These never went up last year I guess… Magic Circle Scream Evil People from the usual Boston bands come together to do this two song single of Late seventies and early eighties inspired Black Sabbath style metal. This reminds me a lot of the excellent Dio era record The Mob Rules. I have heard there is an LP out now? Manpig The Grand Negative Deep Six Records I love being proven wrong in hardcore, and the fact that this long rumoured record finally has happened is a great example of this. Manpig has been a legendarily rumoured band as long…

Nomos Demo Great 82 style hardcore from this New York band. There are a lot of modern influences on this band’s demo including Cold Sweat, The Snobs, and other, hey, early 00 bands. I would like to hear more. Our Side Demo Really raw, late eighties, influenced hardcore in the vein of Release, Youth Of Today, and Four Walls Falling. With a better recording, I sense this band could be pretty good. I want to hear more. Pigsticker Demo I really like this demo. Pigsticker reminds me a cross between Circle Jerks and Necros with sloppy, raw, production values that sounds pretty authentic to the early eighties…

Crossed Out, Deep Six Records, Infest, Napalm Death, Negative Approach, Raw Deal, Raw Power, Ripcord, Septic Death, Siege, Void
Siege Drop Dead Reissue Deep Six Records This is a reissue of this highly influental band’s recorded output. Siege played brutal hardcore that, at the time, had only been seen in bands like Void and Negative Approach. The bands influenced by Siege could go on forever: Infest, Napalm Death, Ripcord, Septic Death, Crossed Out, and so on. The reissue combines their demo (perhaps the best ever? Maybe. Raw Power & Raw Deal may have something to say about that.), their contributions to the Cleanse The Bacteria compilation plus two unreleased songs that I have heard live versions of before but…

Deep Six Records, Infest, Lack Of Interest, No Comment, Spazz
Lack Of Interest Take Another Step LP Deep Six Records Ever since first hearing these guys on their split with Spazz sometime in the mid 90’s, I have been pretty indifferent towards Lack Of Interest. Their influences are clear: Infest, No Comment, Spazz, and other bands of that nature. Despite this, nothing about this record really grabs me. There are a few ragers, but otherwise it is too long and pretty flat sounding. This would have worked a lot better as an ep with about half the amount of songs.
