This record is definitely on the top of the list of my favorite records of the worldwide Y2K hardcore and thrash explosion. Of all the lp's and 7"s i collected during this period, and there was a shit ton, this burly slab is the one I come back to over and over. This Cleveland band, infamous for the buck wild live shows, brought serious thunder on this album bursting with drunken haymaker to the face hardcore thrash. This shit is angry, very, very angry. The vocals are fucking insane and the music is brutal and reckless with enough hooks to keep it interesting. Even if you aren't really that into hardcore, i'm telling you, throw this on when you just can't fucking take it anymore and somethings got to give. i shit you not.

Roky Erickson and the Aliens - The Evil One (1980)
Get ready to be taken on another one. This album quickly became the most spun in my collection for months after i heard it. Roky Erickson is by far the most talented and tuneful outsider artist of all time! In the tradition of Screamin' Jay Hawkins and Boris Pickett, Roky wrote campy horror/sci-fi B-movie subject matter set to bouncy poppy guitar rocking greatness. Its all here, LUCIFER, demons, two headed dogs, zombies, bloody hammers, and even creatures with atom brains!! This man wrote the greatest odes to Lucifer ever put to tape! Sure the sound has a lot of 80's polish on it and sounds like some kind of rockin' texas boogie-woogie at times, which does turn some off, but just try to listen to this and not become obsessed with these songs. There is many Roky albums with many different bands, but this is the one! This album is undeniable! This is for fans of shit that doesn't suck.

Sylvester Anfang II - S/T
word falling - photo falling - breakthrough in grey room - calling patisans of all nations - towers, open fire-
for about ten years my old junkie uncle bill would read me to sleep with bedtime stories every night. stories riddled with drug use, messages of total resistance, dry dark humor, homo-erotica and proclamations of deep unbridled truth. he was a major influence on my belief structure during my formative years and he continues to inspire me to conduct a break through in the grey room. Call Me Burroughs was my introduction to the voice that would change my life.

The New Creation - Countdown To Revolution!
yesterday i was hipped to this group of mutant Canadian christian outsider's one and only album from 1970, Troubled. soul crushing justice sounds played by mutant lords of eccentricity. such sincere, odd, creepy, catchy, and joyful songs ineptly played in reverence of their lord.
don't be a dingus, check it out!!
