Emergency Pizza Party - ughuuhghhhh

Emergency Pizza Party are a Nerdcore supergroup, featuring the talents of MC Wreckshin, Sir Up, Betty Rebel, Fanatical, Funky 49 and Benjamin Bear. They cover a variety of topics in their nerdy rhyme-spitting, and there are plenty of funny moments and awesome beats. I also thoroughly recommend their second album Zombie Emergency Defence, which is a concept album set after a zombie apocalypse. You can buy it on their Myspace page.

Thy Apokalypse - Fragment Premier (Vison Of Apokalypse)

Something a bit odd this time, at least to me. Thy Apokalypse seem to be an industrial black metal band, which althout it seems an obvious combination isn't something I've heard before! It's kinda hard to know what to make of this. There are some great industrial beats and ambience, and plenty of black metal screaching and blast beats. Give it a listen!

Funeral Hag - Demo 2009

A bit of a special release for you today, at least for me anyway, it's the demo from my band, Funeral Hag! We play a mix of stoner rock, sludgecore and doom metal that I hope you're going to love. The demo has 3 tracks and clocks in at 18 minutes and 18 seconds long.

Funeral Hag started last year as a solo project of our guitarist Jon, who wrote and recorded Nellie Longarms by himself and demoed another song, Screams Of A Banshee, in 2008. In early 2009 Jon decided he wanted to take the band further and started looking for other members. He quickly recruited his workmate Nev of Sabazius (possibly familiar to any regular readers as I post their releases on here) to play 2nd guitar. Nev in turn suggested his bandmate Steve to play bass, and Steve got me involved on vocals, along with our old mate George on drums. Thus Funeral Hag was born.

We've now played a few gigs (videos from our first on our Youtube page) and recorded this demo, and are hoping to make something of ourselves! So download our demo and enjoy the sludge. :D

D-Trash Records - 2009 New Releases In A Continuous Mix

D-Trash Records are a Canadian industrial digital hardcore label that I've been following for a while. They release a variety of music from straight up industrial through breakbeat and drum & bass to full on noise, so very much in the spirit of Digital Hardcore Recordings, Alec Empire's record label that released all the Atari Teenage Riot stuff. This release is one of many new-release mixes that D-Trash has put out over the years, a continuous mix of a selection of songs from the year's new releases. There's a lot of noise and plenty of driving beats, but definitely not one of the musically closed-minded! The mix features the following tracks:

01 00:00 PHALLUS ÜBER ALLES - Heatwave (Motown Mix)
02 03:25 FEUH! - SarKophage
03 08:53 THE FIRST SEED - Break Them
04 11:18 NOT HALF - MP1983
05 14:02 TUAREG GEEKS - El Galaxias
06 19:12 MIND DISRUPTION - Totes Fleisch
07 21:58 DISTONN - Vegan
08 24:45 UNITUS - KOTAcxlv
09 29:18 PHALLUS ÜBER ALLES - Heatvent
10 31:05 THE FIRST SEED - Riot Manifest
11 34:15 MIND DISRUPTION - The Void
12 37:31 TUAREG GEEKS - Maquinos Del Futoro
13 41:20 DISBREAKZ - Dispunk Breakz
14 45:04 NOT HALF - Mr Chinaski
15 51:30 FEUH! - Dunk'N'Prunk
16 56:07 UNITUS - KOTAccxl

Tribute To Bolt Thrower

This is a free release from the French netlabel Metal Factory Records. Not heard of any of the bands before but given it a listen and they do quite well at covering many Bolt Thrower classics, though obviously not quite as good a job as Bolt Thrower themselves!

The Hard Way - 2009 Demo

The Hard Way is a hardcore band from Brighton, England, formed in 2009. Beyond this I can't really say much as there ain't much info about them on Last.FM or Myspazz. Not normally that into my Hardcore, but these guys are pretty thrashy as hardcore goes. They rather remind me of SSS in fact! They've kindly posted their demo online for free, so check them out. If you like 'em, go see 'em at Greenhouse Effect in Brighton. I will certainly do my best to be there.
