Napoli Violenta – Neapolitan Power Violence (Time To Kill Records)

Although not a huge fan of themed and ‘gimmick’ music projects they do occasionally hit the right target and I had a big grin on my face the second Napoli Violenta hijacked my inbox. Much the same way as labelmates… Continue Reading →

Kevlar Bikini – OPT-OUTism (Geenger Records)

Although slightly late to this bikini party (story of my life), I really enjoyed this Croatian trio’s 3rd album Rants, Riffage And Rousing Rhythms released via Geenger Records back in 2018. Although not the sort of style that I would… Continue Reading →

Butcher In The Fog – A Screaming Reflection (Sleight Of Hand Music)

London trio Butcher In The Fog are a many headed beast. Taking elements of hardcore punk and throwing in helpings of head banging thrash with a touch of old fashioned doom metal, there’s something in there for everyone. I caught… Continue Reading →

Bastard Feast – Osculum Infame (Season Of Mist)

Deez Nuts – Bout It (Century Media)

It’s to Australia and a bit of New York that we look for a bit of culture. Well, not really as Deez Nuts treat us to their 16 little ditties. The delicacies include “Unfuckwithable”, “What We Eat Don’t Make You… Continue Reading →

Interview: Man The Machetes

The rise and rise of the Norwegian punk scene, and the media attention it has attracted of late through the furore surrounding a certain band called Kvelertak, has thrown the spotlight in the direction of many new names. One of those,… Continue Reading →

Complete Failure – The Art Gospel of Aggravated Assault (Season of Mist)

This is an American Grindcore release with a slight twist. Eclectic influences rear themselves from time to time and it’s rare, if not for bands like “JaKa (Japanische Kampfhörspiele)”, for grindcore bands to have anything different up their sleeve than… Continue Reading →
