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

Cornbugs - Spot The Psycho

Happy Memorial Day everybody, today we celebrate a couple of true American heroes. Old Bill Moseley aka ChopToppers and Mr. Buckethead. Two men that have boldly gone where no one in their right mind ever would or should go...the ol hook and ladder gang are at it again suckin' eggs and suckin' air...dancin' and dancin'...yeah I got you in my heart too Bill.

Chance

Parabellum

Hoppy Easter everyone, while you're busy shoving creme eggs down into your thorax, I'm gonna share a little bit of Columbian Ultra Metal history with you. Parabellum (Latin for "Into Battle") was the nastiest, darkest, and flat out most destructive proto-black metal band to come out of little old Medellin, COL. Only releasing these 2 eps in '87 and '88 (a grand total of 4 trax!) their legacy is still firmly entrenched. You think old Sepultura was dangerous? Sarcofago? Compared to Parabellum they were merely playing with matches because this is music that is not merely played...it is convulsed...a raw bloody mess of guitar torture and hellish blasphemy. The only band I can even compare Parabellum to is the equally fucked Peruvian Hadez. This is the sound of insane primitive brutality the way it has to be.

Mutacion

Humble Pie - Eat It

Well my friends International Pi(e) day is upon us and since I did such an obnoxiously wonderful post last year I figured I'd continue the tradition...so have a big piece of Humble Pie (Frampton-less) and wash it down with a big mug of black coffee...sweetened with a little brown sugar if you please.

Eat It

Antropomorphia - Necromantic Love Songs (EP)

Happy Valentine's Day Fuckers...enjoy this lovely and loving brutal Dutch death metal treat with my compliments, and remember...
Oh, wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me

Also, this is my 500th post, woot woot!

Poppin' A RUSH-Hog

Happy International RUSH day folks!

Happy XMas...Fuckers!!

Ingurgitating Oblivion - Voyage Towards Abhorrence

On this daze of thanx, as you ingurgitate yourself into oblivion on your fried brined roast and butter-infused giblets, feast your ears on this turkey...an overflowing cornucopia of Cryptopsy-esque slam-tech-vortexian death. Sure to put a smile on your loved ones faces' and turn them into a quivering pile of smashed pertaters.

Happy Thanksgiving Fuckers!!

Mercyful Fate - Melissa

Classick bone-chilling spookiness by the King and Krew. Happy Halloween!!!

502 - Viral Deity

Today is Labor Day, a day when we all can kick back, sip a tall frosty cold one, and listen to some raw black metal!! 502 (named after the Marduk song I'm guessing) is raw no doubt, but it's also pretty horrible. In fact, I must admit that my posting this on Labor Day is a bit ironic because it is such a fucking chore to get through the whole album...Recorded in anno 2002 by Russ, Clint and Shauwan, Viral Deity is a Von/Ildjarn worshipping smess of the highest order. For those that persevere, a most wonderful prize awaits at the end. If you can stomach it all the way through, you will be rewarded with the most retarded cover of Blitzkrieg Bop ever!!
So inexcusably terrible that it's almost brilliant in it's awfulness...almost.

Viral Deity

Iced Earth - The Glorious Burden

Jon Schaffer, Ripper Owens and Dick Christy go all America on everybody's ass...Happy 4th Everyone!!!

Rule This Road

Liers In Wait - Spiritually Uncontrolled Art

Hoppy Hoppy Easter everyone. I was racking my brain trying to come up with the most blasphemous thing that I could post on this holy day and came up with this little nugget. Formed by Necrolord (the renowned album cover artist) and utilizing the vocal talents of Christofer Johnsson (Therion, Carbonized), Liers unleashed this short and non too sweet EP back in '92. Owing much to the furious sounds of Altars era Morbid Angel, Spiritually Uncontrolled Art is a chaotic onslaught of Lovecraftian trem-picked math madness. Perfect as an addendum to that Easter Egg hunt or a more ribald game of "hide the egg".

Happy Easter Fuckers!

Tiamat - The Astral Sleep

Happy 420 everyone, on this most glorious of holidaze I must boast of this classick death metal album. Nowadays Tiamat is not exactly death metal, in fact they are not metal at all, playing more of a gothick cock rock. However back in 1991 Tiamat were playing ultra-glorious dirty death! Sounding like Mortuary Drape meeting Ophthalamia in a dark crypt, these songs have absolute perfect pacing...not toooo aggressive, just stuff you can headbang to. So go ahead and light one up, crank up Ancient Entity and let the good times roll.

The Astral Sleep

Happy Valentine's Day Fuckers!

If you got someone like this as your sweet valentine you are most definitely doin' somethings right.

Happy X-Mas Fuckers!

May all your Christmas dreams come true!!
