Wormwood – S/T

Wormwood – S/T

Christmas has decayed away, it has fallen into the snow, crushed underfoot, ground into muddied mush speckled with blood.  Ahead the New Year approaches, and with it thousands upon millions of lies erupt from the maws of the damned, those sniveling wooden robots of society that drag their feet, make their purchases, make their promises, […]

Two Films of Christmas Horror and Hate

As of this writing, it’s December 25th and my Christmas celebration began with a domestic squabble with my on-again/off-again domestic partner. Things got uglier and fists got introduced into the equation. Like a gentleman (or a coward who realizes that a ‘Domestic Violence’ rap is not going to look very appealing to my newly-found corporate […]

Evadne – Dethroned of Light EP

In the world of doom metal, it’s pretty simple to categorize any one band, in fact many of them sound so similar furthering delineating by way of another adjective is often fruitless, or better to say delusional.  However, if there’s one clear derivation in the genre, it’s funeral doom.  You’ve probably already heard of the […]

Interview with Death Valley Driver (Slam It, Jam It)

Usually we waste most of your time for this interviews with an intro that pretty much doesn’t even need to be here, so let’s keep it short today.  We’ve been slamming with Death Valley Driver for a solid year almost, watching them grow from some dudes to dudes we wish lived nearby.  May we come […]

Sloth Herder / Horde of the Eclipse – Split CD

Let’s give ourselves a splitting headache.  Are you ready to understand what it’s like to have split-personality disorder?  Can we think of any other clever usages of the word ‘split’ that doesn’t involve a direct understanding of the term in relationship to music?  No, it stops right here, right now.  Now we get to being serious. […]

Zom – Flesh Assimilation

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!  Ever just want to do that?  Ever just want to scream the scream of sacrilegious pleasure when you come across something so absolutely filthy, so disgustingly, awfully corrupt it defines your entire existence as a thing of the soil?  You worm, do you not know of Zom?  Zom come from Ireland and their sound […]

Compilation Dissertation – Ball de Bastons / Makil Dantza

Been awhile since we did one of these.  So for those of you who missed out on our last one, let’s explain before we begin, because this is a lot of reading, and it should be because it’s a lot of work, thus the title of this feature. Compilation Dissertation is where we give a […]

Centinex – Redeeming Filth

This was a day when we wanted to feel manly, or womanly.  It was a day to break down gender barriers, to enter a world where everyone can be beast and the image is not restricted to false presentations in the media.  This is that day.  This is the day when you toss things around […]

Theologian – Some Things Have To Be Endured (LP Edition)

It’s time for some of The Blast (our ‘hey there buddy’ nickname for Crucial Blast), perhaps one of the most underrated underground labels currently, with powerhouses like Gnaw Their Tongues under the belt, bursting at the seams.  Theologian is relatively new in the scene of death industrial, though that tag doesn’t necessarily describe him.  In […]

DistortHead VS A Scar for the Wicked

It’s time for a challenge.  Time for a battle where only one can remain, crowned the victor of a meaningless Deaf Sparrow award that doesn’t even exist in any physical form.  At times we review two things at once, we’ve done it before.  Two albums, same band, or perhaps two albums same label.  But then […]
