INHUMAN DISSILIENCY

 


Just when I was about to make some "old and out of touch" comment about how I just don't understand "kids these days" I realized that some of these tracks were recorded more than two decades ago. I guess that just means I was never meant to understand the wonder of PENNSYLVANIA GRINDING SLAMMAGE and that INHUMAN DISSILIENCY was simply never meant for me. And yet I keep listening - it's like a damn car crash and my neck is breaking while I keep trying to catch a glance. I remember when Kevin from RITUAL CONTROL told me what "slam" was while we were watching a "slam" band in Mexico in 2014 and....well, I thought I was just getting a handle on crab-core and then this thing happened and I simply accepted that I didn't understand. Still don't. Vocals on "Vomiting Decaying Fecal Matter" actually sound like someone is grunting "piggy, piggy, piggy" and it's about the most suitable moment of the entire tape. Tracks here form their 2004 demo, the split with DIGESTED FLESH, the Festering Fuckhole Slop split with ARTERY ERUPTION and the much sought after VOMITOUS split entitled Engorgement Of Exquisite Disembowelment. Erratic grind/sludge/slam with swamp monster vocals and....well, enjoy?

CONTEXT: I swung by Ragin' Records a few days ago to pick up a deadly grip of oldies and funk comps (including the Lowrider tape I posted yesterday) and naturally did some digging while I was there. Got a dead stock MUDWIMMIN EP and a single by a band I had never heard of and can't remember the name of but there was a song called "Straight Outta Tehachapi" so you know I'm gonna bite. There was a box in the back with a shitheap of JIMI HENMDRIX tapes, a SPETSNAZ demo and unknown (to me) metal tapes from DEHUMANIZER, COLONIZE THE ROTTING, ATAUDES, VOIMATON and this gem from INHUMAN DISSILIENCY. Shit was cheap and I had already broken the seal, so I acted appropriately about bought everything.
