Prolefeed are a UK grindcore band and Henry Kane is a one-man Swedish deathgrinder.
We last met Prolefeed on their very enjoyable split with War All the Time, and they open this release with a fast and furious 13 minutes of aural mayhem. Continue reading “Prolefeed/Henry Kane – The Mass Forfeiture of Collective Responsibility – Split (Review)”
Friendship are from Japan and play blackened grindcore/hardcore. This is their debut album.
Reeking of corrupted dark hardcore, blackened brutality, scathing powerviolence, and virulent grind, this is an album that’s perfectly titled. Continue reading “Friendship – Hatred (Review)”
Exhumed are a US death metal band and this is their sixth album.
I’ve had a huge, (wet, mushy, bloody), soft spot for Exhumed from the first time I heard Gore Metal way back when it came out, and ever since I’ve been a fan. I mention this only because Death Revenge is being released almost 20 years after their legendary debut, but demonstrates a band that have probably never sounded better.
This is the seventh album from legendary Spanish goregrinders Haemorrhage.
This is 35 minutes of unhinged medical mayhem. However, the band also know the virtue of restraint when necessary, as sometimes the applied force of a surgical strike is more effective than a chainsaw to the guts. Continue reading “Haemorrhage – We Are the Gore (Review)”
This is third album from French metallic hardcore band Nesseria.
Having unleashed something as heavy and violent as 2014’s Fractures, Nesseria have now returned to inflict their latest ode to sonic violence Cette Érosion de nous Mêmes; 38 minutes of intensity and aggression. Continue reading “Nesseria – Cette Érosion de nous Mêmes (Review)”
King Parrot are an Australian thrashgrind band, and this is their third album.
While 2013’s Bite Your Head Off was on the grindier side of the spectrum, but still imbued with a thrash vitality, 2015’s Dead Set played with the thrash side more, with longer songs and more involved compositions. Continue reading “King Parrot – Ugly Produce (Review)”
Implore are a German grindcore band and this is their second album.
What’s in a genre tag, eh? Grindcore this may be, but that appellation doesn’t tell the whole story, for that we have to expand the genre label a tad. Quite a bit actually; blackened crust deathgrind. How about that? Closer to the truth, but definitely an unwieldy mouthful. Continue reading “Implore – Subjugate (Review)”
Bedwetter are a UK grindcore band of sorts. This is their debut EP.
From the prolific mind behind Barrabus, Medulla Nocte, Lazarus Blackstar, The Sontaran Experiment, and more, this is crazy stuff. A sort of chaotic, avant-garde grind/hardcore blend of violence and insanity, Bedwetter have unleashed seven minutes of frenzied absurdity on the world. Continue reading “Bedwetter – Bedwetter (Review)”
This is the third album from Idylls, a hardcore band from Australia.
Idylls are ferocious and uncompromising. They play chaotic, violent hardcore, and they play it very well. Continue reading “Idylls – The Barn (Review)”
I love savage, ultra-aggressive music, especially when played with substance and obvious passion. Which is why I love Helpless. Their debut album Debt is a scorching, visceral maelstrom of nastiness, one which delivers 22 minutes of ferocity and heaviness.
Let’s dig a little deeper with the band’s bassist Steve Waldron… Continue reading “Interview with Helpless”
