Funeral Bitch - "Nuke 'Em" Demo 3 '88, Soundboard WZRD Radio '88, Live (Mahler's Rip) 9-22-87

Post Master/Deathstrike, and pre Master/Deathstrike too! Proto-grinding heavy thrash that directly influenced Terrorizer, Carcass, and Napalm Death. Headbang til' cervical disc herniation with the rips below, then dig deep into the blog's bowels for the rips of demos 1 & 2 (on an official 7") while nakedly worshiping founder of all three bands, Paul Speckmann, as the Lemmy of death metal that he always was, is and always shall be!!

KBD Swede Outtakes 2xCDR 2006

Originally slated for an authorized CD boxset, these outtakes (under each song's listing is a text-length explanation for its particular exclusion from the official release) were booted by the same label and made available through various blog comment sections...for a nominal fee of course. Most of the bands seem to be playing AOR instead of punk (the safety pin sound is there, just veeeeeerrry diffuse amongst the tracks), so going from that to Mob 47 is a change so melodramatic I can't even begin to speculate what was really going on in those freezing garages. Download, and soft-rock out...

Goetia - "Space Distortion" 12" 2006

Tachycardia T-E-R-R-O-R from Morocco's speedcore goddess Siham Chafik. Incontestably her roughest EP, the kicks are so Goatse-level blown out that they bruise black holes (and so unremittingly patterned that Goatse-sized holes are punctured in reality itself). With 20+ releases on hXc linchpins such as Strike and Psychik Genocide (s.i.c.), you know this kitty's got more than claws, she's rockin' straight up Krueger gloves! Fave Track: "Trashforce"


"The Ancient Greek word 'goēteía' means 'charm, jugglery, sorcery'. During the Renaissance, 'goëtia' was sometimes contrasted with 'magia' as evil magic vs good magic."

Sanktio - "Ei Toimi Enää" CDEP 2001

Growing up in Socal, I was no stranger to the "beach punk" sound (whether the bands resided in Huntington Beach or Huntington Park, they were fairly communal in emotive chord choices). I've never been a Bad Religion sorta guy, but I've also never been entirely immune to rare songs in the style creeping into my ears and ticklin' muh stapes. It was serendipity when Sami Kettunen asked me to do artwork for a Finnish group inspired by that scene (Finns really do surf by the way). They just needed a cover, and would handle the rest of the layout themselves...which I shouldn't have let them do, though I can't talk too much shit as...just...look...at those...football extremities. I think I was going for a Pushead rag doll thing, and instead had a mindfart of apocalyptic proportions. But anyway, I get my artist's copy, throw it on out of morbid curiosity, and LOVED it! It was melodic...of course...clean cut...of course...primed for a Vans sponsorship...of course...but it just grabbed me, the posi vibe, the blistering soul in the vocals, the not-too-irritatingly-Epitaph-production, it held my fullest attention because it was fucking BEAUTIFUL! It still is, so if anyone's down for a reissue, I'm down to dramatically overhaul the visuals! Fave Trax: "Pilvenpiirtäjä" and "Sä Et Tuu".

"Spectrum" #1 1998 & "Even When It Makes No Sense" Broken Flag Pamphlet 1985

EYE NOISE! Broken Flag's short anthology of manifestos looks like it was cloned on a photocopier from the early 1970s. The hieroglyphs that haven't completely eroded away will show you singular paragraphs on wokeness, Paul Lemos' dissatisfaction with a stagnating cassette culture (W-O-W, even back then!), and a semi-thesis inspired by the misadventures of Syd Barrett. None of it seems too pretentious, with the overall vibe of the contributors coming off as more restless than self-righteous.

Spectrum was a wholly traditional music zine with a "desktop publishing" layout (it's as '90s as the interviewees, e s p e c i a l l y  t h e  f o r m a t t i n g  e r r o r s). Knowledgable reviews and lengthy dialogs with Malignant Records, Megaptera, MZ.412, The Protagonist, Sanctum, and Hazard. Again, thankfully, there's no discernible elitism from the editor or his subjects (this scene has always been rife with "people" who think they're genetically superior for liking glorified horror movie soundtracks), with good ol' fashioned enthusiasm taking precedent over being an egotistical bore.

Fight illiteracy and record-nazis...

"99 Short Songs Vol.1+2" '77-'87 & "100% Euro-Punk" '77-'80

Sometime in the late 90s, L.A.'s immortal Thrashead got his shithooks on a studio grade outboard mastering machine (a pre-internet CDR burner the size of an Eastern Bloc VCR) and fiendishly took to proto-ripping prolific chunks of his KBD collection (not the bootleg series!!!), mailing off the resulting burns as surprise gifts for the homies. These discs are a mere fraction of those efforts: 243 tracks of eBaycore, 198 of them dedicated to how quickly one can puke out their angst (9 to 59 seconds). There's no way in collector-hell I'm typing up all the bands, so scope out the scans for yourself...and you'll be blowing a hole out your shorts from catastrophically crapping them so hard......

  
 

Confuse - FLAC For "Indignation" (10 Track Version) '84, Live 2-24-85 / 12-28-84 / "Doushisha" '85 / 11-23-86

Noisecore's Mitochondrial Eve! Confuse actually shares a conjoined buttcheek with Swankys on the Disorder-thrash throne, but had greater longevity in the style by keeping it grinding psychosis up until their breakup in 1989 (Swankys abruptly switched to garage rock halfway through their own career). Most of the various live shows I acquired from Japanese traders in the late 90s, mainly Hironobu Nakao (where are ya mate?), while The FLAC of Indignation's alternate version went like this: "Passy" > pathological liar > me > Damaging Noise. I'd tape traded, CDR traded, boot-taped, re-eq'd as a fake lathe (to troll), and uploaded this stuff a quadrillion times before, and it's been exponentially fractalized ever since, so none of it should be "rare" anymore..."but just in case" 😘 ...
