Curt McGirt Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Man, I'm not surprised he lost his voice. That album is him going ALL OUT. It felt like his vocal chords were gonna snap off, escape his mouth, and run away at any moment. In protest. I've had friends that saw the show recently say that he sounded pretty good, so good luck to those going. I see he's doing both Danzig and Samhain at Phil Anselmo's music errr horror film festival (seriously, the poster had NO movies listed beyond a Texas Chainsaw cast reunion and just a shitload of bands).

Curt McGirt Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 https://2fast2die.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/HHF.jpg Here's the poster. Seriously now, you call it a film festival and it's just "PLUS TONS OF 35MM FILMS!" He may have... negligible mental capacities, but you can't say the man has bad taste (besides the bands he's in). Getting Hobbs' Angel of Death to come from Australia and maybe even more surprising getting Macabre to fly down from Chicago is inspired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fucking love Samhain and who knows when or if he'll do a show again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvo9ZCfA7_U&ab_channel=NoGleamingLight If you are into the barbaric war metal stuff that is way more grind than anything, this will blow you away. I like it even better knowing that the "band's" country and identities are not even known. For all we know it's a side project of some way big band and they're doing an excellent job at hiding it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 The music was whatever, but fun video. Dug all the mugshots. At first I thought it was just people that killed somebody but then they started throwing in James Brown and George Clinton and it switched up. After I saw Hak it was like "okay, I get it now". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazorbladeKiss87 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Worked by myself today and needed something to help power through so I put on the new Infant Island. It comes more from the hardcore/screamo world but it's got some black metal influence on it. Good stuff I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted January 25 Author Share Posted January 25 Here's some stuff I just got in the mail Solipnosis - Sintesis Silenciosa https://solipnosis.bandcamp.com/album/s-ntesis-silenciosa Completely insane stuff from Chile, which has had some sick bands ever since Pentagram (clearly, not the Maryland one) first reared their ugly heads in the '80s. This probably trumps all of them though. There's a certain panic and frenzy in the songs, this building storm of riffs and beats seemingly at war with each other, that is contrasted by these weird parts that remind me of Voivod at their quietest and spaciest. Brief acoustic interludes, too, break up the madness. One of the best albums of last year. Have fun trying to find it (NWN! Productions has the tape). Master's Hammer - The Mass demo https://mastershammer.bandcamp.com/track/the-mass Master's Hammer are a legendary first-wave black metal band from Poland who sound pretty much like nobody else. Their early '90s albums Ritual and The Jilemnist/Filemnist Occultist are reknowned for their Mercyful Fate-meets-Bathory-in-an-ancient-temple vibe, the march of their timpani thumping you to Hell's door. They also made a handful of full-length demos and this is the best one. Totally studio quality production; a bunch of tracks ended up on Ritual but not all, and it's nigh impossible to find that one on wax anymore anyway. You can snag these from Ajna Offensive, Hell's Headbangers, or again, NWN! domestically. Riot - Born In America https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIGDBSRIslA ("Wings of Fire" from the album, it's all chopped up on Youtube) Love it. Sandwiched in between the ever-so-slightly lighter twinge of Restless Breed and the full-on speed/power metal of Thundersteel, this one got lost. Most people on Metallum don't give it a decent review -- at all. But it's such a good goddamn record. For my money, Rhett Forrester was their best singer and he's as solid as on Restless. The songs are riddled with beautiful guitar harmonies, tasteful licks, powerful choruses. It bends towards the cheesy a little at the end but I can forgive that. Loudness - Disillusion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vy-JfBMLt9w I'm not sure whether I got the Japanese or English version of this (it's the Japanese cover, anyway) so a bit like rolling the dice (I favor the Japanese btw), but for $20 I couldn't beat it. Rush got these guys playing but they ran straight towards the burgeoning metal scene. Killer, KILLER vocals, guitars, songwriting. Shredding for miles too if you want it. Physique - Again https://physique.bandcamp.com/album/again A punk record, but this is heavier than any of the other records on the list. Basically they sound just like Framtid from Japan only with neat twists on tempo and changes. The sound is a pretty popular sound among the D-beat raw punk subgenre's denizens -- twenty distortion and fuzz boxes chained together, smoking and screaming with feedback and chainsaw noises -- but they layer it for effect and the punch they get is powerful. At the end they go back to the very blueprint of this sound for a long, endlessly repetitive song in the vein of Discharge's "Why" and Disclose's "Wardead" for 7-8 minutes of bludgeoning and screaming leads that drags you right into the warzone.
