AANAL BEHEMOTH - "forest paranoid" (SUFFERING JESUS) - 5e, 300 den.
Finland has given us plenty of fucked up black metal bands; Beherit, Impaled Nazarene, Clandestine Blaze, Wyrd, and Trollheim's Grott all spring to mind. It seems to me that the Finnish metal scene is a fertile environment for weird, punky blackness in particular, but while the debut album from Aanal Beehemoth straddles both the blasted catharsis of punk and the negation and atavism of black metal, Forest Paranoid is in it's own weird world, a freakish splooge of psychedelic necropunk that drips filth and junkie sweat from their reverb-soaked jams.
The whole album is whacked out, from the photos of members Deathly Fightor and Crazy Bomber in over-the-top corpse paint and their faces contorted into gruesome kabuki-like grimaces, smoking joints and shooting junk, to their band name (what the fuck does Aanal Beehemoth even mean?), but it's their music that is really frying my brain. A grotty sort of garage punk, fast and loose and catchy as hell, but filtered through utterly weirdo black metal with the vocals jammed through a bunch of trippy effects. Take a look at the influences that the band lists on their MySpace page - Hellhammer, early 80's Finnish punks Kaaos, the outsider garage rock of The Shaggs, Gism, Elvis, and Black Flag...that might give you an idea of what's festering on this album.
The album was recorded on a 4-track, and the raw production fits these damaged blackpunk anthems perfectly; it feels like yer hearing the band jamming at full force down in some slime-covered dungeon, grinding out their three minute buzzsaw anthems in abandon, slinging crazy acid-guitar solos, dreamy organ freakouts that sound like the band dragged a beat up old Hammond into the middle of their cave, mutant blasts of ghostly ambience and electronic effects, and best of all, surprising bits of pretty psychedelic melody and trippy guitar lines that show up in almost every song. Imagine if you took a primal 60's garage punk outfit like the Stooges, or the Sonics, or the MC5, ripped them out of their timeline and transported them to a snowy Scandanavian forest circa now, and left 'em to their own devices with only a crate of Kossu and copies of Darkthrone's Plaguewielder, GISM's Detestation and Celtic Frost's Morbid Angels to guide them through the void. It fits right in on Suffering Jesus alongside the psychedelic 70's rock/black metal of Tjolgtjar, but where Tjolgtjar is deadly serious with his weirdo occultic themes and wonky black-acid-metal, the tongues of the Aanal Beehemoth is firmly planted in it's collective cheek, as evidenced by songs like "From Aanal With Love" and "Loaded Head Empty Veins". Regardless, this freaking rocks.

ARTIMUS PYLE - "civil dead" (PRANK) - 5e, 300 den.
Loud, hurtful and heavy-as-fuck downtuned crunch and blinding hardcore fury from the re-tooled members of FUCKFACE. As hyperactive and mean as ever, but with added elements of dark and heavy. It's on Prank so you know you're going to get an earful. Previous 7-inch on Life is Abuse.

BILL SKINS FIFTH - s/t (FUCK YOGA) - 5e, 300 den.
"A pretty strange album from Macedonia of all places (which was previously a part of Yugoslavia, if yer geography is rusty), sent to us by Fuck Yoga Records. The bizarre name is a reference to Silence Of The Lambs, and these guys aren't the only band to use it: some quick google scanning turned up a Texan harsh noise outfit from the early '90s that had members of Black Leather Jesus and a funk-punk band from Oregon who both used the same name. The Macedonian Bill Skins Fifth is neither harsh power electronics nor Faith No More-influenced rap gunk, however. Rather, these weirdos cobble together a chaotic, fucked-up mess of neurotic metalcore, jazz, mathy indie rock, and melodic post-hardcore that's pretty damn experimental and disjointed but actually manages to keep me interested in spite of it schizo patchwork of dissonant metallic hardcore somewhere in between older Converge and Botch colliding head-on with jangly angular guitars, pop hooks, Primus-y basslines, and full on blasts of free jazz. I think there's some kind of concept at work here, with the series of illustrations in the booklet and the abstract personal lyrics seeming to tie into an ongoing story the band is telling with this album, but I'm not too sure. In any case, this is some cool, damaged metalcore weirdness, that's for sure." (CRUCIAL BLAST)
BLACK BREATH - "heavy breathing" (SOUTHERN LORD) - 10e, 600 den.
ENTOMBEDcore
BLACK ELK - s/t (CRUCIAL BLAST) - 5e, 300 den.
The eponymous debut from Portland, Oregon's BLACK ELK is a raging destructo rock eruption, heavy, catchy, and flattening. This ten song album contains a creeped out conglom of carnivorous charred hardcore punk, the sludgy power of primo Pacific Northwest tarpit rawk (think KARP, MELVINS, and early SOUNDGARDEN as reference points), twitchy Midwestern noise rage somewhere between Am Rep Records (circa-1991) and a more rabid DIE KREUZEN, and a goatheaded psychedelic backwoods black mass/dance party risen to a freakin' fever pitch. Total crush. Produced by Mike Lastra at Smegma Studios (EARTH, THRONES, JACKIE O MOTHERFUCKER).

BLOOD I BLEED - "high octane thrash" (SELFMADEGOD) - 4e, 250 den.
Founded in 2002 by former members of well-known violent hardcore/grindcore outfit My Minds Mine, high quality music with an enormous potential for success in the underground community is what you can expect from Holland's Blood I Bleed. Essentially a logical continuation of what the Dutchmen have been doing for years, yet a new approach to the overall expression based on and inspired by renown acts like Heresy, Intense Degree or S.O.B., to name a few. Influenced by the 80's hardcore, grindcore, as well as Japanese hardcore bands, the furious quartet is a force to be reckoned with. High velocity hardcore / thrash with power that cannot be denied. "High Octane Thrash" comprises a big part of all the songs Blood I Bleed has put out on vinyl so far, such as the self-titled 7", the split EP's with Under Pressure, Sound Like Shit, Unholy Grave, compilation tracks and cover songs from Heresy, Negative FX, Fear Of God and BGK. A total of 32 songs that will blow your socks off. Singer Rosco (also My Minds Mine) has just took over vocal duties again, which makes things sound even more extreme. Like a high-octane fuel racing car, Blood I Bleed stops at nothing. More power to their elbow!

BURMESE/ CADAVER EYES split (HCB/ NSI) - 6e, 350 den.
Like demented twins in crime, Burmese (tUMULt / Load Records) & Cadaver Eyes rephrase Doom, Grindcore and Power Electronics by using an agonizing mechanism of plain brutal aesthetics, ascending these genres to a higher level of cognitive surge. This split CD is difficult and pungent, a warm spew in the face and an endless buzz in the eardrum that fiercely occupies the brain and treats the grey cells as if they were an ashtray. A crude awakening and a classic case of ponderous self indulgence.
BURMESE/ FISTULA - split (CRUCIAL BLAST) - 6e, 350 den.
Hyper destructive low-end violence from two of the American underground's most ferocious hate-sludge outfits. A dual assault from feedback-warriors BURMESE and battle-sludge titans FISTULA. BURMESE annhilate everything before them with a lethal blast of low frequency skree tantrums, cough-syrup drenched blastbeats, WHITEHOUSE-worshipping noise, and demonic free improvised violence. Think KHANATE, DROPDEAD, EARTH, and MERZBOW in an earth shattering, widow-making basement deathmatch. Ohio 's FISTULA batter up with megaheavy sludge, blistering blackened thrash, diseased rock, and some incredibly infectious riffs . Hear these tarpit battle anthems, hail the low frequency berserker. BURMESE burn you down...FISTULA pisses all over the ashes.

CATHODE - "...a machine that never falters" (DIY CONSPIRACY) - 3e, 200 den.
"Awesome 8 song full length of dark, crushing hardcore from Holland that is caught somewhere between the Portland "epic crustcore" sound of Tragedy & From Ashes Rise (but MUCH faster and more pissed off) and discordant,apocalyptic bands like Catharsis and Gehennna.There's also a little of that insane german metalcore thing going on here too, a la Acme Systral Morser. From the first blast of nightmarish riffing that rips out of the speakers,to the last shredded scream of defiance, this is dark, ultra-crushing stuff with a fierce anti-authoritarian/anti-consumerist bone to pick."

COLD NORTHERN VENGEANCE - "the arising dungeon cult" (IXIOL) - 5e, 300 den.   
One of the US's best bands, Cold Northern Vengeance offer their debut full-length of heathen black metal with Swede death-isms for a well rounded attack. Atmospheric and poignant, there isn't one bad song on this disc. Searing melodies and a caustic sense of aggression embody the best of the US, Euro and Scandinavian scenes. CNV is uniquely developed and an important band arising from US soil.

CROWPATH - "old cuts and blunt knives" (ROBOTIC EMPIRE) - 7e, 420 den.   
Finally back in stock! The cacophony created by Swedish metal overlords CROWPATH is astonishingly innovative but more importantly, all-encompassing in its sheer brutality! Absolutely inhumanly-fast yet stylish drumming and wild bass lines are the backbone for an amalgamation of creative riff after riff. The off-timed chaos is superbly held together with demon-like vocals that range from crazed screams to evil guttural yells. By fusing the finest elements of tech metal, grindcore and death metal with a good dose of hardcore battery, Crowpath's debut CD is a very fresh outlook on heavy music and is undoubtedly going to reshape the way many modern metal bands think. This collections disc (mastered by Pig Destroyer's Scott Hull) compiles all of their vinyl-only efforts and two exclusively mastered preview tracks from their phenomenal Red on Chrome album on Willowtip/Earache.

DAZD - s/t (FUCK YOGA) - 5e, 300 den.
"Killer apocalyptic hardcore from Serbia! This band is pretty wild; they bring together weird occult themes and imagery, their album art full of esoteric sigils, woodcut artwork, and surreal paintings from Jason Barnett, the lyrics exploring themes of anarchism, paganism, and earth magick, while the music is a mix of grim post-punk dirges a la Amebix/Killing Joke, psychedelia, and violent hardcore rituals, and also list Japanese maniacs GISM and cult Swiss metallers Hellhammer as influences. At first, Dazd start things off with a wasted doomed crawl, the opening track all stomping old school doom metal in the vein of Pentagram and Sabbath, heavy bluesy riffing creeping over reverb-drenched drums while screams echo in the distance; but the second track sets the tone for the rest of the album, beginning as a gloomy instrumental hardcore dirge, heavy winding bass and skronky, Ginn-esque guitar matched with droning riffs and spacey synthesizers, eventually starting to sound like a faster, more feral version of Amebix. From there, the album travels through fast hardcore punk fronted by snarling slobbering screams and delirious chanting, stretches of electronic noise and droning synths and Hawkwindian space fx, pounding metallic sludge, galloping old school metal, D-beat driven thrash, finally arriving at the wailing tribal punk dirge of "Duboko Duboko" where the band digs into another Killing Joke-esque jam with Hammond organs and emotional weeping vocals. Strange and unpredictable occult hardcore bound in amazing surreal imagery - Dazd are highly recommended for fans of brutal left-field HC." Crucial Blast review.
