From Soil Laced With Lyme.



"Advocate is an american band from Providence, USA, playing blazingly fast thrashy hardcore mixed with plenty of grind. Featuring members of Backstabbers Inc., the band was once reviewed in a zine written in Spanish language, it said something about pit bulls and testicles."

FAST, FAST, FAST

Prayers and Arsons.



"Prayers And Arsons pushes further into a sound which is undoubtedly the band's own. The foundation lies in metal and hardcore, but goes as far as doom and the opposite direction with a melodic pop sensitiveness not to be sniffed at. Dissonant and heavy, raw and dynamic, the layers add to each other and become more addictive and captivating. More rock than metal, and more metal than rock, but most of all tight and impressive."

I said a long time ago on this blog that Drive-By Bukkake win the best band name ever award.... Well I'd say Impure Wilhelmina is the worst band name I've ever come across (feel free to comment with worse ones cause that'd be really interesting)... With that said, they play some damn good, and somewhat original, heavy fights light music

She Loves Me She Loves Me Not.



"The roots of Seattle, WA’s Kiss It Goodbye can be traced back to dissolution of the classic lineup of the New Jersey band Deadguy. Hot on the heels of a defining full-length for Victory Records that heralded the dawning of the noisecore movement — a movement later embellished upon by bands like Dillinger Escape Plan and Botch — vocalist Tim Singer and guitarist/songwriter Keith Huckins decided to leave the incendiary outfit as Singer made plans to move to Seattle to pursue a career in graphic design. Huckins followed his friend to the Northwest and Deadguy replaced them both where in 1996, they hooked up with bassist Thom Rusnack (Ambush) and drummer Andrew Gormley (Die 116), both of whom Huckins had played with on the East Coast as part of the groundbreaking hardcore punk band Rorschach...1997’s She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not had critics heads’ spinning with its conceptual album cover art and further exploration of the musical themes laid down by Deadguy’s previous incarnation."

Kiss it Goodbye are lumped into the Botch, Coalesce, Deadguy group - mainly because they had Deadguy members - but they were more bone-chillingly haunting that those bands... worth your time

Tenpeun.



La Quiete is an awesome screamo band from Italy... this album is compilation of old splits, demos, and unreleased songs that is worth a listen

Manhater.



"Progression is described as an onward or forward movement. Robotosaurus have taken action and pushed through the barriers of heavy music to create the next extreme in sonic defilement. “Manhater”, their dark, crushing, and frantic debut album. Cramming 13 songs into just 25.5 chaotic minutes, the release is the band's most focused and mature sounding effort to date, with their skilful manipulation of brutal sounds bringing to mind the likes of Converge, Discordance Axis, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Daughters."

the debut album from Robotosaurus... heavily grind influenced chaotic music from down under

Kings of Albany.



"Taking influences from bands such as Breather Resist, Black Sabbath & Queens Of The Stone Age, Tortuga have a feast of riff-tastically heavy and chaotic doom-laden songs for even the most cynical listener to sink their teeth into."

Sometimes heavy, sometimes fast, sometimes noisy, all the time very good... weird album name considering they're from the UK... they apparently broke up last year, that sucks
