THRALL - CHEMICAL WEDDING (1996)
Well since I posted one Thrall album previously, I had to get more up here. This is their first full record as Thrall right after a doing a few singles as Hand Over Head. There are even 2 Hand Over Head songs that end up here. This is the best Thrall album in my opinion, with Mike Hard at his psychotic best, and with a combination of great guitar parts, electronic samples, and stellar production.
Do it now. Do it now!

SCUD - SPY SMASHER RECORDINGS / STEVE ALBINI RECORDINGS (1994)
Ahhhhh...the cool thing about doing this blog....discovering new shit. This was given to me from Boris who was in Scud, a killer, gnarly and ugly noise rock band from Germany in the mid 90s. This contains the Spy Smasher 4 song EP plus 4 extra non-released tracks from that recording. Also included are 4 songs that were recorded with Steve Albini that were supposed to go on a split with Big'n, but never happened. The recordings sound great. Would love for these songs to get a proper release some day.

MOUTHEATER - PASSING KEY (2014)
Goddamn I say, this is how its done! Ugly kozmik noise rock flower sludge right to the solar plexus. Moutheater (not Mouthbreather) from Norfolk Virginia rips our faces off with aggressive, gruff vocals, start and stop and fast and slow heavy riffs, thudding bass, and crushing drums. Imagine Coliseum, Unsane, Helmet, Ken Mode and Whores in a giant cement mixer jumping a live volcano. Wooooooo!

TABLE - UNWIND / GAG BOX 7" (1992)
Badass mathy noise-rock from Table out of Chicago, who were active in the mid 90s.
Think a mix of Tar, Jesus Lizard, Quicksand, Season To Risk, Shellac. You're thinking aren't you?
I can see the gears spinning. Spin spin spin.

BICHKRAFT - MACKOT (2014)
Another band submission.
This time from the Ukraine. Really good stuff in the vein of Dreamdecay, Big Black, Austerity Program, Future to the Left. The use of the drum machine mixed with slight heavyness and dark pop is done well here. Not so much tearing thru you like Godflesh, but there are some industrial-ish moments mixed with dark wave. On the lighter side for a noise record in terms of usual staticfraction posts. But its worth your attention.

THRALL - HUNG LIKE GOD (2001)
With all the Mike Hard projects in the world, I've posted some God Bullies, and Hand Over Head (which reminds me, I need to get the rest of both their shit up here), can't believe its taken this long to get some Thrall up here on this blog-a-reeno.
Ready for some dark, hilarious and perverted, religion poking and bashing, hangin' with the God Damn Devil good time nature of Thrall? Sell your soul by clicking that little link below.

SEX SNOBS - UGLY EP & LONELY LP (2014)
This was a band submission. Thanks fellers.
Really digging these pummeling sounds ripping through my ear canals and rattling around in my skull.
Sex Snobs are a 3 piece fuzzed out noise punk outfit from Oklahoma City, OK. You can hear Amrep/Learning Curve influences in there...some Guzzard / Vaz / Hammerhead style rawk, with vocals that almost remind me of Nation of Ulysses or other Dischord bands.
They have a full length and a new EP, so snag 'em up from their Bandcamp links below.

TWO TRICK HORSE - BURRO DEL FUEGO (2014)
Good schtuff from this one trick noise band from Leeds...UK that is. 5 song goodness for fans of Drive Like Jehu, Crain, and Shellac that rip, tear, shred, mangle and maim like spurs to the underside. Apparently these guys are finished already. Bummer to hear. Saddle up, and snag this down.
