Featuring Mr Rich Hoak of Brutal Truth fame on drums and main microphone, T.F.D. has gloriously showered us with sharp decibels for almost two decades. Short, fast and furious, every song is an explosion of straight forward grinding thrash with a touch of the early D.R.I. spirits, with emphasis on the grind, without ever sacrificing the catchy element. It does not sound like the dark tortures of Brutal Truth yet it is as awesome. And they are the greatest folks I have had the pleasure to meet in this scene, touring with TFD is like a vacation. The 1999 CD is a genuine item I ordered on the defunct mp3.com website which was the precursor of Bandcamp/Soundcloud and all these streaming websites we are now used to. It was all the rage in the 1990's and it was actually the first open social media website, long before Facebook and such. COMMERCIAL: I have a few copies of the split BT/TFD/Narcosis 7" for sale (of which I recorded the BT songs). Awesome surrendering of the eardrums! Eternal devastation of the triplazering grindiverse!!! Remove brackets and unzip: [total fucking zerification] !ZER Total Fucking Destruction ZER!

Neurosis - Honor Found In Decay, 2012 CD Album Limited Edition      Neurot Recordings - NR085 According to none other than myself, Neurosis has three distinct era: the hardcore of the 1st two albums and EP, the experimental anger with lots of doom and noises of the 90s, and after that the sad and melancholic waves of sweet long stuff. I will eternally be a fan of the hardcore era, from the straight forward classic punk thrash of Pain of Mind to the more Blast-like sound of Word As Law. For something completely different, the following anger/doom albums are amazing too - the high point being the evil monster Through Silver In Blood. Then I started to get bored with the sad stuff. It is musically excellent, but they can't sing and it ruins it for me. You need actual singers to perform on this kind of musical landscapes, not depressed lumberjacks who lost their axes and saws in the pond where suicidal angels come to drown. According to Church Of Zer standards, you are allowed to use a death metal growler on your sad music if he has the class of the guys in Temple Of Void or Esoteric, or else Peter Steele. But not his post-bar fight whining. Too bad because most of this stuff could match the Sonic Mass from Amebix, but it does not because the Baron sings beautifully, lui. That's why my favorite of this era is the awesome album featuring  Jarboe, who sings like an angel about to dive in thick black waters without a snorkel. This album rules! Then there was that tedious, bore fest of a show I attended a few years ago, which did nothing to revive the passion. Neurosis ruled, and they probably still do, let me know if the last album is worth a try for non-insomniacs. Remove brackets and unzip: [zer of mind] !ZER Neurosis ZER! MRR readers should read this. Glad I stopped buying that crap zine in 1987, surprised it still exists  - yeah, now on the capitalist interwebs with their own capitalist website!

Hellwitch

01. Hellwitch - Syzygial Miscreancy, 1990 CD Album      Wild Rags Records - WRE/902-2 02. Hellwitch - Final Approach, 2003 CD Compilation      Progressive Arts Music - PAM 1017 03. Hellwitch - Omnipotent Convocation, 2009 CD Album      Xtreem Music - XM 065 CD Per strong suggestion from Stijnfest616 after the Sadus post, here come the crazy noises from Hellwitch. By crazy I mean intensity of the size and quality of Ripping Corpse at the speed of Cryptic Slaughter. This is the perfect crossover of thrash and death metal with mind blowing, unique riffs and insane vocals. It took me a while to ignore the abominable artwork on the first album and actually listen to the thing (the kind of disc I would just skip at the record store), but once it was done, I was ashamed of myself. This is just too good to be bypassed. Wild Rags knew how to select their artists! Either completely worthless or totally geniuses. And that return album from 2009 is no less amazing, they are still in total command of all their weaponry. The 2003 disc is a compilation featuring the first album and various demos that go back to 1984. Triplazering thrash til the end of everything  and beyond!

From Ashes Rise

Victims, From Ashes Rise - From Ashes Rise / Victims, 2003 Vinyl LP Repress      Havoc Records - HC1211 , Compilation      Contains 17 songs by: Victims, From Ashes Rise 03. From Ashes Rise - Nightmares, 2004 Vinyl LP Album Reissue      Havoc Records - HC1219 Hardcore punk with the dbeat tag: zer. Great stuff with almost zero originality that equally draws from the template (Discharge) with increased speed and diminished menace, and from the first (and best!) Neurosis record. It actually sounds like the dudes from Neurosis perform the vocals here. There are more subtleties in the guitar department than on your regular Discharge barrage of riffs, but it is not necessarily an improvement as the melodic dimension of some of the riffs brings out the sadness of the neurosisness while I'd rather have noise and destruction. I don't know, sadness works better in the realm of doom metal as far as I am concerned. But this is very well done anyway and deserves the full attention of fans of augmented dbeat hardcore.
