Awesome Live Videos: Gojira - Live Paris, France 09/06/2016

Imagen
Gojira is one of my favorite bands. I was lucky that a friend recorded me Terra Incognita in the b side of a tape not long after it was released and I'd been following to the guys from Bayonna (French Basque Country), getting really excited with each release and loving each one of their records. My favorites are, I guess as most of the people, From Mars To Sirius and L'Enfant Sauvage, but I own their whole discography in vinyl and I love each one of them, included the last one Magma . Where some people find songs and sound too commercial for Gojira, I think that it's the perfect record for the moment of their careers in 2016. Obviously, I am really looking forward to get new music from them and there is a big expectations in this 2020 to get the next gojira work. And, you never know, but I'm pretty confident they won't dissapoint anyone. While they get to it, we always can enjoy their gigs. In my opinion, is the best live band I'd ever seen. I...

Sludge/Black Metal from Paris: Deliverance - Holocaust 26:1-46

Imagen
This French band is fucking awesome and this record, Holocaust 26: 1-46  by Deliverance  has me totally trapped into its own sonic world. I don't know if that even makes sense, English is not my first language and part of the point of this blog is to test myself writting it, so if anyone reads this please let me know if I write like a moron. ANYWAY, I'd been for a few days now absolutely hooked to this masterpiece, I don't know exactly what it is but it has some kind of hypnotic effect on me and sitting in the dark and stay quiet listening to it its becoming a pleasure. I won't waste the time trying to review it, there are plenty of great reviews around the internet (f.e. Angry Metal Guy ) but I'll tell you that this record it's something special, merging slow and heavy sludge with raw black metal sound, always with an intense doomy vibe and post punk feeling in the way the songs are structured and a lot of experimental stuff in general. Definitely wo...

Release of the day: KEVLAR SKIN, Necroroid

Imagen
This is one of the releases for 2020 I am more excited about. After a long time (and some line up changes) from their previous release Transmigrator , the veteran brutal death metal band from Córdoba (Spain) is back with a incredible cool record, high quality extreme music for your ears. But I won't bore you with my words, just check their bandcamp or their videos in youtube, I am pretty sure you'll dig them a lot if you like the genre! Necroroid by Kevlar Skin

Shut Yer Geggie Spotify Playlist I

Imagen
One of the things I wanted when I started this blog was to publish playlists every then an now. I'm creating playlists for myself constantly, why not sharing them online?  Today Sunday feels like a good day to make the first one: 12 songs from some of the bands I'd been posting since I started the blog a few weeks ago, opening and closing with Kevlar Skin , who are about to release their new LP Necrodroid and it is going to be a killer record, and including a classic from Black Sabbath , band I chose to start the blog and that precisely last week was celebrating the 50th anniversary from their first record, the birth of Heavy Metal ! Below, the spotify link to the playlist and a link to a playlist I'm creating in Youtube including all the tracks/bands I talk about in the blog. Thanks for reading/listening!

Bestial Holocaust, black/thrash from Bolivia

Imagen
A few weeks ago, when I went to the gig of Toxikull + Grapeshot + Devil In You in Sevilla, I met a guy from Bolivia and we had a couple of beers talking about several things...but mostly metal (obviously). We had a nice time, did some moshing during the gigs, got some more beer and were recommending bands to each other. After a couple of days I started checking the bands I wrote down in my phone during our conversation... And man, this band Bestial Holocaust is just my shit. I can't believe I didn't knew about them before! Apparently they'd been around since 1999 and they make the kind of putrid noise that makes me happy: fast, raw, satanic and disgusting thrash/black metal. Well, never is too late to enjoy good evil music. I'll leave a couple of links in case you don't know them either, you will dig this shit, I'm sure! Below you can listen their record Into The Goat Vulva from Iron Bonehead Productions bandcamp, and a live video from 2008 I found in ...

Awesome Live Videos: Power Trip, House Of Strombo (June 2018)

Imagen
Power Trip, that band from Dallas that we all love because guarantees fun and headbanging without a pause, performing in a fucking living room? Fuck yes! I didn't knew this 'House Of Strombo' show but man this is fucking awesome! Have to check more of their youtube channel, definitely. Increase the volume, start playing the video and enjoy!

Awesome bands: Hellripper

Imagen
One of my favorite bands of the last decade, definitely in my top 5 of 'new' young bands, is  Hellripper . Black/speed thrash metal from the Scottish Highlands with all the ingredients that metalheads love: amazing riffing, great solos, fast tempo, really cool vocals... And a lot of Satan, goats and all that sort of shite we love! Also, Hellripper has the coolest t-shirts that any band had released in the last few years and their last release, the EP 'Black Magic & Alchemy', should be in the collection of every metalhead of the planet. That EP is exactly what metal is supposed to be. Do a favour to yourself and listen to Hellripper . All hail the goat! HELLRIPPER BANDCAMP

Awesome Live Videos: Nailbomb, Dynamo Festival, 1995

When my pal recorded me a VHS with this gig I was already hooked to Point Blank by Nailbomb, and I really loved to see it perform live, even if was just on a tv screen. Thank you very much to whoever uploaded it, I really enjoy re watching it every then and now.

...and listen to Sanguisugabogg

Imagen
Sanguisugabogg is a disgusting death metal band from Ohio. Their sound is pure rotten vomit noise, exactly what you are expecting from a Maggot Stomp records band. Their EP Pornographic Seizures would be the perfect soundtrack for an orgy where everybody is high on cocaine and covered in blood and feces, so you know you are going to like it. Seriously, check this guys if you like death metal because they are your shit, guaranteed. Check Sanguisugabogg Bandcamp here!

Underground Is Better: Toxikull + Graveshot + Devil In You (Sevilla, 01/02/20)

Imagen
We all love a big rock music show, who doesn't? It's impossible not to have fun in an event with Metallica, AC/DC or Iron Maiden as headliners. They usually are really big and impressive shows produced by the best people in the business...but that last sentence is at the same time the main issue with this kind of concert. If you want to have the real and pure experience of live music, specially if you are talking about metal, there is nothing like the underground.  Last Saturday, first of February, I went to Sala Even (Sevilla) to see Toxikull, Grapeshot and Devil In You , and I just wanted to share with whoever read this that the three bands were great. I ain't no critic so I won't bore you with my opinion about the bands but I strongly recommed you to search for them in bandcamp, youtube, etc, and check their music. And of course, don't miss the opportunity to go and see them if they perform anywhere near of you. TOXIKULL - Heavy Thrash N' ...
