Well I have always been meaning to put some screamo up here and now is the time I suppose. The Kodan Aramada are are great band that consists of like 7 dudes about. They are a very good example of the goodness of Screamo. Complex at times and brutal at others, but one things for sure... They are awesome and make for some good tunes. I am gonna be upping some more emo/screamo stuff, seeing how I

Bastard! Wind of Pain...

2010-05-06T19:36:00.000-07:00

Japan does some awesome stuff, and Bastard is one of those things. Take your average disclone band and make it awesome... This kind of hardcore is what Tragedy wanted to be, but just could not be... FIGHT ME... Bastard is generic but far from horrible. This is the good stuff right'hur... If you like discharge, Tragedy and the whole Japanese hardcore thing, this is right up yo alley.GRIP IT UP!

Watchmaker...

2010-05-06T19:27:00.001-07:00

Watchmaker is a grind band that just brings the goodness. This is what grind is all about. Ruthless assaults and brutality. Watchmaker is good for this kind of shenanigans. These guys are from America, which is odd to me, but... Whatever. I normally think of Japan or South America when I think grind, and some Germany in there too. But Boston!? Boston is the hardcore capitol of the US.GRIP IT UP!

Trying to define what kind of music this is would be silly... It's far too frantic and across the boards. It's this one millisecond, then... Something who knows what. Is it fun? Absolutely. Brutal at parts, then soft, then something a kid with severe ADD would make if given a musical instrument. Midori is from Japan, as is most interesting or down right awesome music.

Das Plague...

2010-01-04T12:15:00.000-08:00

Whereas Hongo was the more crusty, Das Plague was more emo. This has all the makes of screamo greats. Twinkly parts leading to full on emotional waves with low pitched vox like Asedio (lol)... This is great and has some serious instrumentals leading to great goodness. Nowadays there are some more bands like this, but when they hit... They were pretty damn original. If you like this try "maladie".

Hongo... Epic neo-crust goodness...

2010-01-04T12:08:00.000-08:00

Hongo was band that was integral to the whole epic crust scene and the guys in this band were in some seriously awesome heavy hitters defining the new crust... This is a melodic form of music mixing the ideals and philosophies of Crust with the sentiment of Emo. This is harsher than some of the more screamo/crusty stuff but still has alot of the same influences. The people in this band went on to

ACxDC

2010-01-03T10:50:00.000-08:00

ACxDC will be right up your alley...GRIP IT UP GET INTO IT...DOWNLOAD

Final Count... Japanese metal.

2010-01-03T10:37:00.000-08:00

Think about a cleaner Hermit Prose, GISM, or Gai... This is a great release, and captures a lot of this type of Japanese metals. Granted it does not deviate too much from the typical but then again, why change a good thing. If you're a fan of the name dropped bands, grip this up... Get into it.DOWNLOAD

Bereaved is a technically impressive Metal act, and the drummer is tight in my opinion. Now I am not gonna say that these guys are anything but "Metal", because invariably, someone out there will be like... "These guys are not black metal, they are progressive black tech metal..." And then once again I will be reminded of how far we have fallen from loving music to "loving" music. Enjoy it? Yes?

He has a short list of credits to his name but that list happens to contain the cult-classic Basket Case trilogy and Frankenhooker. Henenlotter is a filmmaker whose work is distinctly tied to

Andre The Butcher (2005) Directed by: Philip CruzRating: 1 out of 4 Body BagsReviewed by: Jeff Deth Any film staring Ron Jeremy as a machete-wielding psycho can’t possibly be taking itself seriously. At least we hope it doesn’t. I honestly don’t know if I hated this movie of kind of liked it. The filmmakers had me with the title and the box art, there’s no question.

Socialized Hate (1988) Roadracer RecordsRating: 4 out of 4 SkullsReviewed by: Jeff Deth I fucking love this record. Atrophy is this great little unknown band from Arizona, that sadly was short-lived. They came up along with fellow Arizonians, Flotsam and Jetsam and Sacred Reich. Being from outside The LA, Bay-Area or New York scenes must have been tough on the band. But

I'm someone who analyzes every element to any release I come in contact with. Whether it's a movie or an album aside from looking at the artists involved I always kept track of who put it out. I just wanted to share some of the logos I remember that almost always assured me I was holding good product. If you recognize them you're just as crazy as me. Listen fuckers, when it comes to this shit

Forbidden Evil 1988 (Combat Records) Rating: 3 out of 4 PentagramsReviewed By: Jeff Deth Forbidden was one of the many now infamous Bay-Area thrash bands active in the mid to late 1980’s. Obviously the first of those bands to come to mind are Slayer, Metallica and Exodus. Forbidden is a band you will eventually get to once you’ve gotten through the top layer of thrash.
