Lazy Dogs 'S/T' CD, 2011
Lazy Dogs - S/T CD
This CD showed up in my mailbox along with my Blasting Concept EP, Calvin mailed me (thanks, guy). I dont know much about Lazy Dogs, besides the fact that Wes from AT is playing for them. That, and they shred balls.
Blasting Concept - 7"
Blasting Concept have outdone themselves on this new 7" they released. I accidentally leaked a link a few months back, because it's that good and i was that excited. The opening track Hammerbag, is absolutely righteous. Turn that shit up LOUD. It'll start your morning (or afternoon, depending on when you wake up from your hangover/drug sleep) out perfectly. Toilet's Clogged is the most rockin' track on the EP, and really brings it home with Calvin's incessant riffage and whoever the hell the drummer is, just mashin' away on his heads with no mercy. The ending bridge in Toilet's Clogged, will most likely make you want to get smashed and eat pizza while you play too much pinball, and reek of BO. El Camino- do i really need to say anything? Fuck your van, get an El Camino holmes. The closing track (and my personal favorite) Scant Chance, is just straight mind-fucking. I don't really comprehend how Calvin and the boys write such amazing anthems that sound straight out of '78, but are from like 6 months ago. Motherfucker, this song is comparable to The Holy Church of Annihilation's Power of One track; basically, putting their entire sound and every element that makes Blasting Concept, Blasting Concept- into a single track. Scant Chance is 4:12 in length, but you'll most likely listen to it around 4:20 in the afternoon when you're sitting down to take a bong toke. The riffs alone in Scant chance are plain destructable, and would take out thee entire country of Vietnam if Eisenhower would have possessed this 7", that Fred Hammer of AT recorded. This album is the epitome of fucking straight up stoner/skate rock/thrash- Fu Manchu, Molly Hatchet, RKL, Annihilation Time, and Captain Beyond in the form of four washed up assholes out of Santa Barbara, California. To wrap things up in a single sentence about this EP- I've had it for about 5 months now, and I've listened to it over 100 times.. no joke. I'll post a link for download, as soon as you order an EP from them yourself- seriously, it's that fucking good man, I kid you not. I'll keep you posted on upcoming shows, wherever they play- because you do not want to miss it. Check out this Year of the Rat from a house party..
Porno Beach - Shit Demo CD
I was in Australia for a month.. sorry for not updating. Hopefully that gave you time to reconsider the post below, and you decided to ruin your life entirely. Anyway, while on my travels, I was stuck with some health food fanatics, lost 20lbs (was asked by a close friend if I was on a 7 day crack binge), hadn't smoked real weed in over a week, and obviously- felt like total shit. I was passed out in the car, listening to No Justice, and sat up to either drink some water or roll the windows up to keep the rain out.. can't really remember. BUT, what I doremember, was seeing a tall big dude in his early 20s wearing a fucking NAILS shirt. Holy shit was I stoked. NO ONE in Australia on the 15 Hours of East Coast I had covered, seemed to dig anything hard.. at all. I was so stoked, to the point where I made myself get outta the car, and literally blurted out"DUDE! FUCKING NAILS!". The dude's name was James, and was there with his friends Casey & Zac. They were going out for a surf.. but we went back and forth about good music for at least a half hour.. (I ramble when Im stoked). Zac told me he was in a band, and in his exact words "Yeah, we suck and cant really play our instruments.." my instant reaction, was pure joy.. something finally that was truly shitty. Im sick of hearing super talented musicians attempt to make shit music. It still sounds good.. its second nature. Their band's called Porno Beach, and theyre fucking rad. I dont think they suck, I think they rule.. total shitty awesomeness.
Non-Phixion & Necro LPs
I don't give a fuck if you listen to crust, grind, death, all fifteen-million versions of metal there are now, hardcore, punk, or thrash; If you're upset that I'm posting this & aren't already listening to this disgusting Gore rap, you should seriously check yourself. Anyone spitting about Slayer's '86 Reign in Blood release, and not to mention- covering/remixing their own version of Reign in Blood, is straight hard.. easily some of the hardest shit I've ever heard, a little too much* to handle at times..
I compressed all the below albums into a single download for anyone willing to ruin their life to this shit (that's you Kevin Burke and Sam Hell).

*I'm being serious, this totally bums out about 90% of people I attempt to turn them onto. So I apologize if you're offended, the covers & album/song titles should give you an idea of what you're getting yourself into (if you decide to) and they more than speak for themselves- not to mention the lyrical content.. don't get me started.

Sonic's Rendezvous - Sweet Nothing CD
10 songs of pure fucking awesome.
Sonic's Rendezvous Band 'Sweet Nothing' CD, 1998.
Sonic's Rendezvous - City Slang CD
Sonic's Rendezvous Band was started by Fred Smith of the MC5 back in 1975, featuring members of The Stooges, Up, and The Rationals. They only had enough money to press a 7" during their time, which resulted in numerous live recordings. In '99, when Alive/Total Energy Records released a studio recording of the then-unheard song "Electrophonic Tonic", the song that was to have been the B-side of "City Slang"- A LOT of interest was sparked; Motivating Mack Aborn Rhythmic Arts to release this album. This CD was released in 2000 and contains both the 79' & '99 recorded versions of City Slang, as well as eleven other tracks of epic live material. I'll be posting the "Sweet Nothing" single (which contains a 9:42 live version of City Slang) they released in a couple days, stay tuned..

Death - For the Whole World to See LP
Death (not the metal band) was a three piece rock n roll/punk rock band from Detroit in 1975. When my roommate showed me this album, the first track instantly reminded me of Fred Sonic's Rendezvous Band, and heavy elements of the MC5. The other tracks on this album are just as good and all set a different pace. A few progressions remind me of Captain Beyond and Sir Lord Baltimore, and its absolutely righteous. Basically, you need this record. All three were brothers- literally and figuratively.. you do the math. Also- It's rumored that Bad Brains got their hands on Deaths one and only single, and based their entire catalog off of it.. I believe it.
Death 'For the Whole World to See' 1976, LP
Fucked Up - Couple Tracks 7"
Even tough they put out far too many pressings & colors, just to keep the vinyl race alive and to keep nerdy hardcore kids strapped with bank/paypal accounts, thriving off 15 different versions of the same record; Fucked Up is still hard.. it's undeniable.
Fucked Up 'Couple Tracks' EP, 2009.
NOFX & The Spits - Split 7"
Fat Mike is one of the most punk rock dudes to ever live; This split he put out with The Spits on Fat Wreckchords, proves it.

The Rites - S/T 12"
If you ever need to get motivated to lift a car above your head, rip a stop sign out of the ground, destroy your entire house, kill someone, rape and pillage an entire village, or just feel like pacing around your house with no clue what to do (all without doing PCP)... then download this record. The Rites may just be thee most pissed off hardcore punk band to ever exist..
The Rites 'S/T' LP, 2002.
Metallica - No Life 'Till Leather DEMO
Pre-Burton, Ron McGovney was on bass for this recording (Even though Cliff was credited, he did not perform any of these tracks). The song 'The Mechanix' is actually 'The Four Horsemen', but with different lyrics... Still epic, but it really makes me realize why I appreciate Cliff so much.

Sleep Walk - S/T Cassette
Derek Sinock (ex-guitarist of Gross Negligence, pictured left in the blog header..), recently hit me up via email to tell me about some current projects he's playing in; "I've got a new hardcore band im playing guitar in called Sleep Walk and I'm in a surf band called Los SeaFinks, which has everyone from GN except the vocalist." Well, Here's the first recordings of Sleep Walk, in cassette form.
