So What You Think About Hansa Rostok? Hansa Rostok? Like A Pussies! Heavy Metal Pussies!

When are they going to come up with christ-raping indie pop or barbaric twee?

Is this what they call shoegazing black metal? What's shoegazing black metal anyway? Do metalheads gaze at their shoe when they listen to metal? Who the fuck come up with shoegazing black metal? Fuck it!

This is a good album. No joke. Shoegaze/post-rock music from a dude who played in one of those ugly black metal band that your god-fearing parents/teachers/politicians warn you about. Who would have thought a dude like that can come out with a beautiful album like this? And you know what? It is irony free. You don't get things like that when indie hipters come up with something like this. Indie hipsters doing metal is blasphemous. Smart metalheads doing indie rock is good.

Jerry's Kids is the real deal. I am not having any of that nu-retro shit that everyone seems to be into these days. That shit is weak. Go here and download their live set from 1983. Check out the rest of that blog as well because that blog rule.

BM Boner

File this under music-that-will-never-impressed-that-girl-that-you-think-off-when-you-are-spanking-your-monkey. Mentioning Bone Awl in any conversation will not get you laid. Period. If you want some action, do talk about all those “IT” indie bands that you can read in Junk or any one of those bands that are on constant rotation on MTV and you might get lucky with that underage girl or boy.

If you are one of those ultra underground BM dudes you probably noticed how Bone Awl have make a name for themselves in the last couple of years. Read that again. U-L-T-R-A U-N-D-E-R-G-R-O-U-N-D B-L-A-C-K M-E-T-A-L. We’re not talking about some pansy wimpy BM that you can find in some glossy magazine (you know the one with the extra cheesy keyboard on top of that sweet melodies and confused "singing"). If your favorite “BM” band is Cradle of Filth, chances are you have no idea about Bone Awl and are secretly listening to Fall Out Boy and love that movie Titanic.

Don’t ask me why they are like the “IT” band in the ultra underground BM circles. I have no idea and could care less about any of that. As far as I am concern, Bone Awl shits on most BM with it simplistic and primitive take on genre. This shit is so primitive that you will have to redefine everything you ever know about BM. Bone Awl makes bands like Emperor and Dimmu Burger sounds like Dream Theatre. Since most of the band’s outputs are OOP (most of them are limited and small in numbers, you know it is not “kvlt” if more than 10 copies are made available), I think it is cool to point you to some blogs that have links to some of the band’s music. Go here and download some of the early stuff that is only available on cassette and vinyl. The band had also recently released their debut full length that you can buy here or download here.

No New Post?

Time is short...

I am pretty shocked with the passing of Chris Benoit. RIP man. Have fun with Eddie down there in hell. You're too good for heaven. RIP to that dude in DISCLOSE as well. A lot of people will be missing you.

Well not everything is looking grim.

Cactus Was invited me to be part of his zine projects. I am definitely looking forward for that. More about this some other time. Oh yeah, just in case you don't know yet, Darkthrone will release a new album out later this year. What! you're too scared to listen to some "black metal"? Well there is always them Fall Out Boy you can enjoy yourself to. Go here and listen to some sample from the upcoming Darkthrone album. Yes it is not Transilvanian Hunger but it is not such a big surprise right?

My friend xArwithx is in Europe right now getting laid with lots of European girls. Have fun you bastard! And thanks for that Second Combat CD.

That's all for now.

Enjoy this...
