Requested Gargantula: rezerred the whole artillery with a few extras like those Southern Lord killer reissues, and the Power Of Expression tribute album. It is true that the brand new Manic Ride remaster is a great improvement. Each and every release here is a universal classic of true hardcore abrasion and then the twisted thrash out in space lands on your cranium. But the excellent zerist knows that already. Forever triplazering Bl'ast!

Let's pump some fresh meat and complete the flacollection with new releases from these previously posted bands. All these things are great, no disappointment, only excitement. Yes, Psycho are back with one straight forward fast & raw thrashcore charge that excels at exhuming their 90s output. Zer! The Misery mini LP offers a Sacrilege cover (inferior to the original) and a continuation in the Amebix direction taken by the previous double LP. Violator deliver the Nuclear Assault / Tankard they are known for, nothing new here but still great. Sheja returns with a triplazer cover album (Thin Lizzy, Accept, Judas Priest...). Ringworm pursue their relentless thrash attack with a mini album that contains a Discharge cover and an album without a Discharge cover. Bestial stuff that manages to keep your neuron on its toes without any spark of originality. It takes talent to make great generic thrash. The same may be said about Ratos De Porao, but since RDP more or less invented this crossover thrash thing, you can't blame them for going on and perfecting it. RDP are in top shape, all teeth, hammers and rage in full swing, Seculo Sinistro is a deadly bulldozer of venomous hardcore and thrash metal! FUCK YEAH! Autopsy also return with a major demonstration in sleazy death metal monstrosity, this is their best album since the Macabre Eternal return. Awesome deluge of massive death elephants!! The Ghoul mini LP is maybe not as exciting as the previous one but still a highly enjoyable burst of surf thrash, while the latest Conquest For Death is full of things greater than their previous things. CFD's punk thrash is still quick and a little sharper than before, bravo. What am I forgetting? Ah yes the newest Mekong Delta. This is another pearl to add to their zero default discography. The high definition metal of Mekong Delta is a its best and one could legitimately wonder why listen to flaccid 21st century (or even 90s...) Iron Maiden when MD can fulfill the need for such things ten times over. I'm not mentioning Metallica because it is irrelevant, we are talking about real metal here. This new album is even better than the two previous ones, Mekong Delta dominate, period. And last but not least, the beast everybody was expecting, the Bl'ast! re-release! At first I had decided I did not care about it as I already own 3 versions of the Power of Expression (LP, CD, tribute), and I can resist my consuming impulses. But when you're an addict, you're an addict, and when I stumbled on this triple LP re-release at my favorite local store, I could not let it in the rack. So what about it? It's mildly disappointing. It contains 3 different recordings of the Power of Expression. LP 1 is a remaster of the album you already know, nothing particularly exciting (yes the album is a fucking classic, but do I need a 4th version?). LP 2 and 3 are previous sessions with the same songs (or less) and they sound terrible (production wise) compared to the official version. There is one unreleased song on LP 2, that's very cool. The artwork and packaging are nice too, but not as classy as the magnificent Blood release. So, in the end pretentious assholes like me need to collect this Bl'ast! stuff and Southern Lord know how to target us, but well, you could live without it if you own the originals. I swear, if Take The Manic Ride resurfaces with a new mix, I won't buy it until the day I buy it. Now, a live album would be seriously cool! Let's hope the reunion will bring us such a thing. BL'AST!
BUY ALL THESE DISCS!

Need to waste many minutes on a hangover day? It's Summer, your are entitled to this assortment of tedious crap that may dull you to complete disembodiment:

This shit is so boring, absurd and childish that you experience out of body experiences every five minutes, wandering to other spaces like the fridge and the toilet. This is new age for prepubescent Facebook teens (possibly only the female segment). Yet unlike Noah, it is not funny. Noah was a truly hilarious bucket of vomit featuring giant stone robots, non-stop whining, nonsensical dialogues & absurd situations, and potentially infinite loops of incest. Every scene in Noah is great, Sharknado level. But Transcendence has none of these qualities, it barely reaches the level of a Greenpeace commercial on your homeopath's ipad. It's as interesting as a necklace of spherical sterilized turds in an abandoned cabin and as original as the underwear of Ronald Reagan. And while Noah was the adaptation of a famous book, T. tried to hide its rip-off of the Lawnmower Man from 1992. Replicas of 3rd rate movies from the 90s are a disaster (other red flag: it features Morgan Freeman). But you save on sleeping pills, so why not.


Your tax money at work again:

Another proof that if you vote, you support war and misery.

In the Bl'ast! CDs post, the vinyl rips were asked for, so here they are. No introduction necessary, this is the legend of sonic reducing, this is the power of zerpressure, this is Bl'ast!!!! Now what about the new release Blood? In all childish innocence, I hoped for some truly unreleased material, but it is "only" a cool remix (by Dave Grohl) of "It's In My Blood" with an extra guitar track. Amazing LP artwork, amazing album, buy it anyway if you are a true fan - if not, you are a strange piece of meat. Read about it.

Lee Hollis had the Spermbirds|2Bad|Steakknife layer cake, Clifford Dinsmore has today's monumental totem of world class bunker hardcore and mental metal. I still have to discover his new band Dusted Angel. Bl'ast! was the dark, heavy beast who became an addiction to many, an impressive feat in an era dominated by speed and acceleration. Killer Bl'ast! rules the Eternal Zer Top Ten of hardcore. The nightmare continues. Now, Spaceboy could be a modernized torsion of Take The Manic Ride with more drugs: fifteen-dimensional songs with fucked-up things happening in and around the skeleton of the brain-melting progression of the death waves. Amazing gonzo triplazer! More addiction! And now Gargantula is another step in the Spaceboy direction of nowhere. This incredible assemblage of sonic flesh craft seals you on the inescapable orbit. You hit "play" again. In the parallel universe, they wear the crown of all things metal for the psych ward. Gonzamazing triplaquadrizer!
Bl'ast! vinyl rips might become available this summer if really needed. But really, because these CDs are perfect (Manic Ride sounds even better on the CD).
More Bl'ast! on Them Boners Be Poppin' (alternate versions of the first two songs from The Power Of Expression).
