Pruneface - Mystery Machine

(I wasn't planning on making a post here for awhile, and that is still the plan, but I know that there were a lot of people who have been looking for this release for a while now - so here is one for the road. Thanks to Vorticist for this rip. And I will see the rest you ungrateful bastards in a few months. P.S. Join the forums.) 10 minutes of Pre-Sexdrome Punk Rock from 2005. Grating, rasp vocals over bluesy riffs reminiscent of some Brainbombs material delicately laced with quick leads and even quicker paced percussive clutter drowning in lo-fidelity hiss. Teen angst done the Denmark way.

Taut - Fantasy Mapped in Blood

Taut - Fantasy Mapped in Blood
Sorry for the delay, I know a lot of you guys have been waiting for the re-upload of this. Too many problems in my real life, as well as problems with this blog made me put this in the background for awhile. But here it is, so you can stop e-mailing me for the link. Taut sounds like nothing you've heard on CW Productions, Taut sounds like nothing you've heard in general. Taut is unsettled and manic - baleful in the most genuine sense of the word. Taut shys away for the CW formula of fast and melody driven, prideful sounding Black Metal. Instead, here, Taut creates a sound on "Fantasy Mapped in Blood" which has a surrealistic essence without coming off as lame or laughable. The tracks are slow, beaten away at a torturous pace. The sound of discomposed howling segues into the cassettes descent, a human penumbra.

Unknown Artist - Untitled

Unknown Artist - Untitled
No fame, no recognition, just cold and monotonous Black Metal. "We simply don't care about protegonism, self reference, identities other shit like that. Black Metal is a tool for something greater, it is a mere process and not a way for self gratification." Bucketfulls of blastbeats and tremolo-picking sends this band, sonically, down the narrow corridor that most Black Metal bands wander. There is a subtle inversion, distinctiveness, in the way these guys do it by whirling up a foggy atmosphere by use of their seething stomping laced with fuzzy distortion and powerful vocal rasps and shouts. Cold, sharp and totally violent. Mixing, perfectly, old school Black Metal with Death and even Punk influences. This is a lethal mixture of the best underground, extreme genres. All 6 tracks on this CD are guaranteed to please any banger with its wickedly effective pandemonium.

El-Ahrairah - Tribute To Bathory

2011-02-17T18:12:00.000-08:00

El-Ahrairah - Tribute To Bathory
Fans of this blog should remember this El-Ahrairah. They did a small batch of self-released cassettes about "Watership Down" that were quite amazing. (Search for it.) Now these guys have recorded a 3 track tribute to the great Bathory. The first two tracks are from the first S/T Bathory album while the last is culled from Under The Sign... (Oh, and look, the Goat has bunny ears...Watership Down....get it?) Every gimmick aside this is a great tape. It gets to the point and it does it quickly. The guitars showcase that buzzsaw, apocalyptic feeling that old Bathory were kings of. The killer blown-out grunts which form the vocals are a great addition. This doesn't belong in everyone's collection but if you love Bathory than check this one out.

Split - Volahn & Tukaaria

2011-02-17T17:29:00.001-08:00

Split - Volahn & Tukaaria
I've heard better from Volahn. With that being said, their side of this cassette doesn't disappoint. It's a nod to fast paced first-wave Black Metal, especially the thrashier dirtier side of the old-school. Stormy guitars, blazing drum fills and blastbeats. Nothing more you could ask for. Tukaaria spills out nearly 12 minutes of headbanging Metal that traverses a lot of ground but, at its core, it reminds me of "Blood Fire Death," era Bathory especially when the clean vocals are exposed. They exude a chilling atmosphere and the gradually building blast of the war-drums spark memories. Nothing, by either band, is necessarily complex but they have a stunning aura about them.

City Bones - Dead Close

2011-02-17T15:00:00.000-08:00

City Bones - Dead Close

4 lo-fi tracks for the tired and dejected. The changes in tempo are minimal, the vocals are low in the mix as doomful industrial textures of stinging guitar and sprung-metronome drums progress onward. Nihilist, obsessive, nevertheless built around thin rolling riffs, relentless crashing drums and monolithic layers of bedroom apathy.A few hooks will catch you off guard, i.e. the hip-shaking repetition of the finale.

Torture Chain - Across Great Landscapes to a Legacy of Blood

2010-12-11T16:56:00.000-08:00

Torture Chain - Across Great Landscapes to a Legacy of Blood
In between the "Mountains of Hate" and "Humbling Isolation Terror" the underrated American Black Metal band Torture Chain released a great 4 track tape that had somehow went unnoticed, under the radar. Expect the barbarous triumph shared by most of the traditional European Black Metal bands: wailing rasps, tremolo riffing that can change to slowed down Punk chords, and ambushing blasts with perfect pacing. But this traditional Black Metal formula is entwined with an original and primeval intensity (rare these days) creating an unpredictable atmosphere that only those with the ear and desire to conquer can do so. A document of power and aggression.

Ives - Abandon

2010-12-11T11:06:00.000-08:00

Ives - Abandon
This piece of ordnance discharges a salvo of howitzer bursts leaving the weak in pre-dug graves. These three Soldiers choose from an armament of weaponry; grating rasp vocals heard over the loud speaking demanding submission, drums hammering away at machine gun blasts and Guitars leaking waves of sarin into the mouths of the cowards, burning up the throats of the already moribund, withering souls begging for clemency. Ives is a battalion that rushes through, destroys everything in its wake, and then moves on.

Hakaristi - Hakaristi

2010-12-11T10:34:00.001-08:00

Hakaristi - Hakaristi
I am a Filth & Violence fan, a huge one. For some odd reason I almost always skip over their Metal tapes when purchasing anything from them. I own all of the Power Electronics/Noise releases in either cassette or mp3 format but I have zero Metal tapes and just a few mp3's. When I received this I was blown away. Hakaristi, which means Swastika in Finnish, delivers 6 short tracks (C10 cassette) of utterly strange galloping Black Metal laced with a very unsettling atmosphere. There is a tight rope walk between Black Metal and Power Electronics (not "Black Noise", I am talking strictly P.E. and if you need to know the difference maybe you should leave this one alone) but Hakaristi does it better than any other attempts I have heard to date and they even throw in a RAC flavor to some tracks. This is also the only other band (Ildjarn being the other) that can pull off a song with only one riff. This tape will make an example out of you.

Forgotten Spell - Desecrated Decayed And Still Holy

2010-12-09T01:01:00.000-08:00

Forgotten Spell - Desecrated Decayed And Still Holy
That maniacally incisive label Parasyte Curse slobber out another fantastic release from Germany. The sounds of Forgotten Spell boast distinguished and skillful, obvious black metal compositions, and does not suffer from inexperience even though this is only their second Demo. This album carries itself through 9 fairly long tracks of blasts and howls, a tried and true formula for Black Metal, but Forgotten Spell's contorted riffs, in their dissonant complexity, and the variety of atmosphere from track to track leave no room for trite repetition. Forgotten Spell maintains the difficult task of holding fast to the strict and conservative rules of "true" Black Metal all the while establishing their own identity with ease. Malicious and raw tunes without punk influence, noise or embarrassing attempts at being "avant". Made for Black Metal purists.

Bilirubin - June 4th, 2010 Rehearsal

2010-12-08T21:13:00.000-08:00

Bilirubin - June 4th, 2010 Rehearsal
Based loosely on the principles of the great Eisenwinter (namely his earlier releases, sans vocals) without being "worship", without being tribute. Buried melodic mushroom clouds rain down fractured and feverish hymns. 3 tracks have to lend themselves to a monolithic experience that is a slightly dulcet undercurrent rushing through an acrid central theme. There is an underlying attitude like a boot to your face and plenty of rawness, yet they burn buried melody as the smoke rises the scent of spirit-filled eloquence and sadism. Anthemic guitar lines manipulate their way to and from the odd sort of galloping drums that blend well with the overall dirge. Very few can compete with the atmosphere and force of such bands like Eisenwinter, Cirrhus and the like. Bilirubin invokes the aforementioned bands within their completely unorthodox climate which gives them an autonomous quality

Volahn - Live Ritual

2010-12-08T19:12:00.000-08:00

Volahn - Live Ritual

Volahn has never let me down, and I am sure many of the fans of this blog feel the same way. Quality musicianship dialing in to an abundance of ominous moods that never waiver. You should all know these songs by heart, and if you don't you suck. Everything is from past releases but with a lot more speed and noisy, stalactite guitars build atmospheric walls that crumble quickly as to erect another with deliberate dynamic shifts in both rhythm and barren black laments. If there exists such a thing as perfect Kaos than Volahn has always known the recipe and works it into every piece of this album, even the vocals charge the alchemical sigils like a mantra. Curse of Greyface. (Rip and upload by UndyingGlare.)

Rhinocervs - Untitled (RH02)
Me and my old lady started fucking around in the middle of this album so it's a hard review for me especially the last two tracks, I'll have to come back to this one. In either case the first two tracks exhibit atmospheric French melody pinned down between quick and uncompromising blasts. Like Shakespeare started a Black Metal band. Expect a large review of this at the Pure Stench to make up for this shitty one.

2010-12-08T01:29:00.001-08:00

Rhinocervs - Untitled (RH01)
A new label with two brand new, no frills, untitled tapes of Black Metal that cross pollinates old-school South American brutality with French atmosphere. This rare hybrid has failed before, with all of the Black Metal acts out there today it feels as if most just know how to do it mechanically while missing the target on originality, mood and content. This pair of untitled tapes hits all 4 while retaining a strong sense of minimalism and gangly technicality in wholly organic and original ways. The classically charged melodies are all ridiculously catchy contrasting the heavy and dark mood found through-out. A highly recommended piece of hypnotizing, dark ages beauty smashed up and thrown in the dirt. (Ripped by UndyingGlare)

Marching Church - At Night

2010-12-07T14:04:00.001-08:00

Marching Church - At Night
Noisy and awkward Post-Punk, as if it wasn't an already awkward enough genre. For me this took a few plays to get rolling - high off the plateau of the amazing Grå Fraktion LP I found it easier to digest this album fully, begin to enjoy it and thus bring it to the blog. This formula really shouldn't work, or it should only work in the most pretentious and lame art-scum style. But these guys pull it off perfectly; the gloom, the noise, the rawness, the tuneless vocals and Valium slow rhythms all mesh to form something unique. Posh Isolation has always known what they were doing so trust them with this one as well. If you don't like it delete it, no money lost.

Hallow - Hallow 2xLP

2010-12-03T10:38:00.000-08:00

Hallow - Hallow 2xLP

Mr. McCoy of Youth Attack fame once again conjures elements of motion and texture by the use of blown-out bedroom Black Metal. Used to accompany his penciled art show last year in L.A. this double LP is a massive, sprawling atmosphere of sounds ranging from chaotic and fast to a slow torturous pace, each ebb and flow from one track to another. Gut-rumbling distortion and reverb is poured on the already sticky sounds with Mark's vocals sounding just as dirty as then ever before. This guy can release as many new projects as he wants but it sounds as if Hallow is him home in the Black Metal genre. This is meatier than any of his other BM projects but it is also tactile, more aggressive yet anxious.

Volcanic Slut - Blasphemaster

2010-12-03T10:14:00.000-08:00

Volcanic Slut - Blasphemaster
Fast Death Thrash lingering on the outskirts of Black Metal, from members of Nazi Dust and Divisions, or so I am told. This band sounds like total destruction and mayhem of the dirtiest order, taking a good number of audible influences from early South American hellraisers and German drunks of yesteryear. The entirety of this rip is a hammering unholy communion of grim melodic old school hellish thrash rhythms and speedy ritual abuse. The Guitar tone is crisp and played at hyper speed, the drums are simple and effective and the Vocals range from quickly spouted off shouts to high pitched yelps. Awesome cover art too.

Unholy Crucifix - Scatosatyrical Slave Reh

2010-12-03T04:43:00.001-08:00

Unholy Crucifix - Scatosatyrical Slave Reh

This is the first ever full band rehearsal for Unholy Crucifix, recorded in late August of this year (8/28/2010 to be exact). Bold guitar figures are evoked to visible appearance within the smog thick Riffs. The addition of a Bass player along with the crushing speed of the new drummer hlps to string this whole thing together and make for a great primitive rehearsal in the most demonic fashion. If you are a fan of unrelenting, satanic, "war" grinding, in your face sick death than this is your cup of tea. This is one of those types of albums where you have to say "Unholy Black FUCKING Metal" instead of simply Black Metal while describing it.

Capricornus - Alone Against All

2010-12-03T04:29:00.001-08:00

Capricornus - Alone Against All
While I was posting the last Pogromnact release a thought popped in to my head telling me to post one of my personal favorite NSBM records even if it doesn't necessarily fit with the general sounds and theme of this blog. Fuck it though, it's my blog. Capricornus is a creation spawned by an ex-Infernum, ex-Graveland drummer. But this has little to no resemblance to any epic and blasting Graveland record. Instead there are 12 tracks of mid-paced hooligan Black Metal that seizes the prideful raggedness from RAC and Punk. I know a lot of you think of Akitsa or Absurd when someone hints at a Black Metal band having RAC undertones but this is different. There are no melancholic melodies or lead heavy tracks, Capricornus goes for the goose-step, Rock N' Roll styled RAC which makes for a nice change of pace every once and awhile. This thing has been out for 6 years but if you still don't have it I suggest you try it out.

Pogromnacht - KKK

2010-12-03T04:19:00.000-08:00

Pogromnacht - KKK
People on the forums have been fiending for some more Saarland Noise Nazi trash (Blackmoon Warrior 88, Totenkopf Kommando, Resist ZOG, etc) and this is really the zenith of this very specific style. K.K.K. is a 5 minute piece of oddly paced feedback hell and static hiss swallowing a faint hint of half-formed yet melodious Black Metal with screeching vocals sewn into their surroundings. A nice shot at concocting a few rapidly refined ideas that may have been meant for the self-titled release I had posted about a year ago.

Pagan Youth - Demo

2010-12-03T03:46:00.001-08:00

Pagan Youth - Demo
Typically I skip over all of the Punk and Hardcore material because I don't really care about most of it, but Pagan Youth was to hard ignore. The name alone contrasts one of my personal favorite Punk bands, Reagan Youth (although they sound nothing like one another). P.Y. is total garage shit and it is great. Drunken, spastic drumming and angry teenagers shouting about "fuck dolls" and knives. A very straight forward primal offering. Win/Win.

Time Crypt - Cruel Science

2010-12-02T20:17:00.000-08:00

Time Crypt - Cruel Science

Another late Hospital cassette that I've been sitting on until the appropriate time. The story behind this rockin' tape is a good one, so sit down and let me tell you all how this came to be. Apparently the crew from Star Trek only had access to some Hellhammer tapes, the first few Possessed records and the early era Bathory because they forgot to pack any other albums and unfortunately there are no distros to order from while you're flying around stars. One day a few members of the crew decide that they should try and record a tribute to the Gods by playing some Metal based on these sounds which they are all so used to and mix it up with their own experiences of being involved in some deep sci-fi shit. This whole affair takes 1 whole light-year, which is about a week in our time. And even though they are flying around in the year 3008 (I have never watched Star Trek so someone correct me with the year if they are nerdy enough) they somehow only have a four-track with them, which actually helps in the end by adding some authentic, hot raw fuzz to this cyberpunk space opera Blackened Thrash attack. The tape is done, rad shit indeed, and then... swoosh! The black guy with the crazy forehead drops the demo into the time machine and it somehow ends up in the year 2010 in the city of New York where some guy who doesn't wear shirts picks it up and releases it on his label. Now you can all have it. Live long....

Waste - Demo
For that very isolated pocket of people who actually download my "Noisecore" rips here is one from Canada's one man group Waste who will provide you with a strong dose of heavily fuzzed out Noisecore that should tide you over for the time being. This Demo slips between slow and torturous rattling augmented by Noise, to quick, grinding Noisecore blasts effected to shit as to accentuate its dirty charm. If you can imagine the stomping madness on the second Sadistic Bliss demo tape mixed up with Tortured Hooker you can get a somewhat clear picture of what to expect.

2010-12-02T07:55:00.001-08:00

Luciation - Occultious Inlightmentsasion
Four. That is the number in between 3 and 5, it is also the number of albums that Denmark's Luciation spawned in the last year. Building up momentum with two great Posh Isolation releases, we now see an up-and-coming label by the name of Nightmare Life carrying the torch (nice choice for a debut guys). On this swift seven track bulldozer Luciation leaves you in a wash of hypersonic blasting and fuzzed-out riffing. The production is just a bit more sterile than previous cassettes so you can hear every grating shout, gurgle and drum fill. For the new comers I would tell them to think Apocalypse Command, Nyogthaeblisz and Beherit demo's. Raw. Bestial. Filth. (Rip from tenebracid.)

Terrorism - Skyguide

2010-11-30T03:41:00.001-08:00

Terrorism - Skyguide
4 Untitled tracks consisting of gruff to shrill screams descending into rumbling electronics, fleeting drum hits and distorted, overdriven electricity the source of which is kind of hard to discern (probably a Guitar). The blasting drums and guitar wankery offering a bird’s-eye view of the twisting pit separating lucidity from the magnetic lure of fucking-losing-it. Everything is rightfully unsettling. It is fast from beginning until the final act (my favorite) where we are allowed to witness the longest, clocking in at almost 7 minutes, track on this Demo. It begins with a strangely clear drum fill, rattling cymbals rise and fall, floating and drifting, seeping into the atmosphere as a hissing ring integrating with spoken, almost chanted vocals that occasionally break into a scream upon bouncing tones and tectonic noises. It's a good come-down to a great tape. I sincerely hope to hear more from this project.

Wolven Howl - Wolf of Blackdeath

2010-11-30T03:23:00.000-08:00

Wolven Howl - Wolf of Blackdeath
The Hearse did a good expose of sorts on Korean Black Metal and I think he hammered the nail in the coffin about as deep as one can go. Therefore, this reiew will be a bit short. Wolven Howl is the noisiest of the Korean "cricle" called the Nerbilous (also the name of their DIY label). For the most part Wolven Howl plays a deep and chaotic brand of noise-laden Black Metal, but if you peek under the hood you hear tin leads and gruff vocals dying in the murk. The noisy prodction, the guitar work and the drumming are all an endlessly spiraling Noise assault. This will not be everyone's favorite, but I think everyone will take something they like from it.

Night Sins - Demo Tape

Night Sins - Demo Tape
What's this? I didn't think I would like anything about this tape, but after a few spins it grew on me (very slowly I might add). There are an abundance of jangly guitars playing simplistic "mod-revival" beats (The Jam?) with a simple '77 Punk sound. The jury's still out on whether funky will ever make a significant impact within Punk, but Night Sins take that progression and grooms it to fit into some strange dream. There are hints of subtle Gothic/Post-Punk undertones bubbling below Pink Floyd's more rockier material with Glenn Danzig circa Samhain on Vocals. Weird shit, possibly the weirdest I have put up on this blog. Maybe this is what schizos think from thought to thought. NOT METAL. NOT NOISE.

Raw Moon - Demo

2010-11-20T15:36:00.000-08:00

Raw Moon - Demo
Raw Moon plays a relentless and unusually catchy style of Black Metal that manifests obvious hardcore influences every time you look. The recording quality is clear which is good in this case, everything is perfectly audible while also maintaining a razor-like sound. 8 minutes of variously paced tunes that leave you with very little breathing room - fast but not neck breaking, melodic but still aggressive. Cold and brute vocals rounded off with quick riff progressions and a steady push of blasting drums that brings out an intriguing crash to the overall Demo. Excellent performance from each member.

Funeral Mongoloids - Retardation Nation

2010-11-18T17:24:00.001-08:00

Funeral Mongoloids - Retardation Nation
Funeral Mongoloids are a European collective of Noise makers with a nicely evolving discography. Later material is a more one-dimensional Noisecore lo-fi murmur, while earlier material, including this 2006 release, is made up of quickly fluctuating Noisecore tracks and brute force pacing. 5 tracks woven together with accelerated, noisy riffs and exploding cymbals that rattle in grunts and screams from an unknown source. Each one of these larger 5 tracks is actually made up of a collection of smaller tracks, some of them are only seconds long before everything abruptly stops and the drum sticks click together counting down to the next 15 second burst. Fans of Tortured Hooker and the Aunt Mary release I recently posted will find something they like here.

2010-11-18T17:23:00.001-08:00

Split - Altars & Halla
Altars came back to 2010 exhibiting a newer sound with a less cacophonous feel than earlier material and a far stronger Metal presence than anything he has previously done before. Cogent, commanding riffs and vocals plus nice drumming gives the Altars track a thick dominating presence. Halla also plays dominating Metal that reminds me a little bit of earlier Ash Pool material if angry wolves were in the band. Overall it's some good shit, too short for it's own good but I think this was more of a sample of things to come from both hordes.

Malveillance - Consentir A L'absurde

2010-11-14T16:34:00.000-08:00

Malveillance - Consentir A L'absurde
Finally, the wait is over. Malveillance delivers 20 songs of straight out Metal with no strings attached. Simplistic Black Metal with neanderthal Punk stomping hauling the listener through a fog of uncluttered riffs. The voice in the fog has changed a bit from previous tapes and wax grindings. "F" still gives a great Black Metal meets Hardcore roar but now he likes to throw in some deeper Death Metal-ish grunts which makes this album one of his most characteristic. Don't worry orthodox Malveillance fans, there is nothing to kick and whine about, everything from the former albums is still here, it has just been sharpened and concentrated. I don't see any way that a fan of this type of music could not like this album. Don't miss this.

Vacuus - Demo
The frenzied mood coupled with the washed out production values that are found on this tape can be compared to something like the first Ancestors demo but with a reserved melody that leers through at the right times and more attention to the basic elements of Black Metal without the changes of pace and progression one was used to hearing with Ancestors.

Blue Hummingbird on the Left - BloodFlower

2010-11-13T02:35:00.000-08:00

Blue Hummingbird on the Left - BloodFlower

I know most of you turds already have this but the reason for the re-posting of this rip was because our friend "UndyingGlare" did a far better job than whoever ripped the previous version floating around the internet (I also kept the original multiupload link, no mediafire this time guys). And because I really like this one. Basically what you get with Hummingbird is a very well done throwback to the glory days of traditional Black Metal, something many may mistakenly term "Blackened Thrash Metal" these days. This sounds like some abandoned relic from the old-school. Great mid-tempo riffs, steady Thrash rhythms that boarder somewhere between early era Bathory and the best of aggressive Punk Rock from the 80's (well placed fills and snare rolls really make the drumming stand out on this tape). Vocals that resemble a younger Jeff Becerra's gruff, yet discernible rambling. Oh, and apparently there is a flute somewhere.

Blackmoon Warrior 88 - W.P.G.

2010-11-13T02:22:00.001-08:00

Blackmoon Warrior 88 - W.P.G.
Blackmoon Warrior, like his label-mates Pogromnacht, are a hidden treasure of the National Socialist scene. Both groups (which I believe share the same one and only member) are both great Noise performers but where Pogromnacht lacks in the Black Metal department Blackmoon Warrior 88 picks up the pieces. Noise fans need not worry, though, there is a nice long introduction that plays on thick low-end pulsations and minimal feedback control reminiscent of the mid-90's American P.E. scene. The Metal kicks in right in time and displays obvious characteristics of both boisterous skinhead rock and dirty, snarling Black Metal. An obvious choice for both "Black Noise" enthusiasts and RAC flavored Black Metal fans.

Supposedly the Vegas Martyrs called it quits this year and if this is in fact true than this news naturally makes 2010 a sad year. Where most bands go out lazily, the Martyrs decided to kill themselves with dignity. Here rests 9 tracks of Noise, Metal and "psychedelic serial killer Rock" crunched down to perfect bite-sized miniatures as addictive as whatever the reason these missing women are out on the streets in the first place. Swollen guitar pieces, courtesy of Dom, cut into whirlwind, skeletal drumming. The duo does a nice job at creating the perfect foundation for the clatter of Dunn's vulgar electronic eruptions and dismal curses . If anyone out there is taking notes, this is how you do it.

Odz Manouk - Odz Manouk

Our second installment of Crepusculo Negro releases is from a new project out of, you guessed it, California. There are groups of people who think they called the decline of authentic, underground Black Metal and started to comment about it, but it just still hasn't happened. It is because of bands like this. The vocals are absolutely painful and the mountain of riffs manifest this album, along with violent drumming, into the manic and aggressive beast it is. I really think both of these new CN tapes deserve longer reviews and I know most of the "fans" here don't read the reviews anyway, so I will save the rest of my thoughts for my Pure Stench rambling. For everyone else just download it and enjoy it. Thanks to "UndyingGlare" for this rip.

Glossolalia - Gold in the Throat
If this compilation reaches the audience it has the potential to than this one man L.A. based Black Metal unit put out by the Crepusculo Negro crowd will be a sure fire hit in the underground. The markings from every great second wave Black Metal bands are all over the place here and the sound is wholly European but with the staunch aplomb that the American scene is known for. If you don't like this, you don't like Black Metal. Tracks this good won't remain unheard, no matter how little hype they generate. Thanks to "UndyingGlare" for this rip.

Jackman - Demo 2010

2010-11-11T13:48:00.001-08:00

Jackman - Demo 2010
Jackman - bad name, great music. This demo tape incautiously explores the space between raw, demo quality Punk and Black Metal and hands us the results which are entirely built on their own language. That is not to say that this is the most ambitious addition of its ilk. It is not original. It is authentic, though, and that's what makes these familiar distorted scribblings and romping drum beats captivating.

Torch of Decaying Log - 7''

2010-11-11T13:37:00.000-08:00

Torch of Decaying Log - 7''
This is easily one of the best 7 inches from a new band that came out in this glorious year. This is the gnawed and half-digested remains of quick songs, stomping beats, minimal riffs and electronics burps thrown up over Ildjarn. This quick record consists of everything I enjoy about the species of Black Metal that this blog has attempted to cater to. I had to force myself to stop playing it a dozen times a day just so I wouldn't run the risk of burning out on this entire style of music. I really hope this isn't a one time deal.

Aunt Mary - Almost Dead

2010-11-11T13:21:00.000-08:00

Aunt Mary - Almost Dead
Short-burst aggression by some Fin's raping the strings on their instruments (Pasi would later form the great Bizarre Uproar). This is standard of the time period styling of 90's Noisecore with its unpredictable changes of tempo (stop-go-stop-go) and dynamics, with audible sections of chugging Metal haphazardly thrown into the mix. Everything you need in simplistic Punk and Noise mixed together and compressed into seconds.
Buy this at Turgid Animal, the whole package and better sound is worth the cash: http://www.mutant-ape.co.uk/

Euthanizer - Euthanizer
(Following review is edited from my PureStench Blog:)

The description said that this was something along the lines of Von and Ildjarn "under the harsh wall of a CROSSED OUT rehearsal tape." Fantastic. Could you imagine that pulled off correctly? The music is what matters. You become engaged in all of it. 8 minutes is nothing, one can sit through that quite easily and when they dive in than there is no escaping it as it grows into a deep rumble which dissipates in and out of arrhythmic pulsations, quick drum stabs, low and treated vocals leaving you to listen to your tinnitus before it explodes once more in another unpredictable surge of audio jizz. Is this good? Yes, it is quite good for what it is. It is art. The best art doesn't fundamentally have to be pleasing. It doesn't have to make you feel happy or the world around you happy, it does have to provoke a reaction, some mental state, from you, whether that be revulsion, sorrow or happiness.

NEWS: The Forums and The Funeral Stench.

2010-11-08T18:31:00.000-08:00

Please stop bothering me for a link to the "new forums". As of right now the forums are not even active. I am working on them already and fixing up the logo, PHP, etc. and I promise that you will all be the first to know (who the fuck else would I tell?). There is some bad news - there will be no Download/Upload section, hidden or otherwise, on the new forums due to the basement dwelling mite(s) who continually report them. But these anti-socials who reported our forums actually inspired me to upload material to this blog again. Therefore the Funeral Stench will soon be active once again so make sure to add it back to your bookmarks and keep track by "following".

P.S. Here is a screenshot from Primal Rage.

Vucub Cane - Transformation of Holy Water...

2010-09-23T23:37:00.000-07:00

Vucub Cane - Transformation of Holy Water.
With every cassette Vucub Cane releases they have never once deviated from their chosen path, the path of pure, embryonic Black Metal that doesn't blossom into anything graceful. It stays in the dirt. True. I believe that this constant devotion to such a real form of Metal music is what draws most fans, like myself, to them, just as fans of the early Von and Ildjarn did when they began this craft. Vucub Cane, again, creates that strange, almost contradictory, parallel of concrete compositional accuracy and disheveled sounding results. (Please note that Track 1 is both the intro track and "Hail To Thee Who Overthrows Mankind", so it is truly two tracks.)

Arts - Vault of Heaven

2010-09-23T21:31:00.001-07:00

Arts - Vault of Heaven
Due to all of this bullshit happening around here I almost lost sight of what this blog was about. Good thing a new Arts album ejaculated out at the right time to help us all steer our focus back towards Black Metal and ejaculation. It is no initiated secret that Mark can definitely rip through abrasive and caustic riffs with the utmost individuality but this time we can hear some definite melody injecting itself in between rhythmic chaos and atonal torture. The recording quality seems to be better than what was heard on the last Arts output and it works nicely here. This is still raw, it still feels as if these guys jammed this one out in an outhouse, but that crude nastiness is now fully enveloped by an authentic climate of true musicianship. This one doesn't lose its touch quickly either, there are plenty of layers to discover with each spin. "Vault of Heaven" is massive and it deserves respect.

Ossea Cyphus - Stench of Ungodliness

2010-09-15T22:37:00.001-07:00

Ossea Cyphus - Stench of Ungodliness
Parasyte Curse releases unwavering and down-to-earth Black Metal cassettes of the raw variety, nothing dumbed down or targeted for specific audiences, just simple Black Metal that any fan of the genre should enjoy. That's part of their charm. Ossea Cyphus fits well into this cubby-hole and on their freshman Demo perfectly titled "Stench of Ungodliness" the band shows their proficiency through the use of 5 tracks that all share a common thread of mid-paced drums wobbling and stammering in a bizarre evocative rhythm with simplistic Guitar arrangements while the vocals can be shouts buried deep beneath the fuzz or staunch rasps in the front line leading the way through the field of cacophonous production. "All hail the Unholy New World Order!" (Thank you to DeathLikeVomit for this little beauty.)

2010-09-15T22:29:00.001-07:00

Sutekh Hexen - Constellation
American Black Noise with an emphasis on Noise. It is a shame that I am in a run and cannot review this album as deeply as I would like to but what I will say is that this one man project (correct me if I am wrong about that) uses everything at Satan's disposal to create distinctly life ruining experiences and then put them to tape. Feedback, guitars, crunchy low-end, loops, contact mics, drones, etc. This is great stuff put out by a little known Noise label named Fragment Factory. Beat up your Mom, steal her credit card and order this.

Obscurité - Aphotic Incantations & Lurid Visitations

2010-09-15T22:11:00.001-07:00

Obscurité - Aphotic Incantations & Lurid Visitations
At some point the pine cones and leaves weren't enough and this duo picked up some decent instruments and began to plug away at creating one very unique and very enduring album. Each track is eerie, distant - nonpareil, I guess, to most of the Black Metal that I personally listen to and that passes through these halls. The instrumentation is ethereal, this band is essentially, at its core, true atmospheric Black Metal and that can be fully realized after you sit through the unnerving second track "Crossing the Gateway into Funeral Evocation" and the depressing and monotonous "As the Lunar Mist Rises (The Moaning Body of Water)" both of which reach just about 15 minutes in playing time and both of which form the actual album. The other 3 tracks are interludes of sorts; the intro is jangly, noisy and haunting as is the outro, aptly titled "Withered" which gives one the sense they are in a haunted old cabin or possibly in a Dillard's. In either case, this is a good album, it was made by a good band and the seeds of a great album are definitely here. Keep on trucking guys.

Deathchurch - Necro Hell Reh

2010-09-15T02:44:00.000-07:00

Deathchurch - Necro Hell Reh
Few bands from the past or present can churn out such a claustrophobic atmosphere album after album as good as Deathchurch could. They did so by use of the most blatantly ugly effect drenched riffs atop obliterating walls of blasting snare hits that lead you down into the sinister and disturbing beauty that Deathchurch wants and needs you to be witness to. Amidst the disarray of buzzing static and throbbing feedback are the vocals of "Devotion Unto Sacrifical Torture", otherwise known as D.U.S.T. who shouts out with the angst and barbarity of Punk Rock and rasps violently with the dark, pensively cold vocals styles of traditional Black Metal. As they say in Japan; 性交いや金属！

Maximus - J'Encule Allah

2010-09-01T22:26:00.000-07:00

Maximus - J'Encule Allah
2 men from France dedicating a very short Demo tape to the promulgation of Eco-fascist beliefs, the preservation of nature, etc. A short, and excellent, intro to this Demo starts us off and sets the mood perfectly for the next (and only) track on this tape. The one and only Black Metal track then kicks off with a nice steady riff that builds into a furious, war-mongering stronghold built upon the ideals and belief systems of these 2 French tyrants. The vocals are easily my favorite part of this short Demo. Larmes de Pue, our Vocalist, spits out tormented, high-pitched screams that sound like he is in so much pain, like he just found out his father recorded over his favorite Eco-fascist documentary with Discovery's hit show "American Loggers". Fucking Dad!!!

Triangulum & Tzalemoth - Northern Occultism

2010-08-30T17:31:00.001-07:00

Triangulum & Tzalemoth - Northern Occultism
What the artist's tells us: "This is the Triangulum & Tzalemoth split cassette entitled "Northern Occultism", recorded July 2010 in the woods of northern Michigan. The six tracks featured here were recorded over a span of three seperate nights, using a minimalist setup consisting of a snare drum, carved pine branches as drum sticks, a portable 5 watt battery powered ampifier and a mini-cassette recorder." Now, what I think: Triangulum and Tzalemoth get creepy in the forest and it works out well. Both bands play melancholic and uncompromising Black Metal. Triangulum has an overall feeling that is strongly subterranean and distant while Tzalemoth plays on a more cold and repetitive brand of Black Metal common to France in the 90's. Both of these bands create a very brooding, unrelenting dissonance which matches the best in the scene pound for pound on any given day. And they did it with fucking pine branches!

Totenkopf Kommando - We are the NSBM

2010-08-30T16:22:00.001-07:00

Totenkopf Kommando - We are the NSBM
Yay, more Totenkopf Kommando! Meaning more Jew hating, xerox art, and racist saturated trash-noise that is barely discernible but always enjoyable. This Demo is almost purely Noise, with the exception of some clear drumming heard during brief sections of the last track which is a 7 and a half minute distortion filled blitzkrieg of heavy electronics. "Intro" is probably the clearest track on this tape but it is also the shortest consisting of a short Hitler speech sampled over "harsh noise walls". Track 2 consists of more ear-damaging walls of distortion that I believe are actually instruments being played, but who knows and who cares? On a side note, apparently Panzerstürm is doing some prison time for "hate crimes". So put down your fucking Finnish metal and get with "the real NSBM".

Split - Haine & Miscreant

2010-08-30T15:49:00.000-07:00

Split - Haine & Miscreant

Some of my personal favorite splits are between Noise artists and Black Metal bands; Bone Awl and The Rita, Akitsa and Prurient and now Crimes Against Skin has release a split between two lesser known groups, Haine and Miscreant. Opening up with 2 tracks is Miscreant. Both of Miscreants tracks bring down walls of crumbling distortion and stammering murmurs, and if you listen closely you can hear some type of screaming dementia going on deep within the noise. Haine is a somewhat bizarre Black Metal band with a very sharp sound to their hell raising, and they truly did managed to create something unique here on their production standards alone (the production reminds me a bit of the thinness of "Undying Glare" with more feedback) and bridges the gap between both groups and their different genres together very well. Haine plays their music in a hurried, ascending fashion, with stomping drum beats and deeply buried vocals. Together these bands form one great link of inspiring dirt.

Jute Gyte - Old Ways

2010-08-28T23:40:00.001-07:00

Jute Gyte - Old Ways

Jute Gyte plays some deviating, atmospheric Black Metal where the atmospherics are not from cascading leads or symphonic ambient synth pieces, but they are generated rather from swathes of wilting and gnarled Harsh Noise explosions. This never takes away from the actual Black Metal, though, instead it adds character and gives the discordant riffs plenty of extra vigor to thrive against constant outbursts of plodding, mid-tempo drum beats. The vocals are run-of-the-mill screeching washed in distortion. The lyrics are not average though, and they are probably one of the funnest aspects of this album: infolaser gun battles, murdered dwarves and psychedelic hippy ghouls, among other things. This has been around for a little over 3 years and I am ashamed that I am only just sharing it now.
New Upload. Thanks for pointing out the "error", but next time please get the corrupt(ed) track number(s) correct before you complain. Track 6 is back up, with a whole new upload linked.

Disguster - Flesh and Fear

2010-08-28T18:36:00.000-07:00

Disguster - Flesh and Fear

Disguster's style is reminiscent of earlier Leviathan circa "The Tenth Sub Level of Suicide" and back through some of Wrest's earlier Demo's. This cassette actually contains one of the catchiest tracks I have ever heard on a Black Metal Demo (track 3 and it is aptly titled "Stabbed at Birth") and also a song that feels like a grab bag of the prior mentioned Leviathan era, old Beherit and some fast Crossover Hardcore Punk from the 80's (this is the last track on the Demo). Altogether this tape is one fast, fuzzy, raw Black Metal demo with spectacular range.

Draugluin - Theozoology

Legion Blotan describes this as "extremely raw, mid paced black metal from Greece." You can't argue with the labels, we have recently seen where that gets us, and because Legion is (of course) right on with their description. The vocals dominate this release for me, characterized by a low growl being discharged from a dying body. Musically this is fairly slow, unhurried but deliberate, I couldn't see this turning out as good as it is if there were blasts galloping on every track. "Mid-paced black metal" suits this perfectly. Get it.

365 Days of Hate Mail and Awesome Demo's.

2010-08-28T00:21:00.000-07:00

It has been exactly one year since I registered this hell-hole and just a few hours from when I made my first posts, which was deleted pretty quickly. The first 2 posts that made it on to this blog (posts you will never see) were taken down after sobriety hit. I remember one of them was dated Aug 28th, 2009 3:01AM and was about boobs, opiates and LLN, the other post probably dealt with the same subject matter and probably sucked just as bad. After that I pretty much left this blog die off, telling myself that I wasn't cut out to "do this blog thing". But then one day while walking some sheep in a pasture I came upon a strong, glowing, bronzer-tanned man in a "Bad Boys Gym" mesh tank-top and denim shorts. His soothing voice spoke words which I will never forget for as long as I live. He said: "The pleasures of this kingdom and the one and only true heavenly bliss that a human being can feel are found within 20 year old's basements, e-bay, record store used bins, 4-tracks and pretentious labels. If you share these rewards with the world they will come. They will mock and be gay, but they will still return and the righteous will survive."

So on November 4th anno 2009 A.D. at 8:11PM I made my first true post: the first Horrid Cross demo.

That, my friends and foes, is how the Funeral Stench came to be. Righteous bros survive. Cheers.

Rapers - Rapers

Lately I have had a thing for some of these downtuned, odd, Elephant Graveyard "funeral-metal-noise" bands. Rapers belongs in this very specific category. Rapers employs about 4 minutes of swelling drones, guitar pedal manipulation, drum fills and background screaming before they ever begin to form something consistent and identifiable, not really coherent though. I don't see these guys having a large fan base or changing the world but it is fun for what it is. I like the name too, Rapers; plain and simple.
Sorry, again, for the link mix up. The new link has been updated and corrected.

Totenkopf Kommando - Fight For The Sign of The Swastika

2010-08-27T12:06:00.001-07:00

Totenkopf Kommando - Fight For The Sign of The Swastika
As you can tell by the cover art and the name of the album this band are probably proud members of the Association for Jewish Studies and the profits from this cassette probably go to helping holocaust survivors or gay marriage bills to pass. Why else would someone put a Swastika on their album? Musically this is one of those albums that slowly sinks its claws into you. There is a good deal of Noise here usually a rumbling crunch saturated in distortion or simple Guitar feedback. The Black Metal on this album definitely reminds me, at times, of older Akitsa songs, circa 1999-2001; open song structures, 2 or 3 continuous riffs and buried howling vocals. Does anyone know if this band has anything to do with Pogromnacht?

Sump - Taken Dead (new rip)

2010-08-26T16:34:00.001-07:00

Sump - Taken Dead
A new rip surfaced for this amazing cassette and it is far better than the rip I had posted earlier which I must admit was a weak one that should have never been uploaded in the first place. Thanks Derrick. Now onto the review: As with the passing and maturing of summer into the death that comes with fall we also see Sump maturing. They have ironed out their already fantastic sound to a sharp point which can show you a side of Black Metal that goes beyond aesthetics and camouflaged within its actual composition, but for you to understand and appreciate this experience it requires some participation on your part. This experience is a rarity within this raw, noisy style of Black Metal. On top of that "Taken Dead" has a bit more variation than Sumps older releases (but don't fret, this is still the same Sump we all love, with the same sound we all love) and their trademark sordidly but attentive production values keep everything pieced together in a way that only Yorkshire dirtbags like Sump could pull off. Keep up the good work, my European chums!

Ehrgeizig - Live 2009
This is a live recording of New Haven, Connecticut's great Ehrgeizig as they conduct their first live rite. Low fidelity abuse from an arresting bass whirl spinning around the shouted vocals and the quick drumming. Ehrgeizig is an untapped power of vitriolic mastery highly deserving of a nice wax LP. Labels take notice. On another note, the track listing here is a bit messy due to this being a live cassette of previous material. The track titled "IV" is actually the first song and "III" would be the second song. Both live tracks mesh together nicely so titles and categorization don't matter too much here.

Maho Neitsyt Mitale - On Punk

2010-08-26T01:46:00.000-07:00

Maho Neitsyt - Mita (on Punk)

A salute and a thank you to Aesop of the beloved Cosmic Hearse for ripping this and uploading it to his blog. Aesop has a keen taste when it comes to music so if you haven't been to his blog please click the link above to view it. Maho Neitsyt (can anyone translate this for me?) consists of 3 members who (I believe) all reside in Finland, a country which has recently been best known for their brilliant output of P.E. and Noise artists. But there is no P.E. on this record, and no Noise (per-se) either. Maho decided to go a slightly different route utilizing quickly fired "punk" riffing which is simplistic yet amusing. The crashing "Oompah" drumming follows the same credo as the Guitar and the Bass does; simple, heavy and sincere. The insidious vocal rasps fit this style nicely, while the Demo like/raw recording wrecks each riff, drum fill and shout into one another in a 100mph pile-up thus slamming it all together into a twisted mess of burning metal and rubber that is pinning down painful screams, cries bellowing from somewhere near the oil, between a smoldering engine and rosary beads that showcase clumps of hair stuck between the cross and some smashed out rear view mirror. All of them begging for the pain to stop.

I am sorry about the current situation. If you have any questions or concerns please contact me at:

samekhlamedgimel@gmail .com

So, as the subject suggests, the Blog and the Forum will both continue on and if there is ever any other problems I will address them accordingly without shutting down.

I will not remove any more links from the Download & Upload sub-forums section. Those uploads are not my own, and if your label or band has a problem with the upload you will have to contact the poster who ripped and uploaded the material in order for your material to be taken down. Also, if there is a blog post that has sprung up as a result of a forum users rip and upload I will not take that down either. There are a few labels who I already have written deals with and the old rules will still apply to those labels (those labels are aware of who they are).

This is the third post on this blog and forum where I have directly asked labels, bands and distros to e-mail me if they did not want their material uploaded here. I respect any choice you make. But please contact me at the e-mail given above or located at the end of this post before starting shit and badmouthing us.

Speaking of our printed Zine, due to 5 people backing out on the printed Zine I am sorry to announce that it (printed Zine) may never see the light of day. This is just a "big maybe" but as of right now and in the foreseeable future there will be no printed Zine.

Thank You

Holocaust - Storming Blasphemy Demo

2010-08-24T23:42:00.000-07:00

Holocaust - Storming Blasphemy Demo
Holocaust is a Canadian band that the Funeral Stench and followers probably know better as Cumming Jehova, who was actually one of the most downloaded artists here, indeed. This trio of corpsepaint wearing, forest dwelling Trolls made some of the most emotionally provocative albums that one will ever have the chance to hear...and by "emotionally provocative" I simply mean "miserably repulsive". You can not hate a band with this much dedication to this style, whether they are deaf or not. I believe they eventually made it big when they changed their name from Cumming Jehovah to Sugar Ray. Enjoy.

Book of Sand - How Beautiful to Walk Free

2010-08-24T23:22:00.000-07:00

Book of Sand - How Beautiful to Walk Free
Don't let the horrible album name fool you, this Minneapolis born 3 piece of noisy Black Metal maniacs are nothing short of precision, honed Black Noise genius. Other reviews have called them "hysterical and raw", which I fully agree to. Yet another review says Book of Sand lives in a "smeary bleary otherworld right in between WOLD and PORTAL". Personally I hear Wold, but the Portal comparison escapes me. This is downbeat, uncompromising and ethereal Black Noise that focuses more on the Black than the Noise. Every inch of tension and provocation that bubbled up from this album is as justified as it can be. Consistent and original.

Wire Werewolves - And the Moon Became a Fang

2010-08-24T21:36:00.000-07:00

Wire Werewolves - And the Moon Became a Fang
I've tried to keep up with Elephant Graveyard (Chondritic Sound's Metal sub-label) which is a label who put out some hit or miss albums that are usually in the lo-fi, Sludge Metal arena. Sacred Assault was one of those bands, one of those "hits" from the label and also one of the most overlooked bands that has been posted here. Now I introduce Wire Werewolves who sound like a band that could have fit nicely on the Woodsmoke roster (at least their early stuff, their new material is scuzzy drone Noise). WW's vocalist is great, his words prick, bite and sting the ear drums as this impressive ensemble of music makers spins out groove after chugging groove as well as blastbeats, quick rolls and punk beats. And the production isn't really lo-fi, per-se, instead it is a tolerable fuzziness that, rather than washing out the sound, gives it an appealing gritty edge.

Sexdrome - Grown Younger

2010-08-20T22:21:00.000-07:00

Sexdrome - Grown Younger
If you think this cover looks bizarre than wait until you hear the music and if you think the music is trashy, "Punk Metal Evil" perfection than you're absolutely right. Straight out of the gates with track 1, "W.I.E.R.V.W.I.", Sexdrome establishes this 12'' as something new with a jangly and methodical build-up that explodes into plodding punk fever dreams and throat bleeding rasp vocals. All of the songs featured seem to trade off between fierce Blackened dirges and natural, organic hardcore inspired punk anthems. For this style of music the songs all feel (somehow) original, not regressive, and I guess that is really the art here. This 12'' fills a hole in the catalogue of Black Metal that really needed to be filled, essentially updating this sound and in the end giving us a very enjoyable piece of work.

Willing Feet - Willing Feet

2010-08-20T17:26:00.000-07:00

Willing Feet - Willing Feet

Willing Feet is another new band to pop up from the abyss and strike us with a nice debut that is simple and magnetic. 4 tracks are offered here, all of which follow a fairly rigid formula which takes advice from Ildjarn records and Bone Awl cassettes. Blastbeats are traded in for a lumbering lineage of punk drumming. Tremolo picking is taken over by downtuned simplistic riffs that remain exciting even in their (occasional) tempered moments. Uncompromising vocals are buried deep in the mix while searching for a way to drive their point home. All of this clashes together for an eerie atmosphere, and the crisp, raw production adds a feeling of fear and loss, as if something bad is going to happen.

Luciation - Darkend Apocalyptic Occult Goat Ritual

2010-08-16T01:52:00.000-07:00

Luciation - Darkend Apocalyptic Occult Goat Ritual
Luciation completely meets and then destroys any expectations you had for them in 4 short blows of pure audi0 carnage. This album is absolutely heavy in every sense of the word, almost oppressively so at times, showcasing 15 minutes of crushing and paralyzing true Black Metal. There isn't much left for the imagination to grasp onto with this one. Every track, displayed in their lo-fi beauty, is played at a blistering pace; guitars fighting to breath, rasp vocals loud and clear while crashing cymbals tend to predominate the break-neck drumming. The atmosphere which this album gives off needs to be felt and no more words can do it justice. Satan.

Split - Sump & Sex Wound

2010-08-16T01:48:00.000-07:00

Split - Sump & Sex Wound
Though this release is fairly short, its sound and the conviction in the way songs are played makes it seem as if it were twice as long. Sump can really never do any wrong by me and even in their most simplistic they seems to shine brighter than most, and this material of theirs is pretty damn simplistic. They barrage us with an assortment of dissonant-yet-catchy punk rock violence and wailing Black Metal vocals all under the guise of infected, raw production. Sex Wound is a first for this blog but they fit in nicely with a thin layer of Noisecore messiness, painful for all the poor souls who hear it.

Drekavac - Grave Dirt and Blood

2010-08-16T01:36:00.001-07:00

Drekavac - Grave Dirt and Blood
I still retain a nice dose of enjoyment for new and unsigned bands, though most are not innovative anymore, but in the case of Drekavac I have come to realize a few things. You can sit nicely at the throne of Ildjarn, pull your shitty amp up to it and start blasting away without any consideration while a 4-track sits in the back and clicks away your tracks and in most cases it will sound like complete shit but sometimes a nice diamond will sneak through. Worship has never been the same thing as tribute, a simple "thank you" is not the same as a money back guarantee. Fine then...lesson learned.

Erhabenheit - Vom Zerfall Der Seelengemauer

2010-08-07T13:11:00.000-07:00

Erhabenheit - Vom Zerfall Der Seelengemauer
Erhabenheit is a German trio which features members from Rites of Cleansing and the great Odal. This was their first Demo as Erhabenheit, but obviously not their first attempt at making finely tuned European Black Metal, and although their is nothing original about this album there is something awe inspiring and exceptional. We are bombarded by the usual blastbeats and tremolo picking of bands found in or around the Netherlands, we are scratched at by the raspy and distortion crunchy vocals of bands from modern America and the production is raw but in a "demo tape quality" type of way. When this is put together it feels nice, not original, just nice (in the most evil way possible, of course). This goes back to basics, primitiveness, old school, fucking Metal.

2010-08-01T20:44:00.000-07:00

Nacht der Sunwheel - Totales Krieg
This is some really weird shit, it apparently has something to do with the NS one man band known as Blackmoon Warrior 88. Our good friend "R" had posted this at the forums awhile back and it was overlooked by many and, personally, I feel this just has to be heard. One distro that carries it described it as "Nazi techno for a gay bar that never existed, or something." While another called it "Wewelsburg with even more hints of trip-hop/industrial music. Nazi Disco a go-go baby." I can't describe it any better so shave your heads, do some speed and get down, scum bags.

Deep Jew - Find a Way

2010-07-31T01:47:00.001-07:00

Deep Jew - Find a Way
Noisy guitar improvisation and shouted vocals; that is what Deep Jew does best and this 2 track cassette succeeds in helping that narrative. Deep Jew seems completely rigid and stubborn in their dedication to being indecently loud, messy and noisy. I would have it no other way.

Arianrhod - La Reme Blanche

I usually try as hard as I can to not post shit that The Hearse has but god damn, this is really good stuff and deserves to be raped by two blogs: one anal, the other one can have the mouth. The sound is...well, raw and sloppy but it also has that Canadian thing going for it (think Stella Polaris more than Akitsa). Arianrhod, who play minimalist neo-primitive BM, manages to convey sheer hatred and pure bitterness into beauty and I find that generally arousing. I would not suggest this to fans of Bone Awl or Sump or really any punk/stomp BM like that, so be forewarned before downloading it.

Voqkrre - Malveillance (Demo)
Look at this evil French fucker, the ball of light running away in the background doesn't even want anything to do with him. This tape sounds like it should have been on Fossbrenna. It is slow (with the exception of a few seconds of double bass rolls), depressing and monotonous to the extreme. Like those aforementioned Fossbrenna bands, Voqkrre can also do a good job creating dark and ugly scenery smothered in a sea of raw production and it becomes strangely captivating. Fans of Jammerskrik (the handful of them) and the first Unbeing "Demo" will be pleased.

Axnaar - Anart
One man, Pre-Sump madness. Some of the noisiest shit I have heard in awhile, I don't even know what to call it other than an unedited, sound debauch. Sheer brutality, rape and evil oozing from your headphones. Side note: the image above is not the cover art but it is fitting and I believe a member of the band drew it so it works.

Eisenwinter - Monumentales Scheitern
Sex cover: nuclear granny in pie-baking garb, "kvlt" identification badge. I haven't heard this much but from what I have heard Mr. Z Grief has not matured or perfected his style just yet. Don't get me wrong, his old material was pretty good especially his splits and the short "Reichswinter" EP. If you are a fan than you know what you are getting. And what is it that you, friendly costumer, are getting? Melodic guitar leads and (may I dare say it...) some pseudo pop riffs and leads. Crashing drums is nothing new and dramatically thin, raw production seasons this down for us. P.S. This is a MegaUpload link simply because (1) I was too busy, and (2)I don't much like this album enough to waste my time uploading it. If a mediafire link is absolutely needed than let me know, otherwise this will work just fine.

Sadistic Bliss - II

2010-07-27T18:40:00.000-07:00

Sadistic Bliss - II
Sadistic Bliss is the definition of Noisecore. Discordant noises and feedback attempt to kill out the vocals but the loud screams always win over. The drumming is spectacular here, even if it is a bit fledgling and caustic (this is Noise, though, what did you expect?). Each track builds itself up nice and slowly in a very monotonous manner, pushing the listeners patience at times so this is unquestionably not suitable for the feeble or new Noiscore fan. For everyone else, especially fans of bands like Funeral Mongoloids and Deep Jew, pay attention. link fixed

Teeth Gnashers - Dont Ask Dont Tell

2010-07-27T18:18:00.000-07:00

Teeth Gnashers - Don't Ask Don't Tell
We find Teeth Gnashers at their strongest in 2010 with the release of this cassette, which I think brings this band from the witty-garage-band catagory into a more serious light "Don't Ask Don't Tell", to me, is their magnum opus, at least for now. I could go on and on about this one; it's original, it crosses boundaries and weaves genres together easily, it provokes energy and excitement, etc, etc. All of this happens while the band stays true to their humor, and anger. Sound wise the band stays the same: blacked punk with tons of noise and horrible production. Just how we like it: "we're not here to mosh."

2010-07-27T03:25:00.000-07:00

Kärsimysnäytelmä! - S/T
Filth & Violence teamed up with Bestial Burst for this strange Black Noise pièce de résistance from Finland. There is, luckily, a good balance of both Black Metal and Noise, although it can come across as a bit unintelligible and vague, but like I said, this is Black Noise and you will adapt in time. Guitar feedback, blastbeats, metal abuse, looped samples, lo-fi production and one of the greatest assortments of screams, shouts and howls I have heard in this context. Then there is Track 4 which reminds me of something you would find on an early Crass or Poison Girls album (I think that Mrs. Bizarre Uproar may behind the vocals on this track, correct me if I am wrong) is the standout track with "Juudas", which may be the only pure Metal track on this cassette, is a close runner up. YOU WILL ADAPT.

Savage Purification - Demo

2010-07-26T05:24:00.000-07:00

Savage Purification - Demo

Briefly changing degrees of plodding Black Metal with an amplitude of Punk influenced structure can be found somewhere around, scattered about and buried. Savage Purification's percussion usually stays within the same range, that is, between mid-paced Punk stammers to faster patterns and ver loose usage of fills. The top qualities to be found here are the Vocals and the overall atmosphere. This is straightforward BM that will keep you entertained.

Gammal Sed - Blót

2010-07-24T08:11:00.000-07:00

Gammal Sed - Blót
Gammal Sad is another enigma from the Yorkshire area which soon became known as White Medal. These wretched bodies truly get the true, cold and "grim" atmosphere of Black Metal across in this Demo, at the same time while living up to (and sometimes beyond) a few of their side projects and counterparts. Guitars and Drums have a nice pairing that assault you, chord after chord and hit after hit with striking simplicity without the east bit of boredom seeping through. The production is raw (afterall this was recorded n a 4-track) and the Vocals add a sincerely foreboding atmosphere to the overall cassette. Gammal Sad took the bleak and minimal side of Black Metal and not only made it their own but turned the beast into a new and more potent form devoid of drivel. Bands like this are imperative for a genre like Black Metal and do nothing but good for the entire scene, whether you enjoy this style or not. So far this is my favorite BM release this year. You can buy this, as of right now, through Turgid Animal. On a side note: This was ''R's'' last upload for the Funeral Stench, which is a shame since he gave us tons of amazing rips including all of the Black Cilice rips seen on these forums. Thank him in the comments section if you feel obliged.

Ravensdom - Demo II

Ravensdom - Demo II

Demo II shows us a nice, subtle side to these French anarchists. You know French Metal when you hear it and this Demo definitely has that unique French aura about it, nice melodic leads and a classical atmosphere with nice variations on speed from blasts to monotonous banging drum beats that have a very downbeat Punk feeling to them, like a slower Malveillance. The vocals are a bit strange, mostly in a low whisper, and they take some time to get used to but when they grow on you they feel like they capture the perfect feeling of dread and madness that this band showcases.

Cryptic Salve Band - Auld Rags

I hate explaining the reasons why I like this stuff to people every time they hear it. Why do they have so many tattoo's and why do you think you are so original? Anyway, C.S.B. strikes us again, straight to the nerve centers in a headache inducing stampede of finely crafted Noise Rock assaults from the other side of the Atlantic. A tasteless choice of bullying high frequency whispers and hurried rhythms connecting one set with the next into a giant nightmare with dirty lo-fi production.

Kallathon - Before Drifting Into the Abyss

2010-07-19T14:08:00.000-07:00

Kallathon - Before Drifting Into the Abyss

Kallathon is another amazingly fresh and unorthodox Black Twilight band that will mesmerize even the most seasoned with their long flowing tracks dedicated to the art of "ritual kaos worship". This Demo showcases the highest caliber of pure atmospheric Black Metal without any bullshit post-rock or ''shoegazer'' influences. The unique style of cold, raw yet pristine shining Guitar sweeps that build and swell is something rarely heard within the United States BM scenes, and even though these guys fit nicely into the niche that the Black Twilight Circle has mined for themselves Kallathon also emanates with the utmost individuality. This one should not be missed. A huge thank you to Lucko for this upload. (This will be put on mediafire as needed.)

Tortured Hooker - Asshole Play is Her Favorite

Tortured Hooker - Asshole Play is Her Favorite
The sounds here hearken back to the Tortured Hooker debut "Korreatown Fellatio" as well as the old sounds of the mid 90's Noise-Grind craze. Blinding and disheveled blasts accompany the wild flutter of sub-woofer rattling distortion and guttural vocals. There is nothing extra here, just the bare naked nastiness that this style needs without any forced intensity. Tons of punch shoved into two 5 minute tracks. Thanks to Half Aborted for sharing this extremely limited rip of his.

2010-07-04T00:26:00.000-07:00

Xibalba - Demo 2010
Hailing from Mexico is Xibalba who, after 16 years of silence, offer up some strangely captivating raw Black Metal with furious Thrash styled riffs and mid-paced drum blasts that pummel the night skies through until dawn, with an emphasis on the delivery and atmosphere instead of style and technicality. Gutteral rasps vibrate lyrics across the astral about ancestors and the Mexican pantheon of Gods. Highly recommended.

New downloads will be posted soon. I was going to let this place die but I've received a ton of e-mails and PM's asking to bring it back so fuck everyone who doesn't like it, if you don't like this place stop coming here. And a special shout to Marko Novikov (however the fuck you spell that) from Las Vegas for talking a ton shit for months, threatening me and then challenging me to a fight (in front of a Dennys none-the-less) and then backing out before I could even finish my breakfast.

For those of you who are wondering about the Zine, yes, it is still going to come out. The release date is unknown because I want to get a few more interviews snuck in there and put some finishing touches on it. So far we have 7 awesome bands, all of which have been featured here, interviewed in this first issue as well as almost 40 full reviews, a fucked up short-story someone sent in, art and trade-lists. Be patient, it will come and best of all it is going to be free to members of the forum, so if you haven't signed up over there yet make sure to do so.

If anyone here runs a label or is in a band and they would like me to post their material please e-mail me at samekhlamedgimel@gmail.com . If you run a label or you are in a band and you do NOT want your material on this blog please do the same and I will make sure to exclude all of your releases from future posts.

Ravensdom - Demo IV

Ravensdom - Demo IV
Imagine a drum-circle of smelly, hacky-sack kicking hippies playing blastbeats and growling (but this is nothing like Wolves in the Throne Room, big difference). Demo IV is another installment of pinko bastard Raw Black Metal with a lot of flavor. At times it has the slower mythical and romantic styles seen in French BM, at other times we are at the south bay U.S.A. jamming out with smelly crusties. Overall it is pretty damn good. Nothing too raw but it is far from polished and sophisticated. Try it, if you don't like it deleting a folder isn't that fucking hard.

Genocide Holocaust - National Socialism

Genocide Holocaust - National Socialism
There is absolutely no information about this band out there, it was offered in the C-box by honkeybutcher so I downloaded it and listen through. There is some very simplistic Punk riffs and mid-paced drumming so hard to hear due to the recorded of this material (the recording/ripping almost made this a deal breaker to post). Vocals shriek out and are hard to tell at times if they are even vocals or static/samples. Minimal, very little movement and VERY raw no-fi quality. You need to turn the volume up or listen to this on headphones due to the horrid production. Fuck recording quality snobs.

Swordfuck - Mastering the Art of Slaughter
Rumor has it that Mark McCoy was in this band and it isn't too hard to believe but, of course, this is hard to figure out due to the aura of mystery which follows bands like this. Each track on this tape is filled with good Raw Black Metal smothered small hints of noise. This was recorded in the late 90's which really helps me get believe in its glory, I feel that this hellish atmosphere is unrestrained by gimmicks and any kind of falsities or "trend hopping" since this was released long before this huge slew of scattered raw BM. I highly recommend this to all.

Swamp Toad - Mire Ensemble

2010-04-28T22:31:00.001-07:00

Swamp Toad - Mire Ensemble
Swamp Toad from Portland has a sound that rests somewhere in between bedroom brutalizers such as Ildjarn, Bone Awl and Torgeist and some more modern noisy debauchees. The sound is carnivorous and distorted with a primitive atmosphere that never disappears from beginning to end. Our vocalists seems like a machine at times so much so that his screams on a few tracks are questionably treated to the point where it feels like junk abuse, metallic showers. Every track is swift, most never meeting the 2 minute mark, getting straight to the point making sure to blast your eardrums out the entire time.

2010-04-24T18:11:00.001-07:00

Tortured Hooker - An Offenders MO Can Change....
A new one from Tortured Hooker featuring 3 tracks of recklessly composed fragmented riff ideas and bizarre transitions between Noise and Metal awash in static pulsation and feedback. 90% this cassette feels improvised, rarely it flows together but when it does that structure only helps give birth to complete dispersion, each track being ripped through without any interruptions. The production is very crude and thin as if it was recorded with a 4-track covered in vomit during a live set in a basement somewhere in America. If they were going for an atmosphere of chaos and insanity than they hit the nail on the head. Audio masochism of the highest order. Thanks to "r" for this rip.

2010-04-24T18:09:00.001-07:00

Glass Coffin - Blood of a Godless Moon
One man Lo-fi Black Metal from the states on Husk records. The Guitars lay out some ugly and buzzing Black Metal riffs with a lot of Punk and Thrash influences along with simple straightforward drumming, not many blastbeats to be found here but there is enough variation from track to track keeping the album sounding fresh and interesting throughout. The vocals are old-school death rasps singing in praise of Satan. Invert the cross!
