    Shortcuts: 7 Recent EPs, Singles, and Splits of Note

    Ok – I’m busy. You’re busy. So let’s cut the shit and talk bad-ass tunes, specifically, some recent noteworthy non-LP releases that are more than worth investing what little precious time you have to spare. Dark Circles/Abstracter – Split LP (Halo of Flies/L’Oeil Du Tigre Records/Moment of Collapse/Sick Man Getting Sick/Shove) Damn. This one doesn’t…

  • Atriarch – An Unending Pathway

    Atriarch – An Unending Pathway

    Not too familiar with this Portland outfit, but Atriarch have been described as a head-on collision between post-sludge and new wave, which seemed intriguing enough for me to listen up.  The fact that heavy-rock luminaries Billy Anderson and Brad Boatright had a hand in mixing and mastering is also a good sign; the production really…

    More Maryland Deathfest 2014 – going full bore at MDF

    This review is quite long. But then, Maryland Deathfest was a long festival. It was full of bands I wanted to see. I also remained sober through the entire festival. This meant a few things: I saved money for the massive amount of merch that was available. I didn’t wake up each morning feeling like…

  • Cokegoat – Vessel

    Cokegoat – Vessel

    By Gruesome Greg Truth be told, I was drawn to this Chicago sextet by their bizarre moniker, along with the promise there was doom to be found on this, their debut album.  I’d say that if anything, the band’s name suggests frantic, buzz saw black metal—as opposed to a handle like Weedeater or Bongzilla, which just…

  • Noothgrush/Coffins split

    Noothgrush/Coffins split

    By Gruesome Greg Both of these bands are certainly no stranger to splits—this is Noothgrush’s 11th and the 16th(!) for Coffins.  And while they’ve shared sides with the likes of Sourvein, Hooded Menace and Corrupted before, this could very well be their most crushing collab yet. Noothgrush starts us off with three tracks, beginning with “Humandemic,” a…

  • Coffins – The Fleshland

    Hellbound Metal: ” While this probably takes a back seat to their countrymen in Church of Misery for me, just the fact that this Japanese death-doom squad has a new album out is saying something in itself—it’s been a full five years since their last full-length, albeit not for a lack of splits in the…
