Paraxism

An absolutely incredible Finnish death metal band that is as unique as they are underrated...if they're rated at all! This blog would be a worthwhile endeavor if for nothing else than introducing Paraxism to eager young ears...link for everything I got Demo #1, Promo '97, Selected Works and Xism Excursion.

Holocaust HOLLA!!!

Voivodian Fury

Columbian Creativity

Purist Impurity

Delirious Idiosyncranicity

Swiss Beatz/German Potato Salad

I love u, I love u, I love u

Bluuurgh... - Vegetables Of Doom

Veggies of fucking doom...as in this will put your ass in a vegetative state for sure. One listen of this punk-inflected death smess and you'll be pulling the plug my friend.

Veggies of doooooom

Paralysis - Architecture Of The Imagination

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

Architecture Of The Imagination

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

Beast of the Prairies

Shudder To Think - Ten Spot

A winning combination of Voivod's Outer Limits and Angel Rat....'nuff said.

Ten Spot

Scanxion - Demos 90-94

An obscure British trash band from the early 90's, this is one of those bands that are seemingly made for me. Phat techy riffs that will get you groovin' and on top of that a pitch perfect vocalist whose got a little punk bite to his snarl, sounding sort of like Bad Religion's Greg Graffin. This is a winning combination friends...pair this with that Psychopath I posted a couple days ago and you'll be set.

Demos 90-94

Xynfonica - A Feast For Famished Ravens

Tardcore has been ramped up a notch brothers and sisters. Improvised guitar-synths, after hours jazz and creepy growled intonations. Put out by the always solid Hekaloth. Handle with cares.

A SLoppy Feast

ALF Projekt - Melmac Rock

You had your brain blown by RALF Projekt, now how bout a little ALF Projekt?!!...maaaan that Gordon Shumway could blow, but we all know he was just trying to impress that nosy bitch Raquel.

RALF Projekt III - Projekt: Kill

A lo-fi/no-fi descent into the deepest depths of depravity...go ahead and take a long stride into the abyss.

Projekt: Kill

Circle Of Ouroborus - Shores

One of the best most essential albums made in the last ten years.

Shores

Kalaschnikov - The Torture Never Stops

Another of the infamous Metal Enterprise releases...utterly cheesy and fun as hell!!

The Torture Never Stops

Ice Ice Burn Baby Burn

Awesome song. Awesome band. Hard to believe that anything this good has come out of Utah.....besides Mormonism hehe.

Hardware

Old school experimental death metal from Mexico. Both the Cyber Death demo from '90 and Souls Vortex ep from '92 are absolutely strange eerie chilling death metal with an atmosphere like no other...and Souls Vortex has one of the most awesome death metal covers ever, definitely one of my favorites anyway! I mean the fuckin zombies/aliens are wearing bowties, vomitting blood, pounding on an eviscerated man's ribcage and one is using it's own spinal column as a saxophone. About sums up the musick perfectly!!

Cyber Death

Souls Vortex

Peter Evans Quintet - Ghosts

Been listening to this awesome jazz on a fairly regular basis since I found out about it. Swings hard with lots of skrees and skronks, bleeps and blops. Evans is a fairly young guy too. Hope to hear alot more from him and this quintet.

Ghosts

Siren - The Calling...

Posted this one a while back, but it deserves special mention once again. Stumbling, bumbling doomy black metal that sounds like a collection of Countess B-sides. If that description doesn't make you hit the link immediately, then I'm afraid you have good taste and virtue and there is absolutely no hope for you. What's your stalling...er, I mean calling?

The Stalling

RALF Projekt II - The Sloppy Feast

RALF returns with a vengeance...3 impromptus and 3 covers of Led Zeppelin, Dissection and Iron Maiden. It's been described as a "low-tech Siege's Even with much better vocals." Get ready for a real sloppy feast mutherfuckas!!
