Insanity - UNRL Reh 1990 (WAV)



"MEGA rare 6 track rehearsal tape here by San Francisco's INSANITY from 1990! I thought I had lost this tape for good til I came across it recently. Chuffed to say the least! INSANITY were one of the very first Death/Thrash metal bands that went HYPERSPEED along with Genocide (Repulsion), FCDN TORMENTOR & a few others. Their 1985 rehearsal demo was a huge influence on people like Bill Steer (Napalm Death, Carcass) & Barney Greenway (Napalm D.) much like Genocide/Repulsion were, but they remained underground & never got it together due to various circumstances to make a deserved impact to a larger audience (See also the early & unreleased recordings by MASTER, MORBID ANGEL, DEVASTATION (Ill) etc that only saw an official release years, sometimes DECADES later). INSANITY have been releasing & reissuing most of their recordings themselves via their BLACK LUNG label & Chinese label AREADEATH released a 2 cd set of their material back in 2009, alongside lots of archive rehearsal & Live tracks. But THIS 1990 Rehearsal tape has appeared NOWHERE so far. No mention of it on the bands discography (both on Encyclopedia Metallum & Discogs) & not one track of it has also appeared on any compilation of some sorts either. So you now know how bat-shit rare these recordings are. 6 tracks in 28 minutes. Restored & mastered by Mahler Haze in January 2023."

Ice - "Under the Skin" CD 1993 (320 With Scans)


"Ice is a studio-only industrial/psych project from Justin Broadrick and Kevin Martin, also recruiting
John Jobaggy (drums), Dave Cochrane (bass), and Alex Buess (saxophonist/engineer) to aid in the recording process. Their debut album 'Under The Skin' is heavily comparable to both Godflesh
and the free jazz/dub textures of Martin's other band 'God'."

Inzest - "Another Religion...Another Violence" Flexi 1987 (320)


Aggressive, up-tempo Japcore with light metallic shavings
(not as wanky as their peers, but still lacerating)...

Protes Bengt - "Pick Your Bengt" MLP 1985/2018 (320)


33-years-late release of the "other half" of Prosthetic Bengt's debut recording. For the fetuses
(no shame in that), this was members of Mob 47 and Filthy Christians trying to outdo
Genocide Association's fake demo...

The Sexual VS Masturbation - Discographies & Live 83-85 (FLAC, 320, & Low-Bit)


Angsty, artsy, quintessentially Japanese rockpunk spirit...

Lokomotiv SS Tape 1985


Intrigue aboard the trans-Berlin express! Blackhouse side project...

Boiled Angel #1-4 '89-'90 & "Affliction" Documentary 1996 (MP4)

  

"Boiled Angel was an independent comic book/fanzine created by Florida-based underground artist Mike Diana. The zine contained graphic depictions of a variety of taboo and gory subject matter. In 1993, a copy of Boiled Angel #8 found its way into the hands of an assistant attorney for the state of Florida. Diana was subsequently charged with several counts of obscenity and fought a long legal battle (with the aid of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund) which he eventually lost. He was sentenced to three years of supervised probation, a $3,000 fine, 1,248 hours of community service, ordered to take a state-supervised psychiatric evaluation (and an ethics-in-journalism class, both at his own expense), to avoid contact with minors, and to completely submit to unannounced, warrantless searches by police and probation officers."

"This 45 minute documentary by Mark Hejnar is a sort of Whitman's Sampler of sickness, chronicling such wildly diverse and extreme personalities as G.G. Allin, Mike Diana, Full Force Frank, GLOD, Annie Sprinkle, and others. This collection of short clips and vile moments is certainly NOT for the squeamish, as these are the artists and performers who have taken the term 'free expression' to it's limits...and beyond."
