regression "heartless" mcd




"maybe the hardest sXe band that ever existed"
-goodlife records

its been literally decades since ive taken anything released by goodlife seriously but i think they where pretty much on the mark with this one...its not even a "guilty pleasure" record for me, this is seriously crushing, if simplistic, sXe vegan carcass worship arguably at its best, certainly the best H8000 band that ever existed (fuck congress/sektor/liar/ the rest of that lameass shit) by a mile....even the lyrics are tolerable to pretty good for the genere: "when you are old all you will have will be memories, mine will be good, how will yours be?" (from "as we speak")

i liked it in 98, i still like this record now.

shora "shaping the random" cd




another band from geneva switzerland that existed from 1999-2005(?) playing severe ear damaging noisecore.....lots of botch comparisons for this band but these guys are easily more abrasive and harsh...even the vocals peirce your eardrums like needles......its kinda like listening to a beltsander grinding the paint off your walls....but in a good way.....around 2003-04 this band  droppd their chaotic sound and became a prog-rock band in the vein of tarantula hawk or something like that, the weird thing is they dident suck at the style like so many other bands who switch styles and fall flat on their faces....anyways check this out.



breach "its me god" lp




breach were from sweden and existed from 1993 - 2006(?) and put out a number of lps......they started out playing moshy slightly NYC inspired hardcore that actually sounded alot like a combination of burn and entombed...in the mid 90s they progressed into more of a noise rock oriented sound while still keeping the hardcore intnesity........IMO this is their best record.....very much in the unsane vein but with more complexity in each song than unsane managed in an entire album.......noisy, bass driven andslightly creepy.
