Black minded death-thrash from Oscar and Jesse. Surprisingly similar in style to Cogumelo's classic roster, the boomboxed devil worship here is purely metallic (if structurally frantic), bearing absolutely no resemblance to the later bands that deified them. The historicity of this tape is finite, but it's an honestly fun ride, and I say that with none of the usual sycophancy imposed upon a vast majority of grindcore's pioneers. These are the raw, unprocessed wavs that Nausea's O.G. bassist Cosmo shared, ripped straight from his own tape (and authorized for upload by Oscar). What can I say, people take one look at my boyish face and Hollywood smile, and they want to wrap my ears in the fuzziest blankets imaginable...
