the occasional thread for mean, nasty, ugly, evil metal that doesn't smell good and that takes itself way too seriously

Scott, I think you're really gonna like the debut CD by Warbeast. It's called Krush the Enemy, it's on Phil Anselmo's Housecore label and he produced it, too. It features the former vocalist for Rigor Mortis, who kinda sounds like a cross between Steven Rathbone of Lair of the Minotaur and Oderus Urungus, and the music is pure gutter thrash.

i will check out warbeast.

Deathgasm Reintroduces Blaspherian's Allegiance To The Will Of Damnation

hey fuckin' A lovers of this style of metal, may I strongly, STRONGLY encourage you to seek out this five-band split:

http://www.spirit-of-metal.com/les%20goupes/D/Decrepit%20Womb/Fermenting%20in%20Five-Way%20Filth/Fermenting%20in%20Five-Way%20Filth.jpg

me to mrs. aerosmith, just now: "Man, this band Down From the Wound is not fucking around!"

this record slays

basically half-assedly liveblogging this as I bang my head but fuckin A I didn't know Heinous Killings was a full band now with live drums! wasn't hung with barbwire a one-man-band affair? anyway, as a full band, they are fucking savage. the song titles are as offensive as ever but there's no lyric sheet, which is a relief, since I think I may have thrown away hung with barbwire in a fit of skeevedness. but damn! the heinous killings tracks on this cap off 18 tracks of pure goregrind madness! fucking awesome split! grind grind grind grind grind

did I spend the last hour having a totally good time scouring the house to locate my copy of hung with barbwire? yes I did. did I find it? you bet I did. is it rocking the dayroom right now as I enjoy a lovely cocchi americano & soda? yes. yes it is.

heinous killings live in their rehearsal space

this is fucking sick

i have no memory of writing this. i wrote it for whiney, apparently! i kinda like it. i don't write good no more. or have the energy to. but i'm getting that cpap machine soon! can't wait for that. once i can sleep right again, watch out, america!

Defcon 4

You ever see the movie Defcon 4? Yeah, me neither. Or wait, did I? Eh, probably. Who knows anymore. I’m so jaded when it comes to kitschy apocalyptica. And my memory is poor. And I’ve seen a million movies. Today at work I was emptying one of those big outdoor ashtrays. You know the ones. A Rubbermaid. Jesus, Rubbermaid, there’s a movie for you. Thousands of Ohioans living and dead could tell the whole dirty story while gritting their teeth at the memory of the loss and the misplaced pride. What, like the end of the world hasn’t actually come yet? You need futuristic neon dystopias to tell the tale of man’s folly? Take a look around, buddy. Anyway, this big-ass plastic ashtray with the gaping metal mouth was beyond full. The butts crammed to the top formed a single tube of soggy and yet hardened nic fit. It took forever to get them out of there. And I couldn’t help but feel like I had seen this movie before. And I had. In a way. When I was 16 and wiping shit off of supermarket bathroom walls. When I was 26 and on my hands and knees cleaning mouse shit off of dirty deli floors. And when I was 36 and changing stinky diapers by myself in a small damp house far from everyone and everything that I knew and trying to embrace the love I felt for my son, while, at the same time, ducking dark storm clouds of isolation and fear.
Which is just another way of saying that Defcon 4 are a decent Boston punk band that mixes doom and crust and sharpened Eyehategod teeth all in the service of…what? I don’t know. Another pennant? Hatred of Ben Affleck’s street cred? All I know is, from the area of the universe that gave me SSD and Converge, I expect MORE pain. And MORE convincing wails of torment. Their stylistic twists and turns aren’t as compelling as the more advanced cosmic crust moves of Kylesa or Baroness either. But, hey, they are young, right? I have no idea, are they? Well, they sound young. And kinda peppy even. And hanging out with Steve Austin was a good move too. Their record sounds smooth. I’m just not feeling very smooth. I give any young band the same advice I gave a guy I met last week who only has two months to live (gallbladder): It’s never too late to become a reader. You might not want to start with War & Peace though.

also, i am listening to tank. tank rules.

Still true. I mean they probably didn't take themselves way too seriously, but fuck they rule.

new ravencult album on hells headbangers is hotttttttttt

album of the year:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwQ9g5rW5jg

this is one of my favorite albums of the last ten years and hardly anyone heard it. came out on a tiny label. never made it to the ststes, etc. kinda avant-black, but great vibe. great tension. jim jones worship is kind of a throwback in the transgressive sweepstakes - what's next manson? - but its okay cuz it works.

gettin' my warwulf on again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKuJDc-Wmrk#t=17

Being an MST3K fan I'm obliged to post A WARWULF?!

That's that stuff that's so loud and violent that, at low volume, it sounds kind of soothing. Like a dude whispering over muted static.

Why does ILX get so wulfed out on saturdays

xp More metal logos should incorporate axes.

really digging Undergang lately.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lWlUB-5E3I

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzHwOsSWt_A

Undergang bass sound really hits the spot.

Yeah Undergang is awesome, this is the kind of stuff where the guitar/bass sound is already enough, they don't actually need any tunes.

i agree.

Fucking LOVE Undergang. Got them and Vorum at the same time, it was a great day for pulverizing my brain.

this video is insane. who even knew that Barbara even had a video for this song? love that album a ton. NSFW. just so you know.

I getta get into Ruins of Beverast some more.

I've been digging Nocturnal Blood's super-vile black/death chaos (just consider this one 26 minute piece):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQDxan3haFc

Can't believe that dude's from Fontana!

...and Temple Nightside's druggy cave metal, which gets very floaty and psychedelic. I mean, you're floating in a SEA OF BLACK BLOOD, but still.

love this picture of Mystifier back in the day

http://i64.tinypic.com/ncb1qo.jpg

OK I just listened the shit out of this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPbxHpjDcyQ

I love that special viciousness thrashy/speedy metal bands got after Reign in Blood and Seven Churches came out. Also they're from Jersey.

i used to have their first album many moons ago. Kill Or Be Killed. a minor classic to be sure.
