Bring Out Your Dead – Just Stay Asleep... — Detonate, 2010

Bring Out Your Dead features members of Scraps and Heart Attacks for anyone else out there that gives a hoot. I liked Scraps and Heart Attacks so I was excited hear this EP. What we have here is a metal band that plays fast and has some nice melodic picking parts and some decent early 2000's type mosh to it. ust Stay Asleep... could have came out on Ferret and Trustkill at the beginning of the millennium and no one would have a battened an eye. It's metalcore play fast and tuneful and thankfully doesn't have any of the downfalls of today's modern metalcore scene. There's no bad haircuts, no "deathcore", nothing...Just decently played hardcore with a good sense of head banging. I think I'm going to burn this to my computer and keep it around.

The Equinox
Tzadik (2025)

Painkiller sees three absolute masters of extreme music join forces. John Zorn of Naked City and a billion other projects, Mick Harris who transcended from Napalm Death drummer to illbient guru with Scorn, and producer extraordinaire Bill Laswell. Their first two records, Guts of a Virgin and Buried Secrets are strange meditations traversing between free-jazz, grindcore and dub. Still hungry … Read more

Dauber

Falling Down
Recess (2025)

The lazy approach would be to call Dauber "ex-Screaming Females," but that barely scratches the surface. If I had to pick one band to namedrop a comparison to, it would be labelmates Night Court. They play a familiar style but with a lot of quirks that set it apart from the genre standard-bearers. It's driving and energetic -- more importantly, … Read more
