(review) Serrucho – ‘Quien es el Zombie Aqui’

Leave a comment

SERRUCHO are hailing from Huelva, Spain and this is the new opus containing five songs, one being cover by Coronados. The music of Serrucho is not easy to describe, it is a mixture of hardcore punk, powerviolence, grindcore with some metal influences in the song structures here and there. Vocals are screaming and occasionally growling, fitting perfectly in the songs, with lyrics in Spanish language. What I love the most is continuation of some epic melodies throughout the songs, beneath all the brutality there is also lots of epic guitar work and hooks, thus making this music not another boring grindcore band. My personal favorites of five songs are ‘Te Jiede La Boca A Mocos De Cono’ and ‘3 Vomitos 3 Ejecuziones 3 Muertes’. I also love the clever use of samples and the horror atmosphere in some of the songs. Go listen to this one if you love bands like this one.

(news) Polish band MASS INSANITY covered THE EXPLOITED for the ‘Exploited Grindy Army – A Blast Beat Tribute to the Exploited’ compilation!

Leave a comment

MASS INSANITY is a Polish death metal band working on the Polish metal scene since 2003. They released three studio albums: The Hypochrist (2011), Antihuman (2015) and Maveth (2019). Music group from Chojnice created their version of The Exploited song and shared a message to the fans.

Band commentary: „After a six-month pause, we want to remind people of Mass Insanity. We were robbed, our equipment and merchandise were taken and we were forced to change the place of rehearsals. Let this cover be a message that it’s not enough to take away our desire to play. Mass Insanity is our baby, our hobby, we do it for ourselves and at our own pace, the break was needed, but the desire to create came back. We felt the hard way that the system was sick, that in the situation we found ourselves in, we were alone, without real help from the authorities. To express our feelings, we chose the song “System Fvcked Up” by the punk rock legend The Exploited, which is perfect for the occasion, let it be our manifesto against the people who robbed us and against the system that did not want to help us”.

Song was recorded, mixed and mastered by Viehu at Antihuman Studio and will be availabe on “Exploited Grindy Army – A Blast Beat Tribute to the Exploited” compilation, which will be released via The Hills Are Dead Records.

(review) Napalm Death – Resentment Is Always Seismic – A Final Throw Of Throes

Leave a comment

This is a little bit older release but no matter. This is an e.p, by these UK legends of grindcore and hardcore punk in their earlier era. This one contains seven songs, two being covers of Bad Brains and Slab! songs. I love how this band progressed through decades from pure grindcore speed and d-beat parts to something more pumping, adrenaline and energy fueled beast, with groove parts and technically more challenging songs with many different parts. Barney’s singing is as strong as ever and my personal favorites on this one are Narcissus and By Proxy. There is a kind of almost industrial vibe to this e.p. and very gloomy and almost post apocalyptic atmosphere, so I love it even more. May they deliver many more and bring joy with their extreme grindcore metal.
