reagan youth youth anthems for the new order 12 ep

this record is a classic and i've been wanting to review this for 2 years or so. the knock on these guys was they're too punk sounding not hardcore. pothetic really. anyway 7 great songs of raw punk rock. i love the satire on this record. i guess some people didn't get it. that's just sad. great production and some of the people on this can actually play! haha. favorite tracks would be new aryans, reagan youth, degenerated, and gonowhere though the whole record rips. dave later killed himself after his mother died and his girlfriend was murdered. the rest of the band released another album called vol 2 which is not my thing. this record was reissued sort of. they took different recordings of these songs and threw in 3 new others. it's okay but you don't really need it. get the original though. this record smokes from a to z. also i'm gonna try and review more old records cause i feel i've been reviewing a lot of new stuff. i'll still do new records of course but i'm getting back to my roots bloody roots. anyway get this right fuckin now!

social overload wicked sick demo cd

everyone remember me? yeah it's been a quiet month so what? haha. anyway when i reviewed the anvil show i raved about these guys. well i finally got a coppy of the demo. and? fucking killer thrash (or speed i guess) metal from my hometown. i'm surprised i've never heard these guys before. the intro song is a killer guitar riff with some cool thrashy drums. the next song is a tad slower but still kicks ass. my favorite has to be heavy metal hammer. it was originally from the first demo and just kicks ass. not saying i don't like the other 3 tracks just when they played it i thought it was a great song. plus they were playing a gig with anvil so i was like heavy metal hammer+anvil=metal! i'm sure i was the only one to get that. the mix of this is really good except the beginning of the second song where i didn't really figure out what the singer was saying until i heard it again. other than that everything is clear and the energy is high. overall a great effert made by these young guys from southern california. not sure how you guys can get the demo but you just should. i think these guys are gonna go a long way or at least make more good music. bang your fucking head!

terrorizer hords of zombies cd

i'm back bitches! better and more profane than ever! and no one even commented. ah what's the point? *crys* but anyway i got this about a week ago uh legally of course he says laughing nervously. so what the hell do we have here? terrorizer is one of my favorite bands. i first got into them through a split demo with nausea who was the original singer's other band. terrorizer destroyed that demo. i remember listening to it at night and just thinking fuck is this cool. well anyway i really liked world downfall (thought it was a bit too clean and pollished) and hell i even liked darker days ahead. then i heard that jesse pintado, one of my heros, died. terrorizer broke up. i was shocked but thought that was a good thing to do. then when i heard they reformed with katina culture on guitar my first question was who the fuck is that? turns out she (and i have no problems with that i'm just saying) is a band mate of the singer. they have some shit crust band called resistant culture or some damn thing fuck i don't care. anyway they've reformed with the only member of morbid angel to not discrase himself, pete sandoval still on drums, david vincent also of morbid angel as if you didn't know on bass, and the two resistant culture members anthony rezhawk on vocs. so is this album any good? yes and no. it's a fun death metal grindcore album. but damnet it's just not terrorizer. rezhawk's voice is boring as usual. didn't like him on darker days ahead don't like him now. i miss oscar. the drums are typical pete mayhem and i have to say he does a really really good job on this. the bass well it's on the album? i think? and as much as i hate to say it ms. culture (wonder what her real last name is) does a pretty damn good job. i'm not comparing her to jesse because i'm sorry if you're reading this but you simply can't. but she does a pretty good job doing what she does which is play sick ass riffs. i'm glad the vocal mix is lower. anthony's lame growles are easyer to listen too without screaming shut up! same with barny greenway for me. overall if you're like a friend of mine and loved jesse then don't get this. if you want to see what they sound like now get it. if you like straightforward deathgrind god i hate that term! then get this. overall not bad just not amazing. ah well. coming soon, new napalm death and nausea's one and only lp. pretty good shit too

takin a break

i don't know when i'll be back but i'm taking a break. i cannot review heavy records at this point in my life right now. i just don't have the fire for punk or metal at this point. i'm pretty worryed about this. i've never felt this way. i shall be back soon. unless bishop gets off his ass i don't think this blog will get many reviews in the near future

deceive 2011 ep
