out all these God-damned German song names!

AVHATH / HAUL

AVHATH    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP    ╪    HAUL    ☼    FACEBOOK    BANDCAMP

I usually don't combine bands, but this time, it seems fitting. Avhath & Haul are both metallic hardcore bands from Indonesia. They recently did a split 7" together that just fucking RULES. Their other releases are also pretty good, leaning a little more to the metallic side of metallic hardcore, but my God, this split is a monster. I'm feeling a little lazy tonight so I will just let their own descriptions & influences speak for themselves:

HAUL:
Biography - formed in mid late 2010, combining every heavy elements of metal and hardcore from its darkest capacity, Haul will bring you to meet your death
Description - our music is desrcibed as cold, heavy and loud with assault riffs, destructive beats and apocalyptic lyrics

Endless Swarm is an absolutely smothering powerviolence/grind band from Edinburgh featuring members of Black Talon and Horrors That You've Seen. I don't know much more about this new band, but I will tell you that this 9-song EP is 10 minutes of murky, grinding punishment. If you're a fan of Shitstorm, IRA Graves or, of course, The Swarm, you're going to be quite pleased with this.

Cruel Friends is a brand new all-star band from Germany (of course) featuring ex-members of Geraniüm, Gun Mob, Ende/Aus, Post War Depression & Attention Armageddon. Now, I can tell you this, Gun Mob is one of the best hardcore crust bands I have ever heard. Imagine Aplinist & Cursed being thrown into a blender together. Even though this is only 3 songs recorded at a practice, you can tell Cruel Friends is in this same vein of potential greatness. They just played their 1st show in August with another one coming up this month with Henry Fonda. I cannot wait to hear some proper recordings of this band.
