PHONING IT IN.....

I've been on vacation and/or tour for the past month. Tried to pile up enough posts before I left to keep you mutants satisfied (shit - let's be honest: I just want to keep you from leaving me for someone more regular and dependable), but I fell short by a bit, hence the blunt posts the last few days and no music today. But I'm back at TEHQ for 48 hours before I leave on the last leg of the RAKTA North American tour, and I can assure you that, from this point forward, you will get what you deserve. Daily. Like you want it....

I mean, the title says it all, right....?

UNDER THREE MINUTES FROM TWO SHIT GROUPS

AMYGDALA

We played San Antonio an AMYGDALA on the RITUAL CONTROL '13/'14 tour, an onslaught of hardcore delivered by people who were consumed by their own power and emotions. The vinyl offerings are all great, and I hope to see them in the flesh again....but this demo? A baker's dozen of relentless drum machine driven one man grind/PV that's gone in less than ten minutes, the self titled 2010 banger from this AMYGDALA is pure head spinning brutality to be filed alongside PARLAMENTARISK SODOMI and other mindfukkrs. Not at all what I was expecting...but exactly what I was wanting.

AMYGDALA

DECONSTRUCTION

Pure and absolute noise fukkn punk assault. Imagine Japanese crasher crust with the bombasity replaced with walls of muffled insanity and distortion, and then make it more brooding and distorted than that. Massive and oppressive sounds from a band who dropped just two demos before (to my knowledge) slipping away. 

DECONSTRUCTION

JUST SHORT OF LIVING

Perfect old school youth crew from Texas. The riffs, the backing gang vocals, the breakdowns....if this is your shit then you couldn't really ask for much more. 

JUST SHORT OF LIVING

Note: This demo is meant to have six songs, but my B-side is blank. You get what I get, punks...
