West Coast Bullshit Disaster 2003

One fucking awesome split. Epic. Voetsek, Conga Fury, and Chainsaw all on one 10" vinyl; how can you get any more thrash?

Conga Fury open up with 8 ripping tracks of their overly-distorted hardcore. So much fucking distortion. Some good songs here, too. Next up is Japan's Chainsaw, with two songs; only two. That's really the only bad thing about this entire 10". Voetsek finishes the set with 5 awesome tracks of their fast-as-fuck thrashy female-fronted hardcore. That's really hard to comprehend, since the singer's voice is so goddamn intense. they REALLY get into it.

Once more, this could've been a better rip, but I'm happy about this one, just because I found out where the Conga Fury songs start and end; it was almost impossible. I'm probably not going to do this one over, because I really don't feel like doing that shit all over again. Enjoy!

Asshole Parade - Say Goodbye

Here's Assholeparade's 'Say Goodbye' EP. I like the cover. That's about it. Yes, the songs are really good, and that's to be expected of such a great band. But the vocals...something is wrong. Terribly wrong. The ferocity of the delivery isn't there, as on other releases. Pretty much the entire "Student Ghetto Violence" Discography CD and the 'full-length' "Embers" are kickass. This one, not so much.

I don't know if they just had a different singer, or if their singer had a bad day, or what. Could be anything, and I'm really not going to get into details with the fucking information. Use your own keyboard for that, chief. The funny thing about this is, this came out AFTER Student Ghetto Violence and BEFORE Embers...just throwing that out there; it's eerie.

All that guff with the vocals aside, this is a great EP. All the songs are delivered in all the gusto that you'd expect, and they even cover "Red Tape" by Circle Jerks. There's some harmonica on the solo, too.

TRACK LIST:

1. Mr. Rippington's Revenge
2. Short, Fast, Recovery Plan
3. Through Tha (W)Ringer
4. Exploding Club Of Hearts
5. Red Tape (Circle Jerks)
6. Puncture The Quiet Life
7. Dirty Word
8. Dogbite
9. Sample
10. Say Goodbye To My Little Friends
11. Soldiers/Problems
12. Yellow Eyes
13. Soldiers II
14. As Nails Rust

Corn On Macabre - Chapter I: Punk

This is a great example of Grind. Fucking fast, funny fucking lyrics, no fucking whiny emo-ass vocals...Great. Think bands like Combat Wounded Veteran, or The End Of The Century Party. Pretty much a cross between those two, actually.

This entire EP goes by in less than 6 minutes. Somewhere around 5 minutes, really. Perfect. This is a vinyl rip, and you fans of sorts will be happy to know, everything I've ripped as of recently has been very high quality, as opposed to older rips (the All Gone Dead/Bastardass split below is a prime example of how my earlier ones came out. Bleh. That one I ripped a while ago, when I first got my equipment. I'll be re-doing that one eventually).

TRACK LIST:

1. Trojan Clown
2. When Will Man Learn?
3. I Watched Friday The 13th At My Grandmother's House-She Wasn't Into It, But She Let Me Watch It Anyway
4. Shut Up And Play Something Evil
5. Bad Lieutenant
6. Pterodactyl Shutdown

Fuck The Facts - Legacy Of Hopelessness

This EP is fantastic. Short as fucking hell, and like Genghis Tron is some respects, but more straight up grindcore. If you've heard their earlier stuff, then you'll know that Fuck The Facts are just a pretty decent grindcore band. But on this release, they go balls-out on everything, with songs ranging from grindcore to jazz to electronica. Some expertly portrayed fucking grind.

There's only like 6 tracks, and the album is only around 10 minutes long. That's just enough time to realize what this band is capable of. There is supposedly 2 enhanced CD tracks too, but I'm not so sure if I got a copy with that. This EP, as far as I can tell, is pretty much out of print. There may be a few copies lying around, but eh. Don't care. Not all my information is right anyway, so fuck off.

TRACK LIST:

1. City Of Stone
2. Horizon
3. Dear Shit Book
4. Short Term Goals, Long Term Disappointments
5. Eclat-Boue-Sang
6. Make Your Grave

MK-Ultra/Seein' Red Split LP

MK-Ultra are one of the fucking smartest powerviolence bands on earth. They play fast, they have original song structures, whatever. They're good. The band also features Ebro of Charles Bronson on drums.

Seein' Red actually kinda suck. There's members of Larm in this one, but it's just not the same. And all of the songs are really cliche. Very annoying, not much thought to songs, etc. A lot of people will like this band, but I'm not one of them.

V/A N.Y. Catheter Crew

A decent hardcore compilation. Some crackle and pop on the first song, but not much bad. The all too underrated Judas Iscariot appears on this one, but the song is a bit mediocre. R.P.O.D. and Kill Your Idols also appear on this. Not too bad.

None of this is essential, but hey. For the sake of hardcore, keep this one in your memory. Tis better than mainstream.

TRACK LIST:

1. Of Epic Proportions (INDECISION)
2. Martin's Park (R.P.O.D.)
3. It's A Blitz (R.P.O.D.)
4. Get A Job, You Smell (R.P.O.D.)
5. Divorce (THE JUDAS ISCARIOT)
6. One Last Time (MILHOUSE)
7. Wake Up, Sheep (KILL YOUR IDOLS)
8. Terrorizer (THE BERZERKERS)

V/A KNORMALITIES! Vol. 1-3

The Knormalities Collection is one of the most awesome collections of powerful avante-garde music, ranging from Melt-Banana to Sleepytime Gorilla Museum to The Flying Luttenbachers. In other words, a good find.

I've had these on vinyl for a year or so, and I decided to rock
these like Amadeus. Volume 1 has a great seven tracks of fucking killer music to nod off to, with stuff from everyone you'll ever want to meet. I particularly like the song by The Molecules, titled "Blah." Good Stuff, good stuff.

Volume 2 has only three songs, the first being "Kirkpinar" by Alboth! A nice lengthy gloomy tune which reminds me of some of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum's slower stuff. There's a little crackle in this one, but deal with it. Next on Volume 2 is a song by Nels Cline, a bit of a noisy-as-TV-static song until a little after a minute into it. Track three is a hot track by Moe!Kestra! entitled "Godgloeiendeteringklootzak," formerly by The Ex. Say THAT ten times fast.

Volume 3 is probably my least favorite, just because the immortal Sleepytime Gorilla Museum only offers up a sub-par track, a cover of This Heat's "S.P.Q.R." Everything else on this volume isn't bad at all. The Ex's "Giant" is an awesome show of...stuff, even though the lyrics cut out during the recording. No biggie. The song itself is better as an instrumental, methinks. Cheer-Accident does a nice job of doing a fucking song about stars.

TRACK LIST:

VOLUME 1

1. Vacuum Tree Head - Legend Of PB3 Timesware
2. The Flying Luttenbachers - The Shriek Continues
3. Mono Pause - Brief Lallation
4. Melt-Banana - Pluck!
5. Molecules - Blah
