Path of Destruction "1:00 a.m" ep [Havoc records]

2010-07-29T12:59:00.000-07:00

Minneapolis hardcore crust punk at it's most tough and brutal. This band started originally with Chad of Calloused on Drums, Link of Pontious Pilate on bass, Big Rick of Code 13, Rat Bastards, Dead Drunk, Motherfuckers, Impulse Manslaughter etc. on guitar and Andy Hefner on vocals. They recorded a 7" for Sin Fronteras and a split ep with Minneapolis metallic crust core band Provoked. The main influence here is Poison Idea and when you spin this sucker you will Feel the Darkness. But it's hard to really nail these guys down as punk, hardcore or crust since their style really draws on elements prevalent in all three subgenres for maximum impact. RM 15 ///USD 5

Tampere SS - Kuollut & Kuopattu 7"(Havoc Rec) SOLD OUT

Caustic Christ - Government Job 7"(Havoc Rec) SOLD OUT
While much of the hardcore scene is based on the energy and anger of the youth, there's something to be said for a band made up of bitter old guys. Years of experience and a complete lack of youthful idealism leave you with some truly raw, powerful, aggressive, no frills hardcore punk rock. Caustic Christ on this release take a "less is more" approach by stripping away the frivolity of fashion and getting down to the brass tacks. Here are five tracks of pure hc punk
animosity coming at you like the '79 Steelers "Wall of Steel." Look for them on tour as the live show is like a mallet to the head. Half the crowd will be stunned like they've been zapped with a tazer and the other half are jumping around like a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. Pittsburgh brings it...again. www.myspace.com/causticchrist RM 15

Brother Inferior/N.O.T.A split 7" (Havoc Rec)SOLD OUT
Anyone who knows me is aware that I don't really care for split records (despite the fact Destroy was on two) but this split was sort of a natural. Tulsa Oklahoma has produced two excellent hardcore punk bands in the last 20 years and here they are on one record. None of the Above were one of my favorite bands in the 80's powerful hardcore that was very catchy and lyrics any working class punk kid could relate to first hand. The songs here show a more matured NOTA
who have mellowed somewhat but still are very catchy. NOTA put out an LP on Rabid Cat around '84 that is a hardcore classic. There was also the Moscow 7" and Toy Soldiers 7" from the same time period. NOTA's reunion period saw the release of this 7" as well as the HellHole EP and Give 'Em Enough Dope CD, which includes a killer live set. Prank Records also re issued the Live at the Crystal Pistol cassette on vinyl NOTA have since broken up again. It's most
unfortunate the the 1985 LP and both original 7"s are still out of print due to contractual reasons. NOTA is one of the very best bands of the 80's and I will put cash money on the table any day to re issue these classic gems. Until then, dub or download the 1985 LP if you can, crucial!Brother Inferior caught my attention with their Blasphemy and Treason and Bound and Gagged EP's both on their own Sensual Underground Ministries label. Brother Inferior play hardcore punk which is powerful and melodic reminding me of old Youth Brigade and other classic Cali bands of the early 80's. I hate to categorize them though because their sound is their own and you can hear the thrash and street punk influences present in their music as well. Brother Inferior released their own LP on Sensual Underground and it has sold very well. Brother Inferior toured Europe in 1999 and released a tour 7" as well as a split 7" with Whorehouse of Representatives and the outstanding "Six More Reasons" 7". Brother Inferior broke up in 2000. Chad sang and and played guitar in Assembly of God and the Leveling.

Here 's some AGE records floating in blogosphere: "Inside darkness" ep, "Four wings" ep"The spider rules your emotions" ep.In "Blowing wind", AGE sound a little bit raw and fuzzy underneath the metallic riffs but not reaching the chaotic levels of Gloom or Extinct Government.

Vitamin X - Rip It Out 7" (Havoc Rec)SOLD OUT

VX takes their tried and true thrash sound to the next level. Building on the direction they were headed with the Bad Trip LP this 7" mixes full on thrash with some wild 70's rock riffs and leads. Before you think this is another "how we rock" or "fire and ice" you better chill out and recognize, it's still fast and furious, just with some wild and unique guitar work from Marc that's influenced by 70's hard rock. Essential for die hard fans or people who have never heard Vitamin X before.

Archatagus/Unholy Grave split 7" (Jerk off records)SOLD OUT
Archagathus' take on 'mincecore' borders more towards gutteral brutal-death vocals, while musically offering a more bass heavy version of Agathocles, which is totally cool in my book. I actually like it a bit better than some of Agathocles' back catalog. When I flipped over to the Unholy Grave side, I was greeted with a cold slab of power electronics. I tried listening closely, trying to find the Unholy Grave I knew. And then the intro faded. Unholy Grave
bring the bass on their side as well, blasting and blazing through four tracks of neo-mincecore grinding awesomeness. Some of my favorite Unholy Grave here folks. Fast, sloppy, ridiculously-bassy goodness.

KITO - 'The Long Player' LP - "Flat Earth records have a reputation second to none where the provision of quality hardcore is concerned, and Kito are among the finest outfits to have
risen in association with the label. Occupying the exact point where anarcho punk meets sludgecore, Kito unleash an unshakable barrage of guitars that pin you to the wall with the force of a 15 ton juggernaut. Rhythms come doused in brutality, riffs are delivered straight from the gut, and the whole thing is wrapped up so tightly it's a wonder the musicians aren't starved of oxygen. All of which adds up to one potent slab of vinyl." KERRANG (!!!?!)

Y is the 2nd full length of this 9 years old french emopunk band, 4 years after their debut album Laisser Vivre Les Squelettes, split recordings w/Ampere, Raein and Sed Non Satiata and tours all over Europe, US and Japan.

Named upon the 2 rivers joining in the center of their town (forming an Y viewed from the sky) their new album is locally focused, speaking about how a community can become dogmatic, as well as all it can bring in terms of radical subversion and satisfaction of being well organized.

Margaret Thrasher ‘Are You There God?’ 7" [Bistro Distro]
The Margaret Thrasher I'm talking about are three girls & one guy from Vancouver. Before headed on a European tour, they played their last show on this side of the ocean at the end of August. So no more Margaret Thrasher, unfortunately, and I never got to see them play. Skidge the guitarist is the one who wrote equalizing distort. Great zine outta Canada. This is intense. RM 15///USD 5

Path of Destruction ‘1:00 AM’ 7” [Havoc Records]
Minneapolis hardcore crust punk at it's most tough and brutal. This band started originally with Chad of Calloused on Drums, Link of Pontious Pilate on bass, Big Rick of Code 13, Rat Bastards, Dead Drunk, Motherfuckers, Impulse Manslaughter etc. on guitar and Andy Hefner on vocals. They recorded a 7" for Sin Fronteras and a split ep with Minneapolis metallic crust core band Provoked. The main influence here is Poison Idea and when you spin this sucker you will Feel the Darkness. But it's hard to really nail these guys down as punk, hardcore or crust since their style really draws on elements prevalent in all three subgenres for maximum impact. RM 15 ///USD 5

Snotty, Violent, pre-Deathside japanese style hc via '82 touch n go USHC, if that means anything. I dunno, it's good. If you already hate this scene this will probably just fuel your fire, but if you're real then you probably know these guys are part of one of the last bright spots on a seemingly dimming horizon. Glued full color sleeve which looks real nice and is a bit different looking than I expected with some sorta weird digital art combined with drawings. It looks pretty good though. RM 15///USD 5

Bongzilla nuggets CD [earwax records]SOLD OUT
For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of hearing Shake, it was, as its name suggested, a collection of singles released mainly on 7", or songs used for comps. Now, don't expect technical death metal or anything, early Bongzilla was still firmly rooted in the sludge vein, with Muleboy's trademark black lung vocals and some tasty feedback laced guitar riffs. You would expect from the boys of the bong, all the songs revolve around marijuana use.

2010-01-17T16:23:00.000-08:00

ARGENTINUM ASRUM "BLACK ALBUM" CD - "Argentinum Astrum sound like a bad hangover. They deliver headaches, blurred vision, and nausea in one untitled 26-minute track. This five-piece could astound black metal, doom, and noise artists alike by their originality. Argentinum Astrum push boundaries past mundane song structures. It's surprising how much variation they can fit in one track. Their best exists within the first five minutes. Feet march drunkenly. Feedback lingers before chords strike and drums crash. Before the riffs resume, feet stumble in a wave of warped oscillation. This riff-noise combination deceives four times, each one sounding as if the track will die. The band then muscles past these obstacles and continues with low-tuned, funeral doom. Meanwhile, Andrew Morrill's shrieking scream sounds like it could devour a small child.Their vigor doesn't stop there. From noise to doom, Argentinum Astrum conquer black metal after nine minutes. The chill is synonymous with the cover's white-on-black typography. Although the jewel case and one-page insert are boringly old-school, Argentinum Astrum make quality material.

Another month means another issue of MRR! The first issue of the next decade seems a good place to discuss the music of the decade we are leaving. MRR #320, the January 2010 issue, features numerous MRR columnists, shitworkers and reviewers pontificating on what went before musically, the platters that mattered in the, what do we call em, the zeroes? We also have interviews with cover stars from Japan, D-CLONE, Olympia Washington's BROKEN WATER, and streetpunks from the UK courtesy of CONTROL. There's also an interview with
author IAN GLASPER, who has just finished a three volume series on the UK underground, starting from the spiky punk of the early '80s in Burning
Britain, then moving on to the anarcho-punk scene with The Day the Country Died, and ending up with a book on the UK hardcore scene of the late '80s with Trapped in a Scene. As always we feature the most extensive punk music review section in print, plus all yer usual columnists... The cover was designed by Randy Ransome.

QUEST OF QUASAR - Nok-Tur-Nal TAPE
Review : This is pretty much what you might get if you mix some His Hero Is Gone/Uranus dark and heavy type of hardcore with some French scream/emo. It is heavy, dark and emotive with just a little bit of metal thrown in the mix. It is a pretty volatile mix of modern hardcore and will serve as a good soundtrack for the upcoming apocalypse. No joke. You don’t play this to get the people dancing happily on the dance floor. You play this to get people all pumped up about the end of this fucked up world. With all the bullshit that happening around us, who wouldn’t get pumped about the Armageddon? - Dead Pigs Zine
RM 6/ USD 4

Project Hopeless "Valkommen" tape
UK peace-punk-influenced hardcore from Malmo, Sweden, firing a litany of political attacks against patriarchy, poverty and consumerism. From these vocal diatribes and tribal patterns, the songs burst into noisy, blasting, full-throttle crust thrash more common to Sweden with high-speed, standard issue screeched/shouted vocal trade-offs. The circle-logo cover displays heavily stippled skulls, gasmasks, factories, and the wasteland, but the thoughtful lyric explanations mark this as sincerity as opposed to out-and-out mimicry. Solid. review fromm Maximum Rocknroll
RM 6/ USD 4

M40"Historien Svarta Vingsi Ag" tape
Review : Crust/hardcore from Lidköping. Twelve songs of total fury! Full length album recorded at HoboRec, Jönköping. The songs are mixed with slower parts, which keeps the record as a whole interesting and focused. As on a prime note; crustpunk has never - and will never be - better than this. Think Totalt Jävla Mörker mixed with Neurosis!

RM 90ppd. [Local order only]

Witch S/T LP [Tee pee records]
"Witch falls distinctly in the stoner rock category. Take “Seer,” for instance. The central riff is one of those classics from the ‘70s – full of fuzzy tone, a Sabbathy groove that’s pretty much timeless, ethereal vocals (think Dead Meadow but less shrill), and an outro that has the perfect amount of build up and release (wait for that bass line to kick in). It’s stoner rock in all of its shaggy, head shaking glory. There’s a strong undercurrent of psychedelia underneath the lumbering, doomy riffs. This hits all the right spots. It's a familiar sound, but it still has a distinct identity. Recommended."
