Merry Crustmas

Got some presents for you lot, enjoy:

Hotbild - Vermod

Hotbild is a blackened crust band, though a better description is crustened black band. Really just a crust band with pure black metal vocals, kind of like what Darkthrone's been doing lately, except not as lame. Last song is fucking great though, which is really the only reason I'm uploading it.

Thin The Herd - Mournful And Overcast
Thin The Herd - Demo

Thin The Herd sounds like something I haven't posted in a long fucking time: crust. That's right, ole Zero is posting some honest to goodness His Hero Is Gone style crust. Good shit too. Demo is slightly less produced, but still generally awesomeness, while Mournful is slightly more melodic, but still more focused on speed/brutality. The female vocalist here has some fucking nasty vocals too, reminds me a bit of Renae from Skarp.

High On Crime - Two Piece By Necessity...D.I.Y. By Choice Demo
High On Crime - Until No Flags Fly

I mentioned these guys in my last post, saying Black September contains some members. Like I said, not sure WHICH members, but whatever. High On Crime is kinda similar to Thin The Herd, with that good ole crusty sound, though they also got a bit of power violence in them. Think the lovechild of Godstomper and Besthöven. Good shit though.

Black Noise Cannon - Unsaved: The reality of the silent war

Black Noise Cannon are a sludge band made up of former members of Christdriver. That's really all I should have to say. But to continue, what we get here is 3 songs, totaling 55 minutes. This isn't dirty EyeHateGod sludge here, this is epic long Neurosis shit, and it's really really good. I saw these guys with Corrupted, and didn't know who they were, but after seeing their set I immediately needed to buy their CD. Sad to say that the CD doesn't quite live up to their live show, but that's a tall order in the first place. Definitely worth downloading if you want some slow as fuck doomsludge with a misanthropic bent.

Black September - Tide of the Storm

Well now this is awesome. Crusty/death metaly shit in the vein of Bolt Thrower and Stormcrow, except this time with a chick vocalist. Badass. Contains members from Kungfu Rick and High on Crime too, which is further badass. Dunno, not much to say about it, other than the fact that this upload is slaughtering my connection. Note to self, don't upload while on DSL.

Black September - Tide of the Storm

It's Thanksgiving.

So, thanks guys.

Star Fucking Hipsters - Until We're Dead

So, apparently this came out back in September, but I only just found out. Lame.

Anyways, this is Star Fucking Hipsters. If you don't know, they're a band with Stz and Arj from Leftover Crack, and some people from World/Inferno and this other band. As you probably know, I'm a huge fan of Leftover Crack, and no, I don't want to hear any shit on how un-punk or how sold out they are. Die. But SFH, awesome. Saw them in Tomkins earlier this year, was fun. This here is their first, and so far only album, and I fucking love it. It sounds almost nothing like Leftover Crack or Choking Victim, trading in the crust influence for a more poppy sound. THIS IS NOT A BAD THING. All it does it makes the songs hyper catchy and melodic as hell. Quite enjoyable. Surprisingly very few "angry" songs, with a larger focus on melancholy and shit. And I love me some melancholy. The three songs with this, Broken, Empty Lies, and Only Sleep, are actually so fucking good, this may be my personal album of the year (if it can dethrone There Is Nothing Eternal Exists).

Seriously, this is a great album.

Warhammer 48k - Uber Om

Finished my physics homework, figured it was a good time for an upload.

Warhammer 48k is some sort of weird freaked out psych sludge. Think the slower parts to a Gasp track. Lot of discordant noise, but also some nice hooks and shit. Weird. Not too many vocals, and they're all sort of out of tune yells and shit, though it fits the odd atmosphere of the tracks. But, my absolute favorite weirdness comes in the track Haunted Abortion, where the end sounds like some bastard love child between Yeah Yeah Yeahs (fuck you, they're awesome) and something else. I don't know where I was going with that, but it's epic.

Most of you probably won't like this, but I don't give a shit.

V/A - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

I'm bored, and don't quite feel like coding while waiting for the missus to arrive, so, AN UPDATE! HUZZAH!.

I've been meaning to put this comp up for a while now, and finally got around to it. This here is some random comp I found online while looking for some Floor tracks. What it is is one of the more eclectic compilations I've seen, with sludge to stoner to power violence to grind. Shit like Floor right next to Discordance Axis. Badass. Really fuzzy production, not really sure of the source (I'm assuming 7"). Split into three albums inside the comp (bet you can't guess the names). Worth the download.

The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly

Here's the full artist list:

Floor, Cavity, 16, Toadliquor, Thug, La Gritona, Fork, Craw, Slughog, Ice Nine, Discordance Axis, Apartment 213, Devoid of Faith, Damad, Spazz, Enemy Soil, Suppression

Now tell me that line-up doesn't make you wet.

Masterpeace - World Is One

So, found some more Masterpeace, and figured it was time for a new upload, so here you go:

Masterpeace - World Is One

Contained within is a comp track, or something. Pretty decent track, though I don't think it's quite up to anything off their other albums. Also included is the World is One EP. Weird EP, starts off with a hip-hop song or something (made me think I got the wrong Masterpeace at first), but then goes right back into their nice blend of ballistic hardcore. They don't really do anything new here, but if you liked their last album, you'll like this one just fine.

Also, the Seeeing Red blog is a thief and a retard. I remember when it just started out, it did so by taking one of my uploads, and now they deny taking another, even with proof. They could at least fucking credit.
