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

Putrid Pile you guys

seriously

at MDF dude was unfuckinghinged and made noises without any vocal effects that were, 'ow you say, SIIIIIIIIIIIICK

Putrid Pile have a new album coing out on the ever-loveable Goregiastic Records:

http://www.goregiasticrecords.com/

that new Forgotten Woods album is pretty fucked. Kinda mellow for this thread though. They must smoke a lot of pot. What kind of pot do you get in Norway?

oh man Foetopsy's on Goregiastic - they were one of my favorites at MDF, their album isn't breakin' a lot of ground but it sure is breakin' a lot of grind har har har! fuckin' love those guys

got Moribund mail yesterday too. new Drawn And Quartered album sounds nice. MERCILESS HAMMER OF LUCIFER! also new Hacavitz which i'm looking forward to and new Godless Rising featuring dudes from Vital Remains.

have you heard the new Drawn And Quartered, John? i would think you would like it.

got the latest issue of SOD in the mail the other day too. kinda disappointed that Lordi were on the cover. And also kinda disappointed that the cd was just a southern lord sampler. they usually have great death label comps. oh well. still a great issue overall of one of my fave mags.

haven't heard it, no - feel like I saw it though! will poke around

the thing about Foetopsy that makes them great though is that they don't take themselves seriously AT ALL - dude was wearing a belt made up of tampons onstage

dud of the week: seizure crypt album. dudes trying to revive old skool (but not that old) NYHC but it's really anemic. don fury production and all that, but so flat. half sung/half rapped (kinda) shit. i'd rather listen to judge. or madball. or sick of it all. definitely did NOT provide the "unbridled crossover ferocity" that it advertised. where's my token entry reunion! (there probably was one. what the hell do i know? i think everyone has reunited four times by now.)

NYHC is so often anaemic and weak if it's not done right. I can see why a lot of HC fans just write off the whole genre. I mean I do most of the time! I like old Agnostic Front though. Their 3rd album sucked so much shit I never bothered with anything after.

I will be downloading Foetopsy :)

finally getting around to the Vital Remains's Icons of Evil...fuck do I ever love this band

not as great as "Dechristianize" yet but we'll see

fucking GUITAR SOLOS up in this bitch, proper stuff

i love the first two agnostic front albums too. cause for alarm is so awesome. wish i still had a copy. it's been so long since i heard the third album. i don't think i hated it. it was metallic, i remember that.

It was metallic but in a really feeble and powerless way. Like a lot of crossover. Even good crossover stuff like DRI and COC has songs that just fall flat and 3rd AF is a whole album of that.

I'm not a big crossover fan though, in general.

I tend to like "proper" hardcore punk, or thrash metal, much more than most attempts to combine the two.

I like Cryptic Slaughter a lot. And Dead Horse.

this hacavitz is the shit. drummer is just going nuts. i love that they recorded it as a duo. very very cool album so far.

honestly, this is probably my favorite crossover album of all time and i know people who HATE it with a passion:

http://xclaim.com/images/hwr.gif

i mean, i can't even tell you how many times i've played that album. 500 times? i do love dri, but my love for their early days knows no bounds.

i guess i wasn't really that much of a skate punk fan in the 80's. speaking of which, Mcrad have a new album out.

i took to thrash like a fish to water though.

I've never heard that SSD album. I'm not a huge fan of theirs though, compared to other Boston bands like DYS, Jerry's Kids, Negative FX, Freeze etc.

Hacavitz album is definitely my pick of the week. great black/death action. great riffs. insane drummer. gnarly solos. punk energy and feel. total sweetness. oh, and completely fugly.

"i guess i wasn't really that much of a skate punk fan in the 80's."

although i loved jfa with a passion. there are always exceptions.

You've motivated me to look for How We Rock now. Partly because it's so hated by hardcore punkers!

xpost I'm not a big skate punk fan at all but I do dig JFA and Ill Repute (amongst others)

this might be the first punk record i bought where i thought to myself at the time, hey, this sounds like metal!

http://homepages.nyu.edu/~alr237/kraut_whettingthescythe.jpg

not all of it, but the songs ngri and flossing with an e string especially.

hey, col. poo, have you heard daymares or sss? i have to review their new albums. on the punk tip and all.

http://www.myspace.com/yourdaymares

http://www.myspace.com/shortsharpshock

oh wait i lied i'm not reviewing the sss. though i like the sss album. i am reviewing the new toxic bonkers album though.

http://www.myspace.com/toxicbonkers

Fueled by Fire are boring as shit live. Saw them open for, I think, Municipal Waste, who admittedly will make any band seem boring, but they were still pretty damn boring. Did I mention that they're boring?

SSS, on the other hand, are totally awesome.

Fueled by Fire just signed to Metal Blade, so I don't know what that says about metal blade in 2007.

Although I did like the Middian album, which is doom but doesn't smell good at all.

More dollar death:

Also on Grind Core, cover art also by Cradle of Filth dude. Apparently Tipper Gore didn't like these guys in the 80s, but this one is from 1992, with the main guy and some scabs. Crap production (obviously), but it's actually pretty tuneful. The local used record store has tons of Grind Core releases in the dollar bin.

i think the tipper gore hated impaler was the other one, the silly american one.

yeah, this is the tipper Impaler:

http://www.rootofallevil.com/label/bands/impaler/impaler.html

that combat debut has such a great cover. wish i had a copy. tipper gore. i still can't get over that name. so perfect.

i really like this band a lot. they sound like DRI. and they have a song on this album about Capenter's "The Thing" called..."The Thing".

Antarctica winter 1982 research was going steady, And there was nothing much to do
In the distance a lone wolf flees, But no one knows the carnage that this animal will bring
VIOLENE UNFOLDS
Assaulted by Norwegian guests theyll have to die like all the rest
SEARCHING THROUGH SNOW
Discovering the frozen corpse of something thats not of this earth
THE CREATURE COMES FORTH
An evil makes its presence known attempting to create a clone
NOWHERE TO GO
And something grim is at hand something in this arctic land
The Thing, No one knows the hell it will bring
Its got you from the inside, Its taking over your life
Intensions so unexplained, Until the gets a hold of your brain
Hiding till the damage is done, Killing them off one by one
The sense of fear begins to grow, and no one has protection from this dangerous infection
Their fates in the hands of the unknown, and nerves are quickly blowing while the thing is steadily growing
Whom to trust theyll never now
And nothing can contain a creature of the unexplained
Half the crews dead more to go
Somehow its got to stop and now McReady's getting pissed off
Now theres nothing left to do
Discovering whose human is what this final test will prove
Deadly results are what this test brings
But its the final hope to unveil this gruesome being
VIOLENCE UNFOLDS
The test was the solution now its time for execution
SEARCHING THROUGH SNOW
And now Blair is the last Thing left Hell fight until his dying breath
THE CREATURE COMES FORTH
But this will be the final clash and kills it with a giant blast
NOWHERE TO GO
Our heros fate is finally sealed
The camp is lost The Thing is killed (or is it?)

new album coming out any day now:

http://www.facethewaste.com/aopbig.jpg

awesome.

Impaler do a song called "Black Leather Monster." Is that a cover of The Plasmatics' song on Metal Priestess?

I did a paper on the PMRC in high school and picked the NASTIEST lyrics I could find to quote. I think the winner was a song called "Golden Showers" (I think) by The Mentors. Something about leaving a shit tower on someone's face. It felt sooooooo good writing the phrase "shit tower" in a formal high school paper. My teacher wrote "yuk!" in the margins. I got an A.

lol @ non-zombie regular party shenanigans on far left xpost

All Music said that they were the same Impaler! THEY LIED!

I blame Ned.

the new Blood Freak album on Razorback btw, while not taking itself too seriously (Razorback's kind of a mondo sorta label), is great - good riffs & freaking incredible tone on the solos

troo n0rvegian blek metle

this is my riff of the day:

i like it. i'd never heard whitehorse before. they do the ugly epic doom thing very well. i might like that monarch! double cd on crucial blast more though. maybe.

You might still be able to pick up the 2nd and 3rd live cdrs of Whitehorse(the 1st one is on that 20 buck spin cd).
The Monarch is great. Compiles two vinyl releases and a tour single. Also pick up the 1st double cd "666". It's killer!

Thrash from Colombia:

i'm sad that oystein doesn't feel the grim anymore :(
Yes, it's all very terrible. I actually traded my copy of Countess' "Ad maiorem smashing superhits" for a Ruins record this weekend. What has become of me!

(on the plus side, I did hold the fire hire last night be enjoying some fine Sabbat - Satanasword action). Not very mean, nasty, ugly, evil METAL though. Just fun and metal. Maybe a bit evil, eh.)
