Humans The Size Of Microphones-Human Crop Circles LP (2016)

Country: United Kingdom
Genre: Hardcore, Punk, Screamo
Label: Degraanrepubliek/Super-Fi Records
Tracks: 10
Length: 37.0'

HTSOM, although an obscure noughties-era UK outfit that didn't get out of the South coast area much, were utterly amazing. A crashing, bashing, chaotic agglomeration of old-skool Ebullition styled emo, their live shows were legendary, and not just because they sometimes wore massive afro wigs or the bassist used an old pair of trouwers for a strap. Drummer John recorded this at his own studio, where various luminaries such as Electric Wizard, No, Facel Vega, Hunting Lodge and Field Boss have also recorded. HTSOM were in fact slated to do a split with Electric Wizard at one point. This lp compiles their demo and 5 unreleased tracks which are just too good to be unheard  (Press Note)

ORDER OF THE VULTURE


LOCATION: PORTLAND, OREGON
FFO: GORDON LIGHTFOOT, THE LITTLE RIVER BAND, SUPERTRAMP

so I'm sitting here in ohio where a couple days ago it was70 degrees and today was 50 mph winds and snowing at points. 30 degrees outside right now. I'm running a fever. I'm wrapped up in a blanket and currently have what feels like a cow sitting on my chest and have some leakage from the nostrils that appears to some kind of soquid. it leaks. turns crusty. it leaks some more. awesome. been in a black metal mood lately. lots of order of the vulture. the ives "abandon" demo. currently have gaul (seriously check that shit out) in the earbuds. healthy doses of darkthrone, craft, and Carpathian forest too. I think the cover above tells you what youre getting into here. black metal played by punks. plenty of leather. no corpse paint. just some fun little ditties to sing along with the family on your way to church. theres an oncoming candlemass storm. wanted to get this up before I'm consumed by a week of the best renaissance fair metal on the planet.
