Awwwww Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit

Well I don't know why I should be any different, mediafire has suspended my account....it happens to the best of em it seems. Of course not every link on this blog was mediafire, but a great amount were...so if you are interested in a re-up, leave a comment and I'll see what I can do. In the meantime I'm gonna see if I can find a worthwhile filehost.

Mon'strum

Here's another goodie...aMAAAzinng Dutch prog-death and unfortunately another recording that I cannot for the life of me find on the nets, so enjoy the youtube clip!

Malfunction - Into Stranger Sphere

An obscure technical thrash treasure from '93. You really can't argue with the tunes or the production on here....enjoyable in an idiot-savant way. And isn't that why we enjoy so much of Dutch metal anyways?

Into Stranger Sphere

Centurian - Liber Zar Zax

Well if you ever wondered what happened to Inquisitor, they turned into the bestial turbo-tech death of Centurian...which in turn morphed into the even more amped up Nox....which always makes me think of lox...on a bagel w/schmear....with capers...and onions. yum. (oh and tomatoes too!)

Liber Zar Zax

The Best...

blogger profile ever? yeah....from adam9898's blogger introduction.

I Like Christian Rock & Metal I Am a diabetic I Want to not harden my heart and learn to love I Have red hair I Wish i could stop smoking I Hate temptation and lies I Fear God I Hear complaining too much I Search for Christian rock and metal albums that I would like I Wonder if i will ever grow up and put my childish ways away I Regret serving sin I Love God I Ache when my sugar level is high I Always pray before I sleep I Usually smoke almost a pack and a half of cigs a day I Am Not thinking positive most of the time I Dance when im drunk I Sing only when i know the words I Never wanted my GED I Rarely leave home I Cry when im really depressed OR really Happy lol I Am Not Always sane I Lose my thoughts alot I'm Confused easily I Need to find a way to support myself with or on computers at home I Should do something

Botulistum

Terrorizing. Insane. Blackness. Horror....Peat Metal?? Oh, for Peat's sake!!

Wederopstanding Der Veenlijken

Hongerend Vuur

Warchitect - Matter

A beyond awful name for a beyond awesome band. Wonderfully atmospheric melodic tech-death...a hardcore/post-rock-tinged Death perhaps? Or for a more obscure point of reference, anyone remember B'more tech band Psychotogen? Their Perverse and UnNatural Practices and Calculus of Evil albums? Well, Warchitect might as well be their Dutch doppelganger.

What does it Matter?

Imperium - Too Short A Season

Total idiosyncratic Dutch Technothrash x-travaganza!

Too Short A Season

Inquisitor - Walpurgis - Sabbath Of Lust

Goddamn some fuckin' wild-ass thrash that will get your ass in gear!!!

Walpurgis Lust

Messina - Terrortory

No, no...not of Loggins and Messina. Please do you think I would ever do that to y'all.

Terrortory

Liar Of Golgotha - Dancing Through The Palace of The Ungodly Beauty

Twisted and obscure mid-paced symphonix black metal. Absolutely dripping with atmosphere like early Enthroned, early Samael, early Forgotten Woods and very early Marduk. Excellent.

Dancing Through The Palace Of The Ungodly Beauty

Utopian Sexgod

Oh hell yeah, is this ever fucked up, courtesy of Funeral Winds, Liar of Golgotha member Vinny Meelhuysen. Gotta thank youtube's strugatsky for uploading this. What impeccable taste!!

Pestilence - Spheres

One of the most polarizing death metal albums ever made...but don't be swayed by the naysayers, personally this is my favorite of theirs. And of course we all know golden boy went on to Kraut tech-deathsters Obscura. Newer Pestilence blows balls...Older Pestilence is cool but doesn't really do it for me...Spheres is oh so weird and juuuuust right.

Spheres

Project: Kill

Lordy Lordy

R.I.P. Jon Lord

Mindlink

Oh man, here's another rare Dutch techno-prog thrash band that only released one album called Desiderata in 1997...and yeah, couldn't find that one either save one tune on youtube, someone needs to go through the trouble of re-issuing these lost Dutch technothrash gems...FMP I'm looking in your direction.

Genetic Wisdom - The Fear Dimension

With a name like Genetic Wisdom you better believe this is some awesome Dutch technothrash. I'm not so sure about the ballads on this one, but hell what can you do? It's Dutch style!!

The Fear Dimension

Altered Moves Two

An incredibly underrated Dutch technothrash band that released a sole album called Shifter Of Minds back in 1992. Could only find this one tune of their's on youtube, if you really want the album be prepared to pay up.

Osiris - Futurity And Human Depressions

Another Dutch technothrash gem...geez, what are they puttin' in the water over there??

Futurity and Human Depressions

Paralysis - Architecture Of The Imagination

Dark, progressive and technical as hell...Paralysis certainly went out on a high note.

Architecture Of The Imagination

Hmmmmmmmm.......

Will it be decent? Will it suck ballz? At least this doesn't sound emo-metalcore...whatever, I'll always give Flo the benefit of the doubt. The man is a blastbeat machine.

Tales of the Sick

Live In East Berlin

what a performance!

Fluisterwoud - Langs Galg En Rad

tru tru tru tru repetitive hypnotic blastingly excellent. Released on FMP and including a Lugubrum cover, so you know it's awesome.

Langs Galg En Rad

Galgeras - Reliekrover

Leave me alooooooooone

Reliekrover

Commandeus

One of the more ridiculous/awesome drumming vids I've seen lately....welcome back Pete!

Lowrider

I think Paul's onto something with that setup...he might as well be sitting on a beanbag chair back there.

Physical Fitness Is Important

Just ask Steve Asheim...the man whose lat's have their own lats.

New Zeuhl!

This is awesome, a new Magma album is out...have a Zeuhlishly great 4th guys!

Paralysis - Visions

The Dutch were very very good at technothrash. Paralysis is just one of many...Mystrez --- Imperium --- Osiris --- Rhadamantys --- I could go on (and I will, don't worry). Their debut ep Arctic Sleep was a stunner and Visions ain't no slouch. Same vocalist, so you know there is some obtuse caterwaulin' goin' down. The song "Escape From Yesterday" absolutely has to be heard to be believed.

Visions

Pyaemia - Cerebral Cereal

All brutal all the time, but groovy as well with a fair amount of hooky riff(s) salad. And really, how can you not love an album that has song titles like "Sugar Spiced Anus" and "Gorging on Mucus and Bile"?

Cerebral Cereal

Dyoxen - First Among Equals

Just remembered it's Canada Day, so to celebrate our neighbors to the north I'm posting some impossibly obscure technothrash from Montreal's own Dyoxen. Now if there is one thing that Canadians (specifically Quebecois) do well, it is left-of-center, incredibly progressive thrash...think Voivod, think Obliveon, think DBC, and well then just keeep thinking man cuz this is thinking man's metal...not for the weak of mind, or weak of heart.

First Among Equals

Lier In Wait - Immersie Obscura-The Equinox Of The Gods Demo 1992

Absolutely amazing black doom...reminds me of Crux a whole helluva lot. Could only find these trax on youtube, so that will have to do. Old-school to the MAX!!!

Polluted Inheritance - Ecocide

Dutch month is back!! You may remember in the halcyon daze of this blog I devoted about a month to the best and brightest of Dutch metal....well, I of course couldn't cover it all so we're back for round two and kicking things off is the diabolical old-school death of Polluted Inheritance...Techy in a groovy way, old school through and through....head bobs and fist pumps guaranteed.

Ecocide
