ZER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Eternal Zer Top 10 has many things of first necessity like Eisenvater and Die You Bastard!, and of course a very large wagon for the undisputed kings of terminal grindcore BRUTAL TRUTH!!!!!!! I just spent two days listening exclusively to BT (ah non, I also had some Massacre and Pungent Stench, sorry for the lie), so I felt like posting a bit of their discography. BT have been awesome from day one and have always remained at the top. A unique style, a mastery of dynamics, a merciless execution (watch them throw a 90 minutes performance in your general direction and pick up your jaw), and the best people I've ever had the pleasure to play shows with. There are grinding bands as fast/killer like Rotten Sound or Sayyadina, but to me BT offer just one inch more of class and head-carving variations. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

yes Side A is exactly the same recording as on the live @ Noctum Studios / For Grind Freaks Only. Side B is not.

Track list on both live in Mtl 2006 and in Qc 2009 : too lazy to make it, figure it our yourself and post it in the comments. Zer. Live Mtl 2006 is the complete show from which were taken the 2 songs on the split 7" with Narcosis and TFD, recorded by myself. Live Qc 2009 recorded by Seb, mastered here.

I have a few new / unplayed copies left of the Narcosis/TFD split 7", $5 + shipping (-> l a u r e n t [at] c h u r c h o f z e r [dot] com, remove blanks and do other things with the brackets content).
BUY ALL BRUTAL TRUTH!!!
We consume so much Japanese noise that the current tragedy there is all the more aggravated when you read unbelievable shit like that:

  3. Brutal Truth (and Total Fucking Destruction too) should be illegal. My eardrums cannot follow.

  4. Les brèves de comptoir sans le vin blanc (ou les Deschiens sans Gibolin), c'est moins marrant…
    On peut se rassurer en pensant qu'il vont sucer des pastilles d'iode à s'en étouffer.

    Bonnnux

    Ps : merci pour ce blog et pour Roger Mag (Remember 'L'homme qui Valéry Giscard d'Estaing et les poumons'zine ou à peu près ?)
    Ps2 : l'extrait d'Idiocracy me rappelle un certain 'Tournez manège'… A quand ton retour ? Et quel T-shirt mettras-tu ?

  7. The remarks are too moronic to be taken serious, the situation's not.
    I also appreciated the mathematicians of the apocalypse.

  8. L'homme qui Valéry Giscard d'Estaing et les poumons ! Zer ! Grands souvenirs en parallèle successive de Possessed By Speed, Les faux fils de thrash bourrent, Rock Fort, Poulet Basquaise, Extra Jazz, L'annuaire de l'Ardèche... D'ailleurs tu me dois un exam de maths à Sciences Po.
    Bon, pour tournez manège, j'attends la confirmation du véliplanchiste de substitution.
