the occasional thread for mean, nasty, ugly, evil metal that doesn't smell good and that takes itself way too seriously

Fucking LOVE Undergang. Got them and Vorum at the same time, it was a great day for pulverizing my brain.

this video is insane. who even knew that Barbara even had a video for this song? love that album a ton. NSFW. just so you know.

I getta get into Ruins of Beverast some more.

I've been digging Nocturnal Blood's super-vile black/death chaos (just consider this one 26 minute piece):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQDxan3haFc

Can't believe that dude's from Fontana!

...and Temple Nightside's druggy cave metal, which gets very floaty and psychedelic. I mean, you're floating in a SEA OF BLACK BLOOD, but still.

love this picture of Mystifier back in the day

OK I just listened the shit out of this

I love that special viciousness thrashy/speedy metal bands got after Reign in Blood and Seven Churches came out. Also they're from Jersey.

i used to have their first album many moons ago. Kill Or Be Killed. a minor classic to be sure.

I'll have to dig that up tomorrow. Was also digging Sacrilege B.C. earlier. I think the anti-thrash stuff on the extreme metal thread have given me a reaction formation.

ha that's awesome! I can hear some Dark Angel too -- vocalist is repelling me a bit tho, but he is unique.

I kinda dig the vocalist, but I can go for that caveman-via-Halford thing.

In other news I finally got my copy of Ruins of Beverast's Foulest Semen of a Sheltered Elite. Fucking crazy stuff. Dude had me when he kicked in with what sounds like a two-bass solo in the first song.

I feel like Inhume fit this category

Avulsed - Goresplattered Suicide too, though they dont' take themselves v seriously

Both those Blessed Death albums got remastered reissues via the Metal Mind label back in 2007 or so. I got copies sent to me at Metal Edge, along with a million other early Roadracer/Roadrunner titles nobody remembers or cares about anymore. So much great stuff.

this album. man. listening to this whole album really loud on big speakers makes swans sound like the pizzicato five. so intense. and it just keeps getting crazier. listening on a computer doesn't count. so fucked up.

is that punk maybe? i can't always tell the difference

They were a hardcore band, that's their "metal" album. Those quotes aren't because it isn't metal but because it's on some other fucked up crazy plane. Just as insane as when they were doing 2 minute songs like "I Killed My Family," though.

Fuckin PHILLY alright

i mean if you're gonna abuse drugs make an album like THAT.

I nominate Shub-Niggurath "Kinglike Celebration"

That works!

I'm feeling this lately

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ693Drg0YU

I guess it's "war metal" but the drummer plays like he's a jazz drummer who's been conscripted. All these weird little flams and one-handed rolls.

I need someone to acknowledge how good and weird the Norwegian Svartsyn is:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiHFpI-82js

Cold, weird black/doom with horror movie synths.

And the reissue of this Sargatanas album is fucking great. Mexican death metal.

http://oldtemple.bandcamp.com/album/sargatanas-the-enlightenment

Released in the late 90s but these guys had been around since '86 and have that ur-metal quality, like some riffs are thrashy, some are doomy, some are brutal, but it's all fucking fun as shit.

^kinda reminds me of Mexican Obituary at times

Nothin wrong with that!

that svartsyn track is indeed nice.

Yay!

epidemic - decameron.

wow this rules

Yeah! Those dudes were crazy. I still gotta track down a copy of their first album.

Oh my fucking god, Nuclear Death, slow down why dontcha

I love that their second demo is like 9 minutes long, 4 tracks.

I'm listening to their full lengths for the first time, Carrion for Worm is even more nuts than the first one

This rules

but I have nooo idea what the hell's going on

I actually used to correspond and tape trade with Phil, the guitarist, and he told me he was tone deaf. I think that kind of helps explain them. That and being from the whitest suburb of Phoenix, AZ.

need to buy this record. my kinda old school homage coming from a new band.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPaG6jWj-_c

yes!

listening to that right now! it's so good. between this and the new Mammoth Grinder, Relapse is off to a good start in 2018.

Goddamn I am a sucker for that kind of death metal.

I wrote a grindcore song about building a bookcase.

Tome Coffin

Determine your dimensions!
Measure your frame!
Cut your wood to leeeeeeeeength!
Mark the sides!
Cut the joints!
Chorus:
Assemble the unit!
Assemble the unit!
Assemble the unit!
Finish the face!
Wipe off the DUST!
Paint! Or stain! Or DIEEEEEE!

it's a jam

Spare parts scattered everywhere!

it's a freestanding bookcase
you wouldn't understand

not a big slam dude but i dig this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNXt44gXTXQ

Yeah that's cool. Just the right amount of ridiculousness!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2QNQ8SmBEs

endurance test of the year! play it loud on big speakers and you die.

Looks like you broke YouTube already. What was it?
