For the last few years, the Russian underground has increased with many interesting bands. And this Friday I want to talk about one young but promising squad from St. Petersburg – Recovery. This is a 3 piece band and this tape is their debut. Must say guys managed to surprise me with the sound quality and material. But let`s start in order. The design of this release is unusual. The cassette case is smaller than the standard one, it`s has a clear color. All arts are stickered on it, so it looks very cool and unboring. Inside I found all … Continue reading Recovery – Wrong Diagnosis Late Diagnosis

Italy is not a world grindcore capital, but it has some good bands. There is a small town called Viareggio where is living one interesting man. Michele is his name, and this guy is very active and pretty talented. That is him who created Yakisoba, Carbonized Innocents is his work too, Sociopathic Behavior – yep, and the list of his projects is huge. But for today’s write up I want to concentrate on his latest band Necrotized Mass. “Red Death” is an ode to old bands like Repulsion, early Napalm Death, Deceased, and Impetigo. If you love such moldy tunes, … Continue reading Necrotized Mass – Red Death

Okay boys and girls this is something new for me and I believe for you too. This is not a young band, the first demo was released almost 15 years ago. Unfortunately, there is not much info about this band, but 7Ft Beyond Belief ‎is a real unknown treasure, haha! This material is freaking hot! Yes, maybe this CD has not the best design, everything here looks very simple and primitive. BUT visual part is not always important, believe me, the music in this CD is worth listening to. Netherland, the land that brings us a lot of good death … Continue reading 7Ft Beyond Belief ‎– Beyond the Buried Eyes

To my shame, if you ask me about Turkish grind bands I will only name Sakatat and Subjugation. The name Rektal Tuşe was unknown to me until now. Usually, bands with the names like “anal” or “rectal” are playing shitty lo-fi pornogrind (or other garbage) but this squad chose another way. We have here a solid portion of grindcore with punk and death metal attitude. The material is honestly good and unboring, this CD also has a really nice design (I think the artist used a more classical grind approach here). Let`s switch to the music part. From the very … Continue reading Rektal Tuşe – Aklen Muaf

I want to dedicate this review to the memory of Miroslav Ubias. Czech legends Pigsty were silent for many years, actually, I thought that this band was done but I was wrong. Pig Blood is a 4th full length and very unusual work. For more than 2 decades guys played crashing grind, but with this work, they make a step from that direction. But let`s go in order. I can call this album conceptual, the whole LP dedicated and soaked with an unholy theme. The artwork looks fantastic, I feel the satanic atmosphere of that angry pig, haha!  As for … Continue reading Pigsty – Pig Blood

Our small underground is always growing up with more and more bands, it`s really hard to stay on track. No wonder that I know nothing about “The Bastard Within”. So… this is a young band from Varese (Italy) and this CD is their debut work. Guys are playing a mix of thrash, death metal, and grindcore, nothing new? Maybe, but let`s dig deeper. Strange thing, this artwork reminds me of the arts for grind/death albums from the early, mid 00th. Remains of the corpse, death, and dystopian theme. Nothing new, however, everything looks well organized, and honestly, this design perfectly … Continue reading The Bastard Within – Better Dead Than Friends

It`s been a while since the last review was posted, time get back to work, haha! For today’s write up I choose a debut work of Helvetes Jävla Skit. This is one-man band from Sweden with strong influence from modern extreme bands. Also, this is a debut release for Grind to Death Records, and must admit it`s not a bad start! But let`s go back to our stuff. This album has a pretty cool design, all these dead flies look calm and peaceful. And of course, this concept looks stylish. From the very first view, I thought that this work … Continue reading Helvetes Jävla Skit – Satans Jävla Helvete

Here we go again! New stuff from the Japanese freaks! I don’t know how, but for the only one year of existence this project managed to release an album, ep, and few splits (crazy, isn’t it?) and, of course, now Pharmacist has a solid fan base. The cover of this work is freaking disgusting, rotten remains with maggots and melted parts, this shit will make normies puke, haha! But on the other hand, this work must have a classical gore look! It`s not a secret that people behind this band are big fans of Carcass. All material has a big … Continue reading Pharmacist – Medical Renditions Of Grinding Decomposition
