I talk about nachos and eating nachos and weirdos from Dekalb.
S.C.A.B.:
Weekend Nachos (Dekalb, Illinois - NOT CHICAGO (this is
important to Tom)) New! (0:28-2:03)
Awesome
thrash from Chicago, which has the best scene in the country right
now.
Welcome
to the Spaceship, Motherfucker: Oozing Wound (Chicago) New!
(3:37-6:33)
The
new Bloody Hammers is terrible, and I discuss why. I also
talk about why super groups are usually stupid, except for
Doomriders. Anything Converge-related
can't suck anyway.
Grand
Blood: Doomriders (Boston) New!
(7:00-10:43)
Black
experimentalists from Finland, working with lo-fi, under-produced
sound.
Ruumis
Loi Itsensa Omaksi Kuvakseen: Mörkö (Finland) New!
(11:04-17:55)
In
the running for best drone. The band plays with the idea of
being plain badass, but keeps a tight rein on it. You have to check
out the album to hear what I am talking about.
Within
the Light of Fire: Wolvserpent (Boise) New!
(18:18-25:39)
I
discuss why Hemlock cannot book large shows, and
Hornsss
stealing the show a couple
of weekends ago.
The
Maker of Moons: Hornss (San Francisco)
(26:56-29:53)
Very
pretty, brings to mind melodic Neurosis.
Rain
Have Mercy: Nonsun (Ukraine) New!
(30:05-36:48)
Another
super group, this one with the lead singer of Darkthrone. There is a versatility here
that is surprising.
Skeleton
Sand: Sarke
(Norway) New!
(37:22-43:11)
And
another band with a famous musician, this one from
Candlemass. The lead singer is female,
sounds a bit like Blood Ceremony.
Boneflower:
Avatarium
(Sweden) New!
(44:16-49:34)
Italian
psychedelic cult pagan space rock.
Locrian:
Woodwall
(Italy) New!
(49:48-54:12)
Hypnos
comes out with a debut album that rivals the new Cult of
Luna. A special goodbye, for Josh's
sake.
The
Fall: Hypnos: (France) New! (54:42-END!)
