Grunt & GelsominaGrunt / Gelsomina (2025)Harsh Noise, Power Electronics thank you water for the beautiful rec blistering and more slow paced terrifying rather than relentless violence but i still likey. first side is def the highlight, i think they get a bit too droning electronics wankery towards the end for my liking. good loud LAST ONE! 3 | |
Demifiend & OntologyChildren of Mars EP (2025) [EP]rhythmic, space, ominous, sampling, ethereal last rot snipe of 2025! chill grooves. potential 3 | |

16-武装翼の女神 [16-Armed Winged Goddess]Ripped Apart Then Reconstructed: Forever (2016) [EP]heavy, science fiction, futuristic, chaotic, dense really boring and yhen in the second half theres like edm shit going on yeah idk why ppl like this project so much 2.5 | |

underscoresDo It (2025) [Single]Contemporary R&B, Complextro, Electroclash, Electro House bouncy, vocal chops, fame, female vocalist, energetic friend asked me to its cool. i actually lowkey dont like the acoustic guitar shtick at first but i get used to it. nice rhythm flow. bad lyrics. prob wouldnt listen again but i wouldnt mind hearing it either 3 | |
Scatology SecretionSubmerged in Glacial Ruin (2020)very dense and higher fidelity kind of modern bdm but they have good taste in heavier slammy parts that make a few tracks really exciting. on the whole its nothing special tho 3 | |
Rapist Deemed AcquittedDemo 1 (2025) [Additional release]how did the jury reach that decision walled out. texture is okay. potential i think 3 | |
r u s s e l b u c kJust Be Competent (2020) [Single]Breakbeat, Dance-Pop, Indietronica Glitch Pop, Alternative Dance, Synthpop, Pop Rock sampling, female vocalist, bittersweet, energetic, rhythmic yeah great sample obv but whats really important here is the kicks. fucking genius dude 3.5 | |
The Day of the Triffids OH! BOOM! YES! they said it wasnt possible they said rocktime you cant finish one more book before the year ends they said theres no way youre finishing day of the triffids with less than a week left of 2025 and i said SUCK MY FUCKINGALBUM!!! I shouldnt really fault this book for being subversive in regards to genre - its more like "the day of blindness oh yeah and theres triffids i guess" - but what i really disliked about this book was how lazily it handled its subject matter and how blatantly misogynistic it was? it always felt like it was scratching at this masterpiece of a bleak fiction (though i will say during spoiler: click to read) but instead just feels like moving from one location to the next. and then and then and then. its also incredibly fucking boring for the first half. on the latter, its just gross and harmful the way wyndham writes his female characters versus his male characters. the ending is satisfying but feels foolishly optimistic, though i suppose its really about hope and new beginnings in the face of defeat. theres an element of anarchism as well that doesnt get enough attention. for now my feelings remain mixed with a slight distaste in my mouth. but thats 14 books this yeae! outdoing last year by a whole 3 more! i think next year i might be able to up my numbers even more, but we'll see how school treats me... at the very least i think another 12 is doable :) 2.5 | |
ProlepsisRedeemers (2025) [EP]noisy insane delay stutter glitching madness. simple and very effective. great stuff!!! 3.5 | |
LieroDemo 1 (2024) [Additional release]fresh off that holiday spirit we can get back into what really matters really cool experiment. its like an audio illusion kinda cuz it goes in between being water and being gore. so cool and inspiring 3.5 | |
Daniel IngramIt's a Pony Kind of Christmas (2015)Christmas Music, Children's Music, Show Tunes, Television Music warm, Christmas hohoho merry christmas everyoje had a good but tiring holiday woke up at liek 4 couldntsleep and then did 3 different events :exhausted: gfs christmas was nice her neice and nephew got fun things and it was cure watching ghem play and ride bikes and stuff. dad did white elephant which was nice first time doing that it was fun and we got a vegetable cutter a blanket a candle and something else i forgot. mom's was the most successful she always buys way too much for us even though i told her we were coming light handed... oh well and my sister got me a bunch of books im super excited for! also it was a harry potter themed dinner which was fun listened throughout the day while driving. very cute. i like the more upbeat ones as opposed to the christmas ballad stuff. rd jingle bells is kind of the best song ever it has a damn tempo change in it thags crazy 3 | |
No Point in LivingLast Silent Night (2019) [Single]Christmas, instrumental fuck you santa kills self i wish there was vocals tbh but good gatar 3 | |
RapelordChristmas Cunny Chronicles (2024) [EP]no lie been holding off on this one for like 3 months also not really christmas except track 1 its nice but not essential snog 3 | |
AmuletChristmas Special (2024) [Single]RAGGHHHH BABABABAHAHAHAHA yep not really christmas 3 | |
John ZornA Dreamers Christmas (2011)Surf Rock, Exotica, Jazz Fusion, Cool Jazz Christmas, instrumental, mellow, playful, improvisation we back on that btd6 grind pokes and prods along its pleasant but doesnt do much to keep me interested. perhaps if mr patton appeared more than once itd be a bit more fun 2.5 | |
The Beach BoysThe Beach Boys' Christmas Album (1964)Christmas Music, Vocal Group, Pop Rock Christmas, male vocalist, happy, melodic, winter moooooooore they also play songs from this at work first half is actually p good very quick and engaging. second half is way slower more ballad christmas songs and loses me. ending is kino making me tear up love you guys 3 | |
Various ArtistsA Disney Channel Holiday (2007) [Compilation]female vocalist, winter, happy, Christmas, melodic hey dude its fucking christmas eve eve so we pre pre gaming off that disney shit store i work at plays (or used to, i think theyve actually changed the playlist recently for some reason) plays a good amount of tracks on this for some reason and i love the jonas brothers and aly & aj tracks so much i was convinced to listen. as i kind of expected i really only fw the pop rock tracks and even then i kind of prefer the originals. that said, the last track is literally the most amazing r&b ever like that is so good who tf is drew seeley 3 | |
GorezunyanCutie Cutie (2012)Goregrind, Cybergrind, Gorenoise noisy, chaotic, playful, raw, female vocalist silly little release plays with the samples in fun ways. too short though 3 | |
Action/DisciplineOut of Stasis (2024)chaotic, dense, lo-fi, manic bummin some cassettes off my boy just damn good harsh fuckinnn noise. dig the A side's studio production and A2's brevity but bruuuuh the live tracks are so killer i should prob peep more. sucks that split with wrong hole never came out that wouldve been exciting 3.5 | |
LinaLina (2021)buddy gave me his copy cuz he didnt want it anymore so yay expected straight wall but its actually quite moving dynamjc. some blistering moments 3 | |
Ushinawareta TamashīKonoshita (2017)repetitive, autumn, meditative, natural, soothing listened while playing btd6 its good, i like the first track, i dig the ambience, but they kind of just feel like background noise rather than real mood pieces. 3 | |
PurityBoyzAll by Myself (2014) [Single]literally a great song until yungjza verse and i cant let that slide. perfect hook tho 3 | |
Igorrr & Ruby My DearMaigre (2014) [EP]Western Classical Music, Avant-Garde Metal, Cybergrind, Neurohop female vocalist, sampling, eclectic, maximalist, chaotic great sound design and has some highlights but im ultimately out of this phase of my life. lots of cool ideas though, id argue its essential for anyone in this sphere. i wish they grooved out a bit more though 3 | |
Allison Reynolds099032 (2019) [EP]sounds way too digitally processed and artificial. i like the panning and irregularities but i can kinda tell its a loop which is boring 2.5 | |
ManikinSpellbound (2025)the actual wall itself is not too bad, normal angel business, but oh man that scraping sound thats ever present throughout the whole thing just really ruins this for me. not a fan. 2.5 | |
PunishmentNausea // Part One (2025) [DJ Mix]Deathstep, Deconstructed Club, Tearout [Brostep] ok done with christmas forever this is highkenuinely crazy and why did shave 3 insane sound design. post bass-music 3.5 | |
PoppyLast Christmas (2025) [Additional release]Christmas Music, Alternative Rock, Power Pop female vocalist, Christmas, melodic meh she doesnt really do anything with the song other than like a key change pointless 2.5 | |
August Burns RedWinter Wilderness (2018) [EP]Christmas Music, Melodic Metalcore instrumental, winter, holiday, Christmas, technical kinda wish it wasnt all instrumental but whatever. good guitar sound. title track is my fav i think. emotional at times 3 | |
Ariana GrandeChristmas & Chill (2015) [EP]Christmas Music, Contemporary R&B, Pop winter, love, Christmas, female vocalist, sensual last minute gift shopping!!! the holiday music begins pretty chill indeed. good beat selection but most songs are in one ear out the other. vibes 3 | |
GhostUntitled (2011)the first half of this is so good, especially the proto anw second track. second half feels kinda digital which is weird given the date but i just dont like the textures as much. still nice tho 3.5 | |
The New BlockadersSimphonie in Ø Minor (1991)silence help vote anw on this really comforting. feels so full even though its low low key accore 3.5 | |
Guttural SlugUlcers in the Flesh of Thought (2025) [EP]heavy, aggressive, dense, rhythmic, harsh vocals what the fuuuuuck didnt see this coming and its so fucking bad ass heaviness also chuck that one guy saying this isnt slam like did you really listem bro joker sample is actually badass as fuck 3.5 | |
Predator: Badlands (2025)big day with waterplaster and todaywasgod of whataburger movies and taking pictures you will see the results in like 1 month bro had been begging us to see this with him for like a month (embarrassing 😭) so thats whag we did and shave had free tickets so it didnt even cost anything! premise wise its like really fucking stupid and the whole predator family drama angle is just bad theres really no other way to put it. forced cinematic emotional swelling le bad ass fight choreography. however after elle fanning joins the crew my enjoyment went up like 100x. i really enjoyed her very silly and inquisitive performance. i also like her character (thia) a lot. movie tries to do some side plot expansion of alien universe which i dont have much to say about but i guess thats cool. its funny that all of the synths look like my old boss. i like learning about all of the different aliens. i think making the main character a predator that is bad at hunting is just a really poor choice that is probably very hard to nail down correctly. 3 | |
Kim PetrasI Like Ur Look (2025) [Single]Electropop, Dance-Pop, Electro House longing, fashion, envy, pastiche, melodic very nice! really like how staccato it sounds. super electro. very catchy 3.5 | |
pinniped / burning airVIII (2025)does not do much for me feels like very inactive personalities on both but its nice warm anw activities. i thought burning air would be more raw but nope 3 | |
everyone deserves heaveneveryone deserves heaven (2025) [Single]great cover its quite nice tbh its rly amateur and left field but i like it i agree lamo sounds like gore video 3 | |
you're more than i could have ever wished foryou're more than i could have ever wished for (2025) [EP]sorry for covers comfy quick wall distant 3 | |
TunnelsAnd Then There’s This (2025)hyep finally lissened sorry it took so long charlie i already heard the demo and the 50 minute runtime is so daunting to a goreguy like me #mylife not my typical foray but i appreciate the production and some aspects of their writing. particularly strong guitar parts and a competent drummer who flexes just enough (but maybe repeats himself a bit too much?) keep it interesting all the way through. lyrically i think charlies got a lot of room for growth but i wouldnt say its anything offensive or outright bad. i think he needs to scream more. i also think he should try singing softer on some parts, but i know they going for that whiny emo which is still good. lots of sdre vibes. favs are fly ribbon and the second track and julien in third 3 | |
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)our friends are going through the hp movies rn and my gf has wanred to do the same with me so we decided to team up and feed two birds with one scone ive already seen this one but it was a good refresher to rewatch it even though i remembered most of the plot. kind of the first serious movie in the series like mfs die in this and its always crazy to me how emotionally mature harry is because he literally grew up abused and neglected asf and like no one likes him but everyone fw him thats gotta be so mentally taxing i feel like hes not eben that good of a wizard also and why is krum a groomer bro na | |
HimukaltSee One Dark Eye (2016)opens very promisingly with some le epic harsh but then i remember this is death industrial so everything is fucking boring as shit 2.5 | |
Jana Irmert / 7038634357Portals / Rope (2025)Drone, Electroacoustic, Dark Ambient, Reductionism avant-garde doing chores eh i mean. don't really care about jana's track like at all it's fine i guess but i get nothing from it neo's side is markedly better but doesnt leave a lasting impression. good sound design as usual though 2.5 | |
Lymphoma / CuntpumpLump / Perverted Hysterectomy (2012)mm lump lump side great. perfect comfort gore. love pump side not as great but still fun. less comfort. enjoy 3.5 | |
The Road this one actually goes here tho yes! you are seeing this correctly! i still read books! was really on a roll this year hitting 11 books before august even got here and i was on track to get through another 5-6 if i kept pace, but life picked up hella. we started reading this together as our first book we would have reading sessions for (and we also tried annotating and note taking which didnt last very long), but after my girlfriends grandpa passed away, my employment situation changed and my penultimate semester kicked off we just lost all the time and motivation to keep up with it (not just this book but reading in general (i still have 2 other books i started in that time that i have yet to finish!). we finally set aside the time this week to just sit down and tank through the last quarter of this though and it was so worth it. now im back in the reading mood and my goal is to wrap up those other two books before the year ends so i can start 2026 fresh and clean. easily clears blood meridian not just because it was way easier to read tho. its ultra slow consistent bleak gray nothing but i could have honestly stayed in their world for another 200 pages or something. the inherent goodness of people and the persistence of hope in the face of a ruined cold universe. i want to say he kind of explores father/son but its more about faith. was a 3.5 the entire book until the end. ruins me to death 4 | |
Solar Opposites Season 6 yep and i also forgot about this one so same deal i was pretty excited but i took my time getting thru it cuz its the final season. i think its lowkey a good move in a way to stop it here cuz its feels like they lowkey slowly lost the plot on the family. really its korvo but i know the VA change probably changed a lot bts but also yumyulack feels like a totally different character sometimes. its also kind of infuriating how they handled the silver cop storyline. not that that was even that good to begin with but yall gotta commjt to ts, finale episode felt so fucking random and rushed lol. same with the wall but i guess it wasnt as bad, such an unsatisfying ending but i kinda respect it. humor still lands frequently for me though so no complaints there. | |
Smiling Friends Season 3 this entry was supposed to be way earlier but i forgot about it and i dont remember when exactly it should go so it will just go here feels like they have kind of settled into a more predictable groove but theres still fun ideas. it seems like theyre really emphasizing allen and mr boss' character quirks but it doesnt rly work because it just feels forced. i am also kind of over the whole realistic dialogue improv stuff but really its just cuz they place it so predictably; it makes for kinda a boring punchline. still a good watch tho i dont rly get why this show of all shows needed a weekly rollout. | |
woman hit by buswoman hit by bus (2025) [EP]eh idk definitely not gorenoise but i guess its interesting "gore" uber walled out drum+noise loops feels bery goref very 1 dimensional though pretty boring she says its retired but i think it would be nice to see what else can be done with this idea 2.5 | |
Positive SuicideThings We Realized Are Almost the Heart-Rending Tragedies (2011) [Additional release]energetic, passionate, male vocalist nice kinda cute feels like 7 min long its so prog 3 | |
A Gut Full of Foreskin / Transpired Bowel JunkA Gut Full of Foreskin / Transpired Bowel Junk (2012)too much foreskin 👎 (samples) tbj side has good drums 3 | |
PollihylaFragile Tapestry (2025)Ambient Noise Wall, Field Recordings instrumental, repetitive, crackly, hazy, bassy ijteresting. pulsing movement. very quiet. vinyl crackle is not the first thing that comes to mind. curious if they will continue making wall 3 | |

Dr. Lehmann / Sewer Rat Rave / Hurt Center / xDxFxAxLxCxFilth Glorification Tapes 1: Split Tape (2021)sorry rust im finally listenejng now lehman side is kind of interesting take on gorewall its quieter and more meditative it feels like sewer rat rave i was expecting to be really stupid but it was actually kinda cool how they approach mixing hardcore kicks with gore ideas hurt center the most boring and out of place side. just harsh noise dfalc was really aquatic sprawling anw i wish it was gore but they are vocal less a bit too unfocused but its not bad! 3 | |
YungJZAIsDeadPink & Blue (2018)male vocalist, melodic, rhythmic, longing first track is like the best awesomest song ever love it but the rest dont tap into that same kinda flow energy and he does ts where vocals are gain boosted and limited its so annoying. wasnt expecting plugg beats. fatse feat is nice 2.5 | |
PanicHunter (2016) [Single]first track is nice krkrkckshhakrkrrrkr second is not as nice but still kekskakekrkrrkrrkf 3 | |
Urinary Tract Infection From Severe Pus ClotsExpectant Putrescence & Imminent Putrefaction: Pseudopathological Postnecrologies in the Morgue (2025)kato score excited me but its kinda just a normal bobby. 3 | |
Hydroencephalocystocele / Submersed in Infected Medical WastesHydroencephalocystocele / Submersed in Infected Medical Waste (2023)fuccc hydro side is like the most blown out amazing ever. i like when he makes it multiple tracks submersed side is okay. doesnt feel memorable 3.5 | |
CuttershyDemo (2022) [EP]lo-fi, aggressive, androgynous vocals, manic, dissonant last wave emo or whatever they call it its bedroom screaming stuff too short to say much else its nice 3 | |

leopard seal & harbor sealYou've Overcome It All, and We Stand Here Hand in Hand Under My Bare Paws the Ground Is Hot, and Now I Proclaim the Love You've Put in Me Is Greater Than Anything Else (2025)triumphant, crackly, bright, winter, atmospheric friends intimacy light OK AND DONE with 25 releases (mostly theres a few here and there ill get to eventuallybut the bulk is out the way) 3 | |
SanguisugaboggHideous Aftermath (2025)Slam Death Metal, Dissonant Death Metal heavy, harsh vocals, dense, energetic, dissonant ill be honest ... it aint half bad. im chill w the production and these guys lowkenuinely know how to write some riffs. very healthy amount of head nodding and grooving. songs feel kinda forgettable though and nothing alone stands out, plus its kinda long... but as one whole listen i cant really dog on it like i wanted to. tourists are safe for today... 3 | |
Dead and DrippingNefarious Scintillations (2025)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal Progressive Metal, Avant-Garde Metal technical, psychedelic, uncommon time signatures, dark, abstract thank you vomir has a kind of looseness that makes it a lot more interesting than your average annual tech death chart topper. really good sense of brutality too, id say it even leans into the slamspace at points. very obtuse and alien. love it 3.5 | |
Zach Hill & Lucas AbelaBag of Max Bag of Cass (2025)Free Improvisation, Power Noise, Glitch, Electroacoustic noisy, manic, chaotic, dense, aggressive pretty cool. more digestible than their last collab i think, the elements are a bit more separated and distinct. a bit too long for me, and whats up with all of the silence at the ends of tracks? i appreciate the wide range of textures as well, but ngl ts does sound like death grips from time to time. 3 | |
Uterine Wall Avulsion / Genophobic PerversionUterine Wall Avulsion / Genophobic Perversion (2025)chore day uwa side is kinda normal its good but not on par with ep gp side however... reminds me a looot of that uwa ep. no count off gore bro. and the snare is just ridiculous. bro still got it 3 | |
The Rita / Black Leather Jesus / J S H / Vomir / Fall Into Dry LungsLive Split (2025)shrug. vomir has the best side unsurprisingly. ritas is good but his live work just doesn't translate well into at home listening format. jsh is fine, no comment. dry lungs is a random ah addition id rather they just have bruising pattern play but maybe it was a local thing idk. their side kinda buns. oh yeah and blj side has nice textures but like rita it doesn't translate 3 | |
Nasty Maid GrinderBreak-The-Sound (2025)Glitch, Drill and Bass, Mashcore ok this is fucking ridiculous. nmg comes back in 2025 and its fucking breakflash riddim mashcore?! buzz words aside... 🐝... this is actually super fucking good. covers a lot of ground and feels so exciting. feels way shorter than it is too. the opening run of tracks is like the best thing ever bruh 3.5 | |
Silver DoveHeart of Grief (2025)lovely. layered and droning. the guitars are a nice addition, though it moves away from that in the second half. would love to see how the dove continues to play with their sound after this 3.5 | |
pinnipedpolymorphism (2025)Reductionism, Onkyo, Ambient Noise Wall the most sparse minimal noise wall bruh 3 | |
Puce Mary & IncapacitantsLive at Wall&Wall MODE 2024.06.01 (2025)dissonant, chaotic, dense, noisy, improvisation fucking ridiculous. lethal ripping. also kinda crazy unexpected collab? not something id ever expect but it sounds so much better than i thought it would. violent as fuuuck shave needs to peep before 26 3.5 | |
BladeeIngen hör (2025) [Single]Coldwave, Neoclassical Darkwave male vocalist, ethereal, rhythmic, Christian, melancholic this is pretty nice. i was expecting it to be not as nice. i like his singing in both tracks. 2 might be my fav tho 3 | |
Alison WonderlandGhost World (2025)Hybrid Trap, Future Bass, Electro House, Dubstep, Electropop energetic, punchy, melodic, bassy, dense its fine. its a nice no brain fun listen. her production has def taken a step up and shes doing some Sound Design here too tjag i thnk is cool but a lot of tracks just feel like retreading popular edm sounds. really dont like her voice either 3 | |
Richard Ramirez / T.E.F.Richard Ramirez / T.E.F. (2025)rr side is kinda boring af as fuck and just really meh textures. tef side is fucking bad ass as fuck though literally amazing. if it was a solo ep it would be easy contender for a top aoty 3 | |
pinnipedyour gentle breath soothes my heart (2025) [EP]more miniscule wall. safety 3 | |
Train CemeteryThe Last Turn of Samsara (2025)agree with lamo this is a much better take on progressive wall. a lot more fully realized as he says. textures leave a lot to be desired but i think if he continues working this way we'll get some masterpieces in no time 3 | |
claire rousayA Little Death (2025)Field Recordings, Spoken Word, Chamber Music, Electroacoustic sampling, nocturnal, philosophical, nature, atmospheric cute little collage work. doesnt do much but its nice morning chores music 3 | |
TortureWar Crime 2: Genocide Protocol, Act III: Revelations (For 12 Musicians) (2025)Integral Serialism, MIDI Music, Modern Creative anticolonialism, political, surreal, concept album, anti-authoritarian lol at the ppl bombjng the ratings for this. its 5 minutes yall. feels hard to be strongly opinionated either way about this its just a quick run of midi instruments in some kind of loose composition. i respect it for existing 3 | |
TortureWar Crime 2: Genocide Protocol, Act II: Exodus (2025)Noisecore, Free Improvisation, Audio Documentary, Avant-Garde Metal Interview, Sound Collage, Gorenoise, Audio Documentary war, political, concept album, sampling, disturbing fucccck yes this is really good. great return to form for him coming bsck to this free sound. its less gore texture though but i still like it. definitely leans more into traditional noisecore sound 3.5 | |
TortureWar Crime 2: Genocide Protocol (2025)Beatdown Hardcore, Technical Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal war, anticolonialism, bassy, political, raw its definitely an improvement over their last album. a lot less minimal and with a tighter runtime (thank god). theres actually a handful of exciting moments here but for every genuinely great track theres å fucking dookie stinker (NEUTRALIZED...) 3 | |
KewyoFav Gabber Works, Vol. 1 (2025) [EP]neat little tracks. thanks for the download code kewyo 3 | |

pinnipedyour shadow still lingers anywhere i go (2025) [EP]warm, crackly, lonely, instrumental, atmospheric wind sigh 3 | |
Liam ShurmAlienation (2025) [EP]kinda reminds me of some of the weird leftfield super early deat hindustrail power electronics synth experiments. its pretty boring liam im sorry but theres nice ideas sometimes 2.5 | |
der himmel blau wie deine augenNur die Blätter geben sich dem fallen hin, doch wir verweigern uns Dem Herbst (2025)nice laura wall. nothing much else to say 3 | |
RoosterRooster Slipped (2025)Cloud Rap, Experimental Hip Hop Art Pop, Emo Rap, Neo-Psychedelia, Alternative R&B lethargic, depressive, psychedelic, ethereal, atmospheric cool i mean gud is always doing interesting stuff instrumental production wise so no complaints there its nice how he bridges lots of styles together and his approach to rapping is unique and notable but none of this rly sticks with me. cool i guess but i will forger it soon 3 | |
Sulfuric CauteryConsummate Extirpation (2025)heavy, death, aggressive, dense, noisy accidentally a whole fuckin week behind again. #letsgettheseentries sc back with a new album and this time they are playing with brutality. kind of got hints of this when i saw them live and yep its basically fucking awesome as shit. isaac is actually a really great drum writer i love all his parts on this and i think these longerform more part-oriented songs really let his versatility shine. also riffs as fuck. bad ass orchidectomy too not sure if theyll continue with this style the promo for this makes it seem like a one time thing but it would be cool to see how they evolve in this direction. as it is now tho this def isnt as good as theyre normal gore 3.5 | |
Encephalomyeloradiculoneuropathy / HydroencephalocystoceleEncephalomyeloradiculoneuropathy / Hydroencephalocystocele (2025) [EP]um wrf hello new gorewall goat 🥹 ence side is fucking so good holy hydro side i also rly like its very raw and different from his normal but its cool longer songs and feels really dirty 3.5 yay | |
2SlimeyHigh Anxiety (2025)Rage, Experimental Hip Hop, Hardcore Hip Hop, Terror Plugg Power Noise, Industrial Hip Hop, Terror Plugg bassy, noisy, manic, dense, heavy lots of fun. really dense and its basically like some psykotic with more distortion sometimes. mfw the worst beat is ok's 🤣 i think the vocals are the main problem. mixed a little too loud (theyre like sidechained to the beats which takes away from the hugeness) and in general just a little too processed his older vocals were better. but jake made a good point its like he got the osamason che vocal chain so its more accessible probably babytron track is easy pleb filter 3.5 | |
kimjKOREAN (2025)Brostep, Fidget House, Moombahcore rhythmic, heavy, mechanical, vocal chops, playful first actual skrillex worship and its so good. cranks out a ridiculous amount of ideas. the init synth legend as taylor is saying 3.5 | |
DJ Thank YouRoller Coaster (2025)cool super rhythmic techno electro stuff. trap informed. shouldve been a mix 3 |
夢研究センター [Dream Research Center]夢のリゾートパラダイス [Dream Resort Paradise] (2025)calm, mellow, female vocalist, repetitive, sampling oh you thought the slush wave was over NOPE what i imagine when i think slushwave. pure instrumental chillout. i wish it was a liiiittle less active tho will investigate further 3 | |
Space LacesVaultage 004 (2025)Bass House, Tearout [Brostep], Briddim, Hybrid Trap, Complextro, Riddim bouncy, sampling, punchy, dense, energetic ill let the reviews and comments handle this but its obviously his best drop work ever no doubt hands down. too many highlights but something they wont tell you that i have an issue with is the sequencing (or really the structuring i guess). something that FUS and MTGFYT get right is fleshed out tracks and transitioning into drops, respectively. skrillex knows how to craft a build up and even moreso knows how to work quick tracks into a sequenced mix so it never really loses steam without being drop after drop. moody good understands energy conservation and chooses to build into drops rather than drop into build ups. i think the best way i can put this is that vaultage 004 feels like your favorite noisecore with 1 second pauses added between every track. 3.5 still tho | |
drifting awaybrittle autumn dawn (2025)vulnerable messy sample workshop. tapped into a fleeting innocence 3.5 | |
Tantric BileA Medusa in Your House (2025)male vocalist, avant-garde, suspenseful, ritualistic, dark eh its a bit up its ass with the storytelling classical shit that matt keeps doing but theres still a good amount of nasty free bits that make it worth it. last track is cool 3 | |

Liam ShurmI Love My Life (2025) [EP]really busy vibrant particle accelerator noise ala CCCC (or more specifically Mayuko Hino). its pretty and comfy. i would like some more low end next time Mr Shurm! 3 | |
SquassationDecorated With Feculent Appurtenances (2025)aggressive, dark, death, ominous, macabre boring nothing uninspired and then fucking Whoretapotty. sure whatever dude 2.5 | |
Frost ChildrenSister (2025)Festival Progressive House, Fidget House, Dance-Pop, Electroclash party, noisy, pastiche, nonbinary vocalist, bouncy really exciting instrumentals and production; its crazy how loud they master their shit. love the drops and synth abuse stuff. cant stress enough how much i hate their vocals on this though. the shouted vocals and like gain boost limiter is so grating and its like 45 minutes of ts. they need to go back to just singing. i do wish it was shorter in general tho 3 | |
tripleS / tripleS msnzBeyond Beauty (2025) [EP]Drum and Bass, Dance-Pop, K-Pop Contemporary R&B, Dancefloor Drum and Bass, Liquid Drum and Bass female vocalist, rhythmic, happy, romantic, love this is actually lowkey pretty good atp the kpop dnb stuff is starting to get kinda stale but they juice it out enough so tracks like bubble gum and q&a meet thd mark. christmas alone is easily the best one here though cmon yall 3 | |
fromis_9하얀 그리움 [White Memories] (2025) [Single]Christmas Music, K-Pop, Dance-Pop Funktronica, Funky House, Electropop, Classical Crossover female vocalist, Christmas, lush, energetic, uplifting yeah whatever merry christmas 2.5 | |
Sulfuric Cautery / Hacked ApartSulfuric Cautery / Hacked Apart Split (2025) [EP]Goregrind, Grindcore, Gorenoise cautery side is more like their old material in both mixing and with the black metal vocals (theyre back). kinda boring lowk but i think im just spoiled by their other recent output hacked side is overrated normal goregrind stuff 3 | |
Cystic Hygroma / Hemorrhagic Pyrexia VirusHemorrhagic Induced Vascular Disruption with Extensive Intracranial Effluence (2025)cystic side is really babababzzzzzzzz good then hemor side is so cool i had a really fun time listening to this :D 3.5 | |
Effluence / Tantric Bile / Steve Matthews TrioEffluence / Tantric Bile / Steve Matthews Trio (2025) [EP]Free Improvisation, Gorenoise, Experimental Rock, Brutal Death Metal hello little surprise ep split, why tf have none of my moots listened though thats crazy im really first to the plate yall step your game up effluence track is peak free gore, never gets old. tantric track is kinda mid tbh its on some of that modern classical adjacent avant garde metal stuff theyve been toying with, it kinda falls flat in this format. trio track is more awesome free content, love the drums (i wonder why) 3.5 | |
SplanchnopleuriticexenterationRuptured Multiloculated Abdominal Cystic Degeneration Secondary to Chronic Suppurative Inflammation (2025)2025 gorewall is STILL relevant! more of the demo sound (great) 3.5 | |
Anal StabwoundEnshrining the Many-Fingered Grasp (2025) [EP]Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal aggressive, uncommon time signatures, complex, technical, male vocalist fuck yes this is so good. actually nasty at times, bro is saving tech great writing and this feels a lot less like tryhard showmanship and more like nikhil being able to just let loose and put together the best parts of all of his disciplines 3.5 bruh | |
The DeepKPOP B!TCH (2025)Electropop, K-Pop, Dance-Pop, Electro House rhythmic, party, female vocalist, bouncy, energetic pretty fun super loud edm conscious stuff. i think too many tracks feel underwhelming enough to hold this back from being dope but theres still some good ones like lucky star and wrong number. 3 for now | |
Omnicidal InstinctCatharsis in Blight (2025) [EP]technical, rhythmic, manic, aggressive, heavy blarhhhgggg brutalllllllll good old schol sound and the musicianship here is really something but i dont think it stays with me very long after i listen. still check it out brutal frens 3 | |
koleDesire (2025) [EP]mellow, nocturnal, longing, dark, cold relaxing. would have been nice to see live. but does null room NK mean it was live on the webs? idk. cozy stuff frend 3 | |
Splanchnopleuriticexenteration / Clogged Stomach With ExcrementsClogged Stomach With Excrements / Splanchnopleuriticexenteration (2025)kx side is more peak fucking goretone dumpster trainwreck. huge fuckin sound everykne saying clogged side is boring its definitely not as good as kx but its still fun yall cmon 3.5 | |
in53ctSeagulls Soar Like Dandelion Seeds (2025)soft and vulnerable. love the indietronica plugg stuff it really emphasizes that organic sound without being as ... intimate as like shed/nod beats. in53ct > swords2 anyday, hes better rapping and lyrically. and better voice. good stuff 3.5 | |
Ruby My DearConfiture à la Plage (2025)energetic, humorous, playful, polyrhythmic, quirky for as quirky and bouncy as its trying to be it falls completely flat and is just plain boring. uninspired and vapid chops; it just sounds like what id imagine an autopilot ruby my dear album would sound like. no one else except for NDAD is allowed to make circuscore 2.5 | |
MerzbowSedonis (2025)chaotic, dense, noisy, instrumental cool eai informed zbow maximal i hear a earthquaker data corruptor noise in the last track 3 | |
DJ WoePurple Tape 1 (2025) [Compilation]female vocalist, rhythmic, eclectic, instrumental a bit too much variety to succinctly describe it but i guess if i have to be very vague its "good". recontextualizing a lot of mainstream lowbrow edm trends and sounds into something like pc music but way more linear, danceable and accessible. highlights are set you free, wheeze, bulletproof, and up de flore 3 | |
SubjugationUnending Despair (2025) [Single]funny ig bassist posted this a while ago saying hes playing in it. finally got around to adding it. its fine. doesnt stick but i like the more rough production 3 | |
AnatomizeSystematic Torture (2025)Brutal Death Metal, Slam Death Metal heavy, war, crime, homicide, dark solid slam stuff. a bit too well produced for me liking. Perpetual Dysphagia is rly fuckin tight though that had me stank facing 3 | |
BurialComafields / Imaginary Festival (2025) [Single]Future Garage, Dub Techno, Ambient Techno, Ambient Trance, Progressive Electronic, Psybient, Tribal Ambient, Sound Collage, Spoken Word atmospheric, sampling, ethereal, nocturnal, repetitive so funny people still clinging onto untrue asking for another one and complaining with this shit. i promise if he wanted to cash in on untrue and make a quick buck off his legacy it would not take a lot of effort on his part 🙏 even though this isnt nearly as good its pretty clearly an elevated and very mature continuation of that signature sound. i still need to listen to the other 2010s singles but it seems like hes always moving the bar in a new or further direction. even if it isnt always dope i think you have to be dense not to hear it. really longing swelling title track. i like the one-dimensional idea of just a pulsing kick on both tracks. feels like rave limbo. second one im less keen on but its still fine. good collage work as always 3 | |
MikeBrokeasfEM0THUG (2025)Hardcore [EDM], Industrial Hip Hop, Rage, Drill, Power Noise, Hardstyle raw, avant-garde, dissonant, surreal, manic so fuckin awesome. literally every zatru beat is so peak and its honestly nice to hear someone other tjan bleood on them (since he fell off like crazy). mikes got good energy too i couldt stop thinking about how fun he was live 3.5 | |
OklouChoke Enough (Remixes) (2025) [EP]Changa tuki, Space Ambient, Euro Trance female vocalist, ethereal, atmospheric, melodic, soft it comes and goes. nothing sticks really but its pleasant. james is some deadmau5 hella 3 | |

Artists and Models (1955)its a damn good fun time. jerry literally lights up the screen everytime hes in frame. it starts off kind of slow but over the course of the whole thing it snowballs so fast and by the end theyre clocking ridiculous ideas per minute. love the love too this is honestly an amazing romance movie, the back to back massage and staircase scenes cmon now. i also like how ridiculous the secret service / russian spy side plot is. they were honestly just having fucking fun making this also of note that one review mentioning how hella vulgar this was for its time like the visual innuendos are crazy 3.5 | |
Play Misty for Me (1971)we're back with our long awaited next movie night. tonights menu is CLINT and JERRY! really interesting that its lowkey a slasher? not really but its cool that clint was even playing with that kind of stuff. its a good time but it honestly drags at points, can feel p inconsistent with pacing. i thought it was gonna end early like 3 or 4 different times lol. compared to the other early clint ive seen (breezy) i wouldnt say this is as good. loved the jazz festival and overall humor too 3 | |
秋 [Autumn]永遠の愛曲 (2020)lo-fi, lonely, calm, mellow, repetitive oran slushy mood pieces. last track is nice but i wish this wasnt an hour 3 | |
desert sand feels warm at night新世界の弟子たち [New World Disciples] (2021)calm, warm, peaceful, desert, spiritual really consistent and its a great proof of concept that if you actually worked on the music you were slowing down youd have a lot more creative control and therefore a more fruitful final piece. i think the length and slight lack of variety hurt it for me but this is still one of the better slush albums ive heard. curious to see what else they have 3 | |
CT57Millbrook Memories (2024)Sound Collage, Ambient Americana, Plunderphonics mellow, sampling, melancholic, ethereal, sentimental orange wave moment blerp its like the other ct i listen to like random vibe tracks that set a mood and then have a connecting through thread of some kind of white noise putting them in the same universe. its nice 3 | |
ILLITNot Cute Anymore (2025) [Single]Pop Reggae, Pop Rap, Trap [EDM], Alt-Pop introspective, mellow, female vocalist, repetitive, lyrical dissonance shrug i guess title track is kinda fun the reggae angle is interesting. second one is really confusing why they would even interpolate that song but the beat is coo 3 | |
kv_wg1b0QVk(≚ᄌ≚)lonely❤ (2019) [EP]sampling, lonely, lobit i agree evael. it is lonely. and its cold. i like first track 3 | |
天堂山 [Paradise Mountain]意图 (2023) [EP]Slushwave, Ambient, Cinematic Classical nature, atmospheric the first track is kinda nice and i like that they are playing with song structure but its just a bit too... epic-y? and like huge. i also hella rolled my eyes at the second sample lol 3 | |
t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者アンタラ通信 [Antara Communication] (2015)Mallsoft, New Age, Drone, Dreampunk ethereal, mysterious, atmospheric, soothing, futuristic its pretty relaxing and in the beginning and ending couple of tracks its downright awesome, but a lot of these just dont stick with me too much. surface level i guess 3 | |
浮世 [Ukiyo]星々は永遠である [The Stars are Eternal] (2025)more longform looping slush. first track is fine vibes idrc too much but the second is a lot nicer. relaxing 3 | |
トリニティー無限大 [Trinity Infinity]M&A (2016)atmospheric, soothing, nocturnal, mysterious, sampling starts off fine enough but the sample is just too busy for my liking and im honestly not into the choral half. its cool and different i guess but it just doesnt sound good? 2.5 | |
t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者ゲートウェイ [Gateway] (2014)calm, peaceful, ethereal, melodic, atmospheric another album ive owned for about a decade now that ive never heard all of. first track is still peak though, easily one of the best vw tracks oat. the rest is pretty classicwave boring """muzak""" (fucing hate that term) wave whatever i dont care about it at all does nothing for me. after listening to this i dreamt that i was stuck in a 569-hour time loop and i was only allowed to listen to one telepath album the entire time. i was really upset about that, but i dont remember much else. 2.5 | |
DiabarhaCold (2025)Deathstep, Dark Ambient, Noise cold, anxious, dark, disturbing, mental health might just be his best? at least its his most well crafted; his production has improved massively and he has a super unique approach to dance music because hes using sound design derived from extratone and speedcore which is super cool. this leads to fucking ridiculous extratone glitch tracks and the outstanding speed-deathstep track 2. he incorporates a lot of styles though, i dont think the tags really reflect that, which makes it a pretty engaging listen despite its length. i think it does kind of fall off in the last third as he moves further away from the ultra extreme electronic into more accessible territory but nonetheless its still gud business. great stuff 3.5 | |
明日はすべてが変わる日で (2017)Eternal Night Vision Dream 2284 エターナル夜中幻夢 |2284|back in highschool when i was only listening to acid medical and my osu! library i came into contact with a bandcamp user who was interested in the same music and we both had this album in our collections. they had this track uploaded with some looping gif of snow (im guessing from an anime) onto their youtube, which i think i found through their tumblr that i found through investigative google searching. we didnt talk a lot other than small talk greetings and stuff. they gifted me an abum once, i think it was a renard album. one day, i cant remember how, i found them on instagram; they were running a feeder fetish / obesity fetish page and i could never find their personal account. shortly after this they disappeared from the internet and i havent heard from them or found them again since. on early-dark chilly days like today when im in the right mood to listen this again im brought back to that gif and the weird memories i have. thanks valyri | |
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya getting back into watching some anime. in my freetime. a buddy is tapped in rn so i decided to cuz ive heard lots of hype and its also mathematically significant which is appealing. not at all what i was expecting i thought this was just like a weird slice of life which i guess it is but its actually not at all. no spoilers tho. i like nagato shes chill. the other girl is annoying though i hate those kinds of characters. as humorous as i expected which is awesome. curious to see how season 2 happens 3.5 | |
MetrorrhagiaFetal Resorption (2017) [EP]last one today before i go to work. more traditional sounding with sloppier live drumming. its mindless and a little fun. thank you fogle 3 | |
Body CarveGuts in Red Plastic (2018)not sure why shave didnt like this one as muh. first side is really fun exciting and second combines more static approach + metal pipe massacre. nice thing about lofi is you can never stop turning it up. PLAY LOUD! 3.5 | |
Deathpile and WhorebutcherDeathpile and Whorebutcher (2002)misanthropic, vulgar, sexual, violence, hateful deathpiles tracks are characteristically LOUD and huge and classic pe hateful and haaaarsh. even though his second side falls off whorebutcher more than makes up for it with his own brand of slow menacing lethal power harsh. exciting listen. PLAY LOUD! 3.5 | |
Berlin HorseTar Pit (2022)lush, dense, meditative feels more like precipitation than bubbling liquid. perfect quiet mixing means you can turn it up forever. 1>2 3.5 | |
Waves Crashing Piano ChordsChildhood (2014) [EP]sampling, minimalistic, noisy feedback tornado. nice ive heard this fucking child killer interview like 4 times on separate releases now 3 | |
Vomir / MixturizerVomir / Mixturizer (2009)vomir side is holy ducking crunch perfection i needed this mix side is nice drone + wall (not drone wall?) its slow i like it 3.5 | |
Taint / Skin Crime / SicknessBehind the Smile (2001)Harsh Noise, Power Electronics taint tracks are great texturally. skin crime track is a bit too stationary for my liking. sickness brings it home with some excellent cut up that goes on just a bit too long. overall very hateful 3 | |
SkrillexHit Me Where It Hurts x (2025) [EP]punchy, energetic, nocturnal, party, manic brostep tracks are crazy of course. i fw the hardgroove shit its fun and very detailed sound design even if it doesnt stick with me. feels like different iterations of the same track which is cool 3 | |
Twodeadsluts Onegoodfuck / Intestinal DisgorgeTwodeadsluts Onegoodfuck / Intestinal Disgorge (2005) [EP]its beautiful that bandcamp shitty assnoise existed many years before bandcamp was even around 🥹 2 | |
S O A R E R自由にしてくれ (2019)calm, sampling ok i know i was dumpin on classicwave but i honestly fw this bc of the phasing. its cheap and a little repetitive but its psychedelic and hypnotic. wish the samples were a biiit better 3 | |
沙漠里的沙子晚上很温暖Tomorrow, 2096 (2019)Vaporwave, Field Recordings, Slushwave, Progressive Electronic nocturnal, ethereal, calm, atmospheric, instrumental kind of expected more from this, or maybe less from it? way more active tjan i would like... but also doesng stick at all. wallpaper music. and is not atmospherix. clehf we wksof ua 2.5 | |
Lindsheaven Virtual Plaza超越愛 [Chyō etsu ai] (2015)Downtempo, Barber Beats, Smooth Jazz, Synth Funk hypnotic, lush, atmospheric, ethereal, sampling yeaaaahhh i dont really care at all about this. calls back to og vapor stuff of slowed down japanese jazz-y pop and synth funk stuff which i get why people like but i just find it so uninteresting. i know theres more happening under the hood here but that doesnt really change the impression i get. rip tho 2.5 | |
泰合志恒 [Taihe Zhiheng]神秘的情人 [Mysterious Lover] (2015)aquatic, atmospheric, soothing, peaceful, meditative nice relaxing stuff. great ambient feelings but it kinda is nowhere near as good as binary ocean (unrelated but its relevant for me right now). a slushy highlight for sure but not one ill be coming back to 3 | |
bliss3threeI'm Gonna Miss You (2021)noisy, sampling, psychedelic, ethereal, surreal better than i was expecting tbh. i actually totally agree with christhatdoesntstop about vaporwave using songs as textures and this kinda pushes that even further. a few tracks on the back half were actually pretty good. good title 3 | |
SangamYou Forget This (2016)lonely, rain, repetitive, melancholic, futuristic wow so good. rly locked in and consistent. each track so lush and detailed but theyre all connected by the thread of a shared universe. sangam gets a lot of ideas out and they usually stick. very exciting stuff, peep it evael 3.5 | |
目的地 [The Destination]p l e a s e s t a n d b y . . . (2017) [Single]boring default slush type movement. what you might come up with the very first time you attempt something in this style. i also just did the frankenstein entry if u scroll down a little youll see it 2.5 | |
TristSnění (2007) [EP]raw, repetitive, atmospheric, depressive, dissonant store im working at just had its grand opening today and my legs are fucking pooped. it lowkey wasnt as bad as i expected tho. probably gonna suck next week for thanksgiving. little break from the slutch for a gald snipe. i think ill always want more from dsbm drumming but this is really comfy and cathartic. vocals are kinda crazy and awesome. i may come around to it 3 | |
ポリフォニーコネクション [Connection] (2016)very obnoxiously paulstretched stuff and you add some reverb to help smooth it out but its like 3d printing you can always see the damn lines 2.5 | |
トリニティー無限大 [Trinity Infinity]二二二七 [2227] (2015)instrumental, sensual, calm, sampling, atmospheric i honestly am more inclined to the instrumental sections, the r&b vocals kind of detract from the lush creaminess (wtf.. i meant dreaminess 🤦♀️). i also like track 1 more 🤷♀️ 3 | |
MindSpring MemoriesThe Binary Ocean (2017)aquatic, meditative, atmospheric, repetitive, mellow slushwavember continues! was a bit hesitant with the runtime but holy smoly this is great. buge transcending journey vibes; all encompassing stuff, spacious but meticulous in a way that elevates it way beyond its peers. everyone hating on the third second but its highkey so fucking good and has some of the best tracks here. i like to think of it as 3 discs. they should press it in that format... ...i should press it in hat format... wtf is hat format?! 3.5 | |
浮世 [Ukiyo]楽園への入り口 [Gateway to Paradise] (2025)its raining like torrential downpour and flooding everywhere so you know its slushwave drive home. relaxing. that and i like bladee in the rain too. surprisingly really good. its straightforward and easy to get into. its cool that the samples have been turned into this like weird space-y ambience. the highlight is 3 though with the deep huge drums. very good relaxation. i may listen to bonus track later 3.5 fuck it | |
InfesterEmergency Villus Gastro-colonic Biopsy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (2014)nice little grinding grind. samples die 3 | |
Hate ForestAgainst All Odds (2025)hateful, aggressive, war, repetitive, cold finished my physics homeworm pretty dense and mostly homogenous. its good if you need to just stop thinking for half an hour. very well performed. 3 | |
虚拟梦想广场一见钟情 [Yi jian zhong qing] (2015)Neoclassical New Age, Space Ambient atmospheric, lush, ethereal, soothing, sampling holy moly and a bowl of cereal this is bawesome. instantly transported into a new dimension as soon as it starts up. totally mesmerizing stuff. never lets up. thanks evael 3.5 | |
VVUPVVON (2025) [EP]female vocalist, party, rhythmic, melodic therapy was okay today. lots of breathing. unexpected but sure whatever. i still dont love house party but im coming around to it in a way; verse vocals are nice and there lots of remix potential here for sure. 4 life is nicer than i remember as well. its nothing standout, though. still hate giddy boy though. the best tracks tho are 2 and 3. very polished and smooth. awesome stuff they carry hard 3 | |
Vothana"Trong tay thần chết" -Demo X- (2008) [Additional release]Atmospheric Black Metal, Nhạc đỏ lo-fi, raw, melancholic, dense, noisy finally listening after shave recd it liek 100 days ago yeah i definitely get why people fw this dudes stuff hes like really locked in in terms of sound and writing. also playing. every track has good riffs and theres no holding back. could do without the samples they sound silly but whatever. 3.5 | |
Frankenstein (2025)movie nigjt with my girlfriend snd her friends long day had to do a lot of stupid and then went to find this dog was potentially adopting but then its actually not necessary so we didnt. yep. got fuzzys tacos tho yum yeah movies im honestly over dine in theatres i think it can be good experience but its way too much money and is usually not that good of an experience. the popcorn tasted really good though ill give them that. kind of has the oppenheimer problem where its like an extended trailer for 2/3rds of it. the monsters half was appropriately slower though. lots of themes to unpack but thats more of a shelley thing than a del toro thing (i imagine). isaac's acting kinda pmo hes just doing a lot but ig thats his character idk. i actually fw del toros gore in this even if its kind of soft. theres a scene where spoiler: click to read which was kinda jaw dropping lol. bit of a weak ending but its wholesome and forgiveness. i like mia goths character 3 | |
A Mephitic Way to Say FarewellFor Icarus; a Terrible Requisition (2025)interesting. i wish the textures werent so plain but this is pretty solid gorewall stuff. second trakc is quite nice with the nature recordings though. hardly feels like gore. 3 | |

Beggin for Oxys / VomitomaVomitoma \ Beggin for Oxys (2018) [EP]raaaaggghhh not that i expect a lot from him but vomitoma side is unusually weak here. very boring oxys raises score to positive. fun live noisecore/grind. great drums make it exciting. i kind of like teh cover 3 | |

Glaciology良い夢を (2018)nocturnal, psychedelic, urban more classic sounding stuff but way more active than i was expecting. big drums. last track is the nicest. second overstays its welcome a bit 3 | |
Diskette ParkDeepfall (2020)Dark Ambient, Vaporwave, Dreampunk Drone, Field Recordings, Vapornoise ominous, nocturnal, dark, scary, surreal wamwmwmamwmamwmamwa evael rec not really what i was expecting pretty cool like horror vapor stuff. the knocking was creepy, but i get light-er vibes from this as opposed to evil darkness. more like sound collage at times. reminds me a bit of Stuck (talk about DARK!) 3 | |
メディカル [Medical]Vicodin Hydrocodone (2015) [EP]Field Recordings, Modern Classical, Drone melancholic, lonely, lethargic, soft, rain highschool classic. 20mg was always on the radar back in the day. ive never overdosed (or dosed honestly) in my life and i dont know what rehabilitation and being hospitalized like so its weird that i used to love listening to music about that (this one and an emotion x ep). its relaxing and simplistic. the subtle touches elevate it beyond just samples although i cant ignore how audaciously lazy this is. knowing 2047 these are all samples of the same youtube channel with very (VERY) little treatment. oh well. the packaging is what we're hear for. 3 | |
█▄▀█▄██▀█▓▓Glitterdust EP (2011) [EP]i dont even know what to rate it really because objectively this has to be the worst most nothing noise music ive ever heard but im also impressed and respect it for being so ah that i wasnt even upset about listening to it (so can it really be bad?) 2.5 | |
Skin CrimeMonster: Case History #9 (1997) [EP]shave is right. track 2 is the best. fits in decently with the rest of the series so far: slow and sinister bite-size noise. 3 | |
b e g o t t e n 自杀(phantom psalms) - 幻影诗篇 (2018)depressive, sampling, nocturnal, dark, cold couldnt really tell you what compelled me to buy this dudes albums when i was 16 i dont really get it being dark i mean i guess it is but like it doesnt feel evil or haunting or anything like that to me. its really just boring. over too soon? i guess idk do i even want more of this 2.5 | |
人形 [Doll]sick (2020)Vapor, Neoclassical New Age, Impressionism, Drone health a lot more engaging and atmospheric than their other release. i think the cover is cute evael 3 | |
鬱 [Depressed]・薔薇綺麗躊躇網羅就職痙攣蝋燭鷹麟爨齉馕龘爨齉龘・ (Pink Album) (2020) [Compilation]lonely, sparse, lo-fi, urban, lethargic ememmeeehhhhh doesnt rly do anything for me. individual microscopic worlds on their own are interesting but in any kind of longer capacity it just doesnt rly work for me. idk. just feels like i cant extract anything from the sogs 2.5 | |
t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者星間性交 [Interstellar Intercourse] (2015)nocturnal, atmospheric, soothing, sampling, repetitive erm log but i did a limillion hours of driving so it was okay very good mood pieces though i would prefer maybe more concise tracklist. last two are kino though. could go for relistenjng magbe 3 | |
Glaciology桟橋で一人で (2021)evael snipe first half is really nice contemplative and slow. the last track really didnt need to be 40 minutes long 🥲 kind of kills it for me but its nice i guess 3 | |
Rain Forest将来の出納係 (2018) [EP]hellooo its fucking novapormber. novapeber. vaporvembef. whatever. in the mood so will listen to many for fun fitting to start off with acid medical reruns. this one i never actuallg listened to when i was into them. i think i only heard their full length. its really calm and serene though. a bit too short i think but leaves a fond impressjon. maybe i will raise 3 | |
Ark PatrolAfterlife (Ark Patrol Remix) (2015) [Single]female vocalist its just honestly so fucking vibes great melodies and mood. its funny how low qual it kinda sounds like just not rly mixed or loud or anything 3.5 | |
Dead Body LoveBacteria (1995) [Single]hello harsh cute small release great sound as always but maybe not as engaging as id like listened to bacteria 2 like 2 years ago dont remember anything relistened some after this and thought it was nice 3 | |
CavitnakTools (2025) [EP]yeah whatever two minutes of instrumental rage type idc 2.5 | |
Cinderfella (1960)celebrating the moots birthday everyone wish shave a happy birthday🥳 he just turned 28 we got steak dinner and then watched this. my first jerry lewis. its crazy how much of the humor lands for me. also how slow this is. like genuinely slow cinema, the fucking dinner table scene is ridiculous. hes also a great dancer genuinely. you just cant not have fun. its like hella anti woke which was weird but i dont really care 3.5 too much fun | |
f5veSequence 01.5 (Dreaming of the 2nd 1st Impact - Consequences of Fate Redux) (2025)Bubblegum Bass, Dance-Pop, Trap [EDM] female vocalist, playful, quirky, futuristic, energetic all the disc 1 bonus tracks are really good. not very flexing production or quirky music but just good straightforward pop. love remixes are mostly cute or okay. magic clock is dope like old school melodic dubstep, firetruck is a lot better than the original, jump is fun, wish is nice, and the fav fav is hannah diamonds snowman which has both a good verse from hd and revamps the instrumental in a positive way. why are they disbanding yall. 3 | |
Purgatory BlightA Pact With Death (2021)yerp. played a show. played an ALBUM RELEASE SHOW which you can listen to It's About as Hard as It Gets and it was mostly good. was really anxious leading up because we were doing some last minute cds and the booklets we wanted didnt even arrive until dead ass 9 hours before the show, but we ended up selling 14 (15 now that they are on bandcamp!) and some shirts. we got a sizeable turnout and lots of people were happy with our music which felt nice. i dropped a stick, one guitarist broke the same string twice on two different guitars, the other guitarist needed an emergency quarter inch transplant and some drunk 40 year old woman would not shut up during our set. otherwise it was dope and i will remember it forever. our longest set too cuz we played the whole album. we had My Lice open for us. free improv drum+violin but this time the drummer had a contact mic that he was performjng with. lots of really cool sounds he was able to get from resonating drums and stuff. Memoria second. listened to their ep a while ago but i felt it did not adequately prepare me for how heavy sounding they were. structurally normal screamo stuff but the tone felt like sludge metal it was bonks. also a set where the 40 year old woman would not shut up, sorry yall. we had Daniel Ryan close up shop for us - he actually started his set the second we finished ours so there was no dead air. really amazing set from him dare i say his best to date. very different approach than what im used to, a lot more languid with much less physical action or tension. really cool how he was playing with samples too. overall a really good night. i love my friends always wrap up the show nights with wall and whataburger. about what i was expecting from a gog project: very raw and living. not a lot of movement in these though, a bit closer to "trve" wall. the first and second textures dont give me too much but that last track is heavenly. like a pillow. such a bad ass cover 3 |
Skin CrimeSkin Crime (1997)more filthy nastiness. neutral theming. some higher frequency abuse. very good 3.5 | |
886VGI (2021)scary, raw, aggressive, mechanical, noisy little cut up for the day. its cool but it feels like it doesnt go anywhere or reach its potential. some good moments and nice production though. i feel like we can successfully submit cut up noise as a genre on rym 3 | |
DepressionUntitled (2019) [Single]depression. nuff said 2.5 | |
Dead Body LoveGrace (1997) [Single]Harsh Noise, Power Electronics completely hypnotic and mean. just beating it into you. i love his sound a lot 3.5 | |
Hanged Mans OrgasmFrenzy - Case History #1 (1997) [Single]actually pretty cool thinking back on it. really intimate and dark. not at all what i was expecting from the skin crime universe. haunting. i may come around to it 3 | |
Akufen01 / 02 (1999) [EP]hypnotic, rhythmic, anxious, sampling, nocturnal first track is a bit hollow and doesnt do much for me, but the second one i enjoyed a good bit. hypnotic triplet groove and its got these really fun laser percussive sound effects in the last leg. 3 | |
kasanePermaghouled (2025)piercing, dissonant, chaotic, dense, noisy digital blown out snail pace. nice. i like aesthetic 3 | |
Skin CrimeEyestrain (1995)noisy reeeeaally gross and sleazy. feels like handling something covered in slime. its actually a lot weaker in sound than something like whorebutcher but i love how nasty it feels. ending is kind of cool tbh 3.5 | |
JunkoVocal Studies #19 (2022) [EP]a cappella, minimalistic its kind of cute just junko blasting her voice a bunch 3.5 | |
InfesterA Fitting End to the Present Pathological Practices: The Final Pathologist's Report (2012)too fucking bad ass dude. he was so locked in. pummeling and ripping. bring this sound back bob 3.5 | |
anteaterBlank Again (2025)lush, minimalistic, instrumental calm and distant. about 10 minutes into this my girlfriend said "do you hear that? what is that noise? it sounds beautiful..." (she was unaware i was playing anything) 3 | |
Akufen03 / 04 / 05 (2000) [EP]rhythmic fucking dope. grooving and i love the cold glitching flourishes. first time inside of a micro house... 3.5 | |
人形 [Doll]angel (2020)evael snipe nice low stakes distant ambient. acid medical feeling. confused by life 3 | |
CuntsnifferMeant To Be (2025) [Single]cute little bitpop stuff. nice vocals. fun 3 | |
Small HoursPulse (2011) [EP]avant-garde, atonal, hypnotic, instrumental, minimalistic gorgeous nothing worlds between stitches in the fabric kms for not listening sooner 3.5 | |
TaintHarmed Live 2000 (2001)easily some of my favorite pe ever. totally depraved slicing feedback noise and keiths gross sewer murder vocal deliveries. its cool how sometimes theyre processed and other times its like hes right up against you yelling in your ear. could honestly do without the 3+ minute long samples but theyre justified i guess (as much as you can). last track blew my mind 3.5 | |
The New BoyfriendsLive and Dangerous (2025)hello new harsh nice little recording. sounds fun. but the quality i wish was better i know its live so thats not easy but yeah. good feedback 3 | |
Digital MystikzEssential Mix (2013) [DJ Mix]little impulse while i write entries kinda wanted more from it its very "electronic", like not a lot of deep and dark atmosphere step stuff its more flashy without meat tho still some good moments and the mix is well crafted 3 | |
Decomposing SerenityPlease Don't Die Yet....I'm Not Done (2002)humorous dead ass the best cover + title of all time how were they allowed to do that and then make it boregrind but actually the first half is really fun kinda obtuse programmjng and vocals and the digital artifacting is so cool sounding when it explodes through second half tanks this just silly boring dont care covers blah blah whatever. i recognized sweet leaf tho 3 | |
Skin CrimeWhorebutcher (1996)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise Wall really really really painful. like infinite death and sexual annihilation the panning work is so crazy. i wonder if these versions on bandcamp are remasters or if thats dead ass how good the cassette sounded. so massive. 2>1 beautiful inspiring physicals 3.5 for now | |
FFHNadia (2006) [EP]Death Industrial, Dark Ambient unfortunately so fucking boring. i actually kinda liked the first track being so quiet and unsettling. 2.5 | |
ValvanSerenade for Dead Kittens (2017)perfect. raw. soft. 3.5 | |
BurzumBurzum (1992)raw, male vocalist, lo-fi, ominous, cold cover is so chills... kinda dont care at all about his writing or the music but its vibes i guess. thrash influence. second half saves it from 2.5 3 | |
ITZYTunnel Vision (2025) [EP]Pop Rap, Trap [EDM], Dance-Pop, House punchy, female vocalist, mechanical, energetic, anthemic oooh and you know itzy had to drop to celebrate too had a really good feeling going in and this does not disappoint. i think this is the first time theyve done an intro track? its cool. industrial. title track is also cool and swag, very fun stuff, and dyt is a nice knife party nod. but what really seels this shit for me is the last half. lots of tasteful choices, nocturne is smooth as butter, flicker is some high quality 2step, and man the last track is so fucking awesome. aespa who. experimental highk. overall super consistent and easily their best effort in years. 3.5 | |
KPop Demon Hunters (2025)after the opera we went to olive garden cuz i wanted lasagna and chicken gnocchi soup. yumminess gf has been really wanting me to watch this cuz she saw it with her niece so i was like yeah why not i want to. chill out. i like the animation style i didnt at first but its actually pretty cute. i dont like soda pop but im coming around to golden its got a pretty good chorus. one of my moots said this is on par with i saw the tv glow levels of bad message but i dont really agree. to me its seems like its really about how we cant fight hate with hate. you have to love everyone, especially yourself... i started playing osu again but im only playing ctb because my wrists would hurt too much playing mania or standard (also dont want to set up the tablet) and i cant read taiko. its fun easy on the wrists and i can still engage with my fav maps and tracks na | |
Dialogue of the Carmelites hello, its my birthday (ostensibly, im actually writing this two days late... oops...) and we are celebrating. breakfast with family was yummy and mom got me some vinyls that ive never heard before but shes very sweet for that and stepdad gave me neat little pokemon anatomy fan book that ill skim through in the future. the main event today was the opera! maximo friend gave me the idea to go so we got tickets (kinda poor seats off to the side and fifth floor up but its okay) cuz this was conveniently playing on my bday! first time ive ever sat through an opera and i had a pretty good time. i cant discern really how well it was directed/played since i have no reference point... but i really dug the entire casts vocals and the band. visually really exciting too lots of superb blocking and set design ideas; love how they play with lights and shadows in every act. even though english "subtitles" were available i still kinda had a hard time following the narrative super closely. i think the nature of opera means the storytelling happens really slowly so its harder for me to stay on top of it you know. i think it was also easy to get distracted by the band and vocal performances, i was also a bit tired towards the end (shits like 3 hours...). great ending though. my gf was hella locked in tho she used to do theater in high school so i think this really resonated with her. definitely not the last time we'll be at the opera! | |
Benny Ill vs DJ Dinesh / MarkoneNew York / Rage (2003) [Single]rhythmic dubstep day today just relistening to some singles n stuff. yt rec i listened on my lunch break. new york im not crazy on its chill good vibes but rage is the best easily. dark and menacing 3 | |
ValvanCommunication of Funeral Plans (2017)deserves a spot in the conversation about layer work in wall noise. i've underestimated you once again valvan, i wont make that mistake anymore. 3.5 | |
Spring of LifeSpring of Life (2020) [EP]very nice. from very first second it had my attention. obtuse in a great way 3.5 | |
ThrombocytopenicpsoriasisIntraductal Renal Cell Carcinoma Surgical Procedures of Facial Debridement of Faciocytoma Prior to Gangrene of Anatomical Polyendocrinopathy of Pustular Leukocyte (2018) [Additional release]kinf of wish the sample wasnt 18 years long but the gore is very good. ahead of its time maybe super digital processed weird 3.5 | |
Ruido de Magia / Hana HarunaRuido De Magia / Hana Haruna (2020)hh side is uncomfortable in a bad way. gross harsh rdm side makes it okay though very soft like a couch 3 | |
LawrenciumNo Important (2006)noisy, mechanical, chaotic, infernal, raw cool that it pushes extratone way far out from its hardcore roots (its already undanceable but think like diabarha) and makes it into this lumpy noise mush. i couldnt find parking to this and i was crashing out 3 | |
infect this pink server!Zillion Tendrils Burst Out. Our Hearts Bleed Out. We Reach Out for Sempiternity. (2019)aquarium filtered light 3.5 | |
Alison Wonderland, Erick the Architect, Quix & MembaPSYCHO (2025) [Single]female vocalist, male vocalist forgot about her. i wasnt sure if i should just listen to psyucho or the others since their inclusion is rly just a spotify thing not like a purposeful decision made by artists but i just listened to all of them anyway seems like shes tapped more into the skrillex type post hybrid trap festival sound which is cool to hear, even if it does sound like a worse version of skrillex. not crazy ab iwannaliveinadream but theres still nice production elements to appreciate. i will peep the album when its out 3 | |
Tinsman Road (2025)little late night movie time with the broski you know whats up and no one else in the theatre we were such mischiefs. no really tho i cannot stop coughing thank god no one else was there i wouldve been kicked out no shot very interesting and honestly way slower and more meditative than i was expecting. grief inhabits spaces and people. we are the ghosts we believe in. there are thoughts that need more time. banfitch's camerawork is still top notch here. preoccupation with nature. but also with lights... i dont think it justifies its length in the same way outwaters does, but who knows maybe ill come around to it. In the vocabulary of the Russian Formalists the film has one сюжет, but two фабюлы. spoiler: click to read. i like that 3.5 | |
Barely AliveWe Are Barely Alive (The Remixes) (2016)bit of a mixed bag; def not on par with the run of originals but there are still gems in here (zombie hunter, pooyoso, rough and rugged) that make it worth it. seriouisly that rough and rugged remix is crazy 3 | |
ILLIT비밀찾기 [Secret Quest] (2025) [Single]Television Music, K-Pop, Pop Rock bittersweet, adolescence, female vocalist, rhythmic, melodic i dont even care about pokemon like that anymore but i saw this and clicked because that cover is cute its sunny and fun i had agood time :D 3 | |
baby sugar glidersorry if this comes off as clingy but can we hang out, like, forever? (2025)lovely tapping and cracking. we can hang out for as long as you want little sugar glider 3.5 | |
Virtual Riot x Barely AliveHead to Head Vol. 2 (2021) [EP]energetic ROUND 1: HEAD TO HEAD CATEGORY Virtual Riot - Show Up VIP: like all vr songs its got competent sound design and fine writing, he knows what hes doing, but its characteristically hollow and lacking any kind of real hooks for me. Barely Alive - Weeble Wobble VIP: definitely the winner of this round. more exciting drops even if its still just a run of the mill briddim exercise. ROUND 2: TEAM EXERCISES AND SYNERGY Basement Dwellers: this one sees ba and vr working together directly. not sure how they split up the workload if each drop is one artist or they did both together but either way it ends up being just another briddim track. i suppose the more the merrier so it is a step up from both of the first two tracks (but not by too much) Rivals (Virtual Riot VIP): this one is about synergy, how well vr can work with the ba foundation/framework. i have to say this might be my fav track from the bunch, but thats cuz it lowkey lets some early sounding ba style shine through and i like that. its also not over-sound-designed modern briddim kinda stuff which helps. WINNER: fuck virtual riot barely alive wins because i said so 3 | |
FKYTranquiloutek (2001)rhythmic, repetitive, sampling, energetic, instrumental anopther one that starts a bit boring but eases itself as it goes. ragga influence stuff. neat 3 | |
Crystal DistortionThe Crystal Radio Show (2003)FIRST! kinda boring at first but you turn it up enough and let it chill with you its dope. 3 | |
CuntsnifferDisconnected (2025) [EP]gorgeous powerful classic sounding bro stuff. unexpected but so very welcomed 3.5 | |

Unknown Dimension: The Story of Paranormal Activity i actually wanted to watch the supercut of the first three and then watch this but i didnt have time bleh oh well lovely little watch its interesting look into how movies like this can even get made and its crazy how it even worked at all given all the variables and obstacles. i like how honest they are about some of these really sucking. comfy na | |
xaviersobasedHalloween Might Jus Be My Fav Holiday FR (2022) [EP]male vocalist xav, i think i just might have to agree with you. i love this shit. good early xav stuff lots of experimenting and great energy. over too soon 3.5 | |
PrurientNoise for Halloween Night (2019)Horror Synth, Dark Ambient, Halloween Music Halloween, nocturnal, atmospheric, autumn, instrumental this is highkey the best prurient synth album and this is the only reason he should ever pick up synths again. some of the melodies are honestly pretty fun and he incorporates some industrial sounds really well. lovely stuff 3 | |
AFIAll Hallow's E.P. (1999) [EP]Hardcore Punk, Horror Punk, Halloween Music, Melodic Hardcore Halloween, energetic, autumn, male vocalist, nocturnal yep pretty fun doesnt connect with me too hard but its very solid punk stuff. very good production i expected this to be way shittier. gang vocals 3 | |
Kaptain CadillacThe Juke Chainsaw Massacre II Halloween Edition (2009) [DJ Mix]sick out of my mind laying on the couch listening to this in safari and browsing the origami board on 4chan fun stuff. silly samples. AHH! 3 | |
Trippie ReddSpooky Sounds (2020) [EP]Sound Effects, Halloween Music, Novelty scary, Halloween, ominous, repetitive, disturbing AHHHH! happy halloween! except im writing this so late! what did everyone dress up as kind of interesting and honestly these are pretty scary sounds i think. its crazy he does literally gore vocals on the first track. if they werent all 1 min long they would go into the halloween playlist 3 | |
Halloween II (2009)pain follows us everywhere and our fates are sealed at birth thanks to whoever uploaded the entire directors cut to youtube 4 | |
Mario JudahSad Metal (2025) [EP]breakup, sad, love, atmospheric copy and paste my entry from never again. cool hes experimenting again with his voice, just wish the beats werent so plain 3 | |
CelerYou and I Can't Ever Change (2025)peaceful, mellow, soft, instrumental, ethereal yeeesh finally got around to finishing this. just cuz of length rly. listened to each track in isolated sittings while reading or working. very luscious and meditative stuff, if you like the original (or celer / ambient in general) this is like the new holy grail 3.5 | |
The Cherry PointRain Turns to Blood 1987 (2003) [EP]yea im not sure why shave doesn't like this that much its good higher tier tcp. love the micro songs format and this really rips in the second half. slow start but never lets down on intensity and then it frickin *stabs u* like 1000 times 3.5 | |
Barely AliveWe Are Barely Alive (2015)Brostep, Electronic Dance Music party, heavy, eclectic, energetic, rhythmic really awesome and bad ass. there was a reason everyone was meatriding them so hard back in the day bc they were the fucking leaders of bass music for a few years there. really locked in sound and they were one of the first imo to really blend trap with brostep in an exciting way. lots of variety and plenty of highlights, doesnt get boring until the garage track at the end. 3.5 | |
ian & gyoEmpty Suit (2023) [EP]Ambient Plugg, Experimental Hip Hop male vocalist, depressive, atmospheric, melancholic, family first track is really cool its crazy how ian can lock into that flow on that instrumental. the rest are also technically impressive from that perspective but dont hit as hard. weird style to grow out of / start from in your career. 3 | |
A Vain AttemptLove is Like Suicide (2007)Mall Screamo, Melodic Metalcore Post-Hardcore, Melodic Metalcore breakup, romantic, male vocalist, sentimental, love its endearing ❤️🩹 3 | |
orteusSurgery (2025) [Mixtape]Digicore, Experimental Hip Hop Rage, Electronic Dance Music, Glitch Pop, Plugg futuristic, nonbinary vocalist, female vocalist, noisy, dense meh. its fine listening but it kind of feels like im just tuning into a digicore instrumental playlist or smth. feels like theres no overarching presence on these songs and then sometimes a feature happens. cute cover 2.5 | |
Mario JudahNever Again (2025) [Single]breakup, male vocalist, anthemic, repetitive, bittersweet its catchy. kind of nice to see him coming back to this concept but with a different vocal style. i think his weakest link still is his beats, he needs to find ones that synergize well with his vocals like on Die Very Rough 3 | |
CuntsnifferAir Lock Boy (2025) [Single]a little insstrumental to tie us over until the next big one. its fine 3 | |
The DeepLucky Star (2025) [Single]Electropop, K-Pop, Dance-Pop, Electro House Bubblegum Bass, Eurodance, Future House, Euro House female vocalist, sampling, party so cute. sugary! not her best in this style but its fun i like the instrumental 3 | |
Bloody Anal Yeast InfectionBathed in Gore (2003)great covar very mid range sounding buzzing okay 3 | |
S. PakhomovCherries in the Snow (2018)as always very lovely. feels very living. lots of layering. winter is coming 3.5 | |
Halloween Ends (2022)come and kill me with fire and acid but i actually thought this one was pretty cool. might have something to do with watching every single halloween in like 3 days but i really appreciated this being a totally different formula and story than everything preceding it. is it kind of dumb? yeah i guess. Ends' last shot is basically michael as an unkillable machine, so it seems kind of odd that he had to go into hiding and become weaker? i think its kind of nice this is also more of a drama. idk its just different which i respect. 3 | |
DurgaDurga (2001) [EP]Emoviolence, Screamo, Post-Hardcore synth sass stuff. its cool. first synth line has a lot of emotions but they dont do much with it. 3 | |
Influx1.6K Followers EP (2015) [EP]awesome concept for an ep i thought a lot about metal meets edm. the drumming doesnt immediately strike you as "metal" derived until you realize its more about the format: you really dont hear these kinds of drums in any electronic music (because the format of -step music takes inspiration from breakdown culture). kind of interesting. i wish there was more variation in the drops instead of just steady whole note pulses (track 3 does some dope djent inspired) but its a fine listen anyway. cool dark amb stuff 3 | |
VVUPHouse Party (2025) [Single]Pop Rap, Dance-Pop, House, K-Pop female vocalist, party, science fiction, rhythmic meh its nothing. cute cover. less rapping than i expected 2.5 | |
16bitChainsaw Calligraphy: The Remixes Part 1 (2010) [Single]i wasnt rly crazy ab the og but i saw jakes here and expected some heat sadly these are both disappointing. just kinda feels like background noise. not very exciting 2.5 | |
Traveling TrainerThe Sorrow of Umbreon (2020)instrumental chill pokedronebient. calm morning 3 | |
Halloween Kills (2021)lol. total mess. i guess its very graphic whicj is fun but this is easily the dumbest entry in the series so far (which is saying a lot...). apparently the whole myers mob thing was inspired by blm protests??? not sure how valid that is but if thats true thats crazy lol. 2 | |
Merzbow & John WieseFree Piano / Hypersomnia (2005) [Single]noisy, instrumental holy christ that first track is insane. literally top tier output from both. masterpiece second is them doing like academic harsh eai drone. dont care ab it that much 3.5 | |
Lee NobleNo Becoming (2011)Psychedelic Folk, Hypnagogic Pop, Tape Music, Drone lo-fi, atmospheric, lonely, dark, autumn first track is like peam autumn halloween crane shot sweater vibes love that. the rest are nice exercises in ambient/tape/folk/"hauntology" *chills* methodology 3 | |
Halloween (2018)always loved the poster for this one its been intriguing for that reason but its really not as sad drenching as that implies. i think its kind of just boring legacy sequel horror remember when this happened type spliff but i guess green treats his subject matter with a loving hand. very visceral indeed. the laurie bad ass stuff is confusing again. michael is kind of nice in this though. i can see why people like this because its like muh serious halloween sequel... but its that era of horrorslop thats just too overproduced to have any real characteristics... goodnight 2.5 | |
Halloween: Resurrection (2002)yeah im just watching 4 fucking movies tonight even though i work at 10 whatever the most disconnected from the timeline this almost stands in its own universe if it wasnt for the laurie intro. seriously so stupid they did that. its a fun setup and stuff but its just boring to me. nothing really convincing party horror stuff. i think its cool though that they focus on found footage type camera stuff but its under utilized for sure. weird that its like a digital-movie (like tje internet) halloween its cool that its the only one though. im surprised yhey havent remade this premise in the modern times. theyre making a video game tho 2.5 | |
Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)yeah whatever. the premise is pretty dumb so i didnt expect much. very basic structure teen movie opening isolation setup slasher chases/one by ones. i dont really understand the characterization of making laurie a bad ass who has been predicting this for decades. in this timeline she has only been attacked by him twice and they happened in the same night. the security guard was pretty awesome. fine ending i guess until you consider the sequel 2.5 | |
Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995)ooh yeah this is fucking awesome. easily second best myers timeline halloween movie. really fucked up stuff and michael is so robotic and cold in this its perfect. cult plot is kino and the fucking flashing sequences are absolutely insane. seriously the hospital kill sequence is like a top of all time kind of shit. also a very good ending i think, rip donald pleasance bro 3.5 | |
Cut Me and Shatter Your Mirror Into a Thousand StarsTrembling Faint Light Reflected in Your Eyes as I Look Into Them (2025)studying for linear algebra test. yall dont even know how fucking nervous i am for ts. fs gonna come up in therapy 😭 very very quiet. passive. its comforting though. i liekd the last track the most. great cover 3 | |
baby lumaMOCHI FESTIVAL (2025) [DJ Mix]Electronic Dance Music, Nightcore, Kawaii Future Bass Hardcore [EDM], Bubblegum Bass, Electropop, Denpa, Wonky, Future Bass little surprise postnightcore kawaii future bass mix. luma's gotta work on these transitions but the tracklist is fun and the speed of it kind of smooths those out anyway. theres moments where the speed slightly changes and it sounds like the weirdest detuning stuff ever thats cool, and also makes me think this was done live which i like. i was worried there would be some overlap with this mix and my own future bass mix but luckily there wasnt... 3 | |
Panic at the DiscoIt's Almost Halloween (2008) [Single]male vocalist, Halloween, party, playful, quirky its pretty stupid but its cute lol. i hate the do the trick or treat hook they look like theyre havingvfun tho 2.5 | |
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)basically just 4 but even more slasher teen and none of the awesome pain. obnoxiously boring at times. we get michael fake out 3 times in a row at one point just to watch a sex scene. jamie can act tho shes good, shame she didnt grow up with the series 2.5 | |
Ghost of GardeniaMithras Rides the Black Puma Out From Hades (2021)ghost of gardenia i think is easily a top waller for me. listening to this i drafted out (in my MIND) a thinkpiece about their music. i will not write any of that here but i will try to work on that yhis year maybe post it the overarching texture here is not that enjoyable but the format is never ending inspiration and beauty 3 | |
AhlzagailzehguhTrashed (2007) [EP]way more stuttering nasty than i expected. great stuff. trashed indeed 3.5 | |
bleoodRascal 51 (2025)Rage, Experimental Hip Hop, Hardcore Hip Hop Industrial Hip Hop, Digicore, Trap, Horrorcore gore, macabre, manic, noisy, male vocalist its sound experimental rage stuff but it just feels like a hollow imitation of his early work. not bad i guess but you cant help but compare 3 | |
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)we're pretty far removed at this point from the excellence of the original's atmosphere and mood, but there are still positive things to appreciate. its even more slasher than 2 was, and also a lot more teen than the first two. its very middling and honestly boring up until the third act where it really shows its hand. the chase sequence between michael and jamie is so sad feeling, and man that ending. chills. that ending alone puts this in the conversation of best halloween movies 3 | |
RienThe Blank Tape Recording (2020)similarly dark but more lonely. lonely as in lost. lost as in hopeless. hopeless as in gone. cold under a streetlamp. 3.5 | |
Sleep ColumnThrough Anguishes and Immersions (2012)very painful. dark. corners. texture is lush and you can really pick apart all the individual elements 3.5 | |
BurialRival Dealer (2013) [EP]Ambient, Breakbeat, Atmospheric Drum and Bass, Synthpop, Witch House LGBTQ, atmospheric, lonely, rain, nocturnal cool. very abstract but not quite as far as the ep following. some parts feel a bit jarring. the 4 on the floor section was crazy. great sound design as always. leaves little impact 3 | |
YvesSoft Error (2025) [EP]Alt-Pop, Dance-Pop, Contemporary R&B eclectic, female vocalist, playful, melodic, quirky hm. well first three are kinda what i expected. dance pop stuff with a handful of tasteful decisions. pp's part is nice. bratty's too. the last half is a bit weird. leans hard into electronic dominated territory and shes really experimenting with what an idol can "do" on a track. doesnt do much for me but i respect it and thats cool. the bonus track sucks and feels nothing like the rest of the release 3 | |
Ice Nine KillsJonathan (Acoustic Version) (2014) [Single]unfortunately, ink acoustic does not always equal goat. thought it would maybe be like a slight reworking of that track to fit in an acoustic setting more (think back to alesana's acoustic Apology) but no its really just the same song with the same delivery and the same writing as the original, except it has an acoustic guitar and hes not screaming. 2.5 | |
Halloween II (1981)i actually really liked this one, even though shave doesnt. nostalghia describes the feeling very fittingly, a kind of "dripping sadness". pain that leaks out like a broken pipe and slowly floods the entire town, turning long hallways, dark storage closets and quiet parking lots at night into tragedies and sleeping crime scenes. its true this really leans into the slasher tropes without being necessarily innovative (and at times straight up dumb) but i like that michael's fodder is a never ending ripple of death and fire just to reach one girl. that particular chase sequence is just totally drenched in pain it has lingered pretty intensely in my mind in the days following my watch. 3 for now | |
IZ*ONEVampire (2019) [Single]J-Pop, Dance-Pop, Halloween Music female vocalist yeah nothing im just halloweening atp gn yall 2.5 | |
Ice Nine KillsThe Silver Scream (2018)Alternative Metal, Symphonic Metal Halloween, concept album, male vocalist, aggressive, violence yeah its just like. if you listen to their second album, which is 8 years earlier, these songs are like the exact same bar the production and spencers vocal abilities. and corniness. after the burning it seems like they found a formula that worked and stuck to it. theres very little variation in overall structure and nothing really leaves an impact. there are a handful of djent-derivative breakdowns that are pretty awesome and they really lock in for the screams and harsh vocals in general. it sounds fine and plays well either way i guess also michael myers would literally never say that shit 3 | |
InfirmaryHaunter of the Dark (2008)chores at home massive low fi wall not huge on whats happening in the background but that makes it lowkey proto nu gen wall? 3.5 | |
AutechreAE_LIVE_NAGANO_300515 (2015)mechanical, avant-garde, atmospheric, aleatory, rhythmic drove an hour to work just to realize i wasnt scheduled so its time for an hour back home #fucklife and i cant even get compensated for that shit because i DONT WORK THAT DAY! but i like having the day off so its okay buge lasers 3.5 | |
TNTThe Album (2011)on my way to work #fuckdallas i think the concept of a "hardstyle album" just doesnt really work if youre gonna make it 12 isolated tracks and still keep it under 45 minutes. theres a reason its a singles/mixes genre. theres just no room for development and thus no time for atmosphere and stuff. these guys know their shit though i mean its the biggest names in golden era hardstyle so production and writing is very objectively good. euphoric stuff. couple samples make my skin curl but otherwise the theming is fine. 3 | |
MamyukkaTrick or Mamyukka! (2010) [Single]AND WE'RE PASSING PHYSICS II WITH AN A LETS GO cute and best cover evrrr first track is like default settings denpa halloween. second is very cute little mikuween track i want to remix 3 | |

Холостой выстрел [Holostoj Vystrel]Вампир [Vampir] (1991)halloween got me in such a good vibe lets listen to VAMPIRE! it sucks and recording quality doesnt help. very boring writing 2.5 | |
Halloween (1978)lots of strong feelings. weirdly quiet. glad i decided to revisit this, dont think i really had the toolkit to appreciate it my first time around. too many thoughts to write here. something you have to explain organically and temporally. trauma and destruction. ghosts haunting closets and sheds and backyards and violence that happens and blows away with the wind. michael has such a pure and evil essence in this. chilling halloween marathon begins 3.5 | |
Sinister 2 (2015)reduces the subtlies and creativities of the first one into a natural sequel formula that (understandably) just feels like going through the motions. decides what it wants on impulse. shrug. stupid fucking ending 2.5 |
AutechreAE_LIVE_ATHENS_050722 (2023)aquatic, technical, nocturnal, atmospheric, instrumental i listened to this while doing physics homework. we are learning about magnetic fields and stuff. i hate vector math so much dude. but i finished all of it. a lot of theory questions which is nice. apparently im passing with a low A which is crazy bc i hate physics and i suck at it (ostensibly present rocktime doesnt know this information yet this is a transmission from future rocktime) 3.5 | |
hoodie x james K065 (Scorpio) (2023) [Single]Ethereal Wave, Ambient Dub, Ambient ethereal, rhythmic, atmospheric, lush, sentimental first track is amazing vibes and chillout 1000 very relaxing hypnotic feels like atmo dnb but its not second is nothing 3 | |
CuntsnifferReconnecting (2025) [Single]very nice one of their best singles for sure. nintendocore done right as some are saying 3.5 | |
NimdaRetaliate EP (2023) [EP]sampling, dark, aggressive, energetic, dense great stuff. heavy ah hell. really dug the opener and title tracks. despite gross package it builds good atmosphere 3.5 | |
Acrid Infestation / Severe Opioid-Induced Faecal ImpactionAcrid Infestation / Severe Opioid-Induced Faecal Impaction (2022) [EP]wow we are behind on this diary huh ai side is disappointing as expected but its solid programmed gore stuff. soifi side is... very curious. really unique approach to this style. not sure if i love it but its def cool. wonder where else it can go 3 | |
PunishmentPunishment // Sanity Lost (2023) [DJ Mix]new microgenre DSstep (like dsbm) lets push this yall but really though this is. dark and pun (we're close like that) gets a ton of great ideas and experiments in here. pushes shit so far and its makes me feel to be honest idk what the words are yet cover sucks though sorry dude 4 | |
c2xFear of Missing Out (2025) [Single]Lowend, Experimental Hip Hop, Wonky male vocalist more bro jerk. im digging that appropriation i wonder where the sound can be pushed. is it worth it for brojerk producers to stop sampling and learn to make their own 🤔 or maybe sebby did make his own for this idk not really interested in c2x rapping though sorry 3 | |
Arsonists Get All the GirlsDemo (2005) [EP]a bit unfocused and lacking any kind of impact but theres ideas that i like here and i think they work in the synth in interesting ways. if it was kitten it would be cream of the crop 3 | |
tionDestroy the Realist Mainstay (1997) [Additional release]the 4 minute runtime is appealing at first but... these guys just kind of suck at being emoviolence. makes sense when you realize they started out making synth punk lol. its just very contrived feeling i suppose. the instrumentation doesnt make up for any of that either. DOH DOH DOH DOH 2.5 | |
Shotgun99More Apples (2016) [Compilation]nothing much to say that hasnt already been said before about green. timeless music rebirth is actually really crazy and i like that it's more than just a "remaster" but not a full on remix - compromises halfway between both making it live up to the dopeness of the og while still being good enough to stand on its own. red is good in the beginning but just kinda loses steam too quickly to be considered the same league as green or rebirth 3.5 tho | |
WheatusTeenage Dirtbag (2000) [Single]male vocalist, androgynous vocals, humorous, alienation, lonely after that wild night i had to go straight to work. today was like the most tired ive ever felt in my life i was falling asleep in the break room watching reels. my coworker carries a jbl speaker on his hip at all times and when we get to work he blasts uzi trafis scott future thugga and chief keef. today he also played a ken carson song that was nice. i also got pulled over on the way to work for going 83 in a 70 and he didnt even give me a warning he just said slow down next time title track is like the best song ever and i love the story it teaches you that your own negative perception of the world has no bearing on the beautiful positive outcomes waiting for you if youre just patient and present. and the chorus is so awesome. and when she asks him out its like fuck yeah. my otp other two tracks are like wahtever guitar is catchy hes got a good ear for vocal melodies but i wish they were bigger and more explosive. or something. i dont know if i want to liksten to the album or not i dont tink so 3 | |
Slender Man (2018)went to friends house and saw friends and we carved some pumpkins and watched this in the background and then we ate pizza and played lights out which was fun i like hiding and not being caught. good feelings sometimes in this one. then bad ones. theres something about csa. if i made this i would lean more on that and less on the occult angle. but with all the forum usage and grooming stuff it kind of parallels some groups in the modern times...wish it did more forest stuff. i actually like how most of the movie looks. the editing towards the end is nice with the super fast cutting. i think no one cares about how sad it is but i guess its silly. the afterimage is much nicer than the actual experience. a found footage version would be cool but i actually dont mind the teen horror. 2.5 | |
AutechreAE_LIVE_KREMS_020515 (2015)aleatory, generative music, mechanical, atmospheric, avant-garde the techre doing homework the lasers are awesome we will grind ts before the end of thge year ?! since these are simular though i may use futurue entries to just discuss whatevver is life. this weekend i am scheduled two 2am-10am shifts and they are ruining my life because of sleep schedule BUT as im writing this im done with both and im so tired. but i like working when there is no customers. 3.5 | |
Exeter (2015)not the last nispel of the month! its fine party horror stuff that really leans into its absurdity and trashiness. very weird jittering pace. its interesting how it turns into a slasher i guess. the twist spoiler: click to read. 2.5 | |
CaӤdy SyлcLOLI DRUG EP (2021) [EP]rhythmic, raw, sampling, happy, playful yeah like normal lolicore flip style leaning a bit more into jcore influence. does not so much for me but its entertaining i suppose. self indulgent and packaging is vulnerable 3 | |

CRT麻痺Winter's Lament (2023)instrumental, melancholic, cold, winter, mellow nothing 2.5 | |
AutechreAE_LIVE_MILAN_010722 (2023)aquatic, technical, nocturnal, atmospheric, instrumental starting very different from the set i attended, but this was also 3 years ago, so i think the only connecting thread between this new "album" is just that they are beyond 2022 sprawling and trodding idm stuff that sometimes felt like their first live batch. its not as epic as those or the one i saw but you really cant go wrong with this style. theres a chunk in the middle that i really liked 3.5 | |
Autechre & The Hafler Trioæ³o & h³æ (2003) [EP]ominous, atmospheric, dissonant, suspenseful, instrumental going to FINALLY get around to the aeh3 stuff this week since its like the last bit of their studio material i havent rated. pretty interesting from a historical standpoint, nice to see them flirt with these ideas that will eventually blossom into really epic stuff, but this is quite restrained and safe. a few nice parts but little overall impact 3 | |
Sulfuric CauteryConsummate Extirpation (2025) [Single]yess so exciting they are doing a bdm album didnt know there would be a single too very fun isaacs writing shines a bit here and i love how full the guitar tone is. can already tell this will be an top aoty 3.5 | |
CuntsnifferIron Blood (2025) [EP]nothing mixing is interesting ig 2.5 | |
lots of writing to do... shave convinced me to go see them the other day really glad i did. the drive into austin wasnt even that bad tbh i like singing songs with bro and chopping it up. its the drive back that always gets you though. tsrono opened. honestly pretty boring contrived-feeling idm stuff. "too loopy" as shave says. just couldnt get into it. Mark Broom next. opened up with this rap/idm alternating sequence that was actually kinda cool. makes me think about how hiphop derived like all electronic music is. covers some expected idm ground then ends with like 20 or so minutes of the awesomest darkest dubstep and acid and breaks tracks ever. a little lengthy (at this point was def testing patience a bit...) but i liked it more than tsrono's. also cool that the sets transitioned into each other lots of thoughts about this ae set though. way too many. constantly morphing evolving self refracting end of electronic music. felt like the logical finale of all electronic percussion, theres nothing past it. very free - easily some of their most abstract stuff ever. kind of realized during the show why they stopped releasing studio albums. when this is the new standard how can you even compromise? the end of tracks and structure. i noticed bqbqbq patch somewhere. i also think they dont need openers tbh. im going to listen to all the lives all of them we got dennys afterwards and i tried the slamburger which i liked gat 8 | |
forgot to make this entry like a week ago when i saw him so here it is missed Special Agent, saw like 3/4ths of Downhill2k01. its weird how dance-deprived the ug edm scene here is because it literally takes nothing to get everyone excited. play shitty lil kevo nightcore and mosh ensues ?? they need to work on their transition game, i also dont really get nightcoring drum and bass for a 30 min dj set i was honestly loathing the idea of seeing Deli Girls because i just cant stand digital hardcore but they were surprisingly fun. i think the live drums (and the fact that bro got some chops) really help, but they have a good ear for super energetic breakbeat/techno stuff. its weird though because it seems like people were less into this than downhill's set. yall make no sense. wish the vocals were mixed louder but it was kinda a vibe just watching her scream and hearing nothing goreshits set was awesome though. i kind of expected it would be like live tracker meets dj stuff and would be mostly focused on his pure breakcore output, but he played eXXXcaliborg.Error (and one other old one) and it made my heart so warm. just remember being 17 thinking how he'd probably never do a north american show esp not one in texas but i guess we made the right lolicore artist famous :,) the set was great though real hardcore shit and i love his tempo change transitions between tracks. hes so chill thanks yall | |
NMIXXBlue Valentine (2025)Pop Rock, Dance-Pop, Contemporary R&B, Pop Rap female vocalist, eclectic, energetic, playful, lush so much better than i was expecting. track by trakc bc its all kind of disconnected blue valentine very sweet chorus and the bpm change is appreciated phoenix has cool vocal chop/processing ideas i really like reality hurts has chops too and another bpm change which is crazy. very fucking fat and heavy fav i think rico and podium lean into reggaeton influence which is dope if anyone can do it its nmixx spinnin, game face, crush, adore, shape and bot o.o tracks are all fine but dont stick out as much. still i think the good stuff is good enuff to keep score high. a lot of this feels like what aespa should have evolved into. keep it up yall 3.5 | |
KAVARISuture (2022) [EP]Power Noise, UK Bass, Breakbeat Hardcore, Glitch female vocalist, manic, noisy, aggressive, dense boi is this boring. i think if they did like really long sprawling tracks that focused less on "parts" and leaned more into the cool sound design theyre getting at it would be way more awesome 2.5 | |
On Solid GroundOn Solid Ground (2007) [EP]Christian, heavy, male vocalist sensible and solid dxc. the melodic parts shine through and theyve got a great talent in writing breakdowns. the first half kind of meanders though, but the second half has some of my fav dxc tracks ever tho 3 | |
Aunt MaryAlmost Dead (2010) [Single]heavy, aggressive, chaotic, noisy, lo-fi lol chill they get a lot out of that one drum beat a bit tame 3 | |

Ion Dissonance.357 (2002) [Additional release]heavy, aggressive, depressive, dissonant, chaotic angular low distortion math its a fun time impulse listen. if the vocals were sass it would be beak 3 | |
KAVARIMaimed (2021) [Single]some interesting crunchy production ideas and impacting parts. to short to leave a lasting impression though 3 | |
Session 9 (2001)been meaning to watch this forever, glad i finally did. plays with the haunted house/spoiler: click to read storyline in really interesting ways. way less emphasis on visual or even "supernatural" horror and relies more on history and simple physical presence to build atmosphere and tension. human emotions resonate differently in different environments; stories that died a century ago reach out and infect us. theres some inspiring camera work here, but it feels like they never fully capitalize on the potentials of the asylum or the area outside it. it plays with expectations in a way that is neither subpar or outstanding, just... kind of oddly? really appreciated Mullan's performance as well Sexton's. ghosts are haunting you, asbestos is killing you, everyone is irritating you, and worst of all you have nothing to come home to and nothing to live for. 3 | |
Enema Dick27 Cases of Failed Enema Treatments (2025) [EP]thanks brust this was fun drums are mixed so weird rly the whole thing is there's like no low end or high end but there is? idk 3 | |
RienThe Transparent Blue Tape (2023)noisy microscopic particles that dont pull you in but rather amplify the world around you; emphasizes the environment and underlines the sound of your life right now as its happening. i dont love it but i can see why wwwwwww does 3 | |
Imogen HeapAftercare (2025) [Single]calm, mellow, female vocalist, peaceful, atmospheric the backlash in the comments i cant its a fine imogen composition with very saturated emotional strings and blah blah shes a talented musician and a good producer so its all very sound. obviously the focal point here is the vocals which, how i understand it, are just hers also lol. its difficult to tell for me that they are even "ai" (its really more like a soundfont based on how she describes it) so to me it just comes across as a regular imogen track. i hope she ignores the negative comments and continues to push this idea forward with more edge cases and wilder compositions. 3 | |
Ghost of GardeniaImage_20230116_130222 (2023)noise wall that settles like dust on the counter until its suffocating im not actually too keen on the texture, its too dark and bass-y, but this has a lot of the usual gardenua flourishes that transcend it for me. love the ending 3.5 | |
PunishmentVampiric (2024) [DJ Mix]heavy, dark, noisy, rhythmic, atmospheric october is a little more straightforward than the mix from this year but still major experimentation and fucking ludicrous drops everywhere so heavy so huge tearout moots tap in 🔜🔛🔝 3.5 | |
My Babysitter's a Vampire (2010)i like the intro sequence with the phones and laptops. this was also way more sexual than i anticipated which is kind of weird... main vampire guy looks like andrew tate to me overall a huge step up from tracey fragments na | |
Bladee & Yung LeanEvil World (2025) [EP]dark, alienation, surreal, death, male vocalist all of their verses feel so hollow. cant tell if theyre just not trying or im just not the target audience. production is actually really boring everywhere, not a lot sticks out to me. very totally forgettable. 2.5 | |
Weaver001A Step Aside (2002) [Single]someone in a server im in was hyping this up. it sucks though sorry. really surface level feeling downtempo kinda early "idm" stuff. i dont much care at all for either track but i guess i do like the last half of the second one as it finishes building up and is more full sounding. 2.5 | |
waveswept.wavi'm not alive, i'm an echo (2021)Harsh Noise Wall, Ambient Noise Wall repetitive, nocturnal, lethargic, atonal, noisy comfy indeed xaman, but i think its a bit too heavy for the vibe its going for. a good way to pass the time 3 | |
Strawberry HospitalGrimremedy (2025)Breakcore, Glitch Pop, Darkstep, Progressive Trance, Glitch introspective, ethereal, rhythmic, nonbinary vocalist, melodic boring meandering too polished idrc. way too much downtime for an album with a breakcore secondary! i like their vocals a lot though those have special feeling to me 2.5 | |

OsamaSonpsykotic (2025)Rage, Experimental Hip Hop, Hardcore Hip Hop Industrial Hip Hop, Hardcore Hip Hop, Trap noisy, bassy, infernal, chaotic, dense super duper awesome and im glad hes finally moving on from ok prod and actually dropping some of the boundary pushing stuff hes been teasing forever. every track is fun even the ones i dont care about (she woke up), instrumentals are super exciting always the busiest synths and most ridiculous drums, also obv the 808 distortion is just crazy everywhere here. lyrically definitely not his strongest material but his deliveries flows etc always perfect even when hes on autopilot. go read shaves entry 3.5 | |
PinkPantheress & BladeeStateside (2025) [Single]male vocalist, ethereal, bright, female vocalist, punchy its cool. im not super familiar with the og; i like the big synth chords here and the impacting kicks. bladee's voice sounds pretty nice on this beat, both of them together feel like some The Fool type time. pp's part is chill 3 | |

DJ Hold Me Close I'm Floating NowLiquid Flowing Crystal (2023)Field Recordings, Harsh Noise Wall aquatic, rain, peaceful, atonal, soothing huh. kind of expected something by more straightforward (feel like svens stuff in this vein usually is?) but it was a lot more ... interesting than i anticipated. water recordings pushed into walls by , well walls but also just repetition and layering. texturally quite boring honestly, but i appreciate the concept. sometimes you can pick up on phantom rhythms in the loops. 3 | |
ReflectionsShadow (2024) [EP]heavy, male vocalist, dark, rhythmic, harsh vocals realizing listening to this thst thall is really a studio kind of genre. or its just interesting how it lowkey totally bridges djent / metal with electronic stuff but in not a gay way? i just mean that theres like tons of post production meticulously crafted digital elements, like gated guitars mimicking synths or all the ways the drums play with reverb and different trigger samples. its cool i think kicks ass and is short enough to leave a noticeable impact. very awesome stuff, will be relistening 3.5 | |
Delusional ParasitosisDemo 2013 (2013) [Additional release]Brutal Death Metal, Slam Death Metal classic and so bad the fuck ass. obv not on par w album version but the song is kick ass enough that its okay being more straightforward produced like this :D 3.5 | |

CavitnakNeedle Samples (2025) [DJ Mix]Instrumental Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Trap im prob the only person that will fw this as much as i do but the melodies and loops are just so. ebotional. to me. they heal me bruh. feels like acid medical also very delicate and sensitive production that is satisfying 3.5 | |
ITZYCollector (2025)Pop Rock, Dance-Pop, Contemporary R&B, Trap female vocalist, rhythmic, melodic well when youre scraping the bottom of the barrel anything worth more than nothing is a win. their most tolerable title track since ... fucking guess who? out of season and trigger also ride the fine line of being just decent enough to operate as functional background music without being offensive at all. i i know kinda sucks though. not coming back to that one. the real takeaway for me is wind ride though. very sensible and sound k&b. always a sucker for the simple and effective tracks :) some of the bonus tracks dont hurt the album either: i still like algorhythm and no biggie (though i cant say i can really tell a noticeable difference with lia on them now...) and imaginary friend is a fine ballad track. i still dislike girls will be girls and gold is just... boring. ill take what i can get 3 | |
ReflectionsWillow (2020)dissonant, dark, heavy, male vocalist, chaotic ok first listen i really really hated his vocals and they sucked. but ive been coming back and im getting over them. i think theyre like just mediocre most of the time which means the sucky parts really stick out. anyway tho its pretty dark really processed thall stuff. good stank face. the hate is unjustified! 3 for now | |
botamonfeel free to watch me delicately decay (2025) [EP]softest quietest crumpling 3.5 | |
Rings (2005)quik little octoper watch. for fun. nice little prelude to ring2 but that movie would have been a lot better if it was just this. beautiful cinematography and quick cuts and hazy edits. this look never wears its welcome for me. na | |
]]]][[[[0000/0003 (2023)Reductionism, Ambient Noise Wall evokes something totally zero nullity blank inside me imploding eraser void hawking radiation recursively locked inside safes a thin surface with no information silence 4 | |
KGLurching Jellyfish Horde (2025)Electroacoustic, Ambient Noise Wall, Harsh Noise Wall crackly, dense, ominous, warm, atmospheric nice work kole. really texturally rich and very meticulous. lots of moving parts and lots of movements in parts. i wish there was more synergy and in general it just lacks something important to me... but i commend the respectable effort! not listening to the comp sorry 3 | |
HelloweenThe Dark Ride (2000)male vocalist, energetic, melodic, anthemic, dark its fucking october bro im honestly realizing i love the soaring choruses and default power drums. shits just awesomeness and uplifting. i wish they did more of that. but a good amount of tracks are just so so heavy metal stuffs. his lyrical content is curious. is Mr Torture not about the dark web like? i beat a SCARY THEMED DEMON while listening. im ghoul maxing! 3 | |
Monster Ultra Black not sure when they dropped this but i saw it at kroger and got one. its a lot more friendly tasting than the name suggests which is awesome and its actually quite sweet which i like. but not so syruppy that its gross. it doesnt stand out like the ultra hawaiian or vikingberry does but i appreciate the more subtle taste because its makes it great drink to just sip on throughout the day. | |
ES: Volume 3Update 49 (2023) [EP]Harsh Noise, Drone, Dark Ambient sorry ReloadedV1 i took forever getting to this but i finally did rumbling slight looping distant waul. its fine. second track is definitely intense but feels undeserved. i like the old cover more. 3 | |
PunishmentAcrimony (2025) [DJ Mix]Experimental, Dubstep, Tearout [Brostep] mechanical, homicide, surreal, anxious, sampling bruh this is crazy Pete. noise secondary is not to be messed with. not fast paced like a normal tearout mjx def feels way closer to normal "dubstep" (like structurally) but fucking nuts. awesomeness. will listen to the other mixes 3.5 | |
Darkall SlavesMephitic Redolence of the Decomposed (2022)Technical Death Metal, Slam Death Metal dark, dissonant, ominous, rhythmic, violence wow great find shave and everyone loves it except for store because store is fucjing wormless 👍 really perfects the tech to brutality ratio; THIS IS WHAT ALL TECHSLAM BANDS NEED TO SOUND LIKE! also theres just amazing writing all around, very satisfying parts and lots of awesome climaxes. loses my a bit by the last two tracks they kind of fall towards the median of this style but its overall still really really good and fun. 3.5 | |
ArgotIn Our Human Meat Locker (2000) [Additional release]lo-fi, heavy, vulgar, violence, death really sloppy primitive stuff some interesting vocals here that border on just whispers or talking >released as argot >cover says artery eruption genius 3 | |
DepreciatorSelf-Titled (2015)Deathcore, Downtempo Deathcore no sugarcoating itvthese are probably the worst vocals ever. but the djent production and performance makes it okay. very depressive sounding stuff. seriously i hate his voice tho 3 | |
After the BurialRareform (2009)Melodic Metalcore, Progressive Metal, Deathcore technical, uncommon time signatures, male vocalist, heavy, complex wow thi s is fucking awesome this is so awesome. exactly what i need in djent and core. perfect melo stuff and the breakdowns are just so nasty so much fun feels like the shortest 35 min ever! 3.5 | |
AmuletAmulet (2024) [EP]halfway decent. theres an 808 in here that felt like it shook the earth so it gets points for that. gud breakdownz 3 | |
Gila MonsterThree Words (2010) [EP]indeed some good guitarists. second feels very no wave. not a lot to chew on but its a good time 3 | |
HepatogastroenteromyoneuroimmunocytosarcomatoplastyHepatogastroenteromyoneuroimmunocytosarcomatoplasty (2025) [Additional release]the k's team up very passive. kind of interesting. quiet water. i hope this is not a one time transmission 3 | |
Pediatric Rape VictimEmesis-Inducing Necrovaginal Stench (2025) [EP]interesting. lots of cyclic movement feelings and low end nastiness. i can see why the dust likes it but i think its just okay 👍 3 | |
Last Shift (2014)we continue the evil october kind of interesting premise for what seems like a run of the mill exploring-trauma-in-physical-spaces horror that actually switches up and becomes an even more normal haunted house/unstable reality horror. camera work is surprisingly solid and somewhat inspired. actors seem like confident highschool theatre students. 2.5 | |
Kevin DrummSunday (2018)doing a little reading. i really really need to catch up i basically skipped an entire month of progress on this year lol. its sunday too and drumm always has my back except this is kind of ahh like that high tone gets really grating the more you let it invade the foreground. the quieter drone that shows up is nice but its overshadowed by that hideous higher tone. abrupt end 2.5 | |
Natural Snow BuildingsSession 2001 [Additional release]Psychedelic Folk, Chamber Folk Indie Folk, Chamber Music, Singer-Songwriter melancholic, melodic, acoustic, mysterious, dark huh. its subtle and relaxing; the songs are relatively simple but are delivered with that classic occult-ish tone and style nsb displays elsewhere. its lowkey a little boring tho; i have to say im definitely more a fan of their drone work (comparing that to this very small sample size...) but im still open to checking out more of this. i wonder if the studio versions on TOTBS are more interesting. that title track is pretty good though 3 | |
Her Demise My RiseThe Takeover (2010)male vocalist, vulgar, aggressive, heavy, hedonism doing chores. this is produced really well. like really well. guitars sound so clean. major djent influence. i honestly cant stand the hardcore derivative lead vocals but instrumentally this is so solid lots of fun breakdowns and those electronicore autotune choruses (why are they only in like 3 songs T-T ) are sooo good. theres a song on here that sounds like a pantera cover band's original 3 | |
Dr. AculaSilver Lipped Operator of Bullshit (2007)Deathcore, Deathgrind, Mathcore quirky, male vocalist, playful, aggressive, heavy talk about all over the place lol. memecore (before memes?) stuff ala iwrestledabearonce etc it is definitely more death focused than its peers though and manages to squeeze out some genuinely good parts inbetween all the silly antics. definitely not as obnoxious as it should be! 3 | |
A Black Rose BurialDemo (2003) [Additional release]male vocalist is this spazzcore? all over the place lol. kinda wish the sass was primary. far cry from their debut 3 | |
In Death I RiseDemo (2010) [EP]just kept getting better. very loose and in turn sometimes hella syncopated its really cool. it feels like the writing just kept improving with each track and the breakdowns got even heavier. makes me remember why i love ts oh yeah and shave is gay 3.5 | |
Burn My Heart at SunsetApocalipse (2010) [EP]found this a year ago and just kept putting off adding it to the db but now i did and icofromhelpful approved the image kinda sloppy-ish brutaldeathcore but its nice. vocals sound a bit off. here and there are some nice breakdowns. sounds much more high quality than i anticipated 3 | |
Convectorh & DJ 0000Bozon III (2014) [DJ Mix]walking around half price books listening to this i got a copy of the road (my library one couldnt be renewed) and a russian-english dictionary :D honestly a totally inoffensive ambient mix (im not sure what it has to do with the other bozon entries, maybe these are ambient tracks from related artists?) that would have been totally acceptable if it was not for that fucking windows volume sound happening like 12 times. why did yall even adjust your volume that many times and why didnt you just rerecord ts 😭 2.5 | |
Halophilic ArousalHypernatraemious Mass (2025) [Single]super weird maybe his most outsider yet. no drums was curious choice. very processed and obtuse. hmm 3 | |
KreteryDead Set (2020) [DJ Mix]good morning looked interesting and it was. im not super familiar with deathstep (or minatory to be more specific) but i understand the basics. a lot of these are explainably poorly mixed lacking bass or proper levelling, being lost and all its probably not even worth fixing that kind of stuff for what is essentially a throwaway additional release. still these tracks have a surprising amount of variety and differing sound pallets while also being fairly heavy, especially neuropath's tracks. i may dig further into the genre 3 | |
The Conjuring: Last Rites (2025)forgot to make this entry on the 1st. capped off our 3 year anniversary with some conjureslop not that the first movie is a milestone in modern horror or even some kind of example of above average filmmaking (i think expecting either of those things out of something like this is a mistake) i will give it credit for committing to its premise and staying focused and consistent. in my original entry for that i lauded the movie's "rules" and how it abides by them. it seems that the further we get from the original the less we stick to that framework; the characters become iconic toys and the mission becomes a fairy tale action battle. none of this really makes any sense and despite a 2+ hour runtime it still feels like they didnt have enough time to cover everything they promised in the set up. the nice thing about that experience though was that we were the only two people in the theatre. its so much fun being able to openly talk in a theatre like that :D na | |
Veil of MayaDemo 2005 (2005) [Additional release]Progressive Metal, Technical Death Metal, Melodic Death Metal very fun! you can def tell they were destined for djent with this lol. songs are a bit too convoluted and winding to really leave an impression but man the last track is so fucking good. perfect melo riffage and an uplifting climax. good technical breakdowns of course i think thats it for tonight 3 | |
DurgaEarn Your Redwings Mormon (2002) [EP]aggressive, male vocalist, noisy huh. kind of cool. a bit post hardcore leaning (in the least post hardcore way i guess). the synth influence doesnt actually shine as obnoxiously as you might anticipate (whats up with the horror synth tag?). their ep preceding this looks more worthwhile i think. 3 | |
ConvectorhMatter's Rebellion (2009) [EP]Speedcore, Industrial Hardcore surreal, chaotic, dense, noisy, rhythmic very psychedelic and acousquantic or wahtever. i dig the bridge between splitter and flash without sounding DAW. may need a reinspection on a later date 3 | |
Eternity Chaos & Ghost MountainDIE4U (2025) [Single]nonbinary vocalist, longing, gender, death, love this is nice. some lgbt. is it really a prince cover? ec vocals sound cool. it feels like autopilot witch house kind of but it still sounds smooth and i like the melodies. ghosts part is good too. maybe will come around to it 3 | |
The Apoplexy Twist OrchestraCreate the New (2004)angry, male vocalist, energetic this is nice, lots of emotional riffing and powerful climaxes, but it doesnt really stick with me. maybe ill come around to it 3 |

08/29/25 00:44 CST i'm just seeing your comments about estudio en base a observaciones de cámaras de acuarios , thank you for the kind words as always. i made that one when i was obsessed with looking at unsecured cameras in insecam.org , i would stay up on sleepless nights watching random cameras and CCTV footage. the cover (and inspiration for the album as denoted by the title) came from watching a camera of someone's aquarium, normally you'd see different fishes swimming about but i took that screenshot one night when the camera got tipped over and you couldn't see anything. i'm not a fan of everything i've made with the project but that one and ...'N This Is the Part Where I Break Free... are my favorites. i could go on about how the latter was entirely made using audio from JAVs and videos of slugs and how i deem it as a very personal project made in the wake of a falling out between me and someone i considered a friend, but your little blurb sums the whole thing up rather nicely. sending you a big hug flag delete |

07/15/25 09:15 CST "Live" was originally supposed to be recorded as part of a planned album called Persons Leave the Stage that was scrapped when I made the decision a few months ago to leave the US in pursuit of my Master's Degree - we will be recording it in the sessions for our final album later this month, the other two long tracks were just a live Swans cover and a track we already did on Dreaming in a Headache. I appreciate the kind words, and we will be getting back into the psychedelic effects and sound collage more when we go to record in the studio. flag delete |

03/26/24 15:48 CST This is How They'll Welcome You to Heaven is still a release I personally like, but it is definitely a step down from the LP in terms of neat stuff - it was a fast and dirty production that all started because I wanted to do a split with a local band I thought was cool. If we do more classic Noisecore stuff I do want to bring the sound collage/drone/psych/noise elements back. flag delete |

07/01/23 11:23 CST @redapplefour yeah i read that too. was kind of an interesting insight to roden’s musical/lowercase approach. quite interesting how it initially birthed from him as a form of protest, and i really liked what he said about it turning into something ‘to conform to’; that was never his intentions. real good read imo flag delete |

06/02/23 07:41 CST @zinestheticluminescence thanks, im glad you liked my write up :) i went in knowing it was one of your favourites, so i had high expectations! of course i couldnt doubt your taste @quickestscoped i guess i was just really taken aback by them, especially the singing lol. really feed me master and the first track arent awful, but the singing on the second (and last) tracks just didnt do it for me, and im glad it ended up only being those two tracks with that kind of singing. i do encourage diabarha to maybe explore his voice more in the future though, i can see it working, im sure hes got the skills to make it happen flag delete |
06/01/23 08:58 CST haven't heard a lot of people here talk about Onto Brink; ur thoughts on it were pretty interesting honestly. I agree it kinda blends together after a bit but I didn't hate the first 3 tracks tbh (his singing was a bit weird tho) flag delete |

08/16/22 12:44 CST Honestly, as someone who has listened to a sizable portion of Kevin Drumm's discography, "more annoying and irritating than meditative and relaxed" accurately describes a lot of his work. flag delete |

Abel Is DyingGazing From the Abyss (2006) [EP]death, melodic, energetic, male vocalist, heavy wow this is amazing. super passionate melocore stuff, lots of impact and sincerity. thank you grust... you know what to do tave 3.5 | |
The CrinnThe Crinn (2007) [EP]uncommon time signatures, energetic, dark, manic, noisy the shave ketchup continuies. normal mathing stuff. feels way more Composed and accessible than what id like. his vocals also kinda weaksawce... 3 | |
NottAbyssal (2014) [EP]Deathcore, Downtempo Deathcore Atmospheric Sludge Metal, Djent atmospheric interesting. definitely heavy. but it lacks a lot of style i think. also needs to djent. the penultimate is pretty nice though. bad ass cover. 3 | |
We Are the EndIf I Should Die (2016) [EP]first track is amazing 808 heaven. sounds ahead of its time in a way second keeps up the awesomeness with really lofi quality so the ending section feels wall metal. catharsis would be a 3.5 if the other two tracks were a similar quality but they feel more standard/hifi. some gud breakdownz but nothing sticks like those first 2 tracks 3 | |
Ice Nine KillsThe Pop-Punk-Ska Years (2009) [Compilation]humorous, playful, energetic, lo-fi, rebellious sometimes its cute but it honestly sucks. their songwriting was so bad. its funny that they wrote a song criticizing bands that "sell out" and are only in the scene to be "rockstars" but they literally only changed their sound to fit what the growing demand in the mall scene was asking for lol. 2.5 | |
Shai HuludDemo (1995) [EP]Metalcore, Emo, Melodic Hardcore nice. feels spiritually straight edge. good articulate stuff 3 | |
phreshboyswagFuck the Fame (2025) [Single]vulgar, fame, male vocalist dont know if id agree that hes "back" but this certainly isnt bad. i wanted to say something about his flow but it has escaped me. maybe you can put 2 and 2 together. beats nice love the 808s 3 | |
Maximize BestialityExcreting the Malformed (2013) [EP]tiny sounds of-the-era. nothing super special but its nice i suppose 3 | |
EASYFUNLaplander (Finn Keane Remix) (2024) [Single]female vocalist, melancholic, energetic, dense, breakup still on a break for some reason. first verse reminds me of hueboy remix by dj clap. the last chorus is nice buzzing synths. good panning. doesnt do mhch for me i guess 3 | |
SeismƓཞɛƙɩơɧıɩɩı (2025) [EP]SEISM CELLNOISE?! no not actually its just that same kind of fast oscillating higher frequencies stuff happening on top of what sounds like a metal sample and wall? or some kind of drums being manipulated and then jason noise? SEISM COMPLEX VARIABLE NOISE?! no not really hes just using the mandelbrot fractal as the cover... 3 | |
Invasive Urinary BacteriaLive Session (2025) [Additional release]"live cellnoise" will be interesting to see how this is continually pushed as the community develops. this session is definitely leagues ahead of all the silly first wave cell stuff from earlier this year, but it also feels less connected to gore than that stuff was. 3 | |
Halophilic ArousalMorhz Zhyrgyl Jyjydjyz Hyhyldomr (2025) [Single]Black Metal, Avant-Garde Metal the nice thing about this job onboarding process is that they are giving us a break every hour for some reason (im literally on my third break of the day as im writing this lol) and i get to risten to musiq glad to see bag is back in action that warms my cold mineral heart. doing black metal is unexpected but welcome surprise; very blown out wall feeling from this. really love the vocals and how theyre mixed, but i wish this was a lot longer and leaned more into that gated stuff it does in the outro. its a good teaser, im predicting goat of the goats on this new album hes working on 3 | |
Mental CrueltyPereat Mundus (2016) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal, Deathcore Deathcore, Downtempo Deathcore heavy, aggressive, rhythmic, violence, harsh vocals in the process of getting new job and the evil of my mind makes me spend a fucking hour of my morning mv driving to get documents from my parents house which is 👍 good rec shave. totally agree that the vocals are the best part of this, remind me a lot of infant annihilator; maybe its the really big post production emphasis. i wish the actual music had way more character though this rly suffers from le modern production. the breakdowns are insane though they reach what feels like 40bpm its really heavy (wish the guitars matched that tone though) and it reminds me a lot of ULTRA SLUDGE or HYPER DOOM! (is this influence of the Downtempo Deathcore the croomfs have been talking about? perhaps i need to investigate...) 3 | |
CuntsnifferUntitled (2024) [Compilation]good morning it migjt be a new day but im still only wanting to hear cuntsniffer sorry i know this is a comp of stuff ive basically already heard but i thought maybe if i rehear i will rediscover sogs i like but nope its mostly whatever fine stuff. maybe the first song i would come back to. i wonder why they dont just compile their goated singles into an album 3 | |
CuntsnifferMice on Carcasses (2024) [Single]oh yeah this is cute and deadly i really like their chiller indietronica noise pop inspired stuff very candy sweet 3.5 | |

CuntsnifferHer First Love (2025) [Single]its cuntsniffer day i guess i dont want to listen to anything else kind of normal metalcore stuff super ultra blown out and noisy though the cover is good but it does look like shane dawson 3 | |
CuntsnifferShe Made the Stick a Wand (2024) [Single]kind of just a cute little loop. i would say this is Not Canon in cuntsniffing 3 | |
Craniotomy...And From Flesh to Bone (2001) [Additional release]waow really fun old sound lots of tasteful drumming and guitar. very comfy makes me smile 3.5 | |
Close My EyesRobot Retardation (2003)dissonant kinda normal mathy stuff you know what to expect from the packaging. cool little digital glitch stuff happening here and there that give it a bit of character 3 | |
The Cherry PointGrisly Death (2004) [Single]ill say its a bit too passivr for what i want in tcp stuff (and also kinda quiet?). still a nice range of textures and movement 3 | |
AhlzagailzehguhBypassing Time Passing (2007)def the best ahlz ive heard so far. lots of variety; not sure what his setup could even be but it really feels like he gets an infinite amount of textures out of it. love the huge deeper lines (using rita nomenclature 🤓) 3.5 | |
Convectorh & DJ 0000Bozon II (2012) [DJ Mix]lovely. amazing track selection. way more active style flash than boston 1, so ma be this is better? i should rly check out convectorhs solo stuff 3.5 | |
Siberian SolutionAlprazolam (2017) [EP]secretly there is a ghost in the room the interruptions break my knees i just wish the main texture was more interesting 3 | |
Bladee & Yung LeanEvil World (2025) [Single]dark, bright, male vocalist, hypnotic, rhythmic the synth is kind of interesting how its like all out of tune. i dont much care for ee and leans rapping anymore but i like the second half where theyre 'singing' its nice kinda just like cold visions c side or smth idk 3 | |
CuntsnifferIt's Not Funny When I'm the Joke (2024) [Single]fine skramz bit stuff. not a standout in their discog. hi aubrey 3 | |
Thus Spoke ZarathustraThe Sun Will Never Shine Upon Us (2022) [EP]Melodic Death Metal, Melodic Metalcore was honestly just okay with it until that last track. holy moly on repeat thats easily one of the best deathcore songs of all time. huge fan of the snare in this ep 3.5 | |
MeshihaMolesting the Decapitated - Zombie Edition (2013) [EP]death, heavy, rhythmic, violence, vulgar bwautiful slam in the morning its automatically good because its devourment but they really juice these tracks with the rerecordings. feels huge and beefy! zombie... more like werewolf! 3.5 | |
Destroy All! HumansAway From the Eyes, Far From the Heart (2024) [EP]lo-fi, raw normal revival things. dont rly like cover. mixing is pretty awesome though. if yhey could write some good music and continue with this kind of mix it would be easy favs 3 | |
We Are the EndInspired by You (2009) [EP]bad the funk ass very busy sounding which is sometimes cool but i feel like it makes things less memorable 3 | |
Jason CampbellBoo (2019)way more dynamic / varied than i expected. even quiet moments sometimes. kind of cool. its neat hearing this side of him. 3 | |
CuntsnifferI Need to Fly (2025) [Single]aggressive, chaotic, melodic, androgynous vocals fml bruh 4 | |

DetergeIntroductio in Analysin Infinitorum (2022)noisy math major noise yay first track loses me a little with the power electronics bits but the second track is like nonstop pure destruction noise its perfect title does not really make sense with the theme because complex variables have nothing really to do with analysis of infinities but thats okay ❤️🩹 3.5 | |
...Of DeathDemo (2001) [Additional release]noisy, raw, rebellious, violence, hateful classic whistle bocals that are amazing. compositionally though its like whatever i especially rolling my eyes at some of these slower sections. shave called it metallica covers of jeromes dream songs and thats fucking true 3 | |

Miku's ColonoscopyMiku's Colonoscopy (2020) [Single]Nature Recordings, Rain Sounds sampling, rain, winter, lo-fi too comfy. the recording quality is so crisp but also like compressed its weird. nice morning listening. thank you for unlosting jaiden 3.5 | |
Her Sins Piled High as HeavenI Heart Kittens (2002) [Additional release]Emo, Post-Hardcore, Melodic Metalcore sentimental, lo-fi, bittersweet, male vocalist played noise show tonight. Gay Cum Daddies opened. i thought i would miss their set but it seemed we all started a bit late. classic no waving stuff. always a fun time watching reece and rick figure out how exactly to play the next song. i didnt realize they had a keyboardist, is that new? puppy mill second. same usual ness but they got a new drummer and new second bassist i think? new drummer is not as nonchalant as last but helps with vocals which is nice. they really need to do noise while playing songs Blank Hellscape played next they are touring they have new music or didn't know that before. one of their noise guys was sick so reece played guitar with them last minute. super weird addition and you couldn't hear him too well but it was cool; apparently his pedalboard broke and he had to play without it lol. i think like last time i saw them they have great ideas and loud cool noise but they always play 50 minutes minimum and its fucking 11:40 yall! vocals were a bit too quiet. i liked the loud hits part. we played last. interesting playing in a record store as a 6 member noise act bc the quality really depends on the PA and we got "lucky" being able to use BHs. it sounded kind of like live lofi it was cool. very psychedelic apparently. i got to share a table with Big Hole :D this was nice. the first and last interlude bits 🥹 3 | |
The Au PairDicked Off After Midnight (2005) [EP]Dissonant Death Metal, Brutal Prog, Emoviolence lo-fi this is another very good one but the focus this time is the snare. always a sucker for the frenetic snare falling down elevator chute. not really sure why i should give this a 4 though. 3.5 | |
Sender ReceiverSummer Sampler 2006 (2006) [Additional release]the last one wasnt even a 4 until i listened to this one and realized it mogs everything in the world this is still good though great vocals and its nice how big the kick drum is. you dont get much dynamics in these kinds of demos so rhat was cool 3.5 | |
The BirdsDemo [EP]Emoviolence, Experimental Rock heavy, dissonant, chaotic, noisy, lo-fi HOOOOLYYY FUUUUUUCK WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE 4 | |
We're Not Friends AnymoreDemo 2008 (2008) [EP]Mall Screamo, Post-Hardcore, Metalcore heavy, aggressive, raw, melodic, male vocalist wow. thanks charlje. the fucking autotune is beautiful. his vocals sound a lot like skrillex's in Bells. which means they are awesome 3.5 | |
Dying WishFlesh Stays Together (2025)Alternative Metal, Melodic Metalcore female vocalist, punchy, harsh vocals, heavy, energetic good morning! or night if tjats when you read this stuff... today is vacation day so gf and i spend it going to a state park and hiking, then we go thrifting and eat olive garden. the weather is so nice! we have to take advantage of this kind of thing. this was nice. feels like a step up from their first (i havent heard their second). def at least in terms of breakdowns and im loving the more rhythmic mathy influence on that stuff. i know its soy but the spiritbox comparisons are just too easy to make. her screams totally outshine laplante's tho shes kind of nuts on this. feel like lack of memorable parts and normal boring production rly stunt this for me gf said she didnt care much not their best album 3 | |
FuckedSynthetic Organic Impedance (2018) [EP]infernal, angry, heavy, anxious yall remember when the worst tried ts and it literally never caught on 😭 decent stuff. its got energy even if its all pretty homogenous. the first track used to be in the regular cycle back in highschool; now that im thinking about it this might be the first or one of the first metal releases i ever liked 3 | |
DestroidThe Invasion (Remixes) (2014)Moombahton, Electro House, Trap [EDM] i had like a million thoughts listening to this and didnt write them down but they all boil down to this sucks. none of the tracks outperform their originals and very few leave any impression at all. 2.5 | |
7038634357Voyage to Atlantis (2025) [DJ Mix]protest its actually pretty nice. both halves. concept puts me off at first but i like how its done. a bit serene 3 | |
PunkinloveeeDirty Pop Chain (2023) [Single]melts 3.5 | |
DestroidBounce VIP / Funk Hole VIP (2014) [Single]a commenter reminded me of this little project... bounce vip is literally the greatest shit ever, that build up is second to only the 2013 shambhala's intro in its entirety, *chills from the badassery* and the drop is perfect, exactly what you want when you hear the original (once your VIPilled you really can never go back). funk hole's vip is also good, but theres some caveats to consider if youre thinking about it versus the original. i think the original has way more low end range and is generally "bigger" so to speak, but the faster tempo and more exciting rhythms in the vip make it difficult to ignore. not really sure whats happening at the end with the goofy brostep beat but im going to ignore that for this discussion. 3.5 | |
SVDDEN DEATHVOYD Vol. 1 (2018) [EP]Briddim, Riddim, Tearout [Brostep] rhythmic, mechanical, dark, sampling, heavy a rotting friend reminded me of this one... four years ago all i had to say about this was "boring" lol well it still is kinda boring at times but coming back i def missed a lot of the aspects that make it good. tearout production will always be interesting and this is no exception. drops are fine but Behemoth really sticks out to me, love how it plays with low ms delay stuff. i think the majn thing holding back all these tracks is just a lack of atmosphere and really strong character. they all feel very skeletal (but not in a MTGFYT way) like half finished song ideas just rushing to get to a crazy drop. maybe i will check out more from them this year 3 | |
Carnal DecimateExistence Mutilated (1995) [Additional release]heavy, lo-fi, infernal, technical, male vocalist good clicky kick indeed. otherwise just normal osbdm 3 | |

Doctor PBig Boss / Black Books (2010) [Single]noisy, rhythmic, dark its good, but the problem with a lot of these early tracks is that they really dont have the drop 1 drop 2 structure and are often very very repetitive. that works for stuff like Marmite but not every drop is as good as Marmite's. could easily be a 3.5 if these werent both longer than 4 minutes. 1>2 3 | |
Deep WoundDeep Wound (1983) [EP]noisy, angry, energetic, anxious, male vocalist yawn i can totally see why this might have been exciting like 40 years ago but like its just lame af to me. his vocals really get on my nerves. would have probably been awesome to see live though. last track reminds me of no trend which is nice 2.5 | |

ILLIT時よ止まれ [Toki yo tomare] (2025) [Single]Contemporary R&B, Nu-Disco, Synth Funk, Funky House female vocalist, dancing, happy, romantic, uplifting nothing these are so uninspired and vapid do your dance is still good 2.5 | |
Doctor P / Cookie Monsta / Unitz / Flux PavilionBeats and Pieces (2010) [EP]wow. very amateur. like bad. just way too silly to seriously enjoy. the production and instrumentation sometimes is cool i guess but man these tracks are just soooo boring i guess flux p has the best? 2.5 | |
JoliThere Will Always Be a Reason (2018)im fucking goated as fuck because i finished all my physics homework in like an hour listening to this:D first track is rly nice cracks. everything else is standard harsh stuff. the last one reminds me of necrotik which fills me with negative warmth ❤️🩹 3 | |
Skrillex and Kill the NoiseRecess Remixes EP (2014) [EP]milo and otis' is great, but if it wants to end up in one of my mixes it needs some bigger bass and in general just more gain 🔥 vkhan's is pretty awesome too, i especially love the tempo change in the last drop. very fun ape drum's is completely forgettable. nothing i was never big on flux p's remix. its probably pretty exciting in a festival setting but i just dont care about his style of "big chords". its good vibes i guess. definitely doesnt beat the original 3 |
woo!ah!Qurious (2020) [Single]Electropop, Future Bass, Future House, Pop Rap, Contemporary R&B, Fidget House quirky, female vocalist nothing nothing nothing 2.5 | |
yukimi botamonUntitled (2025) [Single]cwumple hum fire 3.5 | |
Barely AliveFiber Optic EP (2015) [EP]Bass House, Jungle Terror, Moombahton it seems that at this point in their career, BA began moving away from strictly brostep stuff into more eclectic twerk adjacent territories. the ep kicks off however with a classic barely alive brostep track. lots of stuff to appreciate in the drop and their sound design is sharp and punctual as always. Boston Shit doesnt do a lot for me but i respect its percussive pallet. its quite overshadowed however by Lasers Up which perfectly captures the exciting festival twerk atmosphere with a stabbing drop. lots to love there. Work It does nothing for me; the vocal sample is quite annoying and the track itself is very unmemorable. Habstrakt's remix makes the obvious big room connection but i dont imagine myself ever listening to it again, especially since the original was already so good to begin with. 3 | |
ILLITI'LL LIKE YOU (2024) [EP]K-Pop, Dance-Pop, Contemporary R&B warm, melodic, love, soothing, mellow last one of the night. the first three tracks are solid, though they all have bits that hold them back for me (rly dont like iykyk's chant for example). but the last two tracks just totally kill the momentum. could do without them. 3 | |
Nasty Maid GrinderWhy did you censor my Loli!? (2009)somehow i just. never fucking rated this??? ive been listening to this for like 6 years of my life now and it never crossed my mind to rate it i guess lol. really candy sweet amateur anicore type stuff. you can tell this guy would go on to do some kurwacore because he is locked tf in with these kicks. really love the looping tape tracks. very fun stuff, _rust should listen 3.5 | |
WOOAHUnframed (2024) [EP]female vocalist pretty consistent and somewhat competent. polaroid, blush and girls love boys stick out to me as clean and effective pop tracks (the last one especially with some nice softer vocals towards the end). i cant stress enough how awful Pom Pom Pom is, literally just because of the guitar. the EDM version is so much better, and you know they thought so too because its fucking included here. why they didnt just stick with a psytrance kpop track is fucking beyond me lol. 3 | |
GetterShambhala 2014 Mix (2014) [DJ Mix]im on fucking vacation bitch so its dj mixes all day every day not to be confused with Shambhala Mix 2014. unfortunately also not even on par with it, Getter's mix is far shorter yet moves at 75% the pace of Excision's. theres also a healthy amount of track overlap, and Getter is generally way less focused (see the Get Low inclusion (??)) a handful of pretty iffy transitions as well as some questionable mashups dont help, but Getter is lucky that the scene in 2014 was good enough to completely carry any mix it wound up on just based off drops alone. 3 | |
Flux PavilionUKF Music Podcast #4 - Circus Records (2010) [DJ Mix]oh yeah fuck yeah this is it. ive never been a big flux p guy but he has an undeniably flawless track selection here. this is exactly what you want out of early brostep, tons of variety and plenty of popular tracks as well as deeper cuts. the last leg of this is nonstop killer 3.5 | |
Skrillex & MijaBonnaroo 2014: Kalliope (2014) [DJ Mix]importantly this is a sunrise mix, so it's understandably quite laid back and non-intense. lots of electro house/bassline house and general house adjacent stuff; quite danceable and fun. im not familiar with mija, but its impressive how deep skrillex's knowledge goes as his track selections fit so well here. mostly. the last 10-15 min is like a nostalgia banger throwback section which i could have really done without but it was obviously the vibe so i wont fault them. good for doing chores to 3 | |
Napkin Terrorizeru&me (2017) [EP]love and naps and warmth hope 3.5 | |
CaspaMy Style (2010) [DJ Mix]bit all over the place but theres some chunes in here. cant say i recommend its worth seeking out for the average buddy but if this music interests you and you like caspa its not gonna disappoint 3 | |
Nasty Maid GrinderLoli Breaker Vol167 (2009)following up Censor... it seems he started moving towards something more "musical" with this project (also evidenced by the label-release full length from... this year?!). typical kurwa-hardcore stuff with some maids slapped on the packaging. its fine 3 | |
Virtual Riot x Barely AliveHead to Head Vol. 1 (2020) [EP]ROUND ONE: Pray for Riddim is characteristically soulless like most VR stuff. fine sound design but feels like some shit you get recommended on tiktok Wompum is fat and exciting. has me thinking i really need to investigate BA's mid-late discog more because wow WINNER: BARELY ALIVE ROUND TWO: Cry Some More isnt as bland as Pray... but again its just like... virtual riot lol. i dont know something about his style just totally nullifies all the technically impressive aspects of his music. Odyssey has the most ludicrous and unseriously stupid intro of all time that also lasts like half of the fucking song. drop comes out of nowhere and does not make up for the strenuous journey it took to get there. WINNER: sigh... Virtual Riot... OVERALL: while i appreciate BA's drops and style way more, they take some risks i dont vibe with. VR plays it way too safe on the other hand and leaves a very uninteresting impression on me. Numbers say its a draw, but i think ill give it to Barely Alive anyway 3 | |
Suicide SilenceSuicide Silence (2004) [EP]nice. last two tracks have some really fun parts. good slams, riffage 78. if i come back to this more i may bump 3 | |

tripleS / ∞!Password (2025) [Single]female vocalist, urban, playful, energetic, rhythmic nothing 2.5 | |
Ice Nine Kills2 Song Acoustic (2009) [EP]Folk Rock, Folk Pop, Contemporary Folk, Singer-Songwriter honestly all of their music would be so peak if it was just acoustic shit like this would probably be more inclined to listen to their post-burning stuff perfection on both tracks, love that track 2 is like just word vomit structure. hes really evil on the first song 3.5 for now... | |
XGGala (2025) [Single]Hip House, Garage House, Diva House, Acid House female vocalist, nonbinary vocalist, fashion, futuristic, self-love quite interesting. 100% instrumental carried, in fact this might be the first kpop track ive ever heard where i have felt some kind of necessity to hear the instrumental version on its own. the drop feels very sophie inspired (yeah foad idc) and is super satisfying. the rapping is definitely a point of concern, BUT i think it makes it very texturally exciting and overwhelming; its super maximalist since their flows are pretty constant on top of backing vocals and all the nuts stuff happening in the instrumental. hopefully they explore this a bit more. 3 | |
NimdaThe Nimda 2024 Showcase (2024) [DJ Mix]holy fucking massive. so much girth on this mf. probbaly the best example of any kind of deathstep related music too. literally endlessly exciting, i even liked the hardstyle outro! all moots reading tap in 4 | |
woo!ah!Joy (2022) [EP]female vocalist mostly worthless nothing but the last song is cute 2.5 | |
NinajirachiI Love My Computer (2025)Electropop, Complextro, Bubblegum Bass internet, energetic, nostalgia, female vocalist, technology talk about contrived. feels like she has a really skewed understanding of dance music and a lot of this just falls completely flat. she needs to work on varying her production per track. i did think the last track was pretty cool, chanelling some pc music and theres a nice structure. 2.5 | |
yumeHolicTwisted Morals (2016)chaotic, noisy, sampling, uplifting, melodic cute fun bouncin. brings me back a few years 3 | |
Lorna ShoreI Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me (2025)Technical Death Metal, Symphonic Black Metal, Melodic Death Metal dense, heavy, male vocalist, technical, triumphant the symphonic stuff is way more prominent here and is therefore way fucking gayer. but also the breakdowns are even more minimal and oppressive so it cancels out. another 3 for the most overrated deathcore band ever 3 | |
skypebf / 2040x2040#waitforme (2025) [EP]energetic, male vocalist recced from the horrormovies ep. nothing really. maybe too overproduced. last track is nice tho 2.5 | |

DrippingLimb Splitter III (2025) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal Technical Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal heavy, rhythmic, psychedelic, male vocalist nice. im glad theyre a band again and still writing innovative / weird slam stuff. i cant tell if it feels contrived or not though, sometimes it feels like its doing a bit much but other times seb's naturally interesting writing shines through, idk. nothing super sticks with me, perhaps if they pushed this a bit further. 3 | |
horrormovieshearts (2021) [EP]kinda fun cute stuff. its scene revival so shave should risten i like it when a release is only on my list and ellas list last track is actually p nice 3 | |
ILLITBomb (2025) [EP]Contemporary R&B, Nu-Disco, Alt-Pop playful, happy, female vocalist, energetic, rhythmic erm whart the crump this is awesonge kind of knew they had it in them but this def exceeds expectations. just super consistent and fun dance stuff, always happiness when a kpop release sounds cohesive. only track i didnt like was oops, chorus is kinda meh. first and last are ⭐️ 3.5 | |
Barely AliveInternet Streets (Remixed) (2014) [EP]thank you mim, somehow never knew about this aside from the cyber bully remix when i was younger. candy kids vip is really awesome, i just wish it stuck to the doubletime section for a bit longer we all know cyber bully remix. no comment the other candy kids remix is fine. doesnt do much for me the last track tho... holy fucking skrillex worship awesomeness. on loop since i heard it, its so cool how twine honed in on a 2 second sound in the original and reconstructed the entire drop around it. genius 3.5 | |
Moody GoodTumpy Bopkins Mix (2014) [DJ Mix]Dubstep, Electronic Dance Music Neurofunk, Brostep, Ghettotech, Trap [EDM], Tech House, Grime, Footwork, Riddim fucking classy as fuck. really high highs. there are sections that get a bit boring but its impressive how well hes able to create a cohesive listening experience out of such drastically different styles. tumpy fuckin bopkins 3.5 | |
PxFxUx & CxOxTxLxCxBxExAxUxOpen Chest Tachycardia (2025) [EP]kind of interesting. not the usual cotl sound and its weird how it plays with the pfu elements but i think thats cool. a bit unique i guess? 3 | |
Optical LacerationOptical Laceration (2025) [EP]fun stuff but i wisj it was shorter 3 | |
BurialYoung Death / Nightmarket (2016) [EP]Ambient House, Synthwave, Dreampunk lonely, atmospheric, cold, nocturnal, mysterious a bit impenetrable i guess. kind of a whole lot of nothing. its the same kind of burial "urban" soundscapes you might expect but without any character or drive. not to say its uninspired or bad but it simply evokes nothing in me. 2.5 | |
DysthymiaParallax (2024)two words: FUCK PHYSICS HOMEWORK! super obtuse stuff. hardly even feels like bdm honestly. avant stop start. or something. keep an eye on them. very different sound 3 for now | |
Glume & PhossaGold Fang (2025) [EP]good find the guest not really tapped into modern dubstep stuff but it seems worth investigating. the microtonal stuff reminds me a lot of goa trance (especially on Hard Times with its driving 4/4 rhythms). 3 | |
CopremesisDemonstrating the Fist (2003) [Additional release]a fine serving of copremesis' brand of warping technical bdm. not as abstract feeling as Muay Thai but still exciting nonetheless. not really sure why the last track is black metal but i guess thats cool. 3.5 | |
The GerogerigegegeLive at Tokyo Gay Center (1989) [Single]gay, LGBTQ, sparse, avant-garde, instrumental "This just seems like it's someone messing with a plugged TS cable in an amp, am I missing something?" precisely. 3.5 | |
sololashsgrltornado sisters (2025)Sound Collage, Nature Recordings noisy, storm, repetitive, anxious, nocturnal really weird. anw derived entirely out of rain sounds and then theres expected roxy digital weirdness happening above and below it. its lowkey not that good but i found it at least interesting and very hypnotic/relaxing. 3 | |
CaspaMix 1.0 (2017) [DJ Mix]awesome shit, bag. huge fucking bass. every drop is killer. some really fucking goatered productions. nice and succinct 3.5 | |
Duck Duck GooseLove Will Set You Free (2025) [EP]male vocalist, harsh vocals, anxious, aggressive, energetic wb potential here but its just really boring. songs are way too short to be in this style and also be impactful. i dont hate it as much as shave though 2.5 | |

DiploExpress Yourself (2012) [EP]Bounce, Twerk, Complextro, Dutch House, Trap [EDM], Moombahcore rhythmic, party, warm, uplifting, urban strangely off-kilter but undeniably exciting. these kinds of drops never existed before and stopped happening right after. enjoyment scales proportionally to volume. when you arent busy throwing ass youre racking your mind trying to understand how you even write this stuff 3 | |
A Bullet for Pretty BoyBeauty in the Eyes of the Beholder (2008) [EP]Post-Hardcore, Metalcore, Mall Screamo Melodic Metalcore, Electronicore male vocalist, Christian, heavy, anxious, uplifting trods along very slowly without much to say. pretty bleh production. i will say, the climax of the lsst track feels like flying through the sky. 2.5 | |

SnailmouthButterfly: Bad Thoughts One Thousand Year (2025)great hifi crumbling and lots of hedonistic anxious energy. acrotic AW25 COMMENCES! 3.5 | |
Secrets Kept in SuicideDemo (2008) [EP]Melodic Metalcore, Mall Screamo heavy, melancholic, breakup, melodic, love thanks charlie. ate breakfast with my family. dropped a funny ass crypto joke. i love the berry dream french toast! first track is legendary. great vocals, powaful gatars. second one is also good but i feel like is not as well mixed. still a great chorus. last track leaves me totally bored though. they should keep writing songs about lights 3 | |
Missing YouWater in the Pericardium Caused by Lachrymose Deluge of Unrelenting Misery (2025) [EP]close to your heart snuggled deep within your head and hacked to bits with tears in my eyes we are keeping a close eye on you 3.5 | |
CT57Distant Sounds of Desolation (2024)atmospheric, melancholic, lonely, ominous, lo-fi a couple of ok mood pieces but this is like bery voring. i think its neat that theres a singular thread of white noise connecting all the tracks, though 2.5 | |
Daniel Ryan / Matthew CroweDaniel Ryan / Matthew Crowe (2019)avant-garde i just. dont even understand why you would release this. beyond gratingly boring daniel > matthew i guess 2 | |
Green TeaBending Your Sauna (2025)noisy, psychedelic psychedelic indeed and occasionally genius but a lot of this runtime does nothing for me. penultimate track is kino tho 3 | |
Ice Nine KillsThe Predator (2013) [EP]very deathcore leaning for their early stuff. choruses are sound. they lost a lot of the technicality that made the burning so great 3 | |
ghjmty775vJib of Jibs (2025) [EP]calm, repetitive, dense the plibberped inpluence... comfy 3 | |
Government AlphaSomnambulant (2011)noisy awesome strobing laser ion beam madness. a few tracks are flashcore tertiary usually not big on live track inclusions but it sounds p awesome and is a cooler more slower paced vibe 3.5 | |
RollingstockCanadian Pacific EMD MP15AC (2025) [EP]unique sergey pakhomov esque textures and obvious digital bass crunch when the wall drops out and its just the processed gear turning its... weird. cool structurally i guess 3 | |
Bloo the Cat001 (2025) [Single]great vocals. beautiful inspired stuff. excited to see where this project goes... 3.5 | |
AscitesCaput / Medusae (2010)played nojse set on a huge bill heres the super fast recap r.wet - missed tecali - midi flute and finger blast beats. awesome american cruelty - shrug computer nojse but it crashed mid set and the result was compositionally similar to Blood Red venetian video cats - took 100 years to setup then played silly midi electronic. cute masks matt burgess - no name act he played bc someone dropped. awesome toy music and then crazy harsh victoria spoilia - throat singing drone. cool freakhorse - acid loop -> noise. was a bit patience testing but i respect what theyre about. wore a spiral tribe shirt so they get passing grade at least jaycie carver - didnt see her set but heard it. sounded like last time: junk metal dark ambient pervert ward - gorgeous late-era whitehouse screeching noise and a... vocalist. no comment. reece mclean - #1 tape player in the country. cant believe hes playing wembley this year juicers - this was me and friends. our set accidentally cut short which sucks but we sounded good af and i cut myself a bit on accident louise fristensky - distorted synth drone. rrose selavies - angel hnw guitar and a... vocalist. bbl grinder - didnt stay to see listened after whata on the way home. like death industrial ascites. pretty fuckin boring. sadly 2.5 | |
FormaldehydeWTC (2022)thanks pheebs first track is like power electronics wall. its interesting even if i dont like it a lot. second fixes that with awesome low end. second half is much the same as the first, but i like it a bit more. still need to listen to the bonus track maybe ill edit this entry when i do 3 | |
Caught in the AirUntitled (2025) [Single]Harsh Noise Wall, Ambient Noise Wall i am a building falling over and 24 years of silence 3.5 | |
Kronos QuartetWTC 9/11; Mallet Quartet; Dance Patterns (2011)Tape Music, Chamber Music, String Quartet repetitive, anxious, sampling, death, rhythmic i guess its cool that 9/11 is like "playing" the samples but man is it grating lol. also just doesnt sound that good. mallet and dance were nice though. cover would be good without the text or less text or smaller text 3 | |
猫 シ Corp. [Cat System Corp.]NEWS AT 11 (2016)Smooth Jazz, Downtempo, Radio Broadcast Recordings concept album, history, atmospheric, sombre, mellow and what if... it never happened... well i guess we would get a lot of more weather channels or something. theres something to be said about the ominous vocal clips but they happen only twice or thrice in the whole thing. bleh. never forget 2.5 | |
NovelyGaps in the Fence...I Can See Through (2023)passionate, introspective, depressive, alienation, male vocalist gf said she wants more screamo like this. i recommended funeral diner and øjne, let me know what else i should send to her! not my thing at all though rly its a bit too stagnant and slow; i do appreciate the drumming and thers occasionally a riff that sticks out but this is mostly in one ear out the other. 2.5 | |
I Watched You DieSharpened Lust (2013) [Single]nice super processed crunch. this is what hnw sounds like 3 | |
Silver DovePaper Flowers (2022) [EP]Ambient, Ambient Noise Wall, Drone fresh off that physics exam high feeling good so we had to reup on the dove pretty nice it's interesting the ambient is the bigger focus here. good stuff but in terms of silver dove tier list it is like b tier 3 | |
Pus Filled Ulcer / HydroencephalocystocelePus Filled Ulcer / Hydroencephalocystocele (2025)pfu side is like chihuahua barking vocals lol hydro side is very blown out. i wonder if he actually intentionally changes settings or if he just forgets every time and lazily tries to remake the last session 3 | |
The New BoyfriendsThe New Boyfriends (2020)aggressive, noisy, raw, mechanical highly requested. this is actually the second time ive tried listening, i honestly still havent gotten as much out of it as everyone else. i dig the ultra blown out hifi junk noise but this more sparse kind of playing feels like it would translate so much better live than in any studio recording. IDK. maybe ill listen to tjeir other 2 and see if thats just a me thing. not denying its hype but i just didnt get enough out of it 3 | |
MemoriaMemoria (2024) [EP]good morning. playing a show one day and this band is on our radar. dig the abrasive leaning guitar parts and they got some good songwriting. keep an eye out 3 | |
Sissy SpacekCrypto-Termination / Predator Capitalist (2019) [Single]aggressive, chaotic, dense, noisy, apocalyptic first track is great, classic brash spacek fucking and theres lowkey gore vocsls? second is... curious. not really a fan of the industrial direction, but i guess its cool? iiiiii dont know. titles kinda suck 3 | |
Michael OsterSound of a Dying Hurricane (2012)Rain Sounds, Nature Recordings aquatic, rain, meditative, soothing, instrumental studying / doing hw in preparation for a physics test (rocktime from the future: I DID GOOD I THINK) and a adv linear algebra test (rocktime from the present: havent taken it yet idk) and this seemed like the move and it was. indeed much calmer and more serene than the title may suggest. incredibly crisp recording, feels like youre right there. great audio documentation. wonder what else mr oster has cooked up for us... 3.5 | |
Mindbleeder / Niku DarumaMindbleeder/Niku Daruma (2024)so painfully boring. thought nd would save this but they fucking dont 2.6 | |
C.C.C.C.Test Tube Fantasy (2021) [Single]instrumental, noisy weird that no one has rated this version yet. swirling psychedelic stuff. inspiring. love the high end synths that break through the clouds; lots of proto-wall thoughts. 3.5 | |
Ascites & Stefan GonzálezAnascara (2013) [EP]Harsh Noise, Free Improvisation on paper it seems like everything i could possibly ask for from a release - the blistering intense surgical dissection meets spastic jazz grind improv drumming! but actually it is not really that exciting. gonzalez plays much more sparsely, taking his time but also not trying to fill in every gap, and the trio really dont try to over exert themselves in their noise. it doesnt help either than they are mixed.... quieter? than the drums? the overall effect is something closer to death industrial than anything ascites still, gonzalez is a great drummer and there is a nice lofi charm to this that i like. maybe if this was studio recordings, not just live takes... 3 | |
HydroceleHydrocele (2014) [EP]nice good snare kijda weird mix overall 3 | |
Kevin DrummBang (2020) [EP]so nice. meticulous zillion layer crumpling microsongs and the hum of electricity 3.5 | |
Liam ShurmRegenerative Blackout (2025) [EP]"interesting. a bit too quiet i think. sample feels weirdly aggressive despite how calm a lot of this is. some of the synth modulations remjnd me of autechre which i like." some parts mesh well, some parts seem out of place. will be watching his progress closely. 3 | |
I Watched You DieIn Darkness (2013)really puts the RUMBLE in CRUMBLE! some nice little movements. the weather is so nice today. 3 | |
Uterine Wall AvulsionStolen Semaglutide Abuse (2025)not bad. definitely a gore highlight, very walled out bobby worship stuff that sounds better than most of bobby's output. unfortunately spends like 40% of its runtime on penis surgery samples 3 | |
tabby cat diariesyou make all this seem so normal (2022) [EP]i mean cmon how can you not like it. quiet gnawing at the cables and yearning distant sobbing 3.5 | |
AweminusMake It Bun Dem (Aweminus Remix) (2012) [Single]and please tell me why the fuck this isnt on the after hours ep. literally just the og but badass meter turned up 4 notches. second half is sooo heavy. awesome bro 3.5 | |
AscitesAscites (2010)freshly greened offa blistering noise rehearsal for a 9/11 set, only way to unwind is more fucking noise. goat shit, randa is ripping as fuck here and i love how thrashing this is. A side is definitely more violent and upfront, B side takes its time slowly unsheathing its wet surgical textures... 3.5 | |

aespaRich Man (2025) [EP]female vocalist, boastful, rhythmic, money, uplifting sure. whatever. what are we doing here? even for kpop standards this is soulless. i have no idea what is happening with the first half. the saving grace i suppose is the more rnb focused second half, especially Count On Me, which i enjoyed, but then they close it out on a very very poor attempt at another Til We Meet Again and it just isnt good lol. Rich Man (2025) Review by frankiesocean aespa comes back with their worst album, somehow beating Girls and Drama. And at least with those projects, there were songs that stood out, but that doesn’t happen in this EP. This EP lacks any innovation. Very boring with non-rewarding choruses, no emotion, no sick instrumentals. It’s quite literally Temu K-Pop, and K-Pop is already a Temu version of hip-hop. A lot of these songs legit feel like SM is trying to sabotage aespa. It lacks anything that made aespa special in the first place. As a long time fan, it definitely does hurt a bit, especially with MYs eating anything up. I was lowkey fine with their bsides being shit from a butt, but it has started leaking into their singles and title tracks. SM needs to regroup and talk about what they want to do with aespa. Aespas sound thrives in chaos, unpredictablility, and innovation. None of these songs have any of those traits. It’s sad. Can they come back from this? I don’t know. Just last year we got Supernova and Whiplash, which in my opinion, is their best work. SM is trying very hard to appeal to the west, which in turn alienates their already established fanbase. And… you end up with the “Rich Man” EP, which has no cohesion, no innovation, and no emotion. Rich Man: pop rock, pop rap, 2.5/5 Starting off with the Cher quote, that’s quite literally being repeated 50 times throughout the 3:17 song. We get it, you’re a rich man. Mixing is very muffled for me. Even with good headphones, it’s hard to pick up a lot of details in the instrumental. The song is devoid of any emotion the demo had. The demo was almost grunge, very emotional, and being a feminist in a man’s world. It’s like SM took the instrumental, muffled it, took any emotion out, and gave us the la croix version. There’s not a lot of high or low moments. At least with Dirty Work, there was parts where I couldn’t deny it was good, whether that be the instrumental or bridge. But Rich Man? I couldn’t care less about anything they did in that song. Which is sad. An aespa title track shouldn’t be boring. Also, why are we talk rapping so much? Where are the vocals? Drift: pop rap, trap, 1.5/5 I get what they were trying to do. I really do. But god damn that chorus is very bad. Like extremely bad. I think the verses are pretty good though. I think the minimalist instrumental sounds good in some parts. They needed way more stuff happening in that chorus, though. I have no idea what they were thinking. Very K-Pop, NCT core in the worst way possible. Bubble: electropop, pop rap, 2.5/5 Again, I get what they’re trying to do. The main chorus is absolute shite, but the post chorus and verses are pretty good. The song sounds Sophie inspired, if Sophie’s music was sent to Jack Antonoff, he then had to reproduce it by memory, and then sent to a K-Pop producer to strip it of anything that made it unique. Count On Me: contemporary rnb, 3/5 Its okay. I don’t really have any notes on this song. It has a good melody. But pretty uninspired. Definitely not as good as their previous RNB songs. Angel #48: electropop, and something else idk, 3/5 The most interesting track on the EP. I always think it’s good when I don’t know what the genres on a song are. But the chorus is juvenile, and the talking they do randomly “It’ll always be you..” is really bad. But other than that I think the instrumental and verses are great. It doesn’t feel like aespa, like at all though. Sounds like a song from a completely different group. Which isn’t necessarily bad, when done right, but here it is a bit jarring. To The Girls: pop rock, stomp and holler, 1/5 I literally don’t even want to review this. Straight shite from a tuna can. Yes SM, we aespa stans want MORE MORE MORE POP ROCK BALLAD SONGS!!!!!! What the hell, fuck you SM, it’s okay to revisit the Savage vault, please <3 |

KjostadMusic For Organic Performance (2022)Field Recordings, Musique concrète exactly what it says on the box. kjostad uses lots of organic material and makes some sojnd with it. not his most exciting but hes always got something at least a little bit interesting going on 3 | |
RAPERAPE (2011)cool. very interesting for a pe release, the textures are weirdly crumbly and crunchy in a modern wall sense. 3 | |
SeringueiraSkintight and Reflective (2025)this one is less strictly pure latex input and more or less intimate collage stuff. breathing and some kind of standard anw textures, maybe there is latex movement. its not as good as the other but still 👍 3 | |
Perfected Grave VaultMutative Forecast (2023) [Compilation]chaotic, dense, raw really fucking stellar. the first two are easily some of my fav noise ever, especially the second one. glorious americanoise. the last tape leaves me wanting a bit more... but i guess its okay still. in the end it all evens out 3.5 | |
Heat SignatureDisguised Human Presence (2016)lo-fi, war, raw wow this is good im telling yall the 30 min format for huge noise acts is the move. just totally ear splitting nuts madness fromt to back. not a huge fan of the titles 3.5 | |

Gabrielle LosoncyJudged for Buying Insulin (2022)Free Improvisation, Musique concrète, Reductionism sparse, minimalistic, avant-garde gabi plays with some kind of plastic bottle for 30 minutes. it was actually quite nice when she was a bit more reserved just exploring the textures but she kind of just lets go at the end and it highkey hurt to listen to. 2.5 | |

Sissy SpacekZero-Sum (2025)jacks right. this might just be their best recording with isaac to date. pretty much their set that i got to see only without the amazing live tape elements. still gotta give props to the fucking tsunami waves of noise punctuating each track. packaging and cover are disappointing though 3.5 | |

Dead Body LoveLow-Fi Power Carnage (1995)lo-fi, repetitive, dense, noisy totally fucking massive, exactly what it says on the package. so easy to see why this was so influential on the rita, the long looping sections are exactly what he describes as experiencing a "line" for an extended period of time. perfect lofi texture HELL!! 3.5 | |
Weapons (2025)little movie date night, tickets were so cheap! a step up from barbarian for sure. hes locking in his style, sometimes some inspired camera work; still doing the hyperlink stuff but its less obnoxious here? or its more honest about itself i guess. story works as a good mystery and resolves itself in a nice way. i had a good time 3 | |

sobbing.Tiktok Live (2023) [EP]its actually kinda...good? the pure noise bits are pretty ripping and the actual concept is kinda neat - i fw the subtle collage aspect and also the tiktok "field recordings" in the second track, but the long stretches of dark ambient reverb junk sounds kill the momentum and sour it for me. ill be relistening i think, might be better with some quality headphones 3 | |

Female Autoerotic Asphyxiationa Loner's Morbid Fascination With Skulls, Torsos and a Fetus Found in the Pump Station... (2025)huh. well, it is cool that its so high concept, but like... its kind of just literally gorenoise with sewer fetus and dahmer samples. the concept seems like an afterthought. but it does make me think of The Wild Blue Yonder, crafting a narrative out of found clips, and i do like the incessant barrage of various news outlets' reports on the fetus lol, creates a unique vibe... but also likeeee samples. good bubly vocals. kinda wish it wasnt so mid-tempo. 3 | |

mp3mp3 (2022) [Single]it has been almost 1000 days without you. i have not gone one of them forgetting. too much time i spend writing things to send you or finding things to show you; always asking you what you think or wondering what you're going to say. even more time i spend regretting everything i did say and everything i wish i did. it guts me to admit i wasnt there for you towards the end, the last thing you ever read from me was that i forgot what i was going to tell you. but i know how these things are: we couldnt have been close enough; there was never going to be enough time, i was always going to want one more day. it doesnt hurt any less. all i want to do now is carry you - what i have left of you - with me, everywhere, until we meet again. reminds me a lot of gabi losoncy. not sure we ever talked about her (maybe her collab with the rita). i think you would disagree with the ASMR tag, but then i guess its a good thing you arent here to downvote it 😊 happy 10k 🎉 3.5 | |
DetergeDeity (2014) [EP]i think a good litmus test for me to determine what noise is above the 3-limbo cut is if you can never find a volume loud enough for it: some shit you cant stop turning up. masterpiece of the C5 format. two totally killer screeching tracks with lots of ultra nasty outbursts. pure succinct lethality. both are great, but i think track 1 is the biggest takeaway 3.5 | |
Little FictionsLove & Girls (2014) [Single]weird day at work today because it was definitely buns but it lowkey... wasnt? in a good mood for some reason today and just breezed through all the workload and with time to spare too. but my body is sore my feetsies hurt and i hungy cant believe i ever gave this 2.5 (on some real i will hinestly have to revisit so much wall from my earlier days in the genre) because its so good. perfect crumbling, very subtle cracking. huge low end stuff. so awesome 3.5 | |
Little FictionsIdaho (2012) [Single]still perfect and lovely. so comfortable, like the most memorable heartfelt liveset ever; the kind of stuff that reinvigorates that love for noise. why my friends all hate this ill never know... 3.5 | |
Human Skin LanternsSkin Stripperess (1995)repetitive, dissonant, chaotic, raw, sexual seemed appropriate for the rain idk. still nice but its kind of not as effective for me. definitely really uncomfortable and heat-suffocation; super fucking filthy and unleashed raw perversive sweat-drenched curdling nausea looping feedback agony. my old entry also mentions buzzing insects of some sort, if that helps paint the kind of "action" present in this. but i kind of wish it was just... more violent than that? or at least like half the length it is. i still appreciate the lofi nastiness but its just lost the magic. i hope v2 is more exciting 3 | |
LithopædiaPromo 2020 (2020) [EP]something of a job interview today. epicness ensues... wish yhey werent so dopeness cuz i think they play early af for nse fest and i may miss them. vocals are interesting to me still. good metal writing all around. nice rain today 3.5 | |
AscitesLeak Test (2012) [EP]thankfully this still holds up. infinitely fractalizing textural reflection psychotics and pure aural evisceration randa the fucking goat 4 | |
Kevin DrummPurge (2007)noisy, aggressive, dense, infernal, hypnotic very fucking massive with a capital MASS! if it kept up the energy of the first half the whole way through it would be still peak to me, but weirdly it suffers a similar fate Universal Torus suffers from, somehow feels disjointed (i guess this is several recordings stitched together) and ultimately loses energy in the last third. still, this is pretty damn awesome and one of his best noise efforts. deep textures. nice wall influence 3.5 | |
The Farewell ChapterDesensitizing Your Arrogance by Giving You a Run for Your Fucking Money (2002) [EP]dissonant, lo-fi, chaotic, aggressive, manic revisits equal infinite joy so insanely dense it makes the short bits of guitar only or silence so impactful. every second counts. lightspeed drumming. perfection 3.5 for now... | |
Zbigniew Karkowski & Brent GutzeitUniversal Torus (2022)todays morning is academic noise. definitely huge at times and its interesting all the different movements, but coming back to it it feels less total and more disjointed. zbugniew fell off 😱 3.5 | |
Interracial SexApefrica (2020)misanthropic, sampling, scary, satirical, conscious revisiting its easy to see why i fw it so hard but it doesnt do a whole lot for me anymore. its provocative and exciting conceptually but i just dont care for a few of the tracks. that said, the last two are pretty damn awesome. wish he did more ripping shit like that 3 | |
MachismoSevere Disconnect (2013)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise aggressive, noisy, violence, hateful, dark still easily one of my fav pe tapes ever. first side is genuinely the best shit on earth. just nonstop no bs tearing and annihilation fuck you destroy all life b side gets a bit iffy with the first two tracks. im not huge on the sampling or the looped sample format, but the noise is still killa enough to keep it above water. 3.5 | |
Dave GildenTexas Chainsaw Dopefiend (1996)noisy, dense, chaotic, lo-fi, aggressive waiting to do 10k in the mean time i relisten some things. revisiting with more attentive listening im realizing how compositionally interesting this is. its kind of subversive the way it (to me) comes off as pure longform ripping just looking at the package, but really its like a ton of super varied smaller tracks all strung together. listening in the headspace that it isnt makes it feel like gilden just has an infinitely large setup; so many unique and one-time ideas, theres always something new cropping up and he never lingers or revisits. it definitely is a bit too long, if this was just like 30-40 min it would be so perfect, but still essential for every body in the world i think 3.5 | |
Dead Body LovePuke on My Corpse (1996)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise Wall i get the hype. too lovely. really appreciate the careful blend of wall and dynamic harshes. lamo is so facts about the samples. 3.5 | |
Hypoxyphilia / Niku DarumaNiku Daruma / Hypoxyphilia (2020) [EP]Harsh Noise, Power Electronics hypoxy side is def ripping madness, very slow paced. but niku daruma side is like peak of pe type smish. blistering and destructive 3.5 | |
Alexander von Schlippenbach TrioPakistani Pomade (1973)avant-garde, chaotic, anxious, instrumental, improvisation today starts with some comfy improv. i like a lot of the quieter sparse stuff. idk not huge imapct but deefinitely a fun listen 3 | |
MeltawaylikematterBrand New Colony (2022) [Single]wasnt so crazy until the end. real mind blowing stuff i thinks. could do with less high end frequencies in the piano though 3.5 | |
HimukaltSeptic (2020)holds itself back by trying to appeal to death industrial cliches but there is some genuinely good noise work at display here. lacks impact as well 3 | |
Sunk CostExtreme Concrete (2025)heavy, nocturnal, lethargic, aggressive, dissonant first side is some pretty good cut up rippage, second side is more of that dope wall he played for his set this week. Johnny you may have a strangely large ballsack, but you sure do know how to work your pedal rig. 3.5 | |
Lord SnowHave You Heard of the High Elves (2025)energetic, dissonant, noisy, chaotic, raw no i dont believe i have certainly conpelling and may need a relisten or so. highs are pretty high, but theres a few questionable choices and for the most part its simply just good 👍 further investigation required. good vocals and drums 3 | |
Pig Heart TransplantHope You Enjoy Heaven (2008)Industrial, Noise, Sludge Metal Power Electronics, Dark Ambient, Drone Metal disturbing, hateful, misanthropic, heavy, lethargic got it from the mr incredible becomes uncanny at sludge metal video not rly sludge its more like swans death industrial (aka BORING!) the list of features is misleading as fuck this is lame 2.5 | |
in53ctSeam Ripper Mixtape (2025) [Mixtape]inchresting. new wave is no autotune. kinda wish his voice was louder though, not that i really mind how clean it is i just cant hear it all that well. good prod all around too. last three tracks are a pretty good run. lots of potential 3 | |
SuppressionFractured Landscape (2020) [EP]chaotic, noisy gud tracklist. kinda weird that every song sounds like it was mixed/recorded differently? idk maybe im crazy 3 | |
Zebra Mu / Torturing NurseSplit (2017) [EP]one day kavan gonna figure out this rym shit. one day tn side is very loud dopeness. zebra side is more hesitant and sound design-y. 3 | |
i broke my robotI Broke My Robot (2006) [EP]nice. we already all know about 2 and 3, but 1 and 4 were new for me. i like the very prominent breakflash stuff on 4, and 1 is just nice programming. i just dont think theres enough real juicy bits for me to enjoy this any more though - maybe this is the kind of stuff that takes many listens 3 | |
Slikback & SkrillexKixa (2025) [Single]Tearout [Brostep], IDM, Power Noise, Slimepunk, Halftime noisy, rhythmic, complex, technical, avant-garde wow surprised this is getting like no attention. sounds like a fus b side or something. really cool stuff, i dont think id ever come back but its just crazy as fuck honestly so yeah 3.5 | |
Current ValueThe Edge of the Cliff / Dark Rain (2006) [Single]dark, aggressive, heavy, mysterious, ominous gud darksrep stuff. signature old cv atmosphere (esp on dark rain). nothing super special id say. probably nuts on the dance floor 3 | |
Various ArtistsThe Gift of Noise (1983) [Compilation]never listen to no wave old heads. dont be fooled this is pretty boring honestly, and the noise rock tag is applied very loosely, most of these guys are drum machine acts closer to suicide than they are no trend. speaking of which, they easily outshine everyone else here. i forgot how good mass sterilization is 2.5 | |
The Farewell ChapterThe First Three Chapters of the End of My Life (2001) [Additional release]heavy, aggressive, dissonant, chaotic, noisy slower and a bit less violent than their followup. good but nothing standout i think 3 | |
Холостой выстрел [Holostoj Vystrel]Тотальный Исход (1993)heavy, aggressive, lo-fi, raw, manic pretty creative songwriting that always dances on some kind of tripoint of any number of combinations of different genres but thats whats dope. love the dark weirdo sound, and i really like the vocals, surprisingly. 3 | |
MortemAmputator (1993)dense, misanthropic, heavy, dark, violence im gonna be honest i got these russian metal recs from a mr incredible uncanny vid lol like everyone else is saying its very cannibal corpse worship but its still pretty fun and good sense of riffing. not a big fan of the drum sound tho 3 | |
Аспид [Aspid]Кровоизлияние [Extravasation] (1993)aggressive, technical, uncommon time signatures, complex, energetic undeniably kick ass. the remaster sounds so good, these are some of the best sounding thrash (maybe all of metal) drums ever, and talk about a killer performance. whiplash groove changes and wild progressive songwriting. the occasional breakdown also proves they know how to groove as fuck 3.5 | |
Teenage Jesus and The JerksTeenage Jesus and The Jerks (1979) [Compilation]Experimental Rock, Noise Rock, Post-Punk nihilistic, noisy, raw, female vocalist, misanthropic another BAVE rec. super weirdo stuff but its really awesome. always love the drums in these canon no wave releases; its so inspiring to me hearing how these kids were so violently reacting to all this post punk stuff but they just didnt have the language to express it any other way. 3.5 | |
SuppressionSpiritual Sepsis (2024)energetic, noisy, aggressive, raw, death seeing them live definitely helped me unlock some appreciation for what theyre doing. i think the lamest part is just that this isnt mixed like they sound live, but thats an unrealistic expectation maybe. anyway, its all around really really fun pv related stuff, it doesnt sound like them but just in execution makes me think a lot of the locust. terrible cover but i guess theyre like 50 3.5 | |
Yuno MilesSuper Speed Rap (2025) [Music video]Detroit Sound, Comedy Rap, Experimental Hip Hop, Novelty novelty, humorous, male vocalist HUGE DAY of awesomeness at the venue we all know and love: RUBBER GLOVES REHEARSAL STUDIOS with ROCKTIME and FLAVE first up is Testicular Necrosis with Daniel Ryan and i forgror drummers name. manic insane noisecore (emphasis on the NOISE) with vocals from both. Daniel taps into his lower register which was nice. great grind drumming, fire stop starts. the night starts strong next was Puppy Mill which i have discussed before; Powerviolence with little shaker box noise interludes and some free improv between tracks. i dont love pv, but they are always a fun watch, dig their energy. afterwards was Addicted to Acid with members NoiseAngel, Rick Eye, forgor drummers name, and new addition Princess Haultaine III on vocals. Angel holds down the high end frequencies with her super ugly shredding (compliment) and Rick leads the drummer through some real obtuse noisecore. but the real star of the show is Haultaine: he ran vocals through his own chain of effects and they ended up being louder than every other member combined. huge props for the extremely oppressive extended sludge section. still going strong it was Sunk Cost's turn. i knew of him through BDRR but i didnt really know anything apparently. i guess its just how he normally plays but he stripped completely naked and peed in a trash can halfway through the set. the actual noise was pretty good too Psywarfare i had already seen at flaw but they were a treat once again. very interactive: the set was mostly the little hype dude walking around with a mic and a little effects pedal letting people shout or tweak knobs. ended with the buzzsaw on metal scrap covering everyone in sparks. the actual music was pretty weak but you cant not have fun lol i was a bit nervous Suppression would not hold up, some of their recordings i am neutral on, but man were they amazing. if spacek and cautery didnt follow them up they would have easily been the best band of the night. ridiculously locked in, the stops felt studio quality. love the energy, some really cool drumming too (WTF HES THE CITY OF CATERPILLAR DRUMMER???) no cap though Sissy Spacek steals the night. post-everything noisecore eternally taping itself over and walls of nausea and pinging vibration. no shit, i think at one point isaac's hand wasnt even moving he was hitting the snare so fast the end of our night was Sulfuric Cautery. still just as good as last time but their new stuff is really something else live. isaac just totally understands that the 4 most important beats in any song is the snare hits right before it starts. the riffs were also kinda amazing, underrated feature of their music. ended with an Orchidectomy cover which is awesome as fuck. i bought Subsequent Torture Sessions 2019-2021 anyway bro put me on. very texturally interesting. pretty cool stuff though honestly. yeah animal crossing whatever 3.5 | |
Forever United Ever BrightAllblack Wraith *419 (2022)Cloud Rap, Experimental Hip Hop, Gangsta Rap, UK Drill heavy, surreal, sampling, nocturnal, dark last one of the day, glaive told me to peep. im not rly crazy about fu's drilled n screwed stuff and this isnt rly an exception. occasionally fun or inventive, i like the last track and the first one is cool with the speed changes, but i honestly dont care at all for the actual content here. 2.5 | |
myspacemarkHappily Ever After (2025)Neo-Grime, PluggnB, Wave, Jerk, Trap sampling, urban, hedonism, rhythmic, sexual beh. lots of very predictable sounding deliveries and songwriting. feels like going through the motions or just not risking enough. he has a yungster jack esque voice 2.5 | |
DisconformityDepravation of Stigma (2005) [EP]heavy, dark, aggressive, energetic, bouncy highly requested revisit for slam sunday. never clocked how melodic this is, even the vocals sometimes. not huge on the rap flows honestly. its very traditional sounding instrumentally though, and i appreciate that and its dedication to groove and riffage, but it just lacks something next level for me. something about all of these piecez coming together and not fully meshing 3 still | |
Perforated Bowel Syndrome With Oozing FaecesAdipocere Poisoning Reaction (2016)very lovely bubbling. fun stuff 3 | |
Erotic Scatology / PissLife as a Coprophagic Neurodegenerate #1 / Demo#2 (2025) [Additional release]i think es side was like hydro worship but done well piss was piss. samples ruin it 3 | |

Ampere / Funeral DinerSplit EP (2007) [EP]energetic, aggressive, sad, melodic, male vocalist ampere's tracks are like fleeting car crashes. total sensory overload. love it. funeral diner's is actually more than twice as long as both of their tracks combined and is what one might expect from them but, alas, they are a popular pick for a reason. gorgeous guitar work, stellar songwriting. 3.5 | |
Spring of LifeInterface (2023) [EP]noisy [REDACTED] snipe. awesome twitchy weird noise stuff. sounds like when you play with a quarter inch cable without actually plugging it in to anything 3.5 | |

Different Heaven & EH!DEMy Heart (2014) [Single]female vocalist, uplifting, aggressive, energetic, dense was relistening to some ncs. still love the verses on this could listen to that forever. the drops a bit repetitive esp since theyre both the same but its fine its a good drop anyway. fun fun fun 3.5 | |

CuntsnifferFantasy/I Feel So At Home (2025) [Single]first track is so cute and sweet. love it second is not as good but still nice little acoustic stuff 3 | |
AmpereAll Our Tomorrows End Today (2004)chaotic, passionate, longing, technical, complex does nothing for me. dont like the vocals. which is weird because i still think highly of Like Shadows, perhaps both need a relisten... 2.5 | |
Valentino KhanDeep Down Low (VIP) (2016) [Single]hm. well its definitely... cool? idk its basically the exact same track but with some extra sound design stuff in each drop, like just different textures, feel like it doesnt add a lot. its still fun though. 3 | |
Periphericdisseminationofsyste micpigmestousurticariaPeriphericdisseminationofsystemicpigmestousurticaria (2025) [Additional release]good morning it is the usual and i add things to the database. nice comfy 3 | |
Total SweetheartThe Great Southern Kindness (2024)chaotic, dense, complex wow! fuck my life! i cant believe i didnt listen to this last year when nathan gave me a copy! but now i finally have my tape listening setup constructed and i can listen to my tapes!!! easily some of the greatest noise ever, totally captures what i love about their live stuff but with some really solid mixing - its dense but its crazy how you can hear like EVERYTHING, like ryans modular/sampling stuff that usually gets drowned out at shows. A1 is the normie highlight, but fucking B1 is the patrician pick. like literally recusrive fractal junk noise and buildings collapsing forever in helix patterns and demolishing!!!! 4 | |
Oceanwall, for Deep Sea ExplorationsHiding Beneath the Waves, in Complete Darkness (2018)surreal, aquatic, dense, lonely, lobit i can see why its 2.87 kind of irritating texture, not very relaxing i guess 2.5 | |

Ants in the AfterbirthAnts in the Afterbirth (2023)heavy, dense, lo-fi, raw nice dense lofi rippage. feel like its missing some juice to take it to the next level, maybe just the singular long song formst thats filtering me. the vocals were a dope touch in loving memory of the young justin who sadly banned away last night. we can only hope he went peacefully, singing his favorite songs off of Teflon Don... 3 | |
Middle MassSongs for the Sapphire Hare (2025)pretty cool stuff. got the cd for this when we played with them (of course im listening on spotify though!!!!!!!!) because they were bad ass. its def not as exciting in a studio format as it is live but one key difference is how much better the vocals sound. she can really sing! and the guitars are superb too. i think the drums lose a bit of life, and its also just a bit long at 40 min. still i enjoy most of it and a few tracks are inspiring in a way rly not a fan of the cover lol 3 | |
The Get Up KidsFour Minute Mile (1997)Emo-Pop, Pop Punk, Midwest Emo bittersweet, passionate, raw, energetic, breakup lyrically weaker than their 2nd but the guitars on this are impeccable. amazing last track. will be revisiting... 3 | |
Oktober SkylineThat's How Tripods Work (2005)chaotic, manic, aggressive, male vocalist, uncommon time signatures pretty awesome. great vocals, inspiring drum parts. some of the slower sections get on my nerves but the last track makes up for it. exciting free sass im in a good mood! or maybe im off my rocker again... 3.5 | |
IncapacitantsD.D.D.D. (Destroy Devastating and Disgusting Derivatives) (1995)noisy, infernal, avant-garde, instrumental first track is real good. killer stuff. second one is kinda boring but is interesting from a historical standpoint; proto-wall stuff 3 | |
Oceanwall, for ◄Soothing, Slithering►Slow Down (2018)not sure why the moots have it relatively low, its so comforting... soft rumbling bass and nice little crackling sprinkles. slug 3.5 | |
Current ValueOverflow EP (2025) [EP]energetic, atmospheric, futuristic, mechanical the first track is pretty interesting, dig the drop and the gating in the verses, but the other tracks dont do much for me. i like the verses in the last tracks; i agree with that one person that the way he uses vocal samples isnt bery good. 3 | |
SedarkaShibashi Todomen (2004)instrumental, rhythmic, chaotic, cold, avant-garde nice rainy morning today. i like when it randomly flash floods then the sky be acting like nothing happened. takes a bit to get off its feet but the run from IV to atomhead's remix is undeniably some amazing glitching madness. wierd that all the flashers seem to dislike or not care for it; maybe i'm off my rocker again 3.5 | |
C2952 H4664 O832 N812 S8 Fe4Blood Bags (2025)Harsh Noise Wall, Ambient Noise Wall finally added all the images for this artist (thanks for that tay) so now we can all listen decided to start here bc its relatively short and the cover doesnt suck that much. kind of weird inbetween harsh and ambient wall. big rumbljng bass but its not very loud. curious. the others seem like blaring harsh we'll see 3 | |
The Cherry PointCloudburst (2004)strange. im not huge on the phasing bass stuff. the more distorted sections are nice. slight miss from the phil 3 | |
Convectorh & DJ 0000Bozon (2012) [DJ Mix]this is really nice. i think im in a better spot to appreciate the more ambient flashcore stuff, i should relisten to the vortex comp. not to say this doesnt also have ripping sections but that was my makn takeaway. gorgeous sound design of course 3.5 | |
BLOATED AND DISMEMBER HUMAN TORSO FLOATING IN A PUTREFACTIVE SEWAGE POOLSkeletal Active Carrion Descomposition (2020) [EP]very interesting. nonstop barage iirc. would like to see this project continue exploring this sound 3 | |
DiaphragmaPowerless yet Participating (2025)yeah alright just everyone rate the release i add before i get to it real funny yall. gotta up my stealth it seems... nah im playin but this is more of the one take noodling gore from the split. dont care sorry diaphragma 2.5 | |
Sissy SpacekHarm (2012) [EP]lo-fi, raw, nocturnal, atonal, aggressive indeed, xaman, not harmful enough! as far as brashy harsh noisecore spacek goes its pretty middle of the road. i do like the very agonizing vocals though 3 | |
Mirrors (2008)gf wanted to rewatch with me. kind of a silly premise, who hires a crew of security guards to patrol an abandoned burned down building 24/7? surely it cant pay that much. super duper inconsistent. ending turns into spoiler: click to read. na | |
GobChangNocturnal Bryaaaah (2024) [EP]2 nothing anal cunt covers and then about a minute of nothing noisecore. cmon yall 2.5 | |

Rev3rentDecimate (2025) [EP]heavy, repetitive, aggressive, dense, noisy shave is filtered by brutal deathcore AGAIN (whats up with this guy?!) fat filthy breakdowns and lots of good playing. a few guitar parts sounded insane. definitely higher tier revival stuff. 3 | |
Cystoleptodystostosis / DiaphragmaCystoleptodystostosis / Diaphragma (2025) [EP]wow that first track is. literally perfect for me right now. sick today (yes i called out shave #notsorry) and its healing my brain with its filthy frequencies! second is just like noodling ekit 1 take gore. idc 3 | |
Zero-Risk Syndrome (2014)Kobaryolate to first class today and its so hot its fucking pissing me off and the parking is abysmal but whatever. randomly remembered this; listening to a bunch of osu music today for some reason. i used to think this was so fucking bad ass in highschool. its got a really dark and mysterious vibe to it that i like. coming back its like kinda lol whatever. its still fun but like the samples in the beginning are so dumb and that damn trap section in the middle makes zero sense. definitely more fun for playing maps to. the ending climax is still pretty dope though | |
2SlimeyLive in Bass (2025) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Terror Plugg, Dark Plugg heavy, vulgar, aggressive, bassy, avant-garde feeling a bit sick so fuck my fucking life im not sure what happened while i was gone but somehow 2slimey upped his shit even more. actually insane glitching and crunching 808s that shake the fucjing world. his next album is gonna be peak fs 3.5 | |
Swords2Mr. Take a Loss (2024) [EP]male vocalist, longing, sad, bright, introspective would be a 3.5 if it was just the first and last song. im coming around to his voice. features usually blow. second to last track gen the worst shit i ever heard. ill let shave dig through his discog so i dont have to 3 | |
As the Sun SetsEach Individual Voice Is Dead in the Silence (1999)heavy, aggressive, dissonant, chaotic, raw some autopilot sass stuff. does the job i need it to, otherwise theres nothing special. 3 | |
NeopterygotaInstar Preparation (2016) [EP]cute short noise tracks. second half is a bit slower i like the first few more 3 | |
Pop Culture Rape VictimA Means to a Beginning (2003)im not really sure why it doesnt work at all but it just doesnt. feels like it wants to be humorous party noise ala emil beaulieau but isnt doing enough to be that. idk. either way it was just boring as fuck to me 2.5 | |
UntitledDemo 3 (2024) [Additional release]nice kitchen pot ping 3 | |
ManiaGrotesque Mirth (2011) [Single]good short feedbacking mania doesnt do a lot for me. all his bandcamp covers make me think of Alone 3 | |
Interracial SexNigger Addicted Jackaholic (2019)sometimes effective and blaring other times it goes in one ear out the other. title track was fire. maybe if this wasnt an hour long 3 | |
urethral prolapseSock Churning Instrumentals for Weak Minded Retards (2021)nothing short experiments hate cover 2.5 | |
Interior One / HypoxyphiliaInterior One / Hypoxyphilia (2020)crime, dark, violence, disturbing last one for the day i guess. interior one's side is you fucking guessed it BOOOOOORIIIIIIIIING unfortunately hypoxyphilias side is fucking awesome as shit and rips my little baby earlobes off. good harsh pe stuff wish they had gone this nuts on their solos 3 | |

Decoy OctupusMaster of Disguise #002 (2025)samples 2.5 | |
Brutal TruthExtreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses (1992)angry, aggressive, political, energetic, heavy finally home and now we do chores and rock out to metal 🤘 and play word play on steam half expected this to be some really gay art grind shit (it occasionally is unfortunately) but luckily the majority of the runtime is pretty slangin deathgrind madness. i think if it was cut down a bit shorter it would be way awesomer seems like they either fell of their rocker or grindbros werent ready for their avant sound? i may investigate... 3 | |
Green TeaPrivate Universe (2025)didnt realize bro dropped twice this year (thrice?!) already. i will hear the others expeditiously not as inventive or exciting as arcana, but its still got its highlights. really sonically interesting kind of musique- derived harsh noise stuff that is cool. loses me a bit with the poorly implemented samples (vapor blade... not even gonna entertain ts) but i suppose it does occasionally hit those "emotional climaxes" its trying to find. hate the cover honestly admittedly though the last track is fucking perfect 3 | |
GobChangThe 1st Hate Demonstration (2023) [Additional release]saw a vid from the drummer on youtube and then watched a few more and then listened. they just need to release their live sets as eps i think would be awesome lol. still fun though. needs diff recording though it sounds quite small 3 | |
Oceanwall, for ◄Drumming Pincers & Sideways Walk►Sand Bubbling (2018)actual buns day at work my shoes are fucked so my legs hurt like crazy and they got me everywhere but my damn department whatever we wall indeed, this isnt bubbling, but it is stull really blissful anw anyway! gorgeous and soft 3.5 | |
The Cherry PointRusted Gut (2005)noisy thanks shave. weird how overlooked this is, only 20 ratings and only like 4 of my moots? whatever the case its dope af. classic blankenship ripping. forst side > 3.5 | |
Mania / DetergeGarrulous Opinion (2018)Harsh Noise, Power Electronics doesnt say but im assuming mania is first deterge is second. mania side is like kinda slower typical keith feedback stuff. its not great but its hardly bad deterge lets me down though with some really cliche death industrial sounding stuff like heavy reverb vocals and crawling noise. so boring 2.5 | |
WorshipLast Tape Before Doomsday (1999) [Additional release]depressive, suicide, pessimistic, apocalyptic, funereal another. still pretty solid but doesn't do much for me anymore. i still respect the songwriting and cobvictional performance but i just don't grab onto anything. 3 | |
Dev/NullNecrocannibalistic Vomitorium Demo 2002 (2002) [Additional release]chaotic, uncommon time signatures, atonal, noisy prelistened forgot about it but i remembered when knave amd i talked about flashcore. it's not flashcore everyone listen and downvote that. still cool programming and stuff though really liked first track (reminds me of the worst) and dig dug butt plug (love the synths/melodics). still feels weak in the middle though. not sure why qwertyasdfgey hates last track its fun 3 | |
Discordance AxisUlterior (1995)raw, cryptic, heavy, dissonant, introspective really raw bestial and aggressive. much better than jouhou in my opinion. definitely feel the insect warfare comparisons 3.5 | |
TaintHarming Obsession (2001) [EP]Power Electronics, Harsh Noise some keith today. synth abuse. reeweeerrrwweeeeeerrrr. its okay 3 | |
RH-14RH-14 (2012)lo-fi, aggressive, atmospheric, male vocalist nah this is honestly good in the hood shave. really good guitar in this its so evil and the drums sound really nice. awesome climax at the end 3.5 | |
Omphalectoicxanthopsia / Urinary Tract Infection From Severe Pus Clots / HaemotodipsomaniaToo EXXXtreme for Scene (2008)noisy, sexual why do the moots hate it this iS AWESOME! omph side is ping paradise cant turn it up loud enough and this is easily the best uti material ever perfect mix and sound no bullshit awesomeness haem side is easily the weakest and has too many samples 💔 but is still good because of sound grindcore writing and awesome alien transmission ringtone vocals 3.5 | |
RippedThrough My Eyes (1993)Avant-Garde Metal, Noise Rock, Mathcore dissonant, technical, male vocalist, heavy, uncommon time signatures VERY weirdo. surprised its not agm primary honestly. super oddball vocals that remind me a bit of mike patton sometimes. complex mathy writing that knows how to hold back and just let a groove shine through. will be thinking about this a bit for sure... 3 | |
Blood ClotGusher (1992) [EP]Deathgrind, Brutal Death Metal heavy, vulgar, rhythmic, complex youtube recommend lol cool stuff. really dig the grind influences, especially in the vocals. shame they never put anything else out 3 | |
Textbook TraitorsYou Pull the Strings That Make Us Dance (2003) [EP]aggressive, chaotic, dissonant, manic, male vocalist 1 billionth relisten because i send this to shave and patiently await his score still a classic and didnt realize it was bolded nice. one of my first skramz i heard, holds up surprisingly well still. really big fan of the mix and how well you can hear the drums - a lot of subconscious influence in me and some fun writing there. force fed is still my fav but all of them are really good; very consisten ep 3.5 | |

Periphericdisseminationofsyste micpigmestousurticariaTwisted Large Intestine (2025) [EP]not the best ever but its kind of super inspiring, compositionally/conceptually very similar to what ive been trying to achieve with the two hyb0405 releases; a sound i want to keep exploring even further. sorry for the lame artist self-explanation dont mean to be on some rym user nonsense but its whats relevant to this release for me. i will continue their discography 3 | |
The Tony Danza Tapdance ExtravaganzaThe Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza (2005)uncommon time signatures, technical, angry, humorous, raw really stupid, super mindless, undeniably badass. perfect level of ping - its actually kind of interesting the drums sound mixed like bdm/gore. very grid-like rhythmic stuff thats super fun. easy listening. cliff burton surprise intro will always be in my heart 3.5 | |
C/.Saaryan (2025) [EP]thanks sneed perfect first trsck. gorgeous crumbling and yearning drone. 5 stars second is quite different - screeching synth abuse and dragging and scraping. reminds me of my own noise a bit. still good 3.5 | |
The Mad Gear and Missile KidThe Mad Gear and Missile Kid (2010) [EP]concept album, male vocalist, energetic, rebellious, apocalyptic getting my tires filled. #psi idk was randomly thinking about this. i think i forgot about the lore that its supposed to be the soundtrack for the characters in danger days - conceptually kind of cool. still mostly does nothing for me though, but the second track has a catchy chorus and a pretty slick guitar solo i like. i clearly wouldnt survive too long in their world 2.5 | |
Nero's Day at DisneylandFrom Rotting Fantasylands (2009)Glitch, Breakcore, Electro-Industrial Happy Hardcore, Circus March, Flashcore, Dark Cabaret, Drill and Bass, Synth Punk, IDM manic, surreal, chaotic, noisy, mechanical someone posted this today in the ntx server and i decided to also relisten because i honestly remembered nothing about this other than it being... odd. definitely still is. she's got a super weird sense of humor i guess or shes just fucking weird as fuck. all the circus stuff - and just the melodies and progressions are so obtuse. i feel like if it was way more longform progressive type it would be way cooler, these short tracks just feel like awkward technical flexes and nothing totally fleshed out. that said its still impressive programming and some really cool production stuff in here. probably 5-10 more relistens in my future and eventually will be a 4 3 | |
Discordance AxisJouhou (1997)chaotic, aggressive, science fiction, cryptic, misanthropic listened the other day but forgot to make an entry. its all good grindcore but it lacks the excitement of inalienable, which kind of makes sense. i think at this point in their career it was still chang in charge of all the writing. not to say it doesnt have its moments but it just feels like a totally average experience. 3 | |

SacrificeSoldiers of Misfortune (1990)energetic, male vocalist, raw, manic, apocalyptic thrash metal like this makes me think of my dad. even though he only ever really listened to metallica and megadeth. if i could go back in time i would make him a thrash patrician. nice guitar. good mix. perfect vocals for this stuff. last track is exciting. good cover (not the streaming one) 3 | |
My Chemical RomanceLife on the Murder Scene (2006)Post-Hardcore, Emo-Pop, Pop Punk male vocalist, anxious, melodic, misanthropic, melancholic really weird compilation of live stuff. material from three cheers is split across two different live shows and theres a random bullets track here? its all pretty good nothing wrong with the qualities just such a strange track listing. really like the versions of cemetery, helena, not okay, and ghost of you, though of course nothin tops the studio versions. hes kind of a silly guy. never realized how good desert song is. and bury me in black has some awesome lyrics 3.5 | |

VoivodDimension Hatröss (1988)Progressive Metal, Technical Thrash Metal, Avant-Garde Metal science fiction, uncommon time signatures, dissonant, complex, futuristic contender for the... worst? vocals in all of metal? nah but the raspier stuff is chill i just think his clean "crooning" is so ugly and grating. otherwise its just some weirdo thrash stuff. idk it doesnt do much for me but its not terrible. a few riffs got stuck in my head 2.5 | |
DismemberIndecent & Obscene (1993)death, violence, aggressive, dark, heavy nice good classic desumetaru. its not very technical or speedy but the writing is strong enough that that doesnt matter. forgot which but there was some song where they had this clean-ish bridge and then they cut it off halfway through like fuck that gay ass rock shit this is metal bitch 3 | |

Final Resting PlaceBound by Affliction (2025) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal raw, heavy, aggressive, male vocalist, dark lol im sorry why the fuck are we blowing these guys up? compositionally totally average slam metal. i guess its hardcore leaning but its not like that makes much of a difference. you would think after the plentiful positive reception theyve had their mixing would sound better but this is still demo quality if that. not really a fan of the revival of 90s slam as an aesthetic but its definitely more visuallg appealing and interesting than most hifi grotesque artwork you see these days 2.5 | |

BaalsebubFamine (2022)heavy, death, chaotic, raw, male vocalist last relisten of the night. still a 3.5 but i think we were all def overhating when it dropped. its just really easy to compare it to their debut and say yeah this just isnt as good but its still some lit ah slam. mixing is kind of insane, the snare and kicks have like no attack it feels like and they both just blur into these clouds of frequencies. dopeness. cover is so stupid lol 3.5 | |
RosasharinIf This Letter Leaves Candlelight (2025) [EP]Christian, androgynous vocals, male vocalist, melancholic, aggressive show was good. Deerspine opened. i missed the first half of their set because i was leaving from work AGAIN but the last half sounded good. very post hardcore moving screamo stuff i think. some slutchdge. they are frens our set was fun i thought. it was the same as last time but thats okay cuz its a pretty dope 17 min nonstop kind of deal. didnt have any drum malfunctions this time. Middle Mass was the touring headliner. feel like ive heard of them before but i dont remember. really amazing stuff though, first song sounded like just some really normal maybe dreamy post punk and kim gordon vocalist but they fucking switch that shit so quick. literally one of the most amazing drummers ive ever played with, very talented lots of technique and a ton of stanking flare. singer has really powerful voice and great screams, even though the guitarist was clearly on some shoegays (whammy strumming 💔 (and also lots of twinkly delay)) i fuckin liked what i was hearing. makes me wish that our band could write emotional shit but i dont know if thats our journey right now. bassist was lowkey doing hella but i fw the energy anyway, everyone was just having fun on stage. alwaysneverstays played last but i was regrettably evil and left early, so to make up for it we listen and rate them music later tomorrow i ALSO fucking heard the most gorgeous song ever coming from the other stage at the venue and it was THESE GUYS! I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THEY WERE FROM TEXAS! awesome stuff! i wanted to tune into that other bill of metalcore emo bands but that room its in is too small and i feel weird being like 80 years older than everyone else there. shrug relisten duh its fun love the clean vocals still. feel like they have something great in them thats clawing at the surface trying to break through but it just cant yet 3 | |

WCN: Vomir last thing from the day i listened to is this codpast. fucking really hate the wcn guy hes a terrible interviewer but its okay because vomir just talks and talks and talks; he gets a bit off topic but i dont mind, everything he says is insightful and its nice to just hear him talk, getting an understanding of how his mind works and such. i was already in love with his music and philosophy but the way he views wall music and especially his own work is so fucking inspiring. some serious There Is A Ghost In The Room shit: we are made of electricity. its so interesting learning how much vomir takes from dada and early avant garde but it makes a lot of sense. i think philosophically hes closer to cage than merzbow. got me thinking a lot about wall music and what really matters in the scene. where it starts and ends. i will do some writing maybe. thanks vomir WCN Podcast #22 VOMIR aka Romain Perrot on harsh noise wall, manifestos, freedom, sh*tfolk | |

Penis GeyserPenis Geyser (2025)humorous, sparse, chaotic, manic this is so fucking weird. opens with this really unorthodox guitar noise track and then its mostly what i was expecting from them with some super avant noisecore splicing but then theres like these Mars-esque improv tracks and it finally closes out on some more splicecore stuff. not entirely sure how i feel. will repeat listen. very cool though. should be in jack's "Weirdest Tapes I Own" list! 3 | |
Superstar (1999)completely forgot to do an entry for this yesterday or whenever did a double date with gfs friends it was fun we played Swoop with THE EXORCIST themed cards and it was fun and we ate pizza then did a midnight wendy's run and then chilled to this. was fun. swoop is awesome as fuck. i dont have the snl context for this but im sure the skits were probably more exciting. not a whole lot lands and some of the humor feels so fucking weird and out of place. its also weird how mkg's comedy acting is... will ferrells? there are a few parts i thought were funny or oddly struck an emotional nerve in me. the 'principal' was pretty funny looking. i think the end is a blow out reference. n/a | |

LHDCurtains (2004)noisy, raw, mechanical, aggressive, instrumental played a show with some bands and i sold one (1) tape! i missed most of Darling Farm since i was coming from work, but the small bit i did hear was nice. very laid back stuff; since i last saw them it seems they've ditched the keyboard and are more of a standard rock lineup. we had a good set but some drum malfunctions haunt me Grocer was really fun. very weird case of something i would honestly never listen to but would urge everyone go see live everytime they get the chance. so much creativity and amiable vibes; its like just watching three friends hang out with each other. drummer has some ridiculous parts, everyone does really; its all super super fun and im glad we got to play with them again! Brain Sweat was dope; their drummer upgraded his set and it sounds awesome as fuck. hella cymbals it looks like a bdm kit and hes using double bass now too its fire. i didnt stay to see the whole thing but it seemed to be the usual brain sweating madness relistened on the way home. was in the harsh mood. its such an easy pick for a quick blast, such a massive 20 minutes. although part of me is a bit let down coming back - it still rips but i feel like there could be... more? idk will continue to revisit and revise though i do want to peep their others also to see if maybe one of those is better😬 3.5 | |

VektorOuter Isolation (2011)Progressive Metal, Black Metal science fiction, complex, technical, energetic, male vocalist i drank this nuka cola my stepdad got and it was so fucking sour. like straight up citric acid. its lowkey hella good. dinner was yummy. then we got a free car wash which was fun. last relisten of the day. its still a solid project but idk if i want to leave it at 3.5, it just isnt hella my thing anymore. that said i still love the songs ive always loved, Cosmic Cortex is bad ass, Tetrastructural Minds and Fast Paced Society too. nothing else sticks out to me really. good playing though 3 | |
Nuclear DeathBride of Insect (1990)raw, aggressive, lo-fi, noisy, chaotic another relisten otw to moms. still so crazy. always forget about it but i like reminding myself. gen some of the most insane totally nonsense drumming and guitaring in metal. theres hardly ever room just to find a groove, it feels completely manic like everyone is fighting not to fall over but also super fucking tight. Lori's vocals are so fucing dope and its always awesome when she does her like opera clean riffs. one of the tracks has a free death intro 4 | |
OrchidDance Tonight! Revolution Tomorrow! (2000)chaotic, philosophical, passionate, aggressive, raw relistened yesterday. went to moms for mexican food dinner. still really good, though idk if its my fav of theirs. will relisten to st and chaos again to see. biggest issue is outro song i just think that a personal pet peeve is last songs on shortsong albums being long and slow (i know it isnt all like that but). it would be cool if it was the intro track. it just kills the energy i think idk. i am nietzche is the best shit ever 4 | |
Melancholy contrived and worthless. Fosse almost cucks you into believing his writing style has merit by drilling it into your head for so long that simple sentences start standing out as eloquent scripture just because they are not what has already been repeated 10x over before and after. Says nothing and lacks cohesion or anything textually deep. reads like someones first attempt at seriously writing in a comp 2 course; i just hope he eventually did something worthwhile with his fucking LIFE TIME STIPEND from the norwegian fucking government. maybe i should go be a writer in norway... 2 | |
Hateful Transgression / Jesus Wept / Martyrs of NecromancyHateful Transgression x Jesus Wept x Martyrs of Necromancy (2016)Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal blackened slam... it sucks! proof thst black metal makes everything boring! not really though i can see the "blackened" idea but this is really just deathcore lite or like """slam""" with melodics and "atmosphere". no side really stuck out 2.5 |

CulverBlack Acid Confession (2007)sand grains and the wind seven miles above your head weird to focus in on specific textures dead bodies i am ambivalent about all the thumping 3.5 | |
PrurientPrurient (2007)scary, apocalyptic, infernal, anxious, raw we continue the noise relistening of things. im gonna just say its my favorite prurient. actually pretty easily its my favorite prurient. painful tissue peeling feedback bone-deep knife wounding and generations of sexual pain and abusive isolating neglected beatings. it just doesnt get worse than this 4 for now... | |
MaJackO - Stereo Demoness yes you are reading that correctly i FINALLY beat this one! only took about 8 fucking years!!! but nah i definitely could have grinded a bit harder back then and cranked this out, in terms of insane demons (not that ive really beaten a lot but you know) its definitely on the easier side of the spectrum; its key choke points/hard clicks are actually pretty spaced out and its quite leisurely in its pacing. only requires a handful of specific strats or memorizations to nail. the first cube section is definitely the hardest or second hardest part, or, at least its where i died the most. the second orb click is (im pretty sure) a 60fps frame perfect, so literally like 30% of my deaths are just there. and then you have the really tricky orbs right after which are super easy to mess up, followed by the mirror spam hall which can feel kinda rng at times and be tough to nail consistantly (but honestly its so satisfying getting through it). i also choked way too much in the pre drop right before and during the ball section. even though the first ship looks hard its just finding a good rhythm; its super fun to play i think. the cube after is straightforward. i had to use my mouse and kb for the ufo. the nerfed hands arent hard to avoid but i found it takes a considerable cps to avoid the blue pads afterwards. then theres some loose straightflying and then the other big chokepoint for me. people are saying that one purple orb at 70% is a frame perfect and it definitely feels like it but idkfs. just died a lot there cuz of that. the rest of the cube after is pretty easy to get consistent. then the final ship section. i got super lucky and only died here a handful of times but man is it so nerve wracking; super easy to mess up and requires a ton of focus. i spent probably 500+ attempts in practice mode just in this section. anyway though really love this level. its quirky and surprisingly interestingly designed. love all of majacko's little artworks and he has a very unique way of designing gameplay; i think he demands a lot from the player but he leaves enough wiggle room that you can approach it in many different ways. it ends up being super fun learning any of his levels because theyre really engaging like that | |
Human Mastication / Flesh DisgorgedThe Gallery of Guttural Perversion (2006)Brutal Death Metal, Slam Death Metal HM plays very sluggish and sloppy tempo changes, FD is tighter, more technical and honestly better but i dont like the samples. but the fucking highlight are those live tracks. actual kvlt transcendent metal. excellent find tina. also FD first track intro is true slambient 3 | |
DJ VibesSing It Loud / Obsession (Music's So Wonderful) (1993) [Single]Breakbeat Hardcore, Jungle, Happy Hardcore female vocalist, sampling, party, energetic, rhythmic first track is definitely some dj vibes. very very fun! lovely little breaks. second one im sleeping but i guess its not bad 3 | |
Kaptain CadillacThe Juke Chainsaw Massacre (2008) [DJ Mix]rhythmic fun. nothing as crazy as the title would imply, its a pretty straightforward juke set. 3 | |
chang sFurl Retail UR/UX (2014)soothing, hypnotic, repetitive, mysterious, sampling another (more popular) psalmus for today. definitely peaceful, i dig the new age stuff a bit but its pretty one note and idrc 2.5 | |
RH-12RH-12 (2012)mysterious, dense, atmospheric, male vocalist, lo-fi kind of what you might expect. the midtempo 4/4 dsbm drums are so boring to me but the guitars are kind of insane. on some low low key wall metal type 3 | |
EncephalophonicX (2015)more ed noise lacks the brevity that made chronicity so good but its basically just a longer version. always pleasantly surprising how bubbling this projects stuff is 3 | |
Grunt / PrurientGrunt / Prurient (2006)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise cador's review sums it up pretty nicely. nothing special but if youre a fan of the artists or genre you'll have a good time 3 | |

Acrid InfestationCephalothoracopagus Failure (2022)yep well it's more ducking grind but i suppose its written more tolerable than everything else. its best moments is when its just straight blasting 3 | |
PrurientShipwrecker's Diary (2004)piercing not happy with some noise scores i have so its RELISTEN TO EVERYTHING still 4. totally face melting speaker blowing. and the end. prurient you kino... 4 | |
SadusSwallowed in Black (1990)Technical Thrash Metal, Thrash Metal aggressive, dark, technical, energetic, male vocalist yep we're in a thrash mood because WE ARE PLAYING A NOISE SHOW AND opening for TERROR CELL UNIT! Head Wound Sadism was first on the bill and I FUCKING MISSED HIS SET BECAUSE I WAS LEAVING FROM WORK but i heard it was good! hes awesome too lovely pal it was probably ripping as fuck W.R.M. played next and while i went to go get earplugs he played his entire set! when i got back we convinced him to do an encore which he did for 5 seconds then he left Puppy Mill semi-local noisexpowerviolence plays next and they are exactly what that descriptor sounds like short pv songs with blaring shakebox feedback noise between them. i really like their energy and vision but if i had to give any constructive criticism i would say they should work on transitions between songs (GET THAT NOISE UP AND RUNNING ASAP NO DEAD AIR) and their drummer needs to look a little more enthusiastic for the music they are playign :D THEN WE PLAYED (DEALEY PLAZA) and it was me, Snailmouth, Daniel Ryan, Princess Haultaine III, Big Hole, Nathan Golub and our friend NoiseAngel. we sounded really good this timebecause nathan is an expert mixer and he was letting everyone get some breathing room and "solo" time which was nice. water daniel crashed out halfway through and was throwing these fences around and he cut my arm and leg with it which is awesome /gen and then kavan snailmouth got drool and slobber everywhere on his gear from swallowing the contact mic. i didnt see much of Angel but i think she was running into the audience a lot. cool after us was PRESSER and SIN PAVILLION and TERROR CELL UNIT! NONE OF WHICH I STAYED TO SEE!!!! BECAUSE I WAS SO TIRED!!!! so i was in a good thrash mood and i rly liked their demo so yep. really cool tech stuff though i really liked the drumming and theyve got a good mix of rhythmic straight forward riffs and also mind bending stuff. his vocals kind of hold it back for me and im not huge on the production. 3 | |
Siberian SolutionJämtländskt Vemod (2017)more cold. isolating. very slow. 3 | |
SALEMFuCKT (2008) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]mellow, atmospheric, mysterious, nocturnal, longing a lot of these ive already heard from their other boots or actual releases but i still wanted to peep this one to see how this particular collection sounded and i love the cover :L but yeah its a salem comp of some really good tracks, its more trimmed down than owleyes which is nice though it doesnt have oftentimes! dirt is the best song ever tho honestly. 3.5 | |
GruntSeer of Decay (2006)violence, political, vulgar, serious, atmospheric first disc alternates ebtween like slow meditative (in the pe sense) death industrial scraping samples stuff and ripping violent outbursts. its good but it doesnt do tooo much for me. the second disc caught me by surprise as its entirely junk/clatter noise (with shades of noisecore (i think i heard drums??)) and nothing else. also good and cool but again it doesnt do a lot for me. though i do see why people may regard it as some kind of monumental work in mikkos discog 3 | |
Sulfuric CauteryThree Years of Torture (2019) [Compilation]so awesome just like the most fun you can have for an hour. love their drum line era. i like the tracks that have like black metal esque screech vocals its cool. the live track is so fire 3.5 | |

Dub BukРусь понад усе! [Rus Above All!] (2003)Pagan Black Metal, Black Metal male vocalist, nationalism, energetic, pagan hell yeah. i like when black metal is thrashy its so bad ass and they use an eclectic set of instruments (and theres a dope as fuck synth part??) on a few songs and it sounds really good. still some super gay shit though like that industrial metal part and the last two songs. oh well got 93% in stereo demoness holy moly 3 | |
FFHDocument (2019)i tried to listen to this the other day at work but its literally so loud my airpods were silent lol its fine though just like super blown out really aggro wall leaning stuff 3 | |

CulverEmily (2006)repetitive, nocturnal, dark, noisy, lo-fi left at a bus stop and forgotten about by anyone who bothered to learn your name 4 | |
STAYCI Want It (2025) [Single]K-Pop, Dance-Pop, Contemporary R&B 2-Step, Sophisti-Pop, Electropop female vocalist, summer, energetic, melodic, love well we arent back but... we're lowkey back. title im over its whatever never returning boy is a keeper fs though love the pitch shifted chant thing and super fun beat outro is usual sophistipop bs but its very well written and has a soulful horn solo 3 | |
BranikaldTo Kampf (2000) [Additional release]Pagan Black Metal, Atmospheric Black Metal lo-fi, male vocalist, raw, hypnotic, forest fucking insane quality sounds like it was recorded on a caterpillar. the outro makes you forget youre even listening to metal. i can piece some riffs together still though so thats awesome. wish they used piano in other songs not just intro 3 | |
Heat SignatureTrench Trapped (2025)heavy, war, chaotic, lo-fi, hypnotic chaotic, but perhaps the rip doesnt do it justice. oh well, its the best i have. i appreciate their efforts but they always leave me wanting more 3 | |
The Rita / OVMNThe Rita / OVMN (2023)rita side is typical and characteristic of his late style and is quite boring. ovmn does some crunch on distorted humming buzzing. somehow also boring 2.5 | |
BlodPleasurable Figures in Filth (1998)lo-fi, vulgar, sexual, lethargic, noisy good blod as always super filthy and actually quite ripping. sexual 3.5 | |
She Walks CrookedAs If Through a Veil (2014)sounds like direct input minimal setup. boring sound kind of but i dont mind it 3 | |
Siberian SolutionHisingen (2016) [Single]so lonely 3.5 | |
Various ArtistsMy Back Is Against the Wall (2008)grizzlor very deep bass tones like intense wind and higher quick static. its fine the rita classic massive rita sound. very fucking loud. very violent gasmask like harsh and i can hear a phasing i think then in the latter half it does this shrieking loop or something idk its not the best i think paranoid time i had the chance to actually see this guy at FLAWfest last year but i was too hungry so i only heard his set from outside the building. this wall is interesting though, not the best texture but its got this unique whistling wind kind of thing happening throughout. slow evolution towards the end. cool vomir early vomir is always a mixed bag! definitely concur with velocifish's observation that this might actually be a distorted recording of a motor. theres a pretty gross squeaking throughout the whole thing that caps the possible enjoyment at a 3 last rape usual ramirez style adding subtracting elements and stuff. lots of harsh cracklings like sub stuff 3 | |
CiclopiaThalidomide (2025)good pinging smile i will go through this whole label 3 | |
Gastrointestinal Mucosal Ischemia / Ovarioleukodystrophy / Hamartoma Dacryocystorhinostomy Glucagonoma Defects After Idiopathic Ichthyosis Following Postmenopausal Cervical Kyphosis Fibrosarcoma / Haenolytic Lymphoblastic GestationGastrointestinal Mucosal Ischemia / Ovarioleukodystrophy / Hamartoma Dacryocystorhinostomy Glucagonoma Defects After Idiopathic Ichthyosis Following Postmenopausal Cervical Kyphosis Fibrosarcoma / Haenolytic Lymphoblastic Gestation (2018)1st is cool programming 2nd also cool programming 3rd is peam snare onslaught if only it pinged 4th is nothing crossover not sure i hear any tape, fc 3 | |
V∅Senbonzakura (2016)the kawaii noizu slopfest continues. more straightforward as a tribute than the kyary ero guro ones. utterly soulless. fills me with nothing. the noise is quite varied which makes this stomachable but it lacks any kind of sauce 2.5 | |
Forensic(K)Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (2024) [EP]nice buzz plinging gorb 3 | |
Masturbating Erectionless to a Menstruated Anime-girls RapidlyAbnormal Conduct of a Living Chainsaw (2020)repetitive, raw, sexual, aggressive, male vocalist cool. faint hints of pup samsara sound in here; not as bad as i remember their other one being 3 | |
MazukuErosive Peristaltic Atrocity (2025) [Additional release]heavy, aggressive, rhythmic, technical, male vocalist its good but it doesnt leave such an impression. not sure what the classicalgrinder hype is about 🤔 3 | |
KGMurderous Computer (2025) [Single]dense, hypnotic nice. its cool when the melodies come in, or something. theres something happening in here im not exactly sure what though. nice subtle movements in the wall im honestly probably not gonna listen to the entire comp so its nice that some people are dropping their tracks as singles 3 | |
Pantsu SenshiUltra Mega Super Beep!!!! (2017)last one for the label! though ill probably relisten to orokana's anyway because i miss it actually some kind of cool programming here (u no me). the anime samples are at a minimum, its mostly just buzzing punchy breakcore stuff 3 | |
SadusDeath to Posers (1986) [Additional release]aggressive, male vocalist, raw, energetic, manic posers that died: fuckcomments postalbrained willy rodriguez aturn5 lamo_118 (not a poser but got caught in crossfire 😢) icofromloco greentop drug bug hiromusicmusichiro water daniel 3.5 | |
TorturaThe Process of Putrefaction (1995) [Additional release]actual dog vomit production but lowk its fire and your ears get used to it. nice macho evil death stuff 3 | |
Elisha MorningstarAxioms (2013)slow intimidating junk noise. has its highs but rides the median most of the time 3 | |
MolestedStormvold (1997) [EP]chaotic, dense, cold, noisy, rhythmic this is kind of crazy. definitely needs a melisten. wild structures 3 for now | |
MacronymphaMelting Softly Into Time (2005)harshies. should have listened with files its kinda quiet on youtube maybe ill belisten later. good ripping moments feels dense 3 | |
HeckerPV Trecks (2004)sparse, noisy, instrumental erm this isnt powerviolence cool sound design. very quiet though whish it was louder 3 | |
Lucy Van Peltadvantage Lucy (1998) [EP]Neo-Acoustic, Indie Pop, Indie Rock female vocalist, melancholic, spring, uplifting, melodic some of it kind of feels lounge inspired which i like. very locked in melodies and arrangements 3 | |
Foxxy Dekay / odaxelagniaLolita Lovecore (2009)just a lot of boring ideas. i guess odax side is better but thats not saying much. that promiscuous remix is straight ass 2.5 | |
AkephalAkephal (1997) [EP]heavy, anxious, raw, dark, melancholic lots of conviction, edge and attitude. love the metalcore 3.5 | |
URThe Final Frontier (1991) [EP]Detroit Techno, Acid Techno, Electro instrumental, rhythmic, space, futuristic, energetic bumpin stuff. good loops 3 | |
(Facy)Bleach (Facy’s Version) (2025) [Single]sampling, melancholic, melodic, drugs, male vocalist really fun rework honestly. when he locks in to a good chorus he locks tf in; proves he still has it imo. 3.5 | |
Parasite NurseNorth Dumpling (2020) [EP]spends a little too long dicking around with quiet whatever parts but the loud cut up stuff is genius 3 | |
きゃり エロ グロ [Kyary Ero Guro]きらきらキラー (2016)you lnow the drill. this one stands out a bit cuz they play with the sample a bit more 3 | |
InfibulationInfibulation (2025)evil reverb and brooding 3 | |
RVFSPamyu Slicer (2017)kind of cool that its like one giant track prog lolicore has small representation but its boring as fuck 2.5 | |
Faeces SexCoprophilic Elations & Excremental Orgies (2008) [Additional release]stop start trashbag awesome 3 | |
Nurse UnitDetox (2009) [Compilation]only child dont care for EITHER very borijg sounds and gay delay if i hide better but still just bleh. criminal etiquette such thin grating sounds. second sounds like necrotik in the beginning but in a bad way hush now first one is fine like light screeching kind of. sounds like what hnw is defaulted as. second one is waow MAJOR necrotik vibes especially with that jaggedy loop. its fine though honestly 3 | |
TaintJustmeat (1995)pulsing and swirling. decent slabs of pe but every track kind of feels the same; a more modern production approach would really help! 3 | |
The Amazing KYARY ERO GURO and THE EROGE FANATIC BANDCandy Candy (2015)noisy, manic, sampling, repetitive, surreal the usual kyary ero guro method of interfering noise jpop tribute but this time elevated with the help of some tasteful and exciting kicks! the first track is as you may expect, it definitely does lose some momentum and doesnt really need to be 30 minutes (arguably it may not even need to exist at all), but the second track is where things start making sense. brilliant outro on that as well. could have done without the hidden track stuff but its bonus anyway so 3.5 | |
Climax DenialBandaging Techniques (2023)manic and thrashing and depressive. nice 3 | |
JoliCold. Lifeless. (2015)harsh noise wall. yep its cold 3 | |
Pantsu SenshiHow do I Dance to This!!!! (2017)all done with cds and now im at work. i should have really been tapped into this label back in the day (i regret not buying one of each of their releases) but i only ever listened to orokana bichi's album. not that this is all that good its just like low stakes speedcore lolicore sketches but id just like to have them :p they emailed me a long time ago asking to do a cass of one of my albums but it never went through in time and they dissolved into history 3 | |
きゃり エロ グロ [Kyary Ero Guro]にんじゃりばんばん (2016)same format as the last one i heard. i think these releases are more or less tributes to specific songs rather than like noise + jpop (general) 3 | |
Purge LiquidsAnthropophagic Nekrofluidvore (2024)fucking awesomest bubbld vocals ever 3 | |
Acrid InfestationFestering in Decomposition (2022) [EP]heavy, raw more nothing gore cmon axix im still holding out hope 2.5 | |
Drowned AfterbirthDemo #1 (2019) [Additional release]erm crossover gore but i dont like it so much very trashy for sure 2.5 |
Hate ForestPurity (2003)forest, male vocalist, winter, cold, atmospheric more black 🤘🤘 always appreciate thd vocals and they have good riffage and strong drums. deserts of ice is peak 3 | |
MetrorrhagiaDemo (2016) [Additional release]good ping. smoov 3 | |
VelesThe Black Ravens Flew Again (2004)Pagan Black Metal, Black Metal war, rhythmic, nationalism, male vocalist spending all morning making cds for a show coming up and playing geometry dash. finslly done with all the map packs! got a crazy fluke from like 30% on hexagon force v2 pretty straightforward atmoblack. i like when bm bands use eclectic or nonstandard instrumentation effectively, and they pass the mark here for sure. 3 | |
Acrid InfestationDemo (2021) [EP]aggressive, rhythmic guh pretty disappointing grind drc 2.5 | |
Car BombBlindsides (2025) [Single]Avant-Garde Metal, Progressive Metal, Deathcore polyrhythmic, angular, progressive, heavy, complex really? a second single for a three track ep? they must have some ridiculously bureaucratic contract theyve signed with their label or something. anyway though its good ig not as chaotic as car bomb can sometimes be which kind of helps parts stick out. good guitar tone 3 | |
Unusual AffairsEven Dying Is an Act of Eroticism (2020)good morning its wall. despite the stacked cast here i felt gery ambivalent about it. one the one hand it builds good atmospheres snd i love the deep analogue rumbles but on the other some motherfcuker is in letting loose on these rattly higher frequency zigzags that just dont sit well with me. bleh 2.5 | |
CorruptedLlenandose de gusanos (1999)ominous, atmospheric, heavy, winter, lethargic melistened other day and then the rest yesterday and some today first track alone would be 3.5 or probably 4, some of the best drone metal/funeral ideas, leans very hard into distortion and "heaviness", such cool feedbacking in the background and i love the pianos and the way they play with vocals. the intro could be shorter or louder but i still like it its very melancholic. second track i am actually liking more this time. very longing and languid. like giving up. or just walking with your head down forever 3.5 | |
ForestЗаревом над прахом [Like a Blaze Above the Ashes] (2000)Black Metal, Atmospheric Black Metal minimalistic, lo-fi, forest, nature, cold in a strange bm mood today i guess. very straight forqard, i guess the dark folk comes from the plucked guitar interlude-y sections? nothing standout but its got some intensity and drive that keeps it from being boring 3 | |
CowardVoice (1986) [EP]noisy, aggressive, manic, raw, male vocalist cucked by false noisecore tag again. straightforward faster jhxc. meh 2.5 | |
Grunt / TaintSchoolyard Bruises (2003)cover title and inserts lead me to believe it is themed around well that but its just imagery the music itself felt like it had nothing to do with it and if it did the lyrics are obscured enough that the songs can be completely detached from it. another misogyny sample in here too that was a bit hard to stomach but has some distortion on it so its not as impactful. both sides good normal harsher pe but grunts side is panned very weird idk 3 | |
North CentralDark and Abusive (2024)was going to listen to this instead of canada 666 yesterday but my girlfriends niece was over and this felt like it would be too evil for that and yep i was right its very evil i kind of expected the fa samples but i hate them im going to be honest i turned volume down then on the last track i skipped it cant do it sorry not sorry idc. i thought this would be anorexia themed but its just misogyny submission dominance abuse (ok thats in the title i guess) noise is good though very layered industrial sounding harshes. his voice is weak but is mixed well enough that it doesnt detract from the music. 3 | |
Kind Girl + Cutie GeishaDaisy Chains (2016) [Single]harsh noising weaves in and out of some kind of lucky star sample i think. the noise is nice but the sample makes this a bit too weab for me to enjoy sorry 3 | |
Uretrorragia / Green Blood InjectionA Colony of Worms & Larvas Inside the Remote Globe / The Terror of 100.000 Strange Creatures (2025)uret side is like boring midtempo gore I DONT CAAAAARE!!! gbi side is actually kind of nice its fun comfy horror movie gore i wike it 2.5 | |
LOGAN PAUL IS DEADLOGAN PAUL IS DEAD (2022) [Single]heavy, repetitive, sampling, humorous, energetic before therapy awesome that someone would fucking write a full ass bdm song about this i like the majn riff ifs pretty nice interesting theory also but they did good covering it up with the "logan paul clone" guy. touche logan faul 3 | |
Forensic(K)Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (2025)before therapy nice walled out muddy. good stuff but if it had no samples then well it would still be a 3 but i would like it more 3 | |

Various ArtistsHNW: Alone (2010) [Compilation]YES FINALLY grail tapes pop up on slsk and i download and listen to the Jar. listened over past week. very consistent comp and lots of exciting highlights damsel in distress both sides are very dark crunching and slow moving. lovely. ghoul harsh so muted it borders on anw. sublimely languid. second side is more rumbling grizzlor classic analogue pedal grizzlor sound. first side > second side i am a slut really nice slight phasing walls, a bit of a rough edge. very good. slight movements. longing midnight heat ramirez titles but none of his 'dynamics'. still very good. shining sex more sexual this is crazy though its like very clearly power electronics or at least like the ethos with ultra subdued vocals and maybe samples? and totally washed out noise that is actually quite violent and dynamic but its production gives it a very overwhelming "wall" sound, in a way like much BLJ wall stuff. highlight sjalvhat KT alias so first side makes a lot of sense its very crackling and a bit sparse. rip i have says side 2 is copy of side 1 but it sounds way different! its maybe the same wall but its got another layer of distortion on it; its very crushed sounding. lovely skinflint probably least favorite tape side 1 iz just kinda thin and a bit boring in the first half but has a nice movement later. side 2 has a gross sample in the beginning i dont like and then its just like a normal wall. svartvit quite nice dragging sound, side 2 introduces very pleasing deeper lower frequency sound that i like vomir perfect way to end this comp and these are some of his best walls i think theres a weird very very slight warbling i think i can hear and i swear i can feel some kind of rhythm im going crazy probavly i love wall noise forever 4 | |

Persistence in Mourning / KoufarPersistence in Mourning / Koufar (2009)i feel like persistence in mourning is only notable (at least in my head) as the funeral doom project that collabs with noise artists. both this track and the one from their vomir split leave me totally straight-face bored out of my mind. ill still check out the DBC collab though. Koufar offers some powerful deep PE, very good 3 | |

Vengeance Is Mine (1984)last one of the night. i remember being impressed by a lot of the composition in this. quite subtle, very sparse; heating up under the surface and then exploding in quick bursts. abuse is cyclical. the people that hurt us the most deserve the most forgiveness 3.5 | |
Breezy (1973)honestly have no idea what to say. spoiler: click to read. clint is so fucking good at slowcooking romances. morality vs intimacy. just go watch it 3.5 | |
The French Connection (1971)manic and obsessive. desperate men wearing horse blinders will do whatever it takes as long as it means the job gets done (or whatever their definition of that actually is). handful of gorgeous shots/sequences. way too slow though, it kind of hobbles around for a good chunk of the middle/end and you kind of forget why we're even here for a bit 3 | |
大事件 [Breaking News] (2004)its movie night once a fucking gain so we're watching chino (chinese kino) and playing lots of papers please lots of really cool camera work (apparently what Mr To is known for) and honestly entertaining sequences make this fly by super quick. think its a bit weaker than id like substance wise but the ending is peam 3 | |

Chromatic BastardsAccursed House of Unutterable Secrets (2025)Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Sludge Metal, Pigfuck repetitive, surreal, chaotic, noisy, lo-fi nice. i like the idea of the tape messing with the recording, they should definitely lean more into that. i also think a studio recording of the longer tracks would sound way dopoer and they need more pedals or somtehing. positive direction for the band i think. more noise. 3 | |
Reptilian Sexual PredatorVision (2012)Power Electronics, Post-Industrial Sound Collage, Power Noise, Spoken Word, Interview sexual, female vocalist, surreal, sampling, dark i have too many thoughts i cant organize well. last track is great. so is second to last. harsh violent bits are good. no more beats and spoken word please. and i personally think if you are going to make music about graphic and real CSA you should not reference "hide yo kids hide yo wife" 3 | |

A Scanner Darkly (2006)gf was in a weird scifi movie mood so we picked this. dug everyone in this and felt the stoner bits played off super smoothly; lots of good chemistry here and some fun writing too. problem is that this wants to take itself very seriously at times but doesnt know how to balance both sides so its just like lots of really jarring tonal shifts. i like the ending. 2.5 | |
Pro-Life literally watched this in june and just never made an entry for it lol. just very dumb and messy. kinda feels like just starting a movie about a third of the way in. not sure if thats negative or positive. i honestly have no idea what carpenter was trying to say or do with this 2.5 | |
Degenerated Humanity to Rot Forever / Globozoospermia2 Way Geographical Ignorance Over Postmodernity Cosmopolitical Brain News (2025)first side is so fun lol. i kinda like it its not the best but theres a really sweet ethos to it that wins me over; no setup noise just grab an amp and a cable and start playing around with sounds second side is like hypercybergore which is chill. leans into some splittercore sections i feel 3 | |

Train CemeteryBlack Chapter (2025)it does sadden my heart to give this a closer to average score; i sympathize with how SP feels towards his music, and im elated to read that he is returning with renewed vigor and inspiration, but this merely checks the boxes and is hardly noteworthy. the idea of progressive wall is nice, perhaps novel, but his execution definitely has potential; it kind of feels like a bit of a slow-reeling collage of sorts. i hope to see some further developments from him in the coming years. 3 | |

BoarYou Will Never Be Happy (2015)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise nice diverse array of styles. some decent pe, passable death industrial, lethal harsh noise and even some wall. 3 | |
pinnipedThe Closer I Get to Embracing What We Could Be, the Clearer It Becomes That You Will Eventually Let Go (2025)almost had me. but i stuck around. literal logical conclusion to the noise in ambient noise wall. beyond ridiculously lowercase. the droning ambience does a lot of work here 3 | |
HotbildVemod (2003) [EP]noisy, raw, energetic, aggressive, misanthropic meh mostly boring then they have the audacity to do some gay 8 minute melodic emotional shit in the last one nah 2.5 | |
Genophobic PerversionAutopsied Existence (2025)cool. i thought it would be free slam but i guess its more like meshuggah i or perhaps he really intentionally composed the entirety of this if so impressive. i actually liked the mixing. it feels reserved though, lets get another one of these thats even crazier 3 | |
Niku DarumaLoveletter (2025)very strange. slow and prickly. cool though. funny when they burped 3 | |
The Cherry PointLive Hell 2 (2025)dense, noisy, infernal vicious; hellish for sure. less concerned with atmosphere and more concerned with just killing you 3.5 | |

Vomir + White WidowAdvanced Symptoms of Claustrophilia (2022)good morning. vomir is a stove top turned up to 9, and white widow is the tea kettle about to come to a boil... 3.5 | |
Ghost / infect this pink server!Ghost / infect this pink server! (2020)last one tonight while i read. ghost side is standard fare what i expected for digital anw. itps side is interesting just low wind whispering and droning. not very good but cool it exists 2.5 | |
NSRC01 (2024)Radio Broadcast Recordings, Ambient Noise Wall bweh. warbling aqueous digital liquid texture and occasional radio speaking interference. too audacity for me, but a good sincere effort! 3 | |
VomirUntitled (2019) [Single]AH too violent 3 | |
GougarCold Hard Truth (2024) [EP]deep bass rumble + crunch sprinkle. nice 3 | |
Boar / Bruising PatternBoar / Bruising Pattern (2018)boar rips. perhaps some epic cut up action. bp rips less. i thoguht they only did wall. guess not 3 | |
Crop CirclesLunar Civilisation (1997) [EP]first track is pretty fun. bumping. second is more melodic and therefor not as fun but still passes inspection. i downloaded the version with the other two tracks but i didnt listen to them 3 | |
RotatCarnal Beauty (2016)Harsh Noise, Power Electronics first track is genius last track is awesome and the rest neuter themselves with samples. the noise is good though 3 | |

snoa24/7 (2025)lethargic, lush, depressive, dense, psychedelic very much enjoyed. love how effortlessly he feels on all these tracks and how he kills every style. his flows and overall delivery are so good, really floaty and tasteful. 3.5 | |
himmatBitter Conclusion to a Frail Youth (2024) [EP]bright and melting. perfectly overwhelming 3.5 | |
Nightmare ParkSilent Hill (2018)wasnt expecting it to have so many 'movements'. pretty nifty. i like the anw parts. i wish this project was better with cover art 3 | |
Moonbeam TerrorCoercive Control (2021)dark, noisy, sampling, aggressive, raw egh very meandering. weird instance where more distortion does not equal better music 2.5 | |
GFOTYIf You Think I'm a Bitch, You Should Meet GFOTY (2019) [EP]Bubblegum Bass, Electropop, Hyperpop Scouse House, Euro Trance, Teen Pop humorous, sexual, mechanical, hedonism, quirky boy next door and cool are honestly ass, but superglue and sea at night are good enough for me. fairly straight forward 3 | |
People From Bloomington interesting. people living lives as eternally locked observers projecting onto one another and denying themselves the compassion and intimacy they ridicule their neighbors for, yet just as similarly desire. we are sectioned off into our own grids of neighborhoods, buildings and telephone lines, by our own choosing, whether we like it, know it, or not. darma's writing is quite straightforward in my opinion. he, at times, seems to be trying to weave something grander together, using not-so-subtle repetition or alienating narratives, but i find that it feels both hollow and insincere. he does write some good comedy, though. 3 | |
Carnivore DiprosopusMadhouse's Macabre Acts (2006)Brutal Death Metal, Slam Death Metal aggressive, vulgar, rhythmic, death, violence satisfactory colombian slab. fun stuff. a bit long. samples 3 | |
RosasharinIf This Letter Leaves Candlelight (2025) [EP]Christian, androgynous vocals, male vocalist, melancholic, aggressive gobbler snipe. lovely. great clean vocals. good songwriting. eyes peeled... 3 | |

Wallmaster777 (2017)like rain on both ears/ theres a quiet small hum = instant rokctime love 3.5 | |
goreshit / Niku Darumagoreshit / Niku Daruma (2019) [EP]Power Noise, Power Electronics, Black Ambient, Industrial Hardcore rhythmic, infernal, instrumental, chaotic, noisy niku side is killing ripper abusetronics as expected. they are very good in short doses. cuts you honestly not sure at all what is going on with goreshits side. feels like a complete mess of ideas trying to mask as something it isnt. weirdly enough i think a lolicore gabber song would have worked better here. 3 | |
Decaying FormChronicles of Decimation (2006)uncommon time signatures, raw, complex, technical, death very interesting. lots of technical flares, and the production is quite peculiar; it feels very unpopulated - you can always tell exactly what is happening at any given moment, which in turn helps emphasize the aforementioned technicality of this. good drumming and some maybe unique vocals. ill keep an eye on these guys... 3 | |
Intense Hammer RageAvagoyamugs (2001)heavy, vulgar, sampling, disturbing, aggressive unserious and technically impressive gore brutality. too long for its own good, but never necessarily a dull moment. reminds me a bit of copremesis, or maybe im just off my rocker again 3 | |
MasonnaLike a Vagina (1988)aggressive, dissonant, noisy, lo-fi, raw nice. good vocals on this. b side holds it back since its a bit more lowkey and muh atmosphere but isnt bad. 3 | |
LuminosityNebulae (2024)Brutal Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal, Dissonant Death Metal heavy, surreal, science fiction, space, avant-garde messy and wandering. feel like this could use some way better production. definitely doesnt need to be an hour. cool slams though. curious if they take this project anywhere else 3 | |
Silver DoveConstellation (2023)1 3.5 2 3 3 3 4 3.5 3 | |
FKYAlien's Liriks (1995)cool. a few good ideas. free partying 3 | |
Venta Protesix / VomirSquirting Humiliation (2010) [EP]venta side sucks but is interesting i guess. his idea of wall. vomir side is better than expected i think theres a slight hum underneath the wall that makes me whole 3 | |
b e g o t t e n 自杀(hushwave) - 治愈它 (2018)Dreampunk, Dark Ambient, Slushwave, Chopped and Screwed sampling, atmospheric, dense, cold, nocturnal was in a weird mood to listen to some vapor and i remembered i own this for some awesome reason. generally very boring standard mood pieces. you get what the package says. "ghost" was pretty nice. this also ends with a spooky scary skeletons sample. yikes 2.5 | |
Toshimaru NakamuraSide Guitar (2003)minimalistic, instrumental, cold, meditative, hypnotic relaxing and sleepy. very wide feeling. warm too. thanks mim. 3 | |
Pacing AnimalLittle Ease (2024) [EP]didnt realize he released again until the other week. cool that its wall. though it doesnt do much its still a fun nice listen. intense 3 | |

Olion & Silver DoveOlion & Silver Dove (2025)good amient ness. track 2 is like fridge wall 3 | |
ScathingScathing (2019)listened actually the other day but just now added to rym. very spastic and ripping. even the slower parts are intimidating 3.5 | |
UitgeschakeldPaarlen voor de zwijnen (2025)fucking unbelievably blown out and loud. listened at like 20% volume which is crazy for hnw and it was still so loud. 3 | |
OsamaSonJump Out (2025)bassy, male vocalist, melodic, repetitive, hedonism pretty fun. this would be a 3 if it wasnt for the last like 5 or 6 tracks being goated as fuck. always love how osamason plays w flows. the ok prod gets monotonous for sure so you just have to turn off thst part of your brain. 3.5 | |
Nine ViciousFOR NOTHING (2025)repetitive, melodic, drugs, sampling, sexual for the most part its just decent. i like that zatru is prod here but it feels like hes really holding himself back, though he occasionally comes through with something interesting. first time hearing 9v and its not a bad first impression. i fw his adlibs and when he is just screaming. 3 | |
ÜGreat Dose of Monotonous Techno (1992)repetitive, lo-fi, atmospheric, mechanical, rhythmic cool. not actually as monotonous as it implies. some nifty transitions 3 | |
Di-BitFuck Psycho EP (2008) [EP]Nerdcore Techno, Breakcore, Lolicore heavy, sampling, energetic, manic, chaotic pretty fun stuff. really creative sometimes, but these really dont need to be 5 minutes. i think it takes away from any potential impact. 3 |
EncephalophonicChronicity of a Disease (2011)sampling, noisy vicious. i like how they do samples in this, very exciting. someone should make an ed noise list 3.5 | |
Dull WorldThe Abolition of Breathing (2022)lo-fi bery massive. good comfy analogue sound 3 | |

Bruising Pattern / BarreraBehind the Veil, Where There Is Nothing to See (2025)honestly not that bad but after a day it completely leaves me. bp > 2.5 | |
pinniped / Silver Dovei hate myself for believing in you for so long, when i knew that you could never change (2025)noisy great little split everyone plays on their A game. think i like silver dobes more but the ambient of pibble is excellent 3.5 | |

9090gate90,900 (2022) [EP]bro might just need a new voice or smt. first beats good 2.5 | |
夏宇 [Hsia Yu] & 颜峻 [Yan Jun]七首诗和一些耳鸣 [7 Poems and Some Tinnitus] (2016)poem, suspenseful, female vocalist, avant-garde, dissonant so cool. intimate and sharp at the same time. i didnt bother reading bf translations along with the tracks, as one user eloquently puts, i treated the poems as "tonal pieces where the instrument is the human voice". yan jun goes crazy soft on these; really weird mind bending stuff. i kinda wish i listened sooner so i could have gotten the book 3.5 | |
vergissmeinnichtIch Verfolge Die Spuren Deiner Stille Durch Verfallene Straßen, Bis Selbst Das Geräusch Meiner Schritte Im Rauschen Vergeht (2025)i honestly do not like the second track, and in general its quite amateurish cheap sounding, but there is an amibition and sincerity here that i appreciate. 3 | |
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felis_catusBlue Egyptian Faience Cat Figurine Dated to 1981−1802 BC (2019) [EP]concept album, sampling, noisy, warm, avant-garde well after a lot of consideration and examinationm i agree thisis a blue egyptian faience cat figurine. silly yes but very overahted. some kinda cool ideas here., i like thwe wall track 3 | |
a(sex) / Legs of the Flya(sex) / Legs of the Fly (2015)asex side starts unsure but rips eventually lotf is like boring guitar noise worse quality 3 | |
WallmasterVyresoir (2025)ridiculous i will never understand how he can churn releases like this out. first 10 minutes sound so evil. i love when he does th radio interference stuff that pops up its really cool 3.5 | |
Woody McBrideBad Acid No Such Thing (1994)rhythmic, repetitive, raw, psychedelic, instrumental no there definitely is (you may even be guilty of such a thing, Woody). but theres enough good acid out there that this is still positive in my books. 3 | |
Skin Tension & Anesthetised Culture ClubAgathaumas (2022)first side is ridiculous ACC compliments very perfectly and doesnt overshine or fall under the radar. but then the second side is so boring and no that is definitely not what we would be calling :slambient: in 2025 3 | |
Government AlphaPulse (1998)aggressive, energetic, dissonant, chaotic, dense BRBRRRRAAAAADDDDDDDDDCCCCCCCCCEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHGHGGGGGGGGGGGBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBgoodrippingslowpacedfuck 3.5 | |

Stillborn AberrationStillborn Aberration (2025) [EP]Sound Collage, Ambient Noise Wall wow really cool. very unique take on gore. seems they quit this project but i hope they do some more things like this and try to push this idea further. interesting to me that some frends rated lower than normal 3 | |
Gutrot / DysenteryExcruciatingly Euphoric Torment (2004)Brutal Death Metal, Slam Death Metal heavy, vulgar, violence, male vocalist dysentery side is fine. normal sounding slam. gutrot side is slightly awesomer. good ping. incestual rimjob goes crazy 3 | |
Silver Doveforced (2025)harshes. good morning listene i dont like yellow covers s o much though 3 | |
🦊 & 🦭I Still Carry Every Memory We Shared, Every Promise We Made, Holding Them Close to My Heart - Yet I Know You See Neither Them Nor Me (2025) [EP]mellow, repetitive, dark, ethereal, sentimental not really what i was expecting. its cool though. maybe a bit too much for me. i like that they are exploring a different sound here though thats awesome 3 | |
Snowhowling & pinnipedshirohada (2025)mellow, nocturnal, avant-garde, cold, hypnotic its morning time agian so we lay in bed and stream pinniped!!!!!! lovelyness. soft like blanket and snow. though i dont think its the best plibber its still nice. kinda blew up tho 3 | |
KaynbredCults and Culture (2024) [Single]Spoken Word, Ambient Noise Wall forgto about this. wall wise its maybe the best ive heard from this project. he makes some interesting points about society 🤯🗣️ 3 | |
herozkerokero_house~~clips (。•́︿•̀。) (2024) [DJ Mix]repetitive, peaceful, playful, quirky, rhythmic bery cute lots of lovely little bits. kind of dariacore ethos in a way. they shiuld drop some moar 3 | |
Urinary Tract Infection From Severe Pus ClotsSigmoidoreticulosisepsisopathy (2025) [EP]normal uti business, passes the time. i hoped it would be one very long track but its actually several kinda long tracks (for uti standards). i guess thats a bit noteworthy. 3 | |
Various ArtistsTen Years, Fuck Off (2024)Breakcore, Chiptune, Footwork, Noise very shockingly tolerable. also rather consistently good. occasionally high rewarding, but most tracks simply come and go. the Same Same sample on track 11 was a welcome surprise. 3 | |
Silver Doveshattered star (2025)classic skinning bright fucked wall and layering silver dove you have won the internet today 3.5 | |
Tantric BileBabalon (2025)Modern Classical, Free Improvisation surreal, suspenseful, instrumental, atonal, avant-garde this honestly did nothing for me but the ferocity of the last 2 tracks keeps it in three territory 3 | |
Bodies in the Gears of the ApparatusSimian Hybrid Prototype (2004)heavy, misanthropic, political, anxious, dark coolness. good production 3 | |
Nicole 12Black Line (2011)easily his best ive heard certainly has the best production value and most sonic impact. cover is so fucked it hirts me 3 | |
EncephalophonicSurgical Mods (2019) [Compilation]there are some good ideas here but nothing is especially noteworthy. cool insert and back cover 3 | |
"Don't Worry, You're Sound Asleep And Can't Feel A Thing."III (2025)Plunderphonics, Glitch, Eccojams ominous, noisy can i be honest with yall i lowkey love this and i know like we're all rolling our eyes at the bruno mars sample but this is lowkey dope longform music and they pull a surprisingly rich amount of noise out of the concept. was listening this morning just kept my eyes closed and drifted in and out listening its quite effective. it is cheap and it is def some bandcamp noise though so im not gonna rate so high 3 | |
Important Hair / pinnipedAll Which Surrounds Me Is Grace (2025)Field Recordings, Ambient Noise Wall pinniped side is good as always gorgeous ending. not huge on ih side i do like the tape manipulation sounds i kind of wish this was a collab instead of a split i think they have good sound pallet synergy and theres no tape anw either except maybe some silver dove so 3 | |
Atrax MorgueI vizi morbosi di una giovane infermiera (2001)idk it definitely should be like worthless boring but theres something weirdly soo alluring about it. i dug his vocals and just how minimal and electronic the synths were. the movie dialogue is cool but would probably hit better if i knew italian or had seen the movie 3 | |
Devoured DecapitationAmmunition for the Land Battle (2005)heavy, aggressive, chaotic very awesome. feels unstable. mindless but complex. really weird sometimes 3.5 | |
Struggle SessionStruggle Session (2012)minimalistic first wall is so weird sounding. really cool. second is more normal but also lovely. i know yhis guy 3.5 | |
InnerHateSynthetic Umbilical Supremacy (2006)good slab of colombian chugs. very technical; super intense 3 | |
TaintDau ghter: Victimology 2 (1999)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise a handful of some of my favorite pe tracks interspersed with some interview clips that are both too long and too quiet! not that i necessarily want to hear them... but it makes for a very unengaging listen if i cant hear them at all. i dont think thats really fair though, ill come back to it later and see. 3 | |
My PlagueMechanical Infection (2005)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal manic, technical, male vocalist, disturbing, death so crazy. super forward thinking writing and meshes tech with slam in a surprisingly satisfying and unique way. theres a somg on here where the entire guitar track is comb filtered and it sounds insane 3.5 | |
EncephalophonicBeauty / Death (2011)nasty and depraved 3 | |
Deathkey / 88MMTotal War / None of You Left (2008) [EP]deathkey side is quite violent and slow, like a march. other side is mostly okay but has a really long orchestral sample thing that ruins 3 | |
My Bloody ValentineFeed Me With Your Kiss (1990) [EP]Shoegaze, Noise Pop, Neo-Psychedelia noisy, female vocalist, lo-fi, male vocalist, sensual soepicnick gave this a 2 for whatevrr reason. first track is great. the rest are fine but fly by me 3 | |

WehmutWehmut (2008)cold, nocturnal, dark, lonely, atmospheric slog. gf liked it 2.5 | |
Various ArtistsInfinite Potential (2016)Kawaii Future Bass, Hi-Tech Psytrance, Uplifting Trance, UK Hardcore, Glitch Hop [EDM] only listened for euphoria which still goes so hard but is doubly impressive now that i have a breadth of psy knowledge under my belt. every thing else is either passing or mind numbing; occasionally glimpses of potential but nowhere near an infinite amount 3 | |
DigitalisThe Third State (1998)repetitive, sampling, nocturnal, science fiction, rhythmic deep flow state chakra realignment type spish breakheads take notes 3.5 | |
.u/// (2024)feels odd saying it but this is actually TOO jittery, it doesnt ever slow down enough to really linger on some of the cooler ideas 3 | |
Hydroencephalocystocele / Festering CorpsefuckHydroencephalocystocele / Festering Corpsefuck (2024) [EP]hydro side is good fans will be pleased; noobs this isnt essential fester side is like rawrrghrrrrr rhhgaaaaa 3 | |
Luci4Fuxk Jesus/Dirty Jew/Infidel 666 Based Freestyle (2019) [Single]Sigilkore, Experimental Hip Hop anti-religious, hateful, male vocalist, misanthropic, vulgar doesnt do much for me, but his flow was stuck in my head for like 10 hours after i heard this 2.5 | |
AhulabrumMagonia (2005) [Additional release]Avant-Garde Metal, Black Ambient, Black Noise raw, lo-fi, occult, dissonant, scary slightly more obtuse than the following demo but not quite as interesting as the third. not sure why shave hated it so much. its fine 3 | |
Bile Bitchஔ∰ጃ༽໒✺ (2022) [Single]comfy and quiet. distant. hummmmmmmmmmm 3 | |
YA Л O XFlash Desire (2022) [EP]Experimental, Electronic, Satire Sound Collage, Experimental Hip Hop, Witch House, Hardvapour, Glitch, Chopped and Screwed, Dark Ambient, Plunderphonics scary, lobit, avant-garde, mysterious, ominous really psychedelic. honestly super cool; its low rating seems strange to me 3 | |
Dead Body CollectionIn Her Orbit, I Was Burned (2012)shredded 3 | |
TaintHel-lo (2002) [Single]nice but not as good as the other 3 | |
AhulabrumThe Phantom of Flatwoods (2006) [Additional release]paranormal, lo-fi, raw, scary, noisy a but more straightforward i thought and with worse quality. still nice evilness 3 | |
AhulabrumThe Transitivity of Strangeness (2006) [Additional release]Black Noise, Noise, Black Ambient lo-fi, paranormal, disturbing, avant-garde, noisy ive listened to this like 3 times since id first heard it . cant explain what makes this so interesting to me it feels truly alien sometimes. the guitar tones so good too. 3.5 | |

SIMG Factorial 5 took about 10 years but we finally got there. always a big fan of SIMG's level design and the factorial series' mythos and aesthetic is pure and special to me still. this one feels a lot less locked in and more amateur than 4, though, probably because of the very ugly strobing ship section, and also the weirdly spam-looking ball sections. those ball sections are also super loose with the timing and feel especially janky; there are several points where i choked just about every other attempt. i also choked a lot on the ufo section but that really is just user error. unfortunately took so many attempts because all these chokes and i still hadnt tackled the brutal memory bit at the end. died so many times at 70-85% but luckily clutched that last 15 the first time i made it past that evil ass triple spike. annoying as fuck, but im still a simg truer | |
CaspaTerminator (Trolley Snatcha Remix) / Marmite (Doctor P Remix) (2010) [Single]last one today before bedtime. i used to listen to the marmite remix a lot as a kid - i think i saw it in some mudkip meme; i actually ended up buying it on itunes lol. it holds up tbh, its got a great drop and nice deep bass, cool effects and some tasteful percussion. terminator is pretty boring though. could def use a better mix, feels like theres very little bass compared to marmite, and its just not all that exciting or interesting. So I heard you like Mudkips? Dubkips? (FULL VERSION) 3 | |
WinceMushed Down Retardation (2011)nice good harsh, though now that i think about it it doesnt stand out so much in the grand scheme of things. i wil keep digging through joy de vivre since it seems they put out things i like :) 3 | |
非常階段 [Hijokaidan]Windom (1991)thanks for putting me on, jacket. classic kaidan. "always the same, always something different". so loose and manic. last track is awesome 3.5 | |
Elisha MorningstarEmpty Life, Domestic Bliss (2012)i thought it would be like creppy drone but it was actually evil harsj 🤯 evil and dark. something perverse here for sure. 3.5 | |
Corral ShutScuff Marks (2021) [EP]track 1 is quite sparse but very blown out. track 2 is in turn constant and violent; i expected the second half of this to be entirely like that but track 3 is closer to the first track 3 | |
VomirTransmission pour Clarimonde (2016)very nice. fuzzy. his doll walls are always good 3.5 | |
MasonnaHyper Chaotic (1996)chaotic, noisy classic good old masonna. violent and colorful. even the long closer is enjoyable 3.5 | |
VVUPGiddy Boy (2025) [Single]female vocalist, rhythmic the verses remind me of itzy which is nice. but this is worthless 2.5 | |
CaenWaiting Music (2012)comforting and peaceful. 😌 certainly music for waiting 3 | |
The Cherry PointDeath Screams (2006) [EP]dark, minimalistic, atmospheric, mysterious so cool. not sure why the rsting so low. its like spiders crawling all over. weird phantom drones and blips between squeaks 3.5 | |
VomirUpcycled (2024) [EP]a vomir that went under everyones radars i guess. its quite nice; very low powerful freuencies 3.5 | |
Nelvoroth雑音体操 (2007)Power Electronics, Harsh Noise sampling, humorous, manic, noisy this morning is quiet but warm, and involves going to the store and buying produce. i thought this was something but it isnt. its harsh noise - and some good harsh noise at that. the longer non-harsh tracks leave me unsatisfied but if you cut them out this is a really fun release. 3 | |
Hurricane Season i just finished reading Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor (i like opening book entries with a line like that. contrivedandembarrassing reference). easily one of the most challenging reads ive sat through, content and medium wise (proxy at least had some dynamics to it). but that isnt a negative point of the book. while very sloggy and disorienting at first, the run-on writing style eventually becomes quite hypnotic and alluring - it also helps that her writing is just plain great. mythos, violence and sexuality carve out the world we can see. at times both wincing and empathizing. 3.5 | |
CostCircular Cages of Graded Tin and Rusted Wind (2024)cold, noisy genuinely have no idea what is happening in the first track. sounds like infinite mirror cacophony destruction. the second is much more subdued but is equally gritty. 3.5 | |
Nightmare ParkSlenderman (2018) [EP]good harsh. dark. 3 | |

The Cherry PointBlood Red (2004)hypnotic, dark, aggressive, cold, dissonant took a bit long getting around to this; i should really grind all his stuff soon; its really nice though the harsh section is perfect very slow and meticulous, the anw second half is like a sunset to me 3.5 | |
Missing BoysMissing Boys (2010)its fine. doesn't try to sound like MG at all it's like just regular looping wall ramirez style 3 | |

Absolute Power (1997)surprise movje nught worm. stellar camera stuff as always; he does some vignette stuff in here that i dont understand but is fire nonetheless. the burglary sequence is so awesome. i like when clint plays the untouchable omnipotent badass. he was highkey on some funny ass shit in this. 3.5 | |
CulverMiss Rio (2006)"Miss Rio" is both haunting and ethereal. Culver delivers three ominous drone tracks; the first two represent a much darker side to their sound and feel genuinely eerie, with strange dissonant pluckings in the first track that reappear manipulated in the second. the last track feels like some kind of epilogue to a horror story, it is deceptively calm... 3.5 (this entry was written by rocktime's intern) | |
Blow UpBlow Up (2001)Noise Rock, Electro-Industrial, Emoviolence aggressive, energetic, manic, raw, noisy honestly pretty fun. if it was for a few mid spots and that boring ah last track would be a 3.5 fs gives me lots of locust vibes 3 | |

Otomo Yoshihide / Yamatsuka EyeOtomo Yoshihide / Yamatsuka Eye (1996) [EP]Noise, Turntable Music, Sound Collage noisy, atonal, improvisation, sampling, quirky review sums it up pretty well. not very interesting beneath its surface 2.5 |

FuckmorgueDown Forever (2004)Blackened Crust, Black Metal, Emoviolence female vocalist, lo-fi, death, anxious, misanthropic really interesting. adding breadth to the skramz outfit with keyboards/pianos... its curious for sure and sometimes works surprisingly well. gets a bit repetitive towards the end. shes a good vocalist 3 | |
OnomatopeeeONOMATOPEEE_LIVE_20091101 (2011)the proto haizai sound. i like hearing him or the audience. its slower paced than haizai's stuff for sure but it still works just as well 3.5 | |

tethered to doubtdisavowal (2024) [EP]Avant-Garde Metal, Drone Metal, Noise completely forgot to mention that i played a show a couple days ago with these guys. Bee Blackwell and Glüestick were also on the bill. I unfortunately missed a good amount of Gluestick's set but the bit that i caught was fun. they have a very dirty and danceable sound; not very complex but plenty of detail. Blackwell's set was a pleasant surprise - i had previewed some of her music on instagram and spotify prior to the show and was a bit confused (mostly a one person bedroom project) but she played with a full band. the sound is very 2020s trending alt rock/alt metal but they were quite tight and mixed exceptionally well. shes got a good voice for what shes singing. Tethered to doubt was also surprising. on this ep its very heavy and wall of sound loud fast-slow-fast-hyperslow sludge meats screamo but seeing them live they come off more like black metal noise rock lol. i think i prefer the recordings, but ben is such a nice guy i wouldnt mind playing with them a few more times! 3 for now | |
28 Years Later (2025)saw with gf and many friends. absolutely ridiculous editing. at times contrived and it may not always work, but i really appreciate seeing this kind of experimenting in the mainstream. its a bit gay towards the end, i just wish they didnt play the coming of age angle so hard but whatever. 3 | |
Crystal CastlesAlice Practice (2006) [EP]Bitpop, Electroclash, Indietronica Synth Punk, New Rave, Glitch Pop noisy, female vocalist, disturbing, raw, dissonant this era of their music is so much more interesting than their witchhouse stuff but it was so short lived. alice practice is good, dolls is really sweet, and love and caring is a top oat. airwar flies by me 3.5 | |
⛥ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ (2025) [EP]male vocalist nice cool chillness but the last track is :star: 3 | |

My Own LiesMy Own Lies (2000) [EP]cool. fast. there is a comp of all of their Lies on spotify but i cant find its existence backed up anywhere else... not sure if i should add it here or not. 3 | |

Sadio / PrurientBDSM Atlantic Partnership (2016)sadio's side is electric and fucked up. nice. prurient takes a while to get off his ass but crescendos nicely. 3 | |
Brokeback Mountain (2005)fuckcomments gay ass dragged me to see this he was literally begging it was kind of sad didnt realize this would be so meditative. some opening shots in the town reminded me of benning. lots of surprisingly interesting composition in this whole thing. naturalistic beauty. does god punish us for listening to our hearts? 3.5 | |

TorturorTorturor (2005)heavy gore nothing. for whatever reason the bandcamp issue is completely different in terms of track times and i have to assume based off some preliminary research that its because of all the fucking samples. why did yall do that 2.5 | |
PhyllomedusaDeath to All but Frognoise (2024) [EP]Gorenoise, Extratone, Harsh Noise chaotic, cryptic, noisy, animals, avant-garde hesitant to give him that 3.5 but the second track is actually awesomeness as fuck. lmk what you think shavecomments 3.5 | |

NosferatruxeNosferatruxe (2018)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal technical, heavy, surreal, dark, abstract so fucking insane. like incomprehensible wall type smish. the drums sound like post-colombian trash can with zero low end; literally no other metal album sounds like this. somehow manages to also be heavy as fuck 3.5 | |

MasK463 - Surrealism been playing gd again and i figured i kinda want to talk about some of the levels i beat when i beat them if i have something to say. was able to knock this out in an hour or so, its pretty straightforward esp for a MasK level, with just a few key parts that kept tripping me up. i really like how he plays with choice in this, a lot of interesting fake-outs or semi-auto sections, like the beginning or the ball sections. speaking of which, those ball sections really killed me, some pretty tight timing compared to the rest of the level and i kept choking on the last one. the end feels a bit rushed. i just have one more demon from him and ill have finished all of his, ill try to do that later, first i want to beat something that isnt mask lol | |
Mental ApraxiaCinical - Hypocritical Existence (2006)lo-fi, heavy, rhythmic, repetitive, raw bar the last three tracks its just a good bdm record, plenty of exciting neck breaking parts. but bro those last three tracks. divine intervention; no spoilers, go try it for yourself. 4 | |
Les dames du bois de Boulogne [The Ladies of the Bois de Boulogne] (1945)nice stuff. feels similarly swift-paced as Angels. hes got a stronger emphasis on characterization and micro transactions; tragic but hopeful. 3 | |
Myrmecophaga TridactylaRectal Regurgitation (2025)mindless nothing gore wallpaper noise 2.5 | |

CryptopsyAn Insatiable Violence (2025)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal manic, chaotic, male vocalist, technical, energetic definitely better than their last 2, but not as good or on par with the tome eps. probably just another paycheck. a handful of interesting parts. i really wish we would move past this drum sound 3 | |

HysterorrhexisMaggots Infest the Limb (2021)aggressive, rhythmic, vulgar, heavy, dense sars fucking covid. i DARE you to name something more brutal. 2.5 | |
Gorged BileSubconscious (2020) [EP]more just good. better production i guess but it sounds like theyve gone nowhere from their first ep 3 | |
Sulfuric CauterySubsequent Torture Sessions 2019-2021 (2025) [Compilation]lalalalala lalala lalala, hohohohohoooo 3.5 | |

WormeatenTortured Cadaveric Humanity (2005)heavy, misanthropic, technical, vulgar, hateful good and manic, not so sure about the mindly rotten comparison though. youtube rip sounded like it was losing bluetooth connection or smth sometimes lol 3 | |

Cerebral EngorgementOrgasmica (2011)you can definitely tell this is just some guys fuckin around. ill never understand if you have the capabilities to program bdm why you wouldnt crank everything up to 11 but what do i know 2.5 | |
CuntsnifferThe Perfect Murder (2025) [EP]nothing "metal" 2.5 | |
Cuntsniffer~ (2025) [EP]nothing metal 2.5 | |
CuntsnifferSubstitution (2024)nice, though it suffers from the same things their first album suffered from. not so focused; for whatever reason this also includes two (maybe more) previously released tracks. 3 | |
DiamondsonmydickSuccubus (2021) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Trap, Cloud Rap male vocalist meh. its not terrible but domd has very little presence and the beat is so quiet. marjorie hardly tries yet ends up carrying the entire track 2.5 | |
SubhumanityDemo (2022) [EP]Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal aggressive, manic, disturbing, dark, improvisation pretty cool. first track sounds like enmity-lite. wouldve loved to hear a full length from them 3 | |
CuntsnifferStop Clinging On (2025) [EP]yep that first track is like the most amazing stuff ever. everything else is a perfectly fine slab of cute bit sounds 3.5 | |
Pierrot le fou (1965)it's easily the best of his movies ive seen so far, although im still very partial to woman is a woman's more consistent upbeatedness, i think formally this is much more locked in and exciting. hes really mastered his editing, and despite the runtime hitting 2 hours it never lets up really. ill always have a soft spot for theatrical lighting stuff - the first half of this is so exciting how he plays with that kind of stuff, and i love watching his actors explore physical spaces - the "stages" - it keeps everything really fluid. the latter half loses me a bit as it slows down a bit but he saves it with that goated ah ending 3.5 |
The Shooting (1966)nauseating and slow cooker hysteria. violence and dehydration. its prone to meandering but that end is something from another universe 3 | |
White Hunter Black Heart (1990)its movie tuesday once again and today is clint western godard day. clint goat mode again. you can tell pretty easily its the same cinematographer as perfect world. theres so many of these really gorgeous naturalistic shots and then these shots of clouds that floor my ass. obsession. lets address the elephant in the room. action. 3.5 | |
Dental WorkAnxiety.Addiction.Abuse. (2009)Musique concrète, Experimental sounds like worthless audacity. 2.5 | |

FaecalizedCraniopagus Parasiticus (2025)wow really really good. kinda feels ldoh in execution. drums so crazy the snare is so tinny and feels really boxed in but pings hella. last track is so bad ass 3.5 | |
Jakes3Kout / 2 Steps Back (2007) [Single]nocturnal, rhythmic, atmospheric, instrumental, hypnotic deep wubbin stuff mate 3 | |
Gorged BileRotting Abyss of Time (2012) [EP]this is actually kinda good af. pummelling stuff and some nice riffs. something is holding it back but im not exactly sure what... gonna need FC to lend a second opinion 3 | |

Bleeding MurderCadaver from Infection Massacre (2016) [EP]quite filthy; the vocals are kinda wild. structurally felt like your typical run of the mill bdm 3 | |
Agoraphobic NosebleedANBRx Pharmaceuticals II (2011)Speedcore, Hardcore [EDM], Industrial Hardcore Sound Collage, Power Electronics, Cybergrind, Breakcore, Terrorcore repetitive, raw, sampling, sexual, humorous working on a special metal list, and i have been notified of a new bdm list to plunder, so expect a bit of what both of those entail. really fun. very exciting and always evolving style. lots of cool alien moments 3.5 | |
Last LoginBury Me in the Bamboo Forest (2021) [EP]minimalistic, lobit, lo-fi, atmospheric, mysterious lovely. very quiet, but overpowered by some kind of digital yet naturalistic hum. quite unique. if i had an ambient<3 tag this would be an easy addition 3 | |
Aryan Light 666Demo I (2023) [EP]raw, nocturnal, male vocalist, noisy, hateful the first track actually sounds decent, production isnt so bad. the dark ambient is interesting, but it and the other two tracks are just boring. 2.5 | |
Atka / SwarrrmAtka / Swarrrm (2010) [EP]triumphant, heavy, aggressive, lo-fi, melodic swarrrms side is nothing whatever worthless yeah grind okay but atkas track is literally insane as fuck 3 | |
Various ArtistsAmmunition & Blackdown Present: The Roots of Dubstep (2006) [Compilation]repetitive, rhythmic, minimalistic, instrumental overall a decent selection of tracks outlining a vague evolution; but man the last third is some seriously exciting stuff 3 | |
Puppet & The Eden ProjectThe Fire (2015) [Single]Festival Progressive House, Electro House anthemic, uplifting, energetic, passionate, male vocalist ive never actually heard this before today, somehow missed it when i was younger. lovely though. really cathartic chorus. its mastered really really loud. not huge on the verses but they fly by 3.5 | |
CuntsnifferFor Your Amusement (2024)aggressive, chaotic, melodic, harsh vocals, androgynous vocals really good. way more exciting than their last and without all the pointless instrumentals. lots of cute fun stuff. very good songwriting 3.5 | |
ByoNoiseGeneratorSubnormal Dives (2025)Brutal Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal, Deathgrind Technical Death Metal, Free Jazz, Mathcore, Jazz Fusion technical, dense, avant-garde, aggressive, maximalist what the motherfucking fuck bitch its crazy how they still have the sauce like drums sound amazing really locked in ping and the jazz flares feel so natural. even stuff like naked city can feel a bit jarring at times (not that its bad though) but byo makes it work really well. first track genuinely one of the best metal songs oat. so emotional 3.5 | |
On The Beach very painfully optimistic; Shute's writing is plain but his story is effective. i dont think he's dumb, this isnt a story about realism. its neither one about mystery or spectacle. clearly not interested in the downfall of society, structure, government, laws or even work life; Shute paints an idyllic picture of the pre-apocalypse and meditates. "That's what animals do ... they creep away into holes and die." going in i expected it to be a bit of a slower and more depressing read but i really wasnt ready for the slowburn romance of it. i also found it curious how little time we spend on the "big cruise" that the synopsis teases; most all of this takes place in one town and at a few key locations. its not without its faults though. this was clearly written in a time when women tended to the home and men went to work; the perfect day is a wife cooking food and yardwork at your disposal. Moira's character does offer a kind of glimpse into the future - a new generation of liberated women turning the tide and working for themselves - but she also spends half of the book drinking cute alcohol and being sassy... i also couldnt help but feel it being a bit autobiographical. not that i know literally anything about Shute, but i have to imagine hes got passions for racing, gardening, fishing and submarining. 3.5 | |

الجن [Aljina]قطع رأس ثعبان شاشترا (2020) [Additional release]scary, noisy, lo-fi, muffled, infernal never realized that three years ago someone responded to me with a rip but thats cool that this is available now. not that i even remember what their other two tapes sounded like but i would bet money this is their best. really awesome like cooler ac quality. can hardly make out chords. 3 | |
Atka / ShimetsuAtka / Shimetsu (2008)technical, aggressive, angry, male vocalist, energetic atka's side is pretty good; love how dynamic their vocals are. their last track is goated tape. shimetsu's side i could live without. 3 | |
7038634357Waterfall Horizon (2025)Ambient, Progressive Electronic melancholic, lethargic, ethereal, melodic, atmospheric sounds really pretty and quite full; his voice works exceptionally well on these tracks and i dont mind their minimalism. it kind of flies by without leaving much to remember but its not bad. its interesting that these were built out of live performances. seems like a backwards way to write things but thats cool 3 | |
JakesH.E.N.C.H Mixtape Vol. 1 (2010) [DJ Mix]so awesome. way ahead of its time - feels ridiculously heavy. lots of real cool production 3.5 | |

GorezunyanGorezunyan Is Dead (2014)heavy, vulgar, novelty, aggressive, chaotic the dumbass fuckcomments tells me it is "bery clicky". i may have to agree with his dumb ass. thought it would be more mindless; there is an interesting level of development to many of these trax however 3 | |

Various ArtistsDRB12 (2020) [EP]so far the only other dnb drb... but its not nearly as good as the first. a side is quite fun, b side is less fun but still good.. 3 | |

Lucy BedroqueUnmusique (2025) [Mixtape]Digicore, Cloud Rap, Electronic Dance Music, Pop Rap, Industrial Hip Hop nonbinary vocalist, energetic, noisy, dense, futuristic sorry but its like.. really boring. the production is cool i guess but it kinda just feels like Teen Week + rage. she has a really weak presence vocally which doesnt help. not sure why fuckcomments was glazing this so much 2.5 | |
BossfightAgony District (2022) [EP]sampling, aggressive, energetic, chaotic, dense way better than i was expecting. why are we hating on their brostep arc if it sounds this dope heavy space laces/excision worship for sure but they take it in an exciting direction and theres lots of coo lsound design yattayatta you knwo. dgaf ab javeon or wahtever trhe fuck that was 3.5 | |

DJ ScrewJune 27th (1996) [DJ Mix]Chopped and Screwed, Gangsta Rap sampling, male vocalist, crime, lethargic, psychedelic im not gonna be the guy to tell mr screw what he can and cant do on his double lp sets but it would have been super nice if this was just the first couple tracks, the freestyle and one or two other tracks... still some real good vibes and atmosphere. that freestyle track is legit amazing though 3 | |
Embrionic DeathStream of Solidarity (1993) [Additional release]Avant-Garde Metal, Dissonant Death Metal male vocalist, surreal, aggressive, dissonant, lo-fi very very weird. worth checking out just for the absurdity, even if it isnt actually all that exciting. 3 | |

The DeepKilling Me Slowly (2025) [Single]Euro Trance, Electropop, K-Pop Uplifting Trance, Electro House, Witch House female vocalist meh. nothing stuck for me. is the deep really "bloghouse"? i think i understand the sentiment but we need a different tag for anything post 2010 ""bloghouse"", though i dont know if i necessarily want an indie sleaze revival tag... 2.5 | |
Mindly RottenPathological Creation (2007) [EP]Technical Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal lo-fi, misanthropic, raw, dark, violence mindblowing. has to be sped up or something. 2025 we're pushing this everyone tap in 4 | |
Satanic ArmyFuck Christ (2006) [Single]anti-religious, raw, lo-fi, satanism, hateful the rating on this is absurd lol, one review speculated that he was using a shitty amplifier; yall are just inventing stuff to hate drums are insane on this. lowkey avant af; reminds me of early liturgy 3.5 | |
CuntsnifferBoom,Boom,BOOM! (2024)Nintendocore, Screamo, Electroclash aggressive, eclectic fun stuff, but its held back a bit by the onslaught of instrumentals in the second half. 3 | |
Chuck PersonChuck Person's Eccojams Vol. 1 (2010)Eccojams, Plunderphonics, Vaporwave Chopped and Screwed, Glitch, Hypnagogic Pop sampling, repetitive, hypnotic, surreal, ethereal its kind of a masterpiece honestly. dont want to fall into larping review mode for this because everyone and their dogs are doing that but it really is hypnotic. changed the world... but for the better? peep it fuckcomments lmk 3.5 | |

The AbstractThe Abstract (2015) [EP]Technical Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal Progressive Metal, Avant-Garde Metal avant-garde, female vocalist, heavy, lush, uncommon time signatures coolness. very unorthodox. a bit unfocused. didnt realize it was female vocals which is neat; she has a very subdued delivery that makes this feel even more alien. 3 | |
Mechatok, Ecco2k & BladeeExpression on Your Face (2025) [Single]Electro House, Electropop, Dance-Pop Electro Hop, Electroclash, Glitch Pop, Bubblegum Bass bouncy, melodic, male vocalist, bright, party its fine. a more realized version of amygdala i guess. i wish they would stop working with mechatok i never find his stuff that interesting. the synths are nice and theres some cool structural ideas here. 3 | |

DistanceDubstep Allstars Vol. 08 (2011) [DJ Mix]meh i feel like i should have liked this way more but despite all the heaviness it just felt so boring, something missing to make it greater than the sum of its parts 2.5 | |
Disclose / FramtidChainsawsplit-04 (2004) [EP]dont much care for either side of this. good production i guess 2.5 | |
DieselboyWitness the Strength '95 (1995) [DJ Mix]urban, atmospheric, ethereal, rhythmic, sampling nice. real comfy, superb atmosphere. cant go wrong with it. 3 | |
MadeonPop Culture (2011) [Music video]Mashup, French Electro, Electropop, Electro House French House, Plunderphonics, Nu-Disco sampling, playful, energetic, anthemic, uplifting was making a launchpad list on my alt and realized id never rated this. very warm feelings. impossibly fun. not a second wasted; you have to be some kind of genius to even think this up 4 | |
Begging for IncestBlack Lung (2025) [Single]really wordy suggestive review of this on the bandcamp. cant tell if its a one off or if its a lead single. i wouldnt be surprised if this wasnt even them lol. oh whell. its decent stuff. nothing to write home about. passes the time 3 | |
FramtidUnder the Ashes (2002)heavy, war, male vocalist, energetic wasnt even gonna listen to this but i was coming off the tail end of a long 10 hour shift and needed something else. its aggressive. his vocals are almost chud territory but he stays in line. 3 | |
FKYBigHallu (2005)rhythmic, repetitive, sampling, energetic, instrumental free party in the cooler today. i did something to my foot so the left side of it feels like its been bruised on the inside and im limping. im pretty sure i pulled something in my right leg. and my wrist is flaring up in crazy pain rn. fun. last 2 are massive 3 | |
GFOTYGFOTYBUCKS (2017)Electropop, Glitch Pop, Deconstructed Club, Wonky, Pop Rap, Hyperpop manic, chaotic, quirky, surreal, party i used to listen to this in highschool. well not really. i tried. it felt very impenetrable as a kid. i did like my song, dont wanna, and red silver blue though. kind of amazing how shes able to hold my attention with this stuff for 40 minutes. tons of really exciting ideas and she explores all of it just enough, no time wasted and nothing lost. shes a great vocalist with a good ear for melodies and progressions. awesome experimental. i lowkey hadnt heard friday night until today lol, its good 3.5 | |
CursedTwo (2005)Sludge Metal, Crust Punk, Neocrust aggressive, energetic, angry, misanthropic, raw quite solid stuff. very aggressive. could have probably done without the stoner metal track but they kind of get into it at the end so its fine. 3 | |
Paper JamThis and That (2025)female vocalist, playful, lush, energetic, quirky big day for the latinx twee scene. occasionally some great melodies. sounds good. skyscraper stood out to me. 3 | |
ITZYGirls Will Be Girls (2025) [EP]melodic, female vocalist, energetic, rhythmic, uplifting in typical post-Crazy in love itzy fashion the title track here is actually god awful. horrible chorus. the rest are fine. kiss & tell is cool but leaves lots to be desired from the chorus. locked and loaded is probably the best, and promise, the ballad track, was also nice. the closer i could take or leave. not sure how this is getting some of the praise its been getting 2.5 | |
Car BombParoxysm (2025) [Single]Deathcore, Deathgrind, Avant-Garde Metal technical, angular, chaotic, uncommon time signatures, polyrhythmic cool interesting rhythmic motif in this. his vocals sound a bit like mid career shugga. not sure why we need a lead single for a 3 track ep but whatever. good stuff 3 | |
Kode9 + The SpaceapeMemories of the Future (2006)nocturnal, futuristic, atmospheric, sparse, male vocalist on the whole the beats are fine, they come and go but feel good in the moment; nothing sticks for long. spaceapes vocals are great though, weirdly he saved this for me. i love how theyre mixed and hes got a really lulling way of speaking it sounds like nothing else. 3 | |
Ugly Man greetings all and happy pride month. what better way to celebrate than with the coop himself. hes got a very specific sense of humor that is sometimes genius but also quite callous and one dimensional. youngs boys have sex and then kill each other: that summarizes just over half of these stories. youngs boys get high and have sex would summarize the other half. i desperately wanted to find some kind of truth or reflection or introspection in this, i mean the subject matter begs it, but either this is pure comedy to cooper or he just cant bother being vulnerable enough. hes a talented writer, no doubt, but his lack of focus and honesty holds this back for me. cant in good faith recommend this to anyone, if you think you might like it you might like it but if you arent sure then you'll hate it. 3 | |
CokiOfficer / Mood Dub (2005) [Single]sampling, nocturnal, hypnotic, repetitive, rhythmic decent dubbing. dont remember much though 3 | |
The BugJah War (2007) [Single]heavy, war, political, male vocalist, energetic big bombastic in yah face i kind of enjoyed the vocals on this. good rapping. loefah kills it 3 | |

K-LoneDRB08 (2019) [EP]female vocalist some post-bleak chilling after the gas station. been a minute since we've seen a solo artist release from drb. decent stuff. moves yah. 3 | |
A torinói ló [The Turin Horse] (2011)its bleak week at the texas theatre this week! its their first year ever hosting this alongside a few other locations around the country, so i expected the lineup to be kind of entry level but man is it entry level. aside from Killer of Sheep (which was a later-minute addition) this was the only showing i wanted to go to. i digress... second time seeing this and the magic still holds up. cameraman was seriously in his bag; its so cool how he'll hold certain frames in a way that feels totally disconnected from the rest of the preceding shot; the current angle ignores the fluidity connecting it to the last, it feels like watching clouds move - equally hypnotic as well. its cool too that it doesnt ever feel like a "static" camera either, or one that is strictly "slow", the camera reacts just as our characters do: it shies away from and dreads the wind, it peers with curiosity and confronts with intimacy and seriousness; now being familiar with the (most) rest of his filmography its interesting to see how his habits and style has sharpened in this, particularly in his close ups which, in contrast to some of his older movies, are able to really capture the depth and essence of the image. i think there is also an element of meta that hes playing with here, when the neighbor comes over and monologues the end of the world, the father tells him off with one swift line and he merely shrugs. something to be said surely, i am too tired to find out what though... i forgot how religious this was as well. the narration, though sparse, reminded me a bit of On the Silver Globe. during the showing one of the motors went out about 5 or 10 minutes before the movje was supposed to end. a little annoying, but it let me take a potty break so it worked out. however, right before the motor died, during the spoiler: click to read, he says "we will try again tomorrow". i personally thought that would have been a bit of a lovely spot to end the movie. 4.5 | |
Various ArtistsDRB07 (2019) [EP]either im running out of steam or this one was just really boring i said i would listen sporadically but im probably just gonna keep listening to these drb releases back to back to back 2.5 | |
El-Perception / Alec Falconer / Ease Up George / Sky JooseDRB06 (2018) [EP]another fine handful of groj. always some good drums. flexxin was the standout 3 | |
Island Routes / Notre3k / Reverend Slippy / K-LoneDRB04 (2018) [EP]mood is right was nice. the rest fly by but are decent exercises in groj dance 3 | |
DJ CloudsUnited Booty / Raw Silk (2017) [Single]rhythmic, male vocalist real booty moment. 1>2 good graphic 3 | |
ZombyWhere Were U in '92? (2008)Dubstep, Baltimore Club, 2-Step, Jungle dense, energetic, party, repetitive, rhythmic yeah theres a reason its taken me this long to sit through this thing. contrived and boring. i just hate the attitude here. very cocky, and not very exciting. 2.5 | |
BurialBurial (2006)urban, nocturnal, atmospheric, dark, cold this is easy to write off as worse than Untrue (i mean. it is. but). not nearly as coherent or singular in vision, and its a lot more aggressive and grimey. but theres a lot to enjoy still. i think the middle stretch of tracks is where it gets tough - a handful of boring tracks make it feel kinda tedious. the last three save it though. lots of exciting percussion and surprising melodic work. the spaceape feature is interesting 3.5 | |
Ghost / Herb LF / Shorterz & Lopaski / PerceptionDRB05 (2018)all quite smooth; very clean. "Letting Go" is a real gem. 3 |
DJ Backspin / Sully / Etch / Reverend SlippyDRB01 (2016) [EP]rhythmic the first two are quite strong, very energetic, brimming with polish and style. the second two are also good, but leave a bit less of an impression on me. going to go through dr banana sporadically 3 | |
BurialTruant / Rough Sleeper (2012) [EP]Future Garage, Dubstep, Post-Dubstep Ambient House, 2-Step, Minimal Drum and Bass atmospheric, nocturnal, urban, lonely, sombre very fragmental. little mini eps inandof themselves. its a real shame he didnt bundle these with Kindred EP, would probably be another earthquake electronic album and change the scene forever, or something. 3 | |
BurialKindred EP (2012) [EP]lonely, urban, atmospheric, cold, dark wow. this is ridiculous. but where else can you go after Untrue? a return to form in a way, the EPs directly preceding this were definitely fine and Burial, but they leave something special to be desired. its amazing how well he works in a longform format. Loner is quite massive. Kindred is the real takeaway though 3.5 | |
BurialStreet Halo (2011) [EP]melancholic, urban, cold, atmospheric, nocturnal lovely. stolen dog is of course the highlight. the other two are nice, though at times feel like they are simply just floating by 3 | |
BurialSouth London Boroughs (2005) [EP]urban, dark, atmospheric, rhythmic, nocturnal not bad. the upfront dubstep is interesting, a bit aggressive despite what burial is mostly known for. nothing really stands out though; these definitely all feel like bsides 3 | |
BurialGhost Hardware (2007) [EP]cold, sampling, rhythmic, atmospheric, nocturnal title track is self explanatory. shutta is quite interesting. definitely difficult to follow rhythmically but i dont mind. exit woundz is a satisfying ender. 3 | |
BengaDiary of an Afro Warrior (2008)rhythmic, instrumental, urban, party, atmospheric a bit too long but a handful of exciting tracks. hes got great bass sense and amazing rhythmic ability. 3 | |
SkreamSkream! (2006)rhythmic, atmospheric, urban, sampling, repetitive its fine. not everything hits but theres classics here, i recognize some from the allstars comps ive heard. good dub 3 | |
Blood Meridian i just finished reading Blood Meridian (FINALLY) after about a month or two of on and off reading. its a bit of a tougher read honestly if you arent primed for his style but i enjoyed it. hes got a very breadth-y lexicon and his run-on structures are almost hypnotic, his paragraphs play out like paintings rather than concrete descriptions of events. there are elements of existentialism that almost break through some of the dialogue and narration. very violent and apathetic. 3.5 | |
PinkPantheressHeaven Knows (2023)Contemporary R&B, Alt-Pop, Electronic Dance Music Liquid Drum and Bass, Dance-Pop, 2-Step, Breakbeat, Alternative R&B atmospheric, ethereal, female vocalist, lush, romantic wow yeah plenty of exciting tracks. love her production. the wod placement gave me whiplash. features generally hold this back. great voice 3.5 | |
AweminusShort Fuse EP (2017) [EP]heavy stuff 3 | |
E.A.P.D. / Kid Lib / Ocean Inside / EtchDRB02 (2017) [EP]Jungle, Atmospheric Drum and Bass instrumental GOOD MORNING we are listenin to jungle dnb breaks today all tracks great but first two are very special 3.5 | |
Krystal JesusCMIYC (2016) [Single]futuristic, chaotic, mechanical interesting. psychedelic. feels reserved 3 | |
S280F[untitled] (2025) [EP]Ambient, Glitch, Modern Classical, Deconstructed Club, Flashcore surreal, sampling, maximalist, energetic, dissonant some really impressive flashcore moments, but as far as short little eps go its not the most consistent. excited to see what comes of her new album 3 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairBeimax Chessclub (2025)Chipmunk Soul, Future Funk, Pop Rap, Nervous Music, Cloud Rap playful, male vocalist, deadpan, poetic, bittersweet kinda hoped for more but its good still. Operation "Misery", Stalemate, Airliner Tycoon, Chess Games on Phonecalls, A Wise Woman Once Said... its nice that its more classic sounding marjorie. great cover 3 | |
EmotionalsOnnea (2021) [EP]love i like it, its cute. the dnb tag had me worried but it comes off nicely. when i get the chance i will bring this to baby rocktime, i think he would appreciate it more than me 3 | |
GFOTYCall Him a Doctor (2016)Power Pop, Bubblegum Bass, Digital Hardcore, Glitch Pop, Electroclash surreal, love, female vocalist, humorous, playful somehow not at all what i was expecting. lots of amazing tracks. plenty of really cool ideas. some genuinely impressive songwriting 3.5 | |
D1V1 (2007) [EP]while most tracks are nothing super special, Mind + Soul might just be one of the best tracks... of all time. 3 | |
KromestarCoca Cola (2008) [Single]good low dubs... 3 | |
Digital MystikzReturn II Space (2010)minimalistic, repetitive, ominous, rhythmic, bassy interesting for sure but... not really my thing. i respect it for experimenting though 2.5 | |
CalendaForever (2008) [Single]i feel silly for handing out so many 3.5s today but these are all such great eps Forever side is so fucking good, i like imagining both tracks as one big track. amazing deep wubs second side is real good too, real great atmosphere 3.5 | |
Digital Mystikz & LoefahTwisup / B / Chainba (2004) [Single]instrumental, sampling, dark, repetitive, atmospheric twisup and chainba both flex some good drums and lowkey vibes, but B is where its fucking at. that bass... 3.5 | |
LoefahJungle Infiltrator (2004) [EP]repetitive, sampling, nocturnal, atmospheric, mysterious really dug the title track and indian dub. the other two i could t ake or leave 3 | |
Benga & SkreamThe Judgement (2003) [EP]repetitive, sampling, rhythmic, instrumental, urban fuckk yes i love you little banana title track is one of my fav dub tracks fs 3.5 | |
Benga / SkreamHydro / Elektro (2004) [EP]yeah benga seems like the goat his tracks are so good so smooth. skreams is good too love the percussive work on all these 3.5 | |
GhostThe Spooks / Bison 2 / Assasin (2001) [Single]maybe even better than lyrical tempo. first track is so nice, as is "assasin". Bison 2 is good too, but its def the weakest track here... 3.5 | |
GhostLyrical Tempo / Count It Off / Hesitation (2001) [Single]its finally time. been on the queue for like 5 years now so good. just perfect classic smooth as butter stuff. lyrical tempo is prob the best but all 3 feel like a warm bath 3.5 | |
LoefahMud / Rufage (2006) [Single]atmospheric, ominous, rhythmic, instrumental, nocturnal deep and dark. mud > 3 | |
Digital Mystikz & LoefahDubsession (2004) [EP]sampling, dark, rhythmic, hypnotic, nocturnal not bad but its quite slow and lowkey. horror show has good atmosphere. 3 | |
MentaJacknife / Rubba (2003) [Single]holy massive. so fucking cool. very exciting stuff, jacknife my fav 3.5 | |
RoxyWatch Dis / Morse Code (2001) [Single]both tracks are fine, a bit repetitive 3 | |

GhostDance Hall EP (2001) [EP]dark, energetic, rhythmic, nocturnal, male vocalist nothing is too attention grabbing but there are a handful of interesting moments. good atmosphere 3 | |
HecatonchiresBorn Slippy (2020) [Single]surreal, sparse, melodic, atmospheric interesting. calm stuff 3 | |
BurialUntrue (2007)urban, nocturnal, atmospheric, lonely, melancholic well yes its probably about time. all this dubstep and whatnot. its difficult to deny the mastery here: Burial's production methods give way to lots of breath and soul in every track - ghosts lurk around in all frequency ranges, it isnt necessarily just a drum loop and synths, it seems that intangible phantoms and apparitions weave in and out of the spaces inbetween accents and condensate off the exhales of synths or flash away just before the bass hits you. hes also got quite the ear for samples. "Archangel" you can feel the yearning pulling off those vocals. surprisingly, though, my favorite sections are the ambient interlude tracks; hes an expert songwriter and all of the qualities ive lauded thus far are only further emphasized when we arent being lead on by proper rhythmic structure. all of this isnt to say Untrue isnt without its problems. Etched Headplate, the title track and Shell of Light bore me and offer little to look forward to come back to, and the sequencing in general feels like it could probably have used some extra work. its hard to properly gauge exactly what kind of album this is in the grand context of all electronic music or all music in general, i dont disagree with its praise but its image will forever be soured and tainted - unable to determine if it truly stands on its own within dubstep, if its so-far-above-standard production and craftsmanship have skewed its place in the music canon in a neverending snowball of misunderstanding/uneducated accolades. who knows. 3.5 | |
Chef & RamadanmanDubstep Allstars: Vol. 07 (2009) [DJ Mix]oh boy another double disc... chefs side offers a wide range of styles and is kind of all over the place, its the most lighthearted and upbeat mix in the series so far and coincidentally also the most boring. ramadanman makes this daunting 2 disc worth it though with a very classy mix; lots of style, great track synergy, deep atmosphere and plenty of flourishes throughout make it a super exciting and equally relaxing mix. plenty of dancefloor shuffle moments 3, sadly | |
GFOTY & SpineeDog Food (2016)Happy Hardcore, Grime, Jumpstyle, Hip House repetitive, manic, humorous, party, playful always something interesting. lots of great ideas here. i dont love it as much as fuckcomments does but i agree that theres an air of sincerity permeating everything 3 | |
SiegeDrop Dead (1994) [Compilation]Powerviolence, Grindcore, Noise Rock aggressive, political, angry, heavy, raw neat. very aggressive. last track sounds like no trend 3 | |
40GradiHi-Tech Re-Search (2008)noisy, heavy, alcohol, animals, violence sometimes curious, sometimes confusing, but mostly just okay. 3 | |
DubsidiaHere Comes Trouble EP (2011) [EP]biggest weakness of this ep is its lack of brevity without variation. very strong sometimes great ideas and really keyed in sound design but none of it warrants a 5+ minute runtime on any of these songs. 3 | |
PlaqueboymaxFive Forever (2025) [Mixtape]sexual, repetitive, hedonism, fashion, mellow way overhated lol. at its worst its just boring, but after yacht 2 he really locks in and those last 5 alone could be a 3.5 or higher on a good day 3 | |
N.O.D.Niggaz of Destruction (1996)lo-fi, violence, crime, nocturnal, dark nice. good atmosphere. last track is cool. 3 | |
PeKaNoThe Nightmare Is Not Over (2017) [Single]sampling, rhythmic plays it very safe and tries to work extratone into a dance-friendly format. not my cup of tea. i used to be in a server with this person 2.5 | |
S280FMKAU (2016) [EP]cool. clicked for extratone which it was not. i need to dig thru their eps 3 | |
boolymon & MarrgielaaBoolymon & Marrgielaa Final Samples (2024) [DJ Mix]Dark Plugg, Instrumental Hip Hop great stuff. beautiful melodics inspiring 808s 3.5 | |
chuumonundesirable thoughts (2025) [Single]quite comforting. a little tick in the back of your head at the top of your spine. fetal 3 | |
TumourPrepare To Putrefy (2006) [EP]boring whatever goreg (pronounced gorg) goodcover 2.5 | |
EbullienceDemo 2025 (2025) [Additional release]Slam Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal cool. on the free death spectrum it feels closer to composed death but its still dope and chaos. hope more from this project comes to fruition, really love the slam section 3 | |
CxHxAxTxOxUxNxExTxTxExCat Memes Will Invade the World! (2025) [EP]noisy, rhythmic, instrumental thanks adrien, i didnt feel comfortable being forced to download this so its nice to know you were joking. 2.5 | |
ivvysIG Reels (2025) [Single]Arabic Music, Drumless, Digicore posse cut, sampling, quirky, avant-garde, male vocalist zatru is the best producer in the underground right now 3 | |
boolymonAugust Samples 1 / 1 (2024) [DJ Mix]so good hes srsly one of the best producers ever. every marrgielaa snippet is so good i need to hear their mix. so funny how he is always using these like orchestral instruments but they dont sound silly at all 3.5 | |
Shotgun99Green Apple (2016) [Single]avant-garde really cool. theres a lot of interesting timing and cool textures in here, some of it feels like oldschool brostep stuff i like that. i think this would be way less memed if the kicks were heavier 3.5 | |
AppleblimDubstep Allstars: Vol. 06 (2008) [DJ Mix]this volume features a lot of dub tech/reggae influences which is neat. it also features some of my favorite percussion ive heard in dubstep so far, really love the tracks that play around with delay. unfortunately on the whole i think its one of the weaker mixes though; the first 20 or 30 minutes are real slow and it takes a while before i can really get into it 3 | |
A Perfect World (1993)makes a lot of sense this directly precedes Bridges..., its similarly warm and romantic. Clint experiments with the nature of a father figure, religion, youth (catching up to and chasing it), crime and love. subversively introduces itself as some kind of cat and mouse thriller with clint as the seasoned above-the-law detective versus costner's all-brains formalist-criminal antagonist but subtly quiets the engines and slows its pace down as it becomes more preoccupied with phillip's adventure. you can read all about it in fuckcomments' review but those last 20 minutes are some especially beautiful filmmaking 3.5 | |
Body of Lies (2008)movie wednesday escapades continue. todays episode might be particularly grating for some of you very visually locked in - amazing compositional work and set pieces; rooted equally in the digital (surveillance/database) and gritty physical worlds. always on your toes, the pacing is very very fast. substantially not the most exciting of his movies though; incompetent higher ups decide your life or death via remote controls and absent-minded phone calls while their kids play soccer and your love interest is extortion leverage - Mann would've been able to sell this much better, but its not like Scott failed anyone. 3 | |
Phoenix Forgotten (2017)a productive day of chores, libraries, pickleball and chicken. ive been wanting to check out a dvd from a library and try it... just cuz. we had to go to one anyway for my girlfriend to drop off one of her books and while searching for ridley scott films i noticed he produced this (for whatever reason the library in question has his credit for that stored in their database) and seeing as its a low stakes movie that ive had a mild interest in i thought why not. im really not a fan of how they build up the mockumentary half of this, it feels very thin; there really isnt even much to make a documentation of (which is reflected by the heavy amounts of archival footage padding up runtime in the first two acts) so it just gets distracting cutting to interview sections or hearing a score. i did like the very intimate and idyllic filming during the documentary sections though. i really really love the diary element of a lot of found footage stuff and the opening of this (as well as much of Josh's footage) was perfect for that. it captures some really warm interactions, i kind of wish it was just a long string of his clips and news clips without anyone explaining what we're seeing as its happening... the ending bit was honestly a bit exhausting thinking back on it, but there are a few noteworthy moments that make up for it. 2.5 | |
N-TypeDubstep Allstars: Vol. 05 (2007) [DJ Mix]ohhh yes. this is what ive been wanting! aside from volume 4, this mix is very much in line with the goals of the first 3 at carving out and showcasing a unique identity of dubstep (call it a "gimmick" i guess). this time around, N-type focuses a lot on "drops", and the result is a lot of super early proto-ish brostep kind of stuff. the jump from classic dubstep to brostep in the modern context can seem like a stretch but this mix really puts into context how the latter bridged off from the former. really dope stuff, constantly engaging and surprisingly heavy at times. a lot of production highlights 3.5 | |
Youngsta & HatchaDubstep Allstars: Vol. 04 (2006) [DJ Mix]so far, every mix in this series has represented a different side to dubstep's identity (at least thats how im reading it). 01 is just a great introduction, 02 serves deep black sparsity, and 03 dabbles in dub poetry. so 04? well, to start its two discs (daunting); a Youngsta VS. Hatcha situation. but beyond that? both mixes feel equally dark, but i cant help but feel they either retread groundwork laid out in the first 3 mixes or they simply do nothing especially interesting and notable like the first 3 did. that isnt to say these are bad mixes, no, both are excellently crafted and have a handful of standout tracks, especially Hatcha's. but in the context of the series i think these mixes do fall short in that they really arent all that special. oh well. 3 | |
Kode9 featuring The SpaceapeDubstep Allstars: Vol.03 (2006) [DJ Mix]so very cool and alien. while reading A Darker Electricity, when they would mention MCs at free parties speaking or rapping i could never quite get a good idea of that in my head. it always felt like it'd be such an awkward thing. but i can totally see the vision now. even if hes repetitive, theres something super hypnotic and lulling about Spaceapes poetry that makes this such an enveloping listen. and Kode9 has a really great dark track selection, keeping things interesting between verses. some people are asking for less Spaceape, but i was missing him by the end! 3.5 | |
YoungstaDubstep Allstars, Vol.02 (2005) [DJ Mix]nocturnal, hypnotic, cold, dark, sparse rounding off the night where we started the day: DUB STEP ALL STARS VOL UME TWO way way way more stripped back and atmospheric than 01, this is dark shadows and roomy corners all the way around, no lights and tons of smoke in ya lungs maybe im crazy but i kinda preferred 01 more. i fw the vibes here but its not as exciting to me as the dancy more engaging stuff in the first mix. still dope though. very interesting 3 | |
Dropdead落とす死 [Dropdead] (1993)Thrashcore, Powerviolence, Crust Punk political, energetic, pessimistic, heavy, aggressive similarly to Unrest, this is really just great grindcore disguised as d-beat. lots of really stellar songwriting honestly, this is some of the most ridiculous 11-notch violent punk ive heard. amazing vocals 3.5 | |
DisfearSoul Scars (1995)angry, male vocalist, raw, war, apocalyptic dark, violent, oppressive. lovely stuff 3 | |
SkitslickersGBG 1982 (1982) [EP]raw, aggressive, angry, rebellious, heavy pretty hard to hate on it for only being 3 minutes and being violent as fuck. if you can you should hear the reissue with bonus tracks, "The Night of the Holocaust" is insane 3 | |
DishammerVintage Addiction (2008)D-Beat, Crust Punk, Blackened Crust Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Speed Metal misanthropic, dark, rhythmic, raw, sexual meh. really didnt like the vocals at all, some of the lyrics are so eye roll macho it hurts. kinda lame riffs too 2.5 | |
SkitsystemStigmata (2006)aggressive, male vocalist, energetic, raw, dense very brutal and dark. impressive technicality for the genre, may return for more. good cover 3 | |
KuroWho the Helpless (1984) [EP]raw, male vocalist, energetic, aggressive, lo-fi here we go. this is too punk-y 2.5 | |
GauzeEqualizing Distort (1986)manic, aggressive, male vocalist, energetic, noisy its almost a bit too punk-y sounding to me but it does enough right things that its okay 3 | |
DiscloseTragedy (1994)lo-fi, noisy, aggressive, raw, heavy not quite as good as yesterdays fairytale but its still a d-cent slab of dis. i like thier riffs 3 | |
DiscloseYesterday's Fairytale, Tomorrow's Nightmare (2004)raw, male vocalist, noisy, lo-fi, war wow this is. crazy. like trainwreck waiting to happen vocals and just total chaos instruments. mixed like gero a bit lol. very very noisy. very exciting 3.5 | |
FramtidDefeat of Civilization (2013)aggressive, apocalyptic yes well i looked at the calendar this morning... for some reason it says today is d-beat monday?? oh well sufficiently thrashing. vocals werent bad 3 | |
DubsidiaEscape From the Monster EP (2013) [EP]a bit too melodic for my tastes, but theres not a bad track per se. 3 | |
DisfearA Brutal Sight of War (1993)angry, male vocalist, energetic, war, apocalyptic driving around getting burgers with family pretty heavy, not bad. a bit one note and almost leans into powerviolencechudism but ill let it slide 3 | |
The New TragicThe New Tragic [Demo] (2006) [EP]Post-Hardcore, Emo-Pop, Mall Screamo male vocalist, melodic chill last track was nice 3 | |
DJ HatchaDubstep Allstars Vol. 1 (2003) [DJ Mix]nocturnal, urban, rhythmic, hypnotic perfect vibes for waking up and just relaxing. starting my dubstep career here really fun stuff, gets you moving and smiling. suddenly im in the mood to smoke a spliff wif my mates... love the world influences 3.5 | |
DubsidiaPasta With Ganja (2011) [EP]Electronic Dance Music, Brostep Drumstep, Complextro, Glitch Hop [EDM] elekktroshokk was in constant rotation as a kid but for whatever reason i never listened to the full ep. surprisingly really good - these guys have a very diverse and exciting approach to this sound, hard to nail down exactly what genre theyre operating in at any given moment but its dope so who cares. 3.5 | |
Deep ChillsRun Free (2017) [Single]golden vocal line on this so catchy. some weird note choices for the chorus but its chill. very fun. i love summer! 3.5 | |
ActiWaykee (2013) [Single]actually rly cool lol. kind of silly but it goes nuts idgaf. i like the hardstyle influence 3.5 | |
Headhunterz & KSHMRDharma (2016) [Single]someone said better than secrets and i disagree. still fun tho 3 | |
Tiësto & KSHMRSecrets (2015) [Single]Festival Progressive House, Dance-Pop, Dutch House uplifting, female vocalist, anthemic, party, energetic super fun, very melodically sound as well. great song crafting 3.5 | |
Calvin HarrisI Need Your Love (2013) [Single]Dance-Pop, Electro House, Big Room House Festival Progressive House, Progressive House, Complextro female vocalist, longing, energetic, love first remix is whatever, its not bad ig. but the second remix is pretty cool. love the ripping synths, satisfying drop too never liked goulding's vocals on this 3 | |
Doctor PSweet Shop / Gargoyles (2010) [Single]Breakbeat Hardcore, Happy Hardcore dissonant, rhythmic, noisy, aggressive, quirky both tracks are fine. b side is pretty cool with the 8bit sweeps 3 | |
NeroPromises (2011) [Single]Electropop, Melodic Dubstep, Brostep New Rave, Electro House, Dancefloor Drum and Bass female vocalist, bittersweet, futuristic, energetic, introspective im going through RYM's Top 20 Brostep Singles of All Time RANKED! btw. sigh. i wish i loved this more, but i have big qualms with both mixes here. the original has no patience; the one thing skrillex definitely understood was that the "chorus" part of the vocals deserves a calm-before-the-storm atmosphere to it. i think the verses are interesting (especially the drums) but it moves too quickly before the kinda mediocre drop. skrillex's is marginally better, but the drop always felt so contrived to me, like hes kind of just on autopilot or something. 3 | |
Moody GoodFall in Love (Moody Good Remix) (2014) [Single]rhythmic, melancholic, heavy, melodic, atmospheric pretty cool, love the variety of rhythms and stuff. gonna have to come back with speakers, feels like i need to hear this massive 3 | |
SKisM & TrampaBlack Hole (2015) [Single]sampling, aggressive, energetic, scary, atmospheric nothing i really want to listen to today but i must keep up 5 rstings a day so i can be at 10k by end of the year which means its singles sunday super heavy sounds very good definitely ahead of its time. stank face fsfs 3.5 | |

Vi är bäst! [We Are the Best!] (2013)had me grinning the whole time. moodyssons ability to capture naturalism shines especially bright here, and the editing is lowkey crazy theres so many cuts in every scene. understands the subtle magic of starting a band and playing music with your friend - it isnt really about writing anything or hitting the right notes. the rooftop scene was gorgeous, a strangely (but welcome) introspective intermission in the middle of this very humorous fast paced movie. us versus the world (västerås) and if you hate it then its working! 3.5 | |
SKisMThe Blank (2009) [Single]mechanical, dissonant, ominous, heavy, dark cool old school brostep i didnt even know ts existed. 16bit clears tho 3 | |
XanopticonAlembic (2007) [EP]Drill and Bass, Flashcore, Glitch anxious, dark, aggressive, noisy, uncommon time signatures the first track is quite good, but everything else left me mild. i suppose atomheads wasnt too bad. 3 | |
XanopticonThe Silver Key (2007) [EP]Flashcore, Darkstep, Neurofunk rhythmic, chaotic, mechanical, dark, ominous so fucking bad ass. taking a break and just tearing it apart deconstructing it over and over and over again. love how straightforward it is compared to preceding xanopticon works 3.5 | |
WaterflameCommunity Favorites (2015)Breakbeat, Video Game Music, Chiptune, Electro instrumental, energetic, playful, melodic, rhythmic its very cute. some of these songs are still great even today, a handful of songs i hadnt heard before i enjoyed, hexagon force still sucks, but mostly everything is just fine or a bit boring. hes a talented songwriter, i just wish he did less rock/orchestra stuff. electromanv2 is coworker asf 3 | |
billy woodsGolliwog (2025)Abstract Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Conscious Hip Hop Jazz Rap, Horrorcore, Political Hip Hop, Drumless dark, disturbing, poetic, scary, avant-garde its fine. wish it was a bit more cohesive ig. a few cool tracks, doll with pins is great. hes a pretty good lyricist but he has one line in here about ai that absolutely curdled my brain. last track is dope free the ball is in your court, fuckcomments. 3 | |
DisruptUnrest (1994)aggressive, energetic, angry, protest, rebellious dont let the genres fool you this is actually just really good grindcore. the biggest selling point is alyssas vocals shes crazy asf. great riffing 3.5 | |
BohrenLangspielkassette (1992) [Additional release]Sludge Metal, Death Doom Metal Pigfuck, Deathgrind, Hardcore Punk, Doom Metal heavy, noisy, lo-fi, raw, sombre very dark sound. dips into ultrasludge a bit with the vocals. super weird free structure - i may come back for you 3 | |
Tight NooseCulto Di Morte (2019)beh. thin. second track is better ig 2.5 | |
虚拟梦想广场无限渴望 [Wuxian kewang] (2016)New Age, Drone, Rain Sounds, Neoclassical New Age soothing, peaceful, repetitive, calm, instrumental quite nice. if i had known about this in highschool it would probably be something i think about all the time 3 | |
Impeachment of ManImpeachment of Man (2022)repetitive, lethargic, dense, lo-fi going thru bandcamp saves just unsaved like a million things tryna clear dat hoe i'm p sure jack reccd me this thanks fam this was really solid stuff. good variety, despairing and painful. 3.5 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairTop Shotta (2025) [Single]so lovely. feature is really good. lots of emotion 3.5 | |
Vildhjarta+ Där skogen sjunger under evighetens granar + (2025)angular, dissonant, heavy, technical, dense NFMGOEHROVIU NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM WHAAAAAAT?!!!!!! yea if you like it you like if you dont then die sorry really dig how far they push the emotional parts, very swelling stuff, and im glad theyve mostly departed from clean vocals aside from one verse on this. permanent stank face indeed. really great production too 3.5 | |
yeuleEvangelic Girl Is a Gun (2025)Alternative Rock, Indietronica, Pop Rock Trip Hop, Alternative Dance, Alt-Pop, Glitch Pop, Indie Rock nonbinary vocalist, atmospheric, eclectic, bisexual, introspective summer is rolling in, it is a lovely warm day, the sun is shining, i am doing laundry, and yeule and vildhjarta dropped today. way shorter than i was expecting but ig i cant complain, for what it was it was really boring anyway. a lot of going-nowhere songs, its clear shes moving away from boundary pushing ideas and focusing more on songwriting and accessibility, which isnt a bad thing but doesnt work for me. the last half almost saves this. "Dudu" is pretty damn good though. 2.5 | |
SmutScraps (2012) [EP]thought it would be comfy drone... but it was actually evil drone 😟 and the ending is sadge 3 |
DJ Backspin / Sully / Etch / Reverend SlippyDRB01 (2016) [EP]rhythmic the first two are quite strong, very energetic, brimming with polish and style. the second two are also good, but leave a bit less of an impression on me. going to go through dr banana sporadically 3 | |
BurialTruant / Rough Sleeper (2012) [EP]Future Garage, Dubstep, Post-Dubstep Ambient House, 2-Step, Minimal Drum and Bass atmospheric, nocturnal, urban, lonely, sombre very fragmental. little mini eps inandof themselves. its a real shame he didnt bundle these with Kindred EP, would probably be another earthquake electronic album and change the scene forever, or something. 3 | |
BurialKindred EP (2012) [EP]lonely, urban, atmospheric, cold, dark wow. this is ridiculous. but where else can you go after Untrue? a return to form in a way, the EPs directly preceding this were definitely fine and Burial, but they leave something special to be desired. its amazing how well he works in a longform format. Loner is quite massive. Kindred is the real takeaway though 3.5 | |
BurialStreet Halo (2011) [EP]melancholic, urban, cold, atmospheric, nocturnal lovely. stolen dog is of course the highlight. the other two are nice, though at times feel like they are simply just floating by 3 | |
BurialSouth London Boroughs (2005) [EP]urban, dark, atmospheric, rhythmic, nocturnal not bad. the upfront dubstep is interesting, a bit aggressive despite what burial is mostly known for. nothing really stands out though; these definitely all feel like bsides 3 | |
BurialGhost Hardware (2007) [EP]cold, sampling, rhythmic, atmospheric, nocturnal title track is self explanatory. shutta is quite interesting. definitely difficult to follow rhythmically but i dont mind. exit woundz is a satisfying ender. 3 | |
BengaDiary of an Afro Warrior (2008)rhythmic, instrumental, urban, party, atmospheric a bit too long but a handful of exciting tracks. hes got great bass sense and amazing rhythmic ability. 3 | |
SkreamSkream! (2006)rhythmic, atmospheric, urban, sampling, repetitive its fine. not everything hits but theres classics here, i recognize some from the allstars comps ive heard. good dub 3 | |
Blood Meridian i just finished reading Blood Meridian (FINALLY) after about a month or two of on and off reading. its a bit of a tougher read honestly if you arent primed for his style but i enjoyed it. hes got a very breadth-y lexicon and his run-on structures are almost hypnotic, his paragraphs play out like paintings rather than concrete descriptions of events. there are elements of existentialism that almost break through some of the dialogue and narration. very violent and apathetic. 3.5 | |
PinkPantheressHeaven Knows (2023)Contemporary R&B, Alt-Pop, Electronic Dance Music Liquid Drum and Bass, Dance-Pop, 2-Step, Breakbeat, Alternative R&B atmospheric, ethereal, female vocalist, lush, romantic wow yeah plenty of exciting tracks. love her production. the wod placement gave me whiplash. features generally hold this back. great voice 3.5 | |
AweminusShort Fuse EP (2017) [EP]heavy stuff 3 | |
E.A.P.D. / Kid Lib / Ocean Inside / EtchDRB02 (2017) [EP]Jungle, Atmospheric Drum and Bass instrumental GOOD MORNING we are listenin to jungle dnb breaks today all tracks great but first two are very special 3.5 | |
Krystal JesusCMIYC (2016) [Single]futuristic, chaotic, mechanical interesting. psychedelic. feels reserved 3 | |
S280F[untitled] (2025) [EP]Ambient, Glitch, Modern Classical, Deconstructed Club, Flashcore surreal, sampling, maximalist, energetic, dissonant some really impressive flashcore moments, but as far as short little eps go its not the most consistent. excited to see what comes of her new album 3 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairBeimax Chessclub (2025)Chipmunk Soul, Future Funk, Pop Rap, Nervous Music, Cloud Rap playful, male vocalist, deadpan, poetic, bittersweet kinda hoped for more but its good still. Operation "Misery", Stalemate, Airliner Tycoon, Chess Games on Phonecalls, A Wise Woman Once Said... its nice that its more classic sounding marjorie. great cover 3 | |
EmotionalsOnnea (2021) [EP]love i like it, its cute. the dnb tag had me worried but it comes off nicely. when i get the chance i will bring this to baby rocktime, i think he would appreciate it more than me 3 | |
GFOTYCall Him a Doctor (2016)Power Pop, Bubblegum Bass, Digital Hardcore, Glitch Pop, Electroclash surreal, love, female vocalist, humorous, playful somehow not at all what i was expecting. lots of amazing tracks. plenty of really cool ideas. some genuinely impressive songwriting 3.5 | |
D1V1 (2007) [EP]while most tracks are nothing super special, Mind + Soul might just be one of the best tracks... of all time. 3 | |
KromestarCoca Cola (2008) [Single]good low dubs... 3 | |
Digital MystikzReturn II Space (2010)minimalistic, repetitive, ominous, rhythmic, bassy interesting for sure but... not really my thing. i respect it for experimenting though 2.5 | |
CalendaForever (2008) [Single]i feel silly for handing out so many 3.5s today but these are all such great eps Forever side is so fucking good, i like imagining both tracks as one big track. amazing deep wubs second side is real good too, real great atmosphere 3.5 | |
Digital Mystikz & LoefahTwisup / B / Chainba (2004) [Single]instrumental, sampling, dark, repetitive, atmospheric twisup and chainba both flex some good drums and lowkey vibes, but B is where its fucking at. that bass... 3.5 | |
LoefahJungle Infiltrator (2004) [EP]repetitive, sampling, nocturnal, atmospheric, mysterious really dug the title track and indian dub. the other two i could t ake or leave 3 | |
Benga & SkreamThe Judgement (2003) [EP]repetitive, sampling, rhythmic, instrumental, urban fuckk yes i love you little banana title track is one of my fav dub tracks fs 3.5 | |
Benga / SkreamHydro / Elektro (2004) [EP]yeah benga seems like the goat his tracks are so good so smooth. skreams is good too love the percussive work on all these 3.5 | |
GhostThe Spooks / Bison 2 / Assasin (2001) [Single]maybe even better than lyrical tempo. first track is so nice, as is "assasin". Bison 2 is good too, but its def the weakest track here... 3.5 | |
GhostLyrical Tempo / Count It Off / Hesitation (2001) [Single]its finally time. been on the queue for like 5 years now so good. just perfect classic smooth as butter stuff. lyrical tempo is prob the best but all 3 feel like a warm bath 3.5 | |
LoefahMud / Rufage (2006) [Single]atmospheric, ominous, rhythmic, instrumental, nocturnal deep and dark. mud > 3 | |
Digital Mystikz & LoefahDubsession (2004) [EP]sampling, dark, rhythmic, hypnotic, nocturnal not bad but its quite slow and lowkey. horror show has good atmosphere. 3 | |
MentaJacknife / Rubba (2003) [Single]holy massive. so fucking cool. very exciting stuff, jacknife my fav 3.5 | |
RoxyWatch Dis / Morse Code (2001) [Single]both tracks are fine, a bit repetitive 3 | |
BengaSkank / Dose (2002) [Single]skank is real proper shit gets me out my seat. dose is fine 3 | |
GhostDance Hall EP (2001) [EP]dark, energetic, rhythmic, nocturnal, male vocalist nothing is too attention grabbing but there are a handful of interesting moments. good atmosphere 3 | |
HecatonchiresBorn Slippy (2020) [Single]surreal, sparse, melodic, atmospheric interesting. calm stuff 3 | |
BurialUntrue (2007)urban, nocturnal, atmospheric, lonely, melancholic well yes its probably about time. all this dubstep and whatnot. its difficult to deny the mastery here: Burial's production methods give way to lots of breath and soul in every track - ghosts lurk around in all frequency ranges, it isnt necessarily just a drum loop and synths, it seems that intangible phantoms and apparitions weave in and out of the spaces inbetween accents and condensate off the exhales of synths or flash away just before the bass hits you. hes also got quite the ear for samples.

Chef & RamadanmanDubstep Allstars: Vol. 07 (2009) [DJ Mix]oh boy another double disc... chefs side offers a wide range of styles and is kind of all over the place, its the most lighthearted and upbeat mix in the series so far and coincidentally also the most boring. ramadanman makes this daunting 2 disc worth it though with a very classy mix; lots of style, great track synergy, deep atmosphere and plenty of flourishes throughout make it a super exciting and equally relaxing mix. plenty of dancefloor shuffle moments 3, sadly | |
GFOTY & SpineeDog Food (2016)Happy Hardcore, Grime, Jumpstyle, Hip House repetitive, manic, humorous, party, playful always something interesting. lots of great ideas here. i dont love it as much as fuckcomments does but i agree that theres an air of sincerity permeating everything 3 | |
SiegeDrop Dead (1994) [Compilation]Powerviolence, Grindcore, Noise Rock aggressive, political, angry, heavy, raw neat. very aggressive. last track sounds like no trend 3 | |
40GradiHi-Tech Re-Search (2008)noisy, heavy, alcohol, animals, violence sometimes curious, sometimes confusing, but mostly just okay. 3 | |
DubsidiaHere Comes Trouble EP (2011) [EP]biggest weakness of this ep is its lack of brevity without variation. very strong sometimes great ideas and really keyed in sound design but none of it warrants a 5+ minute runtime on any of these songs. 3 | |
PlaqueboymaxFive Forever (2025) [Mixtape]sexual, repetitive, hedonism, fashion, mellow way overhated lol. at its worst its just boring, but after yacht 2 he really locks in and those last 5 alone could be a 3.5 or higher on a good day 3 | |
N.O.D.Niggaz of Destruction (1996)lo-fi, violence, crime, nocturnal, dark nice. good atmosphere. last track is cool. 3 | |
PeKaNoThe Nightmare Is Not Over (2017) [Single]sampling, rhythmic plays it very safe and tries to work extratone into a dance-friendly format. not my cup of tea. i used to be in a server with this person 2.5 | |
S280FMKAU (2016) [EP]cool. clicked for extratone which it was not. i need to dig thru their eps 3 | |
boolymon & MarrgielaaBoolymon & Marrgielaa Final Samples (2024) [DJ Mix]Dark Plugg, Instrumental Hip Hop great stuff. beautiful melodics inspiring 808s 3.5 | |

TumourPrepare To Putrefy (2006) [EP]boring whatever goreg (pronounced gorg) goodcover 2.5 | |
EbullienceDemo 2025 (2025) [Additional release]Slam Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal cool. on the free death spectrum it feels closer to composed death but its still dope and chaos. hope more from this project comes to fruition, really love the slam section 3 | |
CxHxAxTxOxUxNxExTxTxExCat Memes Will Invade the World! (2025) [EP]noisy, rhythmic, instrumental thanks adrien, i didnt feel comfortable being forced to download this so its nice to know you were joking. 2.5 | |
ivvysIG Reels (2025) [Single]Arabic Music, Drumless, Digicore posse cut, sampling, quirky, avant-garde, male vocalist zatru is the best producer in the underground right now 3 | |
boolymonAugust Samples 1 / 1 (2024) [DJ Mix]so good hes srsly one of the best producers ever. every marrgielaa snippet is so good i need to hear their mix. so funny how he is always using these like orchestral instruments but they dont sound silly at all 3.5 | |
Shotgun99Green Apple (2016) [Single]avant-garde really cool. theres a lot of interesting timing and cool textures in here, some of it feels like oldschool brostep stuff i like that. i think this would be way less memed if the kicks were heavier 3.5 | |
AppleblimDubstep Allstars: Vol. 06 (2008) [DJ Mix]this volume features a lot of dub tech/reggae influences which is neat. it also features some of my favorite percussion ive heard in dubstep so far, really love the tracks that play around with delay. unfortunately on the whole i think its one of the weaker mixes though; the first 20 or 30 minutes are real slow and it takes a while before i can really get into it 3 | |
A Perfect World (1993)makes a lot of sense this directly precedes Bridges..., its similarly warm and romantic. Clint experiments with the nature of a father figure, religion, youth (catching up to and chasing it), crime and love. subversively introduces itself as some kind of cat and mouse thriller with clint as the seasoned above-the-law detective versus costner's all-brains formalist-criminal antagonist but subtly quiets the engines and slows its pace down as it becomes more preoccupied with phillip's adventure. you can read all about it in fuckcomments' review but those last 20 minutes are some especially beautiful filmmaking 3.5 | |
Body of Lies (2008)movie wednesday escapades continue. todays episode might be particularly grating for some of you very visually locked in - amazing compositional work and set pieces; rooted equally in the digital (surveillance/database) and gritty physical worlds. always on your toes, the pacing is very very fast. substantially not the most exciting of his movies though; incompetent higher ups decide your life or death via remote controls and absent-minded phone calls while their kids play soccer and your love interest is extortion leverage - Mann would've been able to sell this much better, but its not like Scott failed anyone. 3 | |
Phoenix Forgotten (2017)a productive day of chores, libraries, pickleball and chicken. ive been wanting to check out a dvd from a library and try it... just cuz. we had to go to one anyway for my girlfriend to drop off one of her books and while searching for ridley scott films i noticed he produced this (for whatever reason the library in question has his credit for that stored in their database) and seeing as its a low stakes movie that ive had a mild interest in i thought why not. im really not a fan of how they build up the mockumentary half of this, it feels very thin; there really isnt even much to make a documentation of (which is reflected by the heavy amounts of archival footage padding up runtime in the first two acts) so it just gets distracting cutting to interview sections or hearing a score. i did like the very intimate and idyllic filming during the documentary sections though. i really really love the diary element of a lot of found footage stuff and the opening of this (as well as much of Josh's footage) was perfect for that. it captures some really warm interactions, i kind of wish it was just a long string of his clips and news clips without anyone explaining what we're seeing as its happening... the ending bit was honestly a bit exhausting thinking back on it, but there are a few noteworthy moments that make up for it. 2.5 | |
N-TypeDubstep Allstars: Vol. 05 (2007) [DJ Mix]ohhh yes. this is what ive been wanting! aside from volume 4, this mix is very much in line with the goals of the first 3 at carving out and showcasing a unique identity of dubstep (call it a "gimmick" i guess). this time around, N-type focuses a lot on "drops", and the result is a lot of super early proto-ish brostep kind of stuff. the jump from classic dubstep to brostep in the modern context can seem like a stretch but this mix really puts into context how the latter bridged off from the former. really dope stuff, constantly engaging and surprisingly heavy at times. a lot of production highlights 3.5 | |
Youngsta & HatchaDubstep Allstars: Vol. 04 (2006) [DJ Mix]so far, every mix in this series has represented a different side to dubstep's identity (at least thats how im reading it). 01 is just a great introduction, 02 serves deep black sparsity, and 03 dabbles in dub poetry. so 04? well, to start its two discs (daunting); a Youngsta VS. Hatcha situation. but beyond that? both mixes feel equally dark, but i cant help but feel they either retread groundwork laid out in the first 3 mixes or they simply do nothing especially interesting and notable like the first 3 did. that isnt to say these are bad mixes, no, both are excellently crafted and have a handful of standout tracks, especially Hatcha's. but in the context of the series i think these mixes do fall short in that they really arent all that special. oh well. 3 | |
Kode9 featuring The SpaceapeDubstep Allstars: Vol.03 (2006) [DJ Mix]so very cool and alien. while reading A Darker Electricity, when they would mention MCs at free parties speaking or rapping i could never quite get a good idea of that in my head. it always felt like it'd be such an awkward thing. but i can totally see the vision now. even if hes repetitive, theres something super hypnotic and lulling about Spaceapes poetry that makes this such an enveloping listen. and Kode9 has a really great dark track selection, keeping things interesting between verses. some people are asking for less Spaceape, but i was missing him by the end! 3.5 | |
YoungstaDubstep Allstars, Vol.02 (2005) [DJ Mix]nocturnal, hypnotic, cold, dark, sparse rounding off the night where we started the day: DUB STEP ALL STARS VOL UME TWO way way way more stripped back and atmospheric than 01, this is dark shadows and roomy corners all the way around, no lights and tons of smoke in ya lungs maybe im crazy but i kinda preferred 01 more. i fw the vibes here but its not as exciting to me as the dancy more engaging stuff in the first mix. still dope though. very interesting 3 | |
Dropdead落とす死 [Dropdead] (1993)Thrashcore, Powerviolence, Crust Punk political, energetic, pessimistic, heavy, aggressive similarly to Unrest, this is really just great grindcore disguised as d-beat. lots of really stellar songwriting honestly, this is some of the most ridiculous 11-notch violent punk ive heard. amazing vocals 3.5 | |
DisfearSoul Scars (1995)angry, male vocalist, raw, war, apocalyptic dark, violent, oppressive. lovely stuff 3 | |
SkitslickersGBG 1982 (1982) [EP]raw, aggressive, angry, rebellious, heavy pretty hard to hate on it for only being 3 minutes and being violent as fuck. if you can you should hear the reissue with bonus tracks, "The Night of the Holocaust" is insane 3 | |
DishammerVintage Addiction (2008)D-Beat, Crust Punk, Blackened Crust Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Speed Metal misanthropic, dark, rhythmic, raw, sexual meh. really didnt like the vocals at all, some of the lyrics are so eye roll macho it hurts. kinda lame riffs too 2.5 | |
SkitsystemStigmata (2006)aggressive, male vocalist, energetic, raw, dense very brutal and dark. impressive technicality for the genre, may return for more. good cover 3 | |
KuroWho the Helpless (1984) [EP]raw, male vocalist, energetic, aggressive, lo-fi here we go. this is too punk-y 2.5 | |
GauzeEqualizing Distort (1986)manic, aggressive, male vocalist, energetic, noisy its almost a bit too punk-y sounding to me but it does enough right things that its okay 3 | |
DiscloseTragedy (1994)lo-fi, noisy, aggressive, raw, heavy not quite as good as yesterdays fairytale but its still a d-cent slab of dis. i like thier riffs 3 | |
DiscloseYesterday's Fairytale, Tomorrow's Nightmare (2004)raw, male vocalist, noisy, lo-fi, war wow this is. crazy. like trainwreck waiting to happen vocals and just total chaos instruments. mixed like gero a bit lol. very very noisy. very exciting 3.5 | |
FramtidDefeat of Civilization (2013)aggressive, apocalyptic yes well i looked at the calendar this morning... for some reason it says today is d-beat monday?? oh well sufficiently thrashing. vocals werent bad 3 | |
DubsidiaEscape From the Monster EP (2013) [EP]a bit too melodic for my tastes, but theres not a bad track per se. 3 | |
DisfearA Brutal Sight of War (1993)angry, male vocalist, energetic, war, apocalyptic driving around getting burgers with family pretty heavy, not bad. a bit one note and almost leans into powerviolencechudism but ill let it slide 3 | |
The New TragicThe New Tragic [Demo] (2006) [EP]Post-Hardcore, Emo-Pop, Mall Screamo male vocalist, melodic chill last track was nice 3 | |
DJ HatchaDubstep Allstars Vol. 1 (2003) [DJ Mix]nocturnal, urban, rhythmic, hypnotic perfect vibes for waking up and just relaxing. starting my dubstep career here really fun stuff, gets you moving and smiling. suddenly im in the mood to smoke a spliff wif my mates... love the world influences 3.5 | |
DubsidiaPasta With Ganja (2011) [EP]Electronic Dance Music, Brostep Drumstep, Complextro, Glitch Hop [EDM] elekktroshokk was in constant rotation as a kid but for whatever reason i never listened to the full ep. surprisingly really good - these guys have a very diverse and exciting approach to this sound, hard to nail down exactly what genre theyre operating in at any given moment but its dope so who cares. 3.5 | |
Deep ChillsRun Free (2017) [Single]golden vocal line on this so catchy. some weird note choices for the chorus but its chill. very fun. i love summer! 3.5 | |
ActiWaykee (2013) [Single]actually rly cool lol. kind of silly but it goes nuts idgaf. i like the hardstyle influence 3.5 | |
Headhunterz & KSHMRDharma (2016) [Single]someone said better than secrets and i disagree. still fun tho 3 | |
Tiësto & KSHMRSecrets (2015) [Single]Festival Progressive House, Dance-Pop, Dutch House uplifting, female vocalist, anthemic, party, energetic super fun, very melodically sound as well. great song crafting 3.5 | |
Calvin HarrisI Need Your Love (2013) [Single]Dance-Pop, Electro House, Big Room House Festival Progressive House, Progressive House, Complextro female vocalist, longing, energetic, love first remix is whatever, its not bad ig. but the second remix is pretty cool. love the ripping synths, satisfying drop too never liked goulding's vocals on this 3 | |
Doctor PSweet Shop / Gargoyles (2010) [Single]Breakbeat Hardcore, Happy Hardcore dissonant, rhythmic, noisy, aggressive, quirky both tracks are fine. b side is pretty cool with the 8bit sweeps 3 | |
NeroPromises (2011) [Single]Electropop, Melodic Dubstep, Brostep New Rave, Electro House, Dancefloor Drum and Bass female vocalist, bittersweet, futuristic, energetic, introspective im going through RYM's Top 20 Brostep Singles of All Time RANKED! btw. sigh. i wish i loved this more, but i have big qualms with both mixes here. the original has no patience; the one thing skrillex definitely understood was that the "chorus" part of the vocals deserves a calm-before-the-storm atmosphere to it. i think the verses are interesting (especially the drums) but it moves too quickly before the kinda mediocre drop. skrillex's is marginally better, but the drop always felt so contrived to me, like hes kind of just on autopilot or something. 3 | |
Moody GoodFall in Love (Moody Good Remix) (2014) [Single]rhythmic, melancholic, heavy, melodic, atmospheric pretty cool, love the variety of rhythms and stuff. gonna have to come back with speakers, feels like i need to hear this massive 3 | |
SKisM & TrampaBlack Hole (2015) [Single]sampling, aggressive, energetic, scary, atmospheric nothing i really want to listen to today but i must keep up 5 rstings a day so i can be at 10k by end of the year which means its singles sunday super heavy sounds very good definitely ahead of its time. stank face fsfs 3.5 | |

Vi är bäst! [We Are the Best!] (2013)had me grinning the whole time. moodyssons ability to capture naturalism shines especially bright here, and the editing is lowkey crazy theres so many cuts in every scene. understands the subtle magic of starting a band and playing music with your friend - it isnt really about writing anything or hitting the right notes. the rooftop scene was gorgeous, a strangely (but welcome) introspective intermission in the middle of this very humorous fast paced movie. us versus the world (västerås) and if you hate it then its working! 3.5 | |
SKisMThe Blank (2009) [Single]mechanical, dissonant, ominous, heavy, dark cool old school brostep i didnt even know ts existed. 16bit clears tho 3 | |
XanopticonAlembic (2007) [EP]Drill and Bass, Flashcore, Glitch anxious, dark, aggressive, noisy, uncommon time signatures the first track is quite good, but everything else left me mild. i suppose atomheads wasnt too bad. 3 | |
XanopticonThe Silver Key (2007) [EP]Flashcore, Darkstep, Neurofunk rhythmic, chaotic, mechanical, dark, ominous so fucking bad ass. taking a break and just tearing it apart deconstructing it over and over and over again. love how straightforward it is compared to preceding xanopticon works 3.5 | |
WaterflameCommunity Favorites (2015)Breakbeat, Video Game Music, Chiptune, Electro instrumental, energetic, playful, melodic, rhythmic its very cute. some of these songs are still great even today, a handful of songs i hadnt heard before i enjoyed, hexagon force still sucks, but mostly everything is just fine or a bit boring. hes a talented songwriter, i just wish he did less rock/orchestra stuff. electromanv2 is coworker asf 3 | |
billy woodsGolliwog (2025)Abstract Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Conscious Hip Hop Jazz Rap, Horrorcore, Political Hip Hop, Drumless dark, disturbing, poetic, scary, avant-garde its fine. wish it was a bit more cohesive ig. a few cool tracks, doll with pins is great. hes a pretty good lyricist but he has one line in here about ai that absolutely curdled my brain. last track is dope free the ball is in your court, fuckcomments. 3 | |
DisruptUnrest (1994)aggressive, energetic, angry, protest, rebellious dont let the genres fool you this is actually just really good grindcore. the biggest selling point is alyssas vocals shes crazy asf. great riffing 3.5 | |
BohrenLangspielkassette (1992) [Additional release]Sludge Metal, Death Doom Metal Pigfuck, Deathgrind, Hardcore Punk, Doom Metal heavy, noisy, lo-fi, raw, sombre very dark sound. dips into ultrasludge a bit with the vocals. super weird free structure - i may come back for you 3 | |
Tight NooseCulto Di Morte (2019)beh. thin. second track is better ig 2.5 | |
虚拟梦想广场无限渴望 [Wuxian kewang] (2016)New Age, Drone, Rain Sounds, Neoclassical New Age soothing, peaceful, repetitive, calm, instrumental quite nice. if i had known about this in highschool it would probably be something i think about all the time 3 | |
Impeachment of ManImpeachment of Man (2022)repetitive, lethargic, dense, lo-fi going thru bandcamp saves just unsaved like a million things tryna clear dat hoe i'm p sure jack reccd me this thanks fam this was really solid stuff. good variety, despairing and painful. 3.5 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairTop Shotta (2025) [Single]so lovely. feature is really good. lots of emotion 3.5 | |
Vildhjarta+ Där skogen sjunger under evighetens granar + (2025)angular, dissonant, heavy, technical, dense NFMGOEHROVIU NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM WHAAAAAAT?!!!!!! yea if you like it you like if you dont then die sorry really dig how far they push the emotional parts, very swelling stuff, and im glad theyve mostly departed from clean vocals aside from one verse on this. permanent stank face indeed. really great production too 3.5 | |
yeuleEvangelic Girl Is a Gun (2025)Alternative Rock, Indietronica, Pop Rock Trip Hop, Alternative Dance, Alt-Pop, Glitch Pop, Indie Rock nonbinary vocalist, atmospheric, eclectic, bisexual, introspective summer is rolling in, it is a lovely warm day, the sun is shining, i am doing laundry, and yeule and vildhjarta dropped today. way shorter than i was expecting but ig i cant complain, for what it was it was really boring anyway. a lot of going-nowhere songs, its clear shes moving away from boundary pushing ideas and focusing more on songwriting and accessibility, which isnt a bad thing but doesnt work for me. the last half almost saves this. "Dudu" is pretty damn good though. 2.5 | |
SmutScraps (2012) [EP]thought it would be comfy drone... but it was actually evil drone 😟 and the ending is sadge 3 |
Porter RobinsonSpitfire (2011) [EP]Moombahcore, Festival Progressive House energetic, repetitive, rhythmic, party, punchy definitely his first ep - both a total product of its time and a midding display of influences, focusing less on cohesion and more on diversity; a showcase. some tracks are pretty obvious about it - hes definitely channelling a lot of deadmau5 on Vandalism, or excision on The State, and others just feel like hes trying something new for the first time. Spitfire and Unison both come across quite amateurish, 100%... definitely only exists because that sample was funny to him. however occasionally moments of excellence shine through - 100%'s drops are super fun even today, and The Seconds is actually kind of a gorgeous track. beyond that though its difficult to give the first half of this any kind of positive score - its unfocused, even for a showcase, and very rough around the edges, as well as being a bit misguided (a porter robinson song about... taxes bein bad...). it doesnt help that almost every song is over 5 minutes as well, but it really just stems from him wanting to build intros and verses and bridges, so i cant be too upset i guess (he wants to write songs!) he employs a respectable and recognizable-in-the-scene crew for the remix half, even though most of them are duds... Knife Party's remix of Unison works well and is both inventive and texturally interesting. Mikka's remix of the same track is a bit um... radio friendly? (think Avicii, David Guetta, Deorro, etc.) Unfortunately Downlink on 100% seems to have been a misstep. unsatisfying and way too goofy - i personally would have chosen diplo, but maybe he hadnt developed his sound by then... SKisM and KtN wrap it up with dated but admirable brostep remixes. the former weaves a very manic drop (and thankfully cuts about 95% of that annoying sample out) but falls short on the production/mixing side, while the latter is a bit more straightforward but has much better sounding production (also some candy sweet synths in the verse, yum!) 2.5 | |
Princess Army Wedding CombatOmphalomancy LSD (2025)sometimes genius, most of the times silly. 3 | |
Ariadne's ThreadAnother Way to Get There (2025) [EP]aggressive, uncommon time signatures, chaotic, political, passionate cool. good vocals. awful cover 3 | |
DischargeHear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing (1982)apocalyptic, energetic, aggressive, raw, heavy figured its about time i see whats up. they werent playing about that drum beat bro. i wish i cared more ab this but its just boring to me. his vocals kinda ass. very few standout riffs 2.5 | |
Sissy SpacekMaterializing Defective Fascia (2025)forgot about this until rn. very good stuff, glad they're still pumping out these horne collabs. stellar ending 3.5 | |
GemengungSuperlative Rumination (2025)heavy, repetitive, sampling, disease, aggressive also, the packaging for these discs is quite good! very pristine, excellent quality. inspiring stuff... a bit more standard than suncarcass' i feel, but still nice harshness. in typical BUS fashion, the second track is the more interesting of the two (they're calling it the BUS effect): very chaotic, it sounds like wall derived from constant movement. i felt like i heard voices at some point 3 | |
SuncarcassPage 5 (2022)chaotic, noisy, aggressive, dissonant, dense thank yoi for mailijg me both BUS CDs, jack! ive been looking forward to BUSing all week! really gott dig deeper into this suncarcass guy. first track is some quality harsh crunch, but the second takes the cake. super weird metallic textures and odd rainbow-digital-sounding processing or something, feels quite thrashing. 3 | |
D-CloneDrop a Noise Bomb (2009) [EP]aggressive, noisy, raw, manic production immediately makes this more exciting for me, plus i think their sense of riffing shines a bit better here 3 | |
D-CloneEnjoy D-Beat & Noise (2007) [EP]dark, noisy, lo-fi beh, normal dbeat stuff. idrc 2.5 | |
DJ Snake & Space LacesReloaded (2025) [Single]energetic, dense, male vocalist, heavy, aggressive nifty, not a collab id ever have expected. i appreciate rawstyle being utilized more but it rly doesnt fit this song 3 | |
K-PAX (2001)"In the vocabulary of the Russian Formalists the film has one syuzhet, but two fabulas." like an anti-scifi mystery kind of deal. spacey plays his role well, bridges asks the questions we need him to ask. elevated by the occasionally very warm and floaty visuals - an admirable appreciation for the sun, and in general a deep sense of light-work, how it bends and flows and reshapes the image. 3 | |
The Bridges of Madison County (1995)just an amazing film. eastwood loads every scene with emotion, every gesture has its own gravity and every blurb of dialogue its own double meaning. nothing happens: a love that exists only in one short self destructing moment can only transpire from the total culmination of hundreds of individual, microscopic interactions. a warm rumination on rural american culture, sometimes appreciative and other times critical, but always romantic in a way i can imagine very few directors could do it. the chemistry between him and streep is perfect - one of those times a picture makes you forget its just a picture. at first i wasnt really fw the flashforward scenes to the kids (i still think they are a bit clunky tbh) but i think they help to pull the tragical aspects out of the story a bit more. rain scene. 3.5fornow | |
Belly (1998)nothing but style. captivating and moving; really love the range between nas and dmx. couldve easily been another 30 minutes longer. had me welling up at the end 3.5 | |

Yungster JackFeverbrekt (2025)Experimental Hip Hop, Digicore Abstract Hip Hop, Cloud Rap, Plugg mental health, progressive, energetic, chaotic, opioids meh. a few tracks that hold this up for me but i feel like a lot of it was worthless. i may drop the score if i think about it more 3 | |
Krystal JesusParaLaSantaMuerteMaster (2016)quite nice, definitely the least exciting of his 3 long outputs under this name but its still pretty good. also more melodic than i expected, with an interesting little extratone ish section towards the end 3.5 | |
Stom Sogo Mix (2012)duckcomments didnt like this one nearly as much as me, but im not sure why. memories snapshots and interactions as textural blinks and paint splotches between frames. you process the afterimage stained with exposure, not the actual picture presenting itself. visually a beatdown, its definitely more strenuous to sit through this than it would probably be to watch each individual short, but i dont really care. really enjoyed the soundtrack as well. 4 | |
The Illiac Passion (1967)movie night with cro intimacy and lust and reflections and meditations. lovely editing even if i didnt find as much as id hoped to carry with me 3 | |
JusticeA Cross the Universe (2008)French House, French Electro, Electro House Mashup, Electro-Industrial, Synth Punk energetic, epic, aggressive, party, sampling whoever saying this is trying to be alive 2007 need to get zapped in the neck. if this is anything other than what it is its an extended remixed Cross. improves on a LOT of problems i have with cross (especially the party) and includes so much extra good material. the live version of ny excuse is fucking glorious. my biggest issue is the last track, i get it was probably fun and exciting but ts aged like yogurt 🥀 3.5 | |
Essence of AuraLet Love Shine Through / So This Is Love / Northern Lights (Remix) (1995) [Single]Atmospheric Drum and Bass, Jungle energetic, rhythmic, sampling, nocturnal, longing dont care much for a side. b sides are nice 3 | |

JusticePlanisphère (2008) [EP]French House, Electro-Industrial, Synthwave, Progressive House epic, progressive, dense, energetic, mechanical pretty nifty. the guitar solo at the end is definitely tedious but its chill 3 | |

Krystal JesusNo Fucking Title je t'emmerde (2017)chaotic, dense waow. really melodic surprisingly. gorgeous stuff. makes me feel 4 | |
Daft PunkAlive 2007 (2007)French House, Mashup, French Electro Electro House, Mashup, Progressive House party, energetic, futuristic, rhythmic, happy believe it. the preferred way to listen to their music is, unsurprisingly, in seamless dancefloor format. practically just a greatest hits album. so awesome being able to hear the audience, really emphasizes how exciting this was live 3.5 | |
NyanakaruCoolidge Effect (2023) [Single]cool but weirdly it feels like restrained? idk it could be crazier 3 | |
Expiry DateEssence 2 (2024)Cloud Rap, Alternative R&B, Rage, Trap from eli loved the indietronica bits and i like when he does little david shawty sounding tracks. the straightforward rage tracks r my least fav but its all pretty fun 3 | |

Why ProxyI Fight for My Friends (2020) [Single]Ambient, Nature Recordings, Liquid Drum and Bass lush, manic, sampling, atmospheric, rhythmic dreamt atmo dnb. not very sepcial but its competent 3 | |
Dave BluntsThe Cup (2024) [Single]opioids, repetitive, drugs, humorous, addiction its chill. not sure why people feel so strongly about this, at the end of the day its just a middling song with a catchy chorus. 3 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairStalemate (2025) [Single]Detroit Sound, Experimental Hip Hop playful, energetic, rhythmic, deadpan, male vocalist i prefer airliner tycoon, but this is still good old marjorie and you cant go wrong with that. 3 | |
JusticeWaters of Nazareth (2006) [Single]male vocalist the justice remix is pretty cool, just like an interesting flip of the old song. erol's remix is fine its a very "traditional" style remix not much to say, but that dj funk remix is something else. shake that fucking ass 3.5 | |
Playboi Carti & YoungBoy Never Broke AgainAlive (2025) [Music video]Experimental Hip Hop, Hardcore Hip Hop Industrial Hip Hop, Electro-Industrial, Rage, Horror Synth raw, noisy, avant-garde, heavy, aggressive nah dude this is insane yb just nonstop for like 3 minutes so aggressive and then cartis pitched down verse sounds so fuckin intense. beat is ridiculous. video is like an essay film its fire 3.5 | |
Thaiboy DigitalStadium (2025) [Music video]beat is crazy he sounds dope here excited to see where dis goes idk why i didnt just listen to the single but its too late now 3.5 | |
7038634357Like a Stone (2025) [Single]Ambient, Progressive Electronic Ambient Pop, Drone, Berlin School, Minimal Synth gorgeous. so calming. 3.5 | |
The Borderlands [Final Prayer] (2013)productive day of reading, thrifting, laundry and cooking. now we wind down with a nifty little found footage watch. standout aspect is the two leads that have both good chemistry and make for interesting crisis-of-faith characters. by and far a run of the mill exercise in haunted location + religious horror but it redeems itself with a claustrophobic, manic and inventive ending. 3 | |
HecatonchiresCrematorium (2020) [Single]heavy, dark, dense, infernal, atmospheric really crazy and super super dark evil sound. i nominate fuckcomments to take on the hecatonchires crematorium challenge next! 3.5 | |
Daft PunkDiscovery (2001)Electro-Disco, Funky House, Dance-Pop, Synth Funk, Nu-Disco party, sampling, futuristic, energetic, rhythmic apparently, just over 6 years ago, i listened to this and gave it a 2. not sure what was going on that day... undeniable that its at least good. these guys know how to craft an infectious and powerful groove, get you off your feet and get you on the damn dance floor. that said, its also long as fuck (aptly ending on "Too Long") and theres way too many duds here to turn a blind eye towards. a few tracks are even outright bad. but man... those first 4 tracks... if those dont win you over you may not be human after all 3 | |
Dougal & GammerWii Go Crazy / Cry for You (2008) [Single]female vocalist, rhythmic, melodic a side kinda wurfless just feels like autopilot uk hardcore but b side is classik. ive heard the annoying ringtone remix before like a long time ago, but the og def stands on its own. amazing vocal line 3 | |
Blutonium Boy pres. Romeo Must DieInferno / To the Bassline (2006) [Single]both tracks were fun but i dont think i was particularly won over by either. heavy 3 | |
HeadhunterzForever az One / Digiwave (2007) [Single]million recs from snoleopard thanks friend a side shouldve been more bad ass given the sample, but the best one is b side. love the bip synth stuff so fun 3 | |
Valentino KhanDeep Down Low (Remixes) (2015) [Single]pleasantly surprised at how overall-enjoyable this is. getter's remix is fun and wonky; i love the higher pitched swiping synths. etc/tighttrax maintajns the darker vibe of the original while also going full festival party massive on the drop. party favor's was fine, a decent entry in that era's festival trap sound. the most surprising was L4HL's footwork adjacent remix; its a bit tedious but was exciting nonetheless 3.5 | |
Here (2024)fuck its the second fragment type movie the only movie that can and will ever exist like this - form leads way to removing all emphasis on space or permanence; completely and totally romanticizing the history and context of an object or an event. birth death past and future. a tragedy rings out in ripples, resonating with a parallel misfortune decades earlier. its simple, but Zemeckis knows how to pull on the heart strings of americans. 4 | |
American Sniper (2014)curious. im still workshopping some thoughts on this, but ill say this for now: those last 20 minutes are legendary. i cant imagine what the dust storm scene wouldve looked like on the big screen. 3 | |
Kárhozat [Damnation] (1988)its crazy this came out just 3 years after Almanac. it feels like a completely different director was behind this lol. very gorgeous (hes so much better at shooting b&w) and i appreciate the languid dream like pace, but i found much less than i was expecting in terms of substance to hold onto. something about harmony lacking between some of the images as well. still enjoyed it though, excited for man from london. 3 | |
Árnyék a havon [Shadow on the Snow] (1992)at its strongest when the camera is merely a bystander letting the slow passage of life go by without commentary, but unfortunately plays out a bit too standard for me, which hurts it in the end because this is really not a very substance heavy film. feels much longer than it is. 2.5 | |
SporTactics EP (2005) [EP]last one of the day. i never knew feed me had another alias, and its pretty cool dnb stuff too. dug the darker atmosphere, even if it was a bit of a repetitive listen 3 | |
XilentSkyward EP (2011) [EP]tracklisting implies there is some kind of narrative continuity from Choose Me, even though this release is much more focused on the brostep sound as opposed to the drum and bass of its predecessor. i guess its bett3r? but not really. its still very middling and of its time. i suppose the last track isnt too bad. 2.5 | |
Various ArtistsSpectrasonic: Vol. 1 (2012) [EP]501 and milo lure me in with reasonable sounding songs that i actually kinda enjoy, and then mobscene and habstrakt stab me in the back. habstrakt's is so tedious... 2.5 | |
Dillon FrancisSomething, Something, Awesome (2012) [EP]the last track used to be in constant rotation in middle school. coming back it... doesnt really hold up at all. its very thin sounding and kinda disappointing. the other two are better in this regard, the best track is probably the first one 2.5 | |
Pegboard NerdsGuilty Pleasures EP (2013) [EP]energetic, instrumental if u couldnt tell im just going thru some old moombah stuff i used to fw because im in the mood. obv best track is the razor sharp vip, real 1s remember how hype ts was when it dropped its still p heavy to this day. the rest of the tracks are boring exercises in versatility: highroller is a pretty repetitive and uninventive festival trap / rap take, how u feelin is just boring as fuck, but the last track stands out a bit for its decent, modern take on justice/daft punk sample-techno with a lukewarm drop. 3 | |
DotEXEHipster Cutthroat (2012) [EP]rhythmic, repetitive, sampling, humorous, male vocalist first track is an alltimer, still goes nuts to this day. never heard the second until now, its fine but the drop a bit of a letdown. wish i got more into him when i was younger 3.5 | |
Space LacesNew World Order (Space Laces Remix) (2012) [Single]veri nyce. massive stuf 3.5 | |
BugloudBonfire (Bugloud Remix) (2014) [Single]pretty cool remix reminds me of the skrillex koan sound remix a bit. a liiittle too glitch-hop-swing-y for me but it might be cool in a dj set 3 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairAirliner Tycoon (2025) [Single]energetic, playful, rhythmic, deadpan, love good return to form, bro just does not stop rapping. lovely cover 3.5 | |
Lets Be FriendsPill on Francis (2014) [Single]been listening to their stuff a lot lately. im still not totally convinced they werent victim to hella ghost prod but whatever. super fun stuff, real unique sounding drop. exciting i used to love this cover a lot when i was younger. tf was i on 3.5 | |
Őszi almanach [Autumn Almanac] (1985)maybe im just not built for boring hungarian cinema like that but this was so tedious. you can feel the seedlings of tarr's real style begin to sprout here but 1) hes still stuck in his docudrama phase and this is littered with uncomfortably intimate close ups that feel more contrived than expressive and 2) he is much too romantic in his execution here, partly because it seems he has no idea how to shoot in color (thankfully this is his final feature length color film). felt like 5 hours, but there are a few theatrical displays i found inventive or exciting, so i cant totally dog on it. 2.5 | |
XilentChoose Me (2011) [EP]Melodic Dubstep, Electro House, Brostep, Neurofunk bthehh its rly boring. i liked the cover tho 2.5 | |
Szürkület [Twilight] (1990)reignites my love for slow cinema. powerful atmosphere, very in touch with nature which i loved. big bonus points for the totally alien acting - feels so weird i love it. will be investigating this fekete szeria nonsense soon enough... 3.5 | |
SoltanThe Realm (2017) [Single]nice, if a bit unfocused 3 | |
fakemink, Ecco2k & MechatokMakka (2025) [Single]New Rave, Post-Punk Revival, Chillwave, Electro Hop boastful, male vocalist, party, fashion, nocturnal meh, its fine. the most disappointing part is the beat but common mechatok L is common mechatok L ecco sounds nice here 3 | |
David ShawtyHatch (2025)Rage, Hardcore [EDM], Experimental Hip Hop surreal, male vocalist, dense, eclectic, playful still relistening to this but its not bad. very unique consistent vision here that he hasnt had since psycho nitemare. im not huge on the rage or hardstyle stuff but most of this production is pretty ridiculous. also still feels very much like a david shawty album which i appreciate. second half clears 3 for now | |
Panelkapcsolat [The Prefab People] (1982)probably the best of his "social realism" trilogy, all the skills he was working on have been satisfactorily sharpened here. Samdaman55 "Works well as a quick character and social study" effigy105 "admittedly the most daring in style [of his first three], breaking more than the others with typical documentary style in allowing for more meandering lengthy takes and a circular narrative structure." both leads give fantastic performances 3 | |
Unfriended (2014)the skype call format is such a perfect parallel for camerawork on a large group - rather than relying on blocking, shot/reverse shot strategies we can simply emphasize who we want to listen to or watch by making them the highlighted user and minimizing everyone else's cams. the opening scene is so chilling. especially when the screams come in. :( 4 | |
Szabadgyalog [The Outsider] (1982)what tarr does get right is making us dislike the main character - such a bum! but this falls short for me thanks to its length and self indulgence without substance. tarr continues to stay in docudrama territory, theres a lot of two person dialogue sections that feel like interviews. 2.5 | |
SpiritboxTsunami Sea (2025)female vocalist, heavy, passionate, aggressive, melancholic totally forgot they were even dropping singles for this. its cool. about as enjoyable for me as their last but i felt like it leaned more into the pop stuff. title track is pretty damn good. not sure what all the huff and puff about the mixing is 3 | |
NoutA Vos Risques Et Perils (2001)dont let the buff ass cat fool you - this is pretty boring 2.5 | |
Családi tűzfészek [Family Nest] (1979)quite claustrophobic - something that ends up being a stylistic motif in Tarr's early career are the uncomfortable and unflinching close up shots. i enjoyed how inactive the narrative felt here, even if the dinner scenes felt tedious theres an undeniably alluring attitude about it that i cant ignore 3 | |
tripleSASSEMBLE25 (2025)Contemporary R&B, Electropop, UK Garage, Drum and Bass happy, female vocalist, love, playful, lush so boring. they really need to switch up the production. last track isnt bad 2.5 | |
InfibulistEP (2025) [EP]heavy, energetic, chaotic, uncommon time signatures, technical yo whats up im matt stephens and because all the music i make is fucking awesome im going to stop doing that forever 🤘🤘🤘 im smart as fuck 3.5 | |
goreshit(still) too young (2025) [Single]energetic, sampling, rhythmic, melodic, party title is title its not as good as the original but its a cool hardcore rework. warm. i hope he keeps revisiting his old stuff - even if i dont love this its 1000x more interesting than whatever the fuck hes been releasing recently 3 | |
Cry Macho (2021)not sure if i have the language yet to explain what it is about this thats so effective but clint is operating on a whole other level here. the way he captures naturalistic beauty, plays with family and surrogates, the meta-career-retrospective, the down to earth atmosphere; flawless stuff - it shocks me how poorly received it is. 3.5 | |
Richard Jewell (2019)hauser gives the performance of the century; a couple of seriously moving scenes, and the way clint is able to pull so much emotion out of it as well. fantastic stuff 3.5 | |
Kero Kero BonitoForever Summer Holiday (2017) [Single]summer, party, playful, energetic, anthemic its getting hot again. and i made a new summer playlist. i like that ritual. its very blocky and quite obnoxious but theres nice feelings. its good to be reminded of this. im glad she stopped singing in japanese 💔 3 | |
DJ U☆Hey?Trance Paradise 4 (2006) [DJ Mix]step up from the last 2. good first and last third 3 | |
A034A-Zerothirtyfuckinfour (2000)ITS A ZERO THIRTY FUCKIN FOUR GET YOUR ASS ON THE FLOOR 3.5 | |
Macbeth (1982)im not gonna pretend im some macbeth expert or even that im at all interested in shakespeare but turin horse is playing in 35mm near me in june so im gonna sift through as many of his films as i can before then. the theatrical aspects are cool, his super claustrophobic camerawork helps by letting the settings kind of fade in and out. feels really fast despite being a 2 take tarr film lol na | |
Invaders From Mars (1986)too 80s adventure family movie for me. theres still elements of hoopers style though: paranoia, light work, fascination with structure. props for the practical effects, im surprised the budget was less than 10 million. 2.5 | |
The Funky TechniciansAirtight (Remix) / Sound Trak (1996) [Single]first track is calm but the second is tge standout for me. nice synths or melodies or whatever 3 | |
Signal ElectriqueSignal (2000)first track feels like some contrived electro whatevrr but the rest is pretty fun excitingness 3.5 | |
strabimonspirit within (2024)perfect. wandering walls. hum 3.5 | |

Forever UnitedFinal Chance (2025) [Single]miss you 3.5 | |
DJ BillyboolDYR (2025)Uplifting Trance, Eurodance, Happy Hardcore futuristic, energetic, party, rhythmic, male vocalist cool that he's finally dropping full length stuff. overall decent, some nifty production and vocal parts but nothing i'd come back to. the tags are kinda annoying but the one thats just "they don't know" is fire as fuck 3 | |
DJ U☆Hey?Trance Paradise 3 (2005) [DJ Mix]read previous entry 2.5 |
DJ U☆Hey?Trance Paradise 2 (2005) [DJ Mix]mleh pretty boring. pushes the annoying vocal samples a bit too much 2.5 | |
Crocodile (2000)think it only makes sense to watch this after eaten alive. some elements of hoopers style are here, and i read that he wanted to do something like completely different than what hes done before, but this loses me. it really feels no different than the syfy movies it predates, its also just pretty boring. he said in an interview he aimed to capture the original atmosphere of TCM but idk i didnt feel it. 2.5 | |
Eaten Alive (1976)so much magic. i always mention how tobe explores physical location but this is something else. its fascinating how this plays out so theatrcally, centered around a main "stage" and a few side stages with interchangeable sets (analogy of course), experimenting with how light and visibility can completely alter the way we perceive location, hidden locations and trapdoors revealing entirely new sub-settings within the total, its brilliant stuff. not to mention the perfect score - actually so unsettling and alien, at times mimicking screams or whimpers, it feels like a voice inside our characters that narrates to us their thoughts. i think my only complaint is that it gets a bit tedious in the middle but the third act picks up perfectly to save it 3.5 | |
TorsofuckFeasting on Carved Remains (2025) [EP]rhythmic, lo-fi, noisy, male vocalist, aggressive wb yall. absolutely mud dumb production, sounds pretty distinct in their discog. cool. 3 | |
7038634357Eye Contact (2025) [Single]Ambient, Progressive Electronic Ambient Pop, Drone, Berlin School, Minimal Synth nocturnal nice, but nothing special. i like that theyre using their vocals more 3 | |
7038634357Fall Apart (2025) [Single]Progressive Electronic, Alternative R&B, Epic Collage Cloud Rap, Glitch Pop, Epic Collage lovely. forever united feelings; necrotik fissure cover 3 | |
f5veSequence 01 (2025)Bubblegum Bass, Dance-Pop, Trap [EDM] female vocalist, playful, quirky, futuristic, energetic first half is already entirely released so im not gonna touch on that. sugar free venom is pretty good, sassy vibes and i didnt even clock the kesha feature on first listen thats cool. jump is fun, but bow and real girl were just dumb tracks. overall though its solid, gonna be one of my most played of the year prob 3.5 | |
BmhotAntichristek Live Set (2010)serious all nighter no nonsense keep it pumping turn it up a few shoddy transitions in the second disc but its all one big live take, i would probably have messed up a lil too 3.5 | |
Dark Skies just running through all his films. i may check out his other tv episode works like taken e1. well its definitely a tv pilot. feels weird to rate as a movie i might take off the rating if i really think ab it but whatever. the toughest part is seeing how neutered this format makes tobe's style; even the aspect ratio contributes to this as it seriously hinders how he explores the physical world of his characters, and also limits what he can do with his framing. i also find it so disappointing how exciting alien visuals during this era were but how uninspired the sequences they belonged to were. 2.5 | |
DJ U☆Hey?Trance Paradise (2004) [DJ Mix]liked the fifth one enough so gonna check out the rest of them wainot. more of the same. consistent 3 | |
xaviersobased & OsamaSon#BasedSlime (2025) [EP]Rage, Dark Plugg, Jerk, Experimental Hip Hop male vocalist, rhythmic, drugs, noisy, repetitive fuuuck fuck yes. both sound so good here love when xav is rly rapping like just hella honed in not on some funny experimental shit but also so cool to hear osamason on some of these weirder experimental beats legendary stuff 3.5 | |
DJ DeanEye of a Champ (2006)in love with if i could be you and recently discovered its a dream, minus well check out the full thing like many of these trance endeavors its bloated and long, but a handful of tracks including the aforementioned save this from being a waste of time. 3 | |
DrippingArchaic Scriptures of Epistemology (2025) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal Technical Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal heavy, cryptic, surreal, sampling, dark yup yup yupppp big things coming fsfs hearing Passing gave me such a massive smile 3.5 | |
xxffcyuvcuiWorst Day Ever (2025) [EP]raw, passionate i really like how soft and sincere this is 3.5 | |
Jenifer had some extra time so we tackled this one too. its an interesting little watch. unique idea kind of. idk, it didnt strike me as deeply an as flashingly as Hooper's episodes but its an entertaining watch. 3 | |
Dance of the Dead while not quite as effective as The Damned Thing, its still another great late hooper picture. swaths of late-Scott editing and a handful of really visually overwhelming scenes. the plot of this is kind of crazy, it definitely wouldve worked better as a feature length, but at the same time i was disappointed at how slow some of it felt. more generational trauma, only this time we're breaking the cycle rather than letting it drown us 3 | |
The Damned Thing masters of horror mthursday and tobe time continues always been really excited to get into this one, was well worth the wait. oozing (no pun intended) with style, so nice to see tobe get proper funding and support to just do his thing on a project without any interference. grossly warm, and the way characters move through this world feels so stuffy and claustrophobic. real painful trauma. you cant outrun your fathers sins and you cant save anyone from their fate. flanery's total dejection and languidity makes for one of my favorite performances ever. i wish he could have made this a feature length but im still totally happy with whats already here ❤️ 3.5 | |
Styles • Breeze • Clear-VuStyles • Breeze • Clear-Vu (2006) [EP]ive heard all these before idk why i never rated this. good stuff clear vu the goat i just wish both side 2nd tracks were more 3 | |
Domino (2005)cant believe ive waited this long to watch it. last of his late that i needed to see. so much crazier than i was expecting, like all of his late tendencies turned up to 12, especially some of the scenes with intense color grading. looks really amazing. my only gripe gotta be that its kinda long and gets a bit tedious in the latter middle, but its fine. the ending actually had me tearing up. scott loved the world and he saw beauty in everyone 3.5 | |
Team ChameshiTrance Paradise 5 (2007) [DJ Mix]thanks for everything townandcountry. cant expect to like all of it, its def got its fair share of boring ah tracks, but driving around in the sun listening to this its hard not to romanticize and humanize everything. brings out the best in the world 3 | |
vai5000Extrasensory (2025) [Mixtape]Digicore, Electronic Dance Music, Glitch Pop Cloud Rap, Hyperpop, Bubblegum Bass, Experimental Hip Hop futuristic, energetic, melodic, rhythmic, playful the rotting friend put me on. kind of bloated but theres lots of potential and a handful of great tracks, especially in the last leg it picks up hella. could def have lived without the 2hollis interpolation cmon now 3 | |
DJ DeanIf I Could Be You (2006) [Single]female vocalist, romantic was just thinking about how the trajectory of my life basically summed up the discovery of this as a statistical miracle. getting into hardstyle through hervoice's ratings and lists led me to considering a hardstyle mix of my own and in the process i had to download Black & White's We Explode (DJ Activator Remix) which just so happened to be a track on DJ Networx Vol. 31, but not any track, the only track that slsk user mlnl erroneously had swapped the metadata of with DJ Dean's If I Could Be You (Neo Cortex Remix). a completely ridiculous string of coincidences and accidents that led us here. the original mix is definitely great, but the most important side of this single is unequivocally neo cortex's remix. the perfect hands up track, and im sure DJ Dean felt a deep shame when he heard that synth lead and thought "how did i not realize this before". the other remix is whatever: dance floor friendly, but im not a fan of electric guitars in my trance. 3.5 | |
fun.We Are Young (2011) [Single]Indie Pop, Alt-Pop, Stomp and Holler, Big Music anthemic, melodic, optimistic, male vocalist, party "the angels never arrived but i can hear the choir" chills every time. 3.5 | |
Venomous Urotoxic Asphyxiation of the Dying Flesh / TxLxFxSxDxSxPxExDxHConsumed Rupture of a Bloated Vital Organ Difficult to Remove Due to a Pilonidal Tumor in Process in a Necrosed Parotid From a Cardiac Pemphigus (2025)vua... continues to be the best thing in gore ever as fuck tlf side is fine. i like the vocals but i think its too long 3 | |
EpticDarkstar (2025) [EP]Bass House, Tearout, Hybrid Trap energetic, sampling, party, rhythmic, heavy its nice to know that after an entire decade since i last gave a fuck about him, eptic has done very little with his style and continues to make the same kind of bwompy edm he was making when i was in middle school. wasnt a fan of the disco-y track. space laces carries as per usual. 2.5 | |
ZappamanSexual Healing (2009) [Single]gym why are we having sex on the streets?! 3 | |
L' été dernier [Last Summer] (2023)last one of the night, literally been planned and shelved for over a year now, but the stars aligned and we finally pushed through. im only really familiar with Brève traversée [Brief Crossing], so im definitely missing a huge amount of directorial context and metatext, but i really loved this. similar to brief crossing, it also explores the idea of female authority sex, only this one is a lot more... warm! interesting to me how breillat frames her male characters, who seem to get much more screen time nude than Anne. really self destructive movie too. all the scenes with the little asian kids made me smile, so cute. 3.5 | |
Sully (2016)kind of impulse watch we kept joking about it and we have time so why not captivating story, the best scenes are in the plane of course when the theatrics go away and its unfiltered pilot jargon. hanks is great here, perfect cast for this role honestly. as an eastwood though, this is definitely one of his weaker ones ive seen. 3 | |
Spontaneous Combustion (1989)oh and its also tobe tuesday duh kind of absolutely ridiculous. i wish he wrote more of his movies because they always turn out fucking crazy. the plot of this is just insane, but that aside theres always like 5 things happening at once in any given scene; the movies primary mode of language is somewhere between overwhelming and exhaustion. especially by the third act, when essentially nothing even matters anymore and everyone is lying to you and no one knows the truth. what also really stuck out to me that i think is something Hooper plays with in all of his movies is how he explores architecture and uses location as a narrative tool. all of the apartment scenes feel so strange, the way the hallway casts deep impenetrable shadows everywhere, spotlighting our hero's face or distorting the viewers perception of space. similarly in the lab, Hooper is able to creatively flourish and get a few ingenious shots out of the subtly odd layout of the rooms. and of course i cant not mention the flashback sequence. give this editor some head! 3.5 | |
The Searchers (1956)also getting started with western summer. feel like thematically i both missed a lot on first viewing and am still unpacking everything here, but god damn is it a picture. masterful framing and shooting, i honestly loved how much he played with the damn doorways. gorgeous colors as well; and i loved the fluidity of everything on screen, just the way Ford orchestrates his scenes. loved the daytime scenes adjusted in post to look nighttime. 3.5 | |
The Mule (2018)movie tuesday , which means there will be movies! loved it. didnt expect it to be kind of silly at times, esp all of clints boomerisms. love how enthralling his story telling is - i could probably watch this 3 or 4 more times and not get tired of it. handful of gorgeous shots and transitions dont hurt either. a better review expounds here. 3.5 | |
XioxAnakronismlast one for the night. good vibes. but i told you, the floor just isnt the same... 3 | |
TomahawkHavoc Sound Mix 04 (2001) [DJ Mix]now this. this is what ive been trying to tell you about. all this cutting and shuffling and juggling and mixing... its all farce when youre dealing with the real underground. the dance floor... it wont be the same after tonight... 3.5 | |
Mem PamalAcid Test 02 (2002)decent. despite what the packaging says it isnt really all acid, but i did appreciate the acid bits. good little breakbeat shuffles too 3 | |
Troubles FêteAztekyeaaaaaahhhhh the second side kinda saves this but the first side so boring and i actually even disliked a few tracks 2.5 | |

Space LacesThis Way (2025) [Single]mechanical, sampling, dense, heavy, noisy chill. im not the hugest on this tearout stuff, it probably works way better in a festival setting anyway though. hope this is a lead for something 3 | |
YäleRaskattas Livealien invasion your mind belongs to us now 3.5 | |
Picco vs. Jens O.The Jump Anthem (2007) [Single]random impoulse. dont dig the vocals but maybe thats just the jump style. fun ig 3 | |
Arlington Road (1999)super mean spirited movie, pellington hates the fucking government man. all the camerawork is so unsettling, like this gross layer of grease and sweat you can never wipe off. but the real highlights are when the narrative takes a backseat and the visuals guide you through confusion and agony. amazing this was pre 9/11 3.5 | |
TechnoboyVita (2007) [Single]lovely. great synths and i love the vocal gating stuff. not sure why b side is a different title wholly. its the same track but a slightly different cut/mix 3.5 | |

Wako / Lego Sound SystemWako Meets Lego (2006) [DJ Mix]glorious, super fun and wonky. second half starts off a bit shaky but recovers well. love these multi-untitled-track freetekno releases, i should make a list 3.5 | |
The Woman in Black (2012)gf wanted to watch this. my sister had a phase with this movie when i was younger so i was mostly familiar with it. kind of exists and is just nothing. another slop mess that tries to explore a houses trauma through visions of ghosts and jumpscares but with no style and no sense of true identity. daniel radcliffe confusingly fumbles from scene to scene and every subplot that happens outside the house feel like pyramids of cards. na | |
69dbFine Line Mix (1998)yeah idk. thin and not a whole lot of conviction. 2.5 | |
SensoriaMake It Real (1996) [Single]atmospheric, energetic, rhythmic, sampling, party a fun little track. its sweet. i wonder what the oldest anime cover ever is 3 | |
Various ArtistsDJ Networx Vol. 31 (2007) [Compilation]ill touch on it later, but a special track on this caught my attention so i sank the two and a half hours it asks for into it one day at work. a huge compilation like this is bound to fall mostly flat, but theres enough candy here to justify a listen to anyone dedicated enough. 3 | |
Une femme est une femme [A Woman Is a Woman] (1961)didnt realize how fun this would be. on some serious smiling shit. love the energy karina carries and godards filmmaking is impeccable here; bursting with creativity and experimentation in narrative, image and sound alike. 3.5 | |
Mem PamalMars Assault (1998) [EP]awesome cuts n shit, lots of energy makes me move 3.5 | |
Necrotik Fissure⨺ (2021)abstract algebra final. was killing myself all day over it so nf time and fuzzy drifting. majorly consistent, each track just feels like one quarter part of a larger 4 hour total piece. some stuttering becomes apparent in the last track. very comfortable 3.5 | |
Black & WhiteWe Explode (2006) [Single]pretty nice. love how much hype it builds, that vocal loop is some real club shit. not sure which mix i prefer more 3.5 | |

Ian[untitled] (1999) [EP]nice noisy industrial vibe but i wish it did a bit more 3 | |
GotekCrack (2000) [DJ Mix]oh yeah this is what im talking about good early 2ks breakneck shuffle strobing lets hit the dance floor and party until our shoes fall apart 3.5 | |
Chaotik MindAlienage 001 [DJ Mix]good four on the floor bumping. alien 3 | |
PzekoMamut (2001) [DJ Mix]its find but its a bit too thin for me. the second half has this really incredible noise bit that was a very pleasant surprise 3 | |
Lego Sound SystemLegoland [DJ Mix]great hardcore leaning smiles only freetek megamix. a bit confused with the info on this though. this is supposed to be a page for legoland 1, but on the cd it says "0005", and a legoland 5 does exist, but on discogs it says its got comedy in it? but skimming through the legoland 5 youtube upload it just seems like a standard freetekno mix. who knows 3.5 | |
Scanners (1981)the only appropriate response in a post-Shrouds world is to just finish all of cronenbergs filmog even if its boring as fuck. i respect the effort to make this very alien and disconnected - its got a special atmosphere that feels similar to Halloween III: Season of the Witch - but my god is it so boring. maybe on paper it sounded cool, but if the climactic battle of your story is literally just two guys staring at each other you can only imagine how little happens outside of that. so much exposition for a movie about reading minds. 2 | |
Richard BartzSubway (1998) [EP]made eggs and cinnamon rolls. decent acid stuff wish it did just a bit more though. may still go through his acid releases under this name 3 | |
MacEwen PattersonDa' Juice (1996) [DJ Mix]workout jamming. its nice. sometimes cute, a few real effective grooves. love the cover. last 15 minutes are pretty good 3 | |
BladeeSte the Beautiful Martyr 1st Attempt (2025) [EP]ethereal, mythology, Christian, male vocalist, atmospheric new bladee is fool era throwback vibes. its fine. nice to hear the ripsquad tag again. last track is easily the best track 3 | |
The Shrouds (2024)mm not entirely sure how i want to talk about this. i can totally see why its as divisive as it is but honestly this might be his best movie to date, at least his best late effort. only cronenberg is exploring grief this way. a movie about fetishizing and perversion and obsession and jealousy and products and bodies and conspiracies and lying and cheating and buying and selling and letting go. burying it all behind and carrying it with you. loved cassel in this, he does an amazing job. 3.5 | |
HayworthINPYFAD (I Now Pronounce You Fucked and Depressed) (2009)chaotic, dissonant, manic, anxious, noisy def not as good as Thunder and Lightning but still a decent little slab of mathy sassy production suffers so much. muddy. doesnt help them. also felt a little sloppy? 3 | |
Favorite 水 [Favorite Water]偽の黒猫 EP (2017) [EP]repetitive, surreal, sampling, energetic, manic yep like candy but it tastes a little gross 2.5 | |
BoggïOuïr (1997) [EP]definitely weird. not my cup of tek tho. i think this is more tribal style? the vinyl channel that uploaded these tracks is crazy idk if yall have seen but the formats are just nuts. like these long rainbow leds with a live bpm tracker and floating jpegs of the packaging its crazy 2.5 | |
Rien / Train CemeteryRien / Train Cemetery (2017)Harsh Noise Wall, Ambient Noise Wall cleaned apartment rien side nice nothing so special weird panning anomalies sometimes tc side class as always love you tc 3 | |
a(sex) / Big City Clitsa(sex) / Big City Clits (2015)Harsh Noise, Power Electronics asex side is nice as always bcc side was boring but interesting noise ig 3 | |
ghjmty775vMoney Will Flow to You Non-Stop After 5 Minutes | Receive HUGE Riches and Infinite Abundance (2025) [EP]repetitive, noisy, mysterious, instrumental awesome raw 5 star cover 3 | |
WarmthDebbie Downer and We All Follow (2007)lo-fi, calm, warm, peaceful, soothing thanks rotting guessed did laundry to this. like a blanket. love the second track devolving into ... youll see 3.5 | |
jasminblüten im dezemberDu Und Die Erinnerungen an Dich Sind So Weit Entfernt Und Dennoch Könnte Ich Niemals Vergessen Was Du Mir Angetan Hast (2025)last one of the night. first track is quite comfy, lovely little anw. second im not so sold on. screeching dragging noise. 3 | |
Chaotik Mind & YäleFull Bass 06 (2000) [EP]yales track is amazing classik stuff endless energy but then every thing on chaotik side sux 2.5 | |
AscenderLive (1997) [EP]its a bit dull but the B side is pretty cool. saves it from 2.5 hell 3 | |
FKY / XioxEscape / Groblerok (2001) [Single]fun bleeping blooping on each track. cozy 3 | |
SummrsBellworld (2018) [EP]male vocalist rly good. super consistent. he has such good hooks and melodies. some of the best plugg beats ever too, thanks shave 3.5 | |
ghjmty775vweek (2025) [EP]gorgeous. no issues with meme walls but it is kind of nice seeing seb make a feelings one <3 3.5 | |
Liquified InsidesUnplugged EP (2024) [EP]lol can i be honest it was kind of fire. a bit inspo. just dug the very lofi nonstop midi improv concept. its a fun 11 minutes 3 | |
a(sex)Lustful Innocence (2015)more first two tracks are quite ripping love how he uses delay but the second two feel a bit slower and arent as rewarding. still good 3 | |
Ghost of GardeniaIMAGE_20210828_081855 (2021)could easily be one of my fav wall projects. love the vulnerability and raw sound here. amazing aesthetic 3.5 | |
Rabid (1977)a little pregame before i shroud it up. gonna 100% his filmog so might as well get the 70s slop out of the way. yeah the bones of everything he would nail in his later career are here but holy moly are they bones. theres nothing even offensively wrong with this its just so boring. also just the most ridiculous idea for a movie ever 2.5 | |
Les Boucles EtrangesLBE 002 (1996) [EP]rhythmic, psychedelic, energetic, dense, tribal opens up promisingly but falls apart very fast. annoying and off grid vocal samples signalled the beginning of the end for me, and then nothing on the B side was all that exciting. le sigh 2.5 | |
69dbLSD (1996) [EP]drugs, instrumental, rhythmic jeez this is boring. must be the minimal tech influence. im not that deep yet 2.5 | |
GotekLaptopnik 1 (2005)so lovely. really dug the continuous mix format, lots of pure energy and creativity, constantly deconstructing and reconstructing sounds. 3.5 | |
CurleyAxe Breaker (1998) [EP]Freetekno, Industrial Hardcore rhythmic, energetic, mechanical, noisy neither track is particularly exciting but they are good. not as hardcore as the tags would suggest 3 | |
Robbert MononomUntitled (1998) [Single]while the first one is nothing to write home about, the second track is pure unadulterated techno mastery. ripping synths - and a very cool little backstory to it as well! 3.5 | |
T.E.F. / Sickness / FacialmessSchizoid (2004)tef side isnt his best but is still good fun sickness side is maybe the most boring but is still a decent batch of harsh mess facialmess is surprising with sampling and sound collagjng and BREAKCORE?! 3 | |
AxIxLxIxTxSxOxAxPxHxHumanworm [Single]so obtuse and weird. really exciting stuff. wish there was more 3.5 | |
bimby1 catsBright Light (2025) [Single]lovely. a bit long but if you fw her jerk thisll stick for you. nice prod 3 | |
a(sex)Portraits in Self-Abuse (2015)massive fucked up cutting depressive starving will dig thru the rest 3.5 | |
AntropofagiaSarcophagidae (2025)lovely aesthetic. weirdly comfy. love the dynamic shift over the entire track 3.5 | |
SonnyGypsyhook (2009) [EP]Electro House, Indietronica, Glitch Pop, Fidget House, Electro-Industrial male vocalist, energetic, noisy, eclectic, cryptic wild cover super fun, a lot of skeletons of what he would flesh out later in his discog. love the hooks. all but one remix were really fun. not sure what made him cover his own song in japanese but whatever. isnt ts a slur now 3.5 | |
EnterorrhagiaAutoamputation Subject (2016)raw, sampling, disturbing, noisy regular bubbling gore grind with too many samples. would be a 3 but i was forced to relive deadpool 2.5 | |
Acid ScoutMusik für Millionen (1996)energetic, rhythmic, party, futuristic, urban loads more consistent and bouncing than his last album but it lacks the great acid work that his early stuff is so good for. still, pot and junkyard are standouts as well as a few other tracks 3 | |
MuslimgauzeLazhareem Ul Leper (2010)Tribal Ambient, Post-Industrial inventive little loops that are either curious or annoying, with very few worth any further investigation. weird experimental side of him i wasnt expecting, but cool ig 2.5 | |
Spiral TribeEP 23 No. 2 (1996) [EP]more amazing stuff, a bit more consistent than the last one but less stand out highlights. still major 3.5 | |
SP 23SP 23 (1994) [EP]major. grooving. a1 and b1 so massive and fun 3.5 | |
Meltdown MickeyMeltdown in Manhattan (1998) [DJ Mix]my main man meltdown mickey brief moments of epicness but overall is the weaker variant of freetek that probably sounds way better on a PA under the influence 3 | |
Napoleon (2023)last one of the night. another directors cut because fuck you did not expect this to be as funny as it was, but i guess it makes sense it should be a bit satirical in nature. captivating war sequences as well, to quote a fellow rymer they "capture the awe of battle without glorifying war". very very violent. i think the great visuals are here but are a bit few and far between, so i didnt love this as much as my friend. 3 | |
Monster Hunter (2020)massive stuff. first 30 minutes is so fucking evil man, constant pain and fear. but it breaks through and becomes more fun and exciting as it goes. love jovovich in this, her alliance with Jaa was very wholesome. visually super fascinating. love how PWSA dramaticizes shots and brings a lot of emphasis out of certain shots. great editing as well, the teleporting scenes are kinda flooring ngl. great mixture of cg and practical effects. 3.5 |
Djinn (2013)its movie night once again and we are back at it with djinn. buddy tracked down the directors cut so thats what this entry will be about does so much better than the theatrical cut. adds a lot more breadth to the entire thing while cutting out the repetitive exposition scenes. feels so oppressive - as soon as the couple gets off their plane its nothing but constant confusion and suffering. it feels suffocating - pressure on your chest and and swelling in your throat. very uncomfortable. plenty of cultural themes as well - what it means to be an arabic woman or a mother - but thats not my specialty so ill leave that as an exercise for the reader. i know it isnt intentional, and it comes from the unofficiality and unedited nature, but the quality of this really elevated it for me. there are these really dark shots, the camera is just glaring into these holes of hallways and corners, or during the fog scenes, or even just a dim wall, and the lower resolution brings out these really heavy alluring gradients, it feels like quicksand. super evil stuff. i hope one day it can see an official release 3.5 | |
Pride & Prejudice (2005)went to see in theatres with gf, glad i made the last minute decision. incredibly warm and bubbling with life and chemistry. every scene feels like water rolling through streams. a movie that totally understands how to convey natural beauty and light. by and far some of the best performances; its much too easy to fall into their world and be totally absorbed by every micro-interaction - i knew going into this that Austens character writing was something next level but its put to film so elegantly hear - Knightly and Macfayden feel like they carry real gravity and are tied at the end of their strings destined to crash into each other. not to downplay everyone else, its stellar performances across the board. too much to summarize - lots of smiling and tears. 4 | |
Sylviranticrystal EP (2016) [EP]Brostep, Glitch Hop, Tearout [Brostep] Drumstep, Deconstructed Club, New Age mechanical, dark, instrumental, chaotic, raw really dope. crazy these r outtakes. each track is massive sound design stank face 3.5 | |
Burqa Boyzأسلحة ضخ جاف حدب (2017) [Mixtape]Dabke, Jersey Club, Juke, Miami Bass, Plunderphonics, Breakbeat sampling, party, rhythmic, energetic, eclectic weird to me this is so popular and somehow bolded. really gross obvious appropriation, literally just racist. besides that its pretty boring. nothing 2.5 | |
Minimalistic SourceMinimalistic Source 3 (1993) [Single]i was like gabber? this isnt gabber... and then it hit me. like a gabber kick last track weighs it down. fun otherwise 3 | |
The DeepAngel Tattoo (2025) [Single]K-Pop, Electropop, Electro Hop, Dance-Pop, UK Garage, Euro House female vocalist, party, energetic, rhythmic, melodic very addicting lol. super cool smart production stuff and great melodies vocal lines 3.5 | |
Biochip C.Break It Oldschool -100% Classic Breakbeats- (2007) [DJ Mix]sampling, party, ethereal, energetic, rhythmic bouncing fun. exactly what it says on the package. a big cheesy at times but how can youu hate this? 3 | |
Robbert MononomMononom 001 (1997) [EP]a1 b1 both freetekno masterpieces. b2 feels like a completely different artist /neg 3.5 | |
BeroshimaACID ORANGE 000 (1994) [EP]final acid orange im going to listen to (i know there are a few past AO020 but idc ab them). daunting listen because 40 minutes of first time techno wanking from beroshima seemed really grating (surprise: it was). a lot of nothing happening and very sparse spread of ideas. b side felt like an eternity 2.5 | |
Acid ScoutSafari (1994)repetitive, nocturnal, energetic, rhythmic, futuristic sigh... so disappointing. the one review sums it up pretty well. just too soft for a 70 minute acid thing. back quarter carries, and its laden with interesting things, but man i was expecting a lot more 3 | |
gapyear / KosheGapyear / Koshe (2023) [EP]Screamo, Noise Pop, Slacker Rock heavy, introspective, repetitive, noisy, lo-fi jesus christ. rap producer tags on my below average screamo. just rubs me so the wrong way. 2 | |
海老 [Ebi]Hi EP (1994) [EP]not my cup of tea. i dont really have the muscles to appreciate this kind of thing - i suppose its got a nice atmosphere 2.5 | |
ZektSenseless (1993) [EP]its acid wednesday. what are you doing? sufficiently pounding. good gym stuff. second half falls off though 3 | |
KOAN Sound & AsaSanctuary EP (2013) [EP]Neurohop, Modern Classical, Atmospheric Drum and Bass, Liquid Drum and Bass, Trip Hop, Dubstep, Chillstep, Broken Beat atmospheric, melodic, calm, mellow, spring yall know how much i love ending things on bad notes. tonight is no exception. not that this is necessarily bad tho its very well produced and sure its creative but it feels like nice pretty sounds with no substance. idk, not my thing, i dont care for it at all. 2.5 | |
april 22 yea bringing this format back again played a show with a few bands. i was hungry and thirsty the whole time. our set was successful though we all did good, it was p loud and even though i dropped a stick and one broke i recovered well. tried out some new gimmicks that worked out neatly. Omnimorph opened for us. i didnt get to catch their whole set but it was some atmo black metal vibes. good drummer. she was super nice - she was backlining and was very communicative and helpful. very kind soul Ick played after us. touring band from cali. sludge / hxc punk / thrash stuff. very loud two piece. drummer was cool and they were hella locked in with the guitar feedback. bobo played last. writing this preemptively: love their drummer hes wild as fuck, good weirdo rock music from a bygone era. | |
SP 23Fugitive Future (2019)rhythmic, sampling, nocturnal, party, futuristic expected to hate this but its surprisingly decent. CD and Ix stick to freetekno's roots, the latter playing it quite safe, the former giving two really strong tracks that sound exactly like freetek in the modern age should. 69db's bookending tracks are fine. the last one is good, high energy, but im not so hot on the first two -hop feeling ones. whoever is voting brostep gotta chill 3 | |
Short Bus Pile UpVolumes of Dismal Manifestations Book I (2025) [EP]heavy, death, aggressive, dense, rhythmic as boring, sample-ridden and poorly produced as it is, i have to admit that the opening sample actually floored me it was so funny. i wish they stuck with the audiobook theme ts wouldve been gold 2.5 | |
Puella MagiPuella Magi (2021) [Additional release]very taxing. ruined 3 | |
Burqa Boyzأكثر / مور (2025) [Single]Miami Bass, Ghettotech, Baltimore Club Dabke, Mashup, Jersey Club, Epic Collage sampling, vulgar, party, noisy, lo-fi first track is fine second is meh. wish they just held down some distorted grooves longer 3 | |
VVUP4 Life (2025) [Single]female vocalist chill stuff. not better than aint nobody but its not bad 3 | |
xaviersobased x YhapojjYhaposobased (2023) [EP]rhythmic, melodic, male vocalist, hedonism, sexual cute cover, but that first track is so mid. xav does everythjng he can to save it on the second track but then yhapo ruins it. sigh 2.5 | |
snoaNew (2025)urban, religious, dense, melodic, drugs great, massive emotional vibes. good selfprod stuff, really sincere. love his flows delivery. 3.5 | |
Robbert MononomZeist Rules / Modulate Me / Ice Age (1998) [Single]repetitive, mechanical, rhythmic, heavy, dark knew this guy was special. while A2 is def the weakest track, but the bookending ones are otherworldly. ice age bro. fucking acid from jupiter 4 | |
MononomMononom 000 (1996) [EP]holy freetekno heaven. massive major achievement. pete concrete is insane. b side is untouchable. melting 4 | |
Phase IVPhase IV (1992) [EP]been diging all the breakbeats ive been getting in these techno releases lately. no exception here. very fun. im jumping up and down like a kangaroo 3.5 | |
Various ArtistsZoo Rave 1 (1992) [Compilation]another comp i found at hpb but for whatever reason it was NINE DOLLARS (on discogs for 1... cmon yall). saved it tho so i could check it out anyway. diverse enough that its never boring but theres nothing very noteworthy about it. techno breakbeats stuff that has a slight edge which is fun. one track extensively samples some movies pig squealing scene (iykyk) and at first it was uncomfortable but after like 4 min it just gets irritating. 3 | |
Robbert LatumahinaNumber Eleven (2000) [EP]freetek grail this is super fun, cant wait to dig further into this guys stuff/scene 3.5 | |
FazerHyperspace (1992) [EP]both tracks are fucking awesome. so much energy. dance floor essentials. i say both because they are, to quote discogs, "erroneously" mislabeled on the B side. otherwise its a straightforward great release 3.5 | |
Acid ScoutPot / Junkyard (1996) [Single]Industrial Techno, Ambient Techno, IDM heavy, rhythmic, repetitive, urban, party very lovely, though its not quite as exciting as his other singles. spaced out relaxing vibes though. im very excited to try both his albums 3 | |
Biochip C.Biochip C. E.P. (1992) [EP]Breakbeat, Acid Techno, Acidcore grooving, but it lacks something fundamental that would take it to the next level for me... 3 | |
4DHidden / Mindsafari (1993) [Single]noisy, instrumental, mechanical, aggressive, energetic face melting stuff. goes crazy hard. first > second but both are great. love acid industrial merges like this 3.5 | |
Neil VossTetrisphere (1997) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]Video Game Music, Atmospheric Drum and Bass, Acid Techno, Sequencer & Tracker, Techno Breakbeat, IDM, Big Beat, Acid House, Acid Techno forgot i saved this. i never played this game nor did i know it existed, regardless, as a listening experience its not bad. these are fully fleshed out tracks so it kind of just works as an impromptu album anyway. fun breaks and nifty little acid lines. nothing to write home about but its good as background noise 3 | |
Crimson Peak (2015)birthday request - she loves del torro. im not so big on his style though. very theatrical and kinda whimsical - i get the appeal, but the way he goes about building a landscape feels so... plastic to me. to quote my famous ass friend, "the proceeding images have no harmony." i also just found the story to be really sloppy and mundane. whatever the cool thing though is that its surprisingly gory. i forgot del toro moved like that 2.5 | |
Various ArtistsRave 'Til Dawn (1992) [Compilation]girlfriends birthday today, so its a night on the town! we hit up a few half price books and got some food. been wanting to buy techno comps and this was the perfect excuse. some overpriced, but this was a cheap find at the second store we visited. its pretty boring, that era of super saturated looping chord breakbeat stuff that was actually so popular it made its way into just about every event where there was dancing in the 2000s (even elementary schools!). cant say im too fond of it, but theres fun breaks here that make it less of a slog to sit through. oh well, only 2$. weird idea for a cover too, thats kind of cool. 2.5 | |
Freddie FreshGnarl E.P. (1994) [EP]definitley pounding. i actually kinda liked the first track. 3 | |
Erik & FiedelElektro Cut (1998) [EP]fine stuff. gets your head bobbing 3 | |
Remilia, Sakuya, Flandre, Cirno, Yukari, Youmu, Reimu, Mokou, Sanae & AyaOnna Bloxk Xypher 9ensokyo Cypher 2024 (2024) [Single]triumphant, crime, mellow, female vocalist, posse cut chill. no parts really stood out except remilias. very short for what it is 3 | |
Space LacesOverdrive Remixes (2019) [EP]Tearout [Brostep], Trap [EDM], Riddim sampling, party, aggressive, energetic, noisy every track is fun, but nothing lives up to the highs of the original. the last one was a nice little surprise 3 | |
Laurent HôOverload (1994) [DJ Mix]first half is massive too fun. second falls off majorly and gets a bit meh. 3 | |
999999999X0001000X (2017) [EP]rhythmic, hypnotic, instrumental, dense, repetitive pretty fun. was skeptical at first of tapping into a post-2015 acid techno release but it sufficiently captures the energy im looking for in these. 3 | |
AlaskaDeuxième EP (1995) [EP]mellow, repetitive, surreal, sampling, nocturnal quite alluring at first but lacks depth and longevity. still, the first track is a great moodpiece 2.5 | |
Burqa BoyzMiami Arab Emirates (2012) [Mixtape]Miami Bass, Mashup, Baltimore Club Dabke, Jersey Club, Techno Bass, Plunderphonics, Memphis Rap noisy, lo-fi, sampling, eclectic, rhythmic first track starts off boring but actually has some really insane moments in the second half. b side is worthless 3 | |
HimeraY.M.I.L.S.E (Playtime) (2021) [EP]1 2 good 3 too short 4 why 3 | |
Space LacesHigh Vaultage (2022) [EP]Complextro, Riddim, Future Bass, Fidget House, Bass House dense, eclectic, energetic, party, melodic in line with the rest of the vaultage stuff. i may raise later. track 2 was pretty good 3 | |
KOAN SoundFunk Blaster (2011) [EP]instrumental, urban, rhythmic way too melodic and like "nu-disco"-y; its got that real ugly 2010s edm sound that reminds me of some zedd lol. also just boring mostly. 2.5 | |
NettspendHopscotch (2025) [Music video]Rage, Experimental Hip Hop, Free Car Music Jumpstyle, Chicago Drill, Electroclash male vocalist, playful, chaotic, quirky, surreal lol. like a knock off zatru beat. its fun. he looks silly in the video 3 | |
SkrillexKill Everybody (KOAN Sound Remix) (2011) [Single]sampling, energetic, uncommon time signatures, rhythmic, instrumental the second drop is ridiculous. major stank face. love the brostep sound pallet 3.5 | |
Laurent HôTools For Thought (1994) [EP]got potential but it didnt strike me as anything special. 3 | |
KrilinReplicants "Krilin" (1999) [DJ Mix]Industrial Hardcore, Speedcore just goes nuts. some crazy high tempo stuff thst makes you wanna run around. love the distorted tracks 3.5 | |

BeroshimaUnplugged (1996) [EP]lots of cool ideas here but my god that first tracks sample is so annoying. second one is better but doesnt go anywhere rly 3 | |
Kopftanz#1 (1995) [EP]starts off good but loses traction as it goes. still i wouldnt call it bad - it held my attention for its runtime 3 | |
Frank CastleUntitled (1995) [EP]massive bumping lots of really tasteful decisions and huge tracks. great stuff 3.5 | |
Beroshimaべろしま (1994) [EP]repetitive, nocturnal, psychedelic another beroshima thats definitely decent but does nothing to rise above the bar. 3 | |
Gizz TV & WalkerSpalt (1997) [EP]very nice, definitely cutting shapes to this. good deep bass 3.5 | |
Isola SkillUntitled (1996) [EP]texturally really interesting and pleasant even if its nothing particularly noteworthy as a whole. B2 was great though 3 | |
HotRod & AlbyyPay Attention Mixtape (2011) [Mixtape]fun. some pretty dope flips in here. drags a bit in the middle 3 | |
FormicidaeExo-Skeletal Collection Pack 2016 (2016) [Compilation]heavy, nature, dissonant, chaotic, dense cant believe i slept on this for so long. post ldoh with slam. no bullshitting around. massive 3.5 | |
ЯФВФТИIKRobotnik (1994) [EP]nothing forever 2.5 | |
BeroshimaWar Dance (1994) [EP]energetic, nocturnal, dark, rhythmic, psychedelic his best so far. very consistent pounding sound. gets a bit repetitive as it goes on but its still toe tapping cover is legendary lol 3 | |
LDFDNRTHWSTRN / WSTRN / MDWSTRN Minitour Promo Mix Vol 1 of ___ (2012) [DJ Mix]Chopped and Screwed, Experimental Hip Hop, Trap dense, chaotic, male vocalist, sampling, surreal rly fuckin crazy. first track is legendary. so much fun 3.5 | |
Grind D.C.P.S.Prelude (2005)really good on paper, loved the melodic opening, but then it just does random stupid shitわ and its not very cohesive. bleh 2.5 | |
Death Becomes HerSwiss Army Heart (2025) [EP]Mall Screamo, Melodic Metalcore heavy, melancholic, aggressive, sentimental, energetic eh. stepup from the single earlier this year but i cant say i love it yet. 2.5 | |

xaviersobasedSwagged Out (2025) [Single]Digicore, Lowend, Hybrid Trap, Jersey Club Rap male vocalist the genres lmfao. over the dariacore sound for the most part but this is fun 3 | |
CdatakillSeverity of Gravity (2002) [EP]omg this was so boring. i thought i wanted to go thru low res catalog but after this idk 2.5 | |
Kep1erTIPI-TAP (2024) [EP]2-Step, Alternative R&B, Future Bass female vocalist, rhythmic, playful, melodic, atmospheric competent and usually tasteful but no full songs stuck with me other than the first. may keep going thru their cog 3 | |
Vildhjarta+ ? regnet, the ? + (2025) [Single]heavy, existential, surreal, rain, sentimental yeah i like it but its one of the weaker singles so far. still excited for the full thing 3 | |
Ferrari (2023)lovely. much better than i anticipated, but obviously not on par with his pre-2020s work. felt very relaxed in terms of his usual full throttle filmmaking, but it still had a good decisiveness that is typical of mann's style. really loved driver and cruz in this, and its interesting how mann dissects the family with this story. the facial brightening was insane, kinda hella fw it ngl. after watching this we spent like an hour scrolling through crunchyroll and just talking about the titles 3.5 | |
Venetian Snares7 Sevens.med EP (2000) [EP]drugs, noisy, repetitive, raw, dark classic power breakcore stuff from snares. nothing to write home about but if u like him or breakcore youll like this 3 | |
BeroshimaPlug You !! (1996) [EP]one of the better beroshima ive heard so far, but the b side is just worthless. 3 | |
DJ Ratzki / Jan & CurleyGenetic Performances (1996) [EP]previewing each track seemed promising but the first one kinda hella sucks. the second one is pretty good though, super strong freetek madness 3 | |
ArzachArena / Rub It Out (1995) [EP]Acid Techno, Dub Techno, Illbient hypnotic, repetitive, rhythmic, psychedelic, suspenseful contrary to what everyone else is saying, arena is the highlight for me. amazing drums and great atmosphere. the second track isnt bad but im prob never gonna think ab it again 3.5 | |
Toktok & MoonrakerTrampolin EP (1994) [EP]minimalistic, mechanical, energetic, rhythmic, raw wow this was way more hardcore rhan i anticipated. i was jumpjng abd bouncing and being so excited! 3.5 | |
CulverSeven Eyes (2016) [EP]so comfortable. blankets. picnics and small breeze. 3.5 | |
Space LacesVaultage 003 (2021) [DJ Mix]Bass House, Riddim, Hybrid Trap, Complextro, Briddim, Tearout [Brostep], Trap [EDM] energetic, complex, futuristic, noisy, instrumental yeah definitely better. a lot more focused and an even bigger step forward in sound design. hes up there with skrillex and moody good and sophie no doubt. wish he just dropped all the full ones tho lol 3.5 | |
Space LacesVaultage 002 (2019) [DJ Mix]Bass House, Riddim, Moombahcore, Hybrid Trap, Briddim energetic, futuristic, complex, aggressive, sampling much of the same but the biggest difference is the improvement in his sound design. also sometimes too silly 3 | |
Space LacesVaultage 001 (2018) [DJ Mix]Bass House, Moombahcore, Synthwave, Riddim, Briddim energetic, epic, eclectic, aggressive, complex for no reason at all ive decided to listen to all of these. its got a handful of great drops but it suffers from kinda wonky transitions/sequencing and being a bit too unfocused. 3 | |
went with gf and frend. Carcass and Cannibal Corpse opened for them. missed about a song or two of Carcass' set but i dont really care. the only interesting section of their discography to me is their 80s goregrind, of which they played zero. the older dudes seemed to fucking love them - i guess im just not a death n roll guy. CC's set wasnt much better but they had better personality and i can at least groove to it more. theyre all really old which is funny. they had good personality and presence the singer was funny. a few good riffs and they were a bit sloppy but it works for their sound i think Shuggers set was obviously the highlight. much of the same set as the last time i saw them (still no chaospher 😢) but the key difference was LASERS!! felt like i was at edc that shitわ was so fucking cool. they also played bleed which is fire glad i got to see that live finally. | |
SquarepusherNTS Mix 22-06-19 (2019) [DJ Mix]instrumental, rhythmic, surreal, repetitive, sampling listened on the way. pretty fun stuff, especially the bookending sections. love his taste in breaks 3.5 | |
Sick of Silence / Frixion Fanatic / Bram WazigSOS 303 (2011) [EP]so boring. nothing worth remembering 2.5 | |
Cannibal CorpseThe Bleeding (1994)violence, heavy, aggressive, vulgar, death seeing them tn thought why not. bludgeoningly boring. 2.5 | |
Sematary & Ghost MountainThe Wagoner EP (2025) [EP]Horrorcore, Plugg, Cloud Rap, Emo Rap, Trap depressive, male vocalist, lethargic, nocturnal, sampling glad its on streaming. classic stuff - i hate myself one day... 3.5 | |
IxOxWxAxE / Bulbous UlcerImpossible Pathological Recreations (2022) [EP]first side good awesome kind of gorewall sounding second idc 3 | |
Blackhat (2015)e markedly different than the rest of Mann's "surveillance" trilogy; a distinct shift away from ultimatums - central to Blackhat is freedom. Mann understands the gravity of electronics. pulses. code. his CG sequences of data transfers and stock market sequencing and wire wars do a fantastic job at painting the otherworldy nature of the digital age: a world where one button press crashes economies, kills dozens, and alters the environment, the only way out is with duct tape and hardware. "Maybe we can no longer fight capitalism...but we might be able to escape it." building on themes explored in the other two films of this "trilogy", Mann finally fleshes out the surrogate family. it's a weirdly optimistic movie: picking up friends and allies along the way, people you know you can trust, people you care for. Mann still recognizes incompetence up the ladder: valiant efforts in the name of justice upheld by a chain of beuracratic decisions and legal bindings. no one at the top cares about anyone at the bottom, youre just numbers and words in a database to someone capabale of falling for key loggers. the swift reward for saving the day is treason and a lifetime of institutions. so glad i got to rewatch this with friend 4 | |
Venomous Urotoxic Asphyxiation of the Dying Flesh / Clogged Gastrostomy Tumour FluidVenomous Urotoxic Asphyxiation of the Dying Flesh / Clogged Gastrostomy Tumour Fluid (2025)really loving how prolific VUA is moving this year, glad they arent just a one off here and there kind of project, and their vision only gets further and further distilled with each release. my only gripe is that they keep doing splits with these kind of mid artists! sorry, but also very clearly CGTF is just not even close to the level VUA's working on here. but i mean its not bad... i guess.. just like are really still doing surgery interview narratives in the big 25 💔 3 | |
C*14C*14 (1996) [EP]very very very boring. nothing here is worth remembering. cant say its bad though it just doesnt do anything. also the youtube rips are so quiet, but thats not something i can really hold c14 accountable for 2.5 | |
Arzach#2 (1995) [EP]feels like more nothing. i appreciate the wide and dark feel of the first track, but neither of them move me in any particular way. 2.5 | |
Miami Vice (2006)in low light settings the aperature must open wider to receive more information, but because of this any minor disturbances become noticeably exaggerated, large sections engrossed in amplified noise and crunching fuzz. reality is a distortion: everyone is working an angle - feds, interceptors, double crossers, cheaters, spies - and the only way to solve a problem is to put a bullet in its head. but love is stronger than any job. prerequisite to Public Enemies' focus on romance and surrogate families, Miami Vice deconstructs the idea of a "partner" and puts a gun to its head (literally). self destruction (Crocket) and delusion (Tubbs); mirrored parables asking to choose between your heart or the job you have to do - your self worth comes from the ability to perform a task only you can succeed in. uncountably many important memorable moments. 4 | |
SpunkBlue (1995) [EP]gonna sift through all of acid orange's stuff cuz wainot. first track is whatever; sounds like someones first serious attempt and recording a techno track. its got charm. the second track however is the real takeaway, which is unfortunate since its the corrupted and unmastered side that didnt make it to the bandcamp reissue. super pounding energetic stuff, love it 3 | |
DisintegratorTarget Terminated (1992) [EP]Acid Techno, Acidcore, Hard Techno just. really boring acid stuff. its got a hardcore edge to it but it kind of goes nowhere so it cancels out and is just nothing 2.5 | |
DJ LeninЛенин В Горках (1998) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]thanks andrey pretty fun. not a big fan of the guitar-based tracks and theres some long stretches of just whatever goa but overall its a good lil mix 3 | |
GabeEurötek (1998) [DJ Mix]another alien today! wow! very boring at times, like autopilot trance tracks or something. i did recognize a sample in here that i also heard in a pegboard nerds song. 2.5 | |
Thee-OAlien Abduction (1997) [DJ Mix]science fiction lots of energy which is good. feel like it lacks on the A side tho 3 | |
SP 23Ekat Sgurd (1996) [EP]instrumental on this acid trip ive been itching to relisten to this guy and i just found out its on spotify for no reason at all lets goo. as long as you have this cranked to the max it works so well, perhaps thats why i didnt enjoy it so much my first go around. first track is just a solid exercise in weirdo acid stuff, but the second track is where this really takes off, begins with this super offputting triplet groove painted in a very dark sound pallet, and then it gets super energetic. classy stuff. the last track im still whatever on, but its fine. 3.5 | |
DJ BillyboolBlomstertid (2025) [Single]Happy Hardcore, Uplifting Trance party, energetic, spring, happy, warm glad to see he hasnt abandoned this project. its not as good as som jag but its pretty cool nonetheless. interesting structure, and i like how him and bladee sound here. synths cool but the drums i feel like could use more work. 3 | |
F.U.S.E.Substance Abuse / F.U.2 / Confusion (1991) [Single]hypnotic, atmospheric, drugs, instrumental, repetitive nothing super standout here but its good. got my head bobbin. first track best 3 | |
Brain 30Brain Train (2001) [Single]just 2 mega fuck bumping mixes. goes stupud. 1>2? 3.5 | |
Spiral TribeU Make Me Feel So Good (1992) [EP]lo-fi, repetitive some of the earliest spiral tribe. its pretty sloppy and not really the best thing ever but i cant deny its got soul. title track is the highlight 3 | |
The EarthwormNatural Glow (1993) [EP]rhythmic, repetitive, nocturnal, rain, dark in the gym chilling. first track is some peak longform acid, very dancing. love the dark deep atmosphere on the second. last one was cool kind of more chill 3.5 |
SP 23 / Unit MoebiusOut of the Blue (1993) [EP]instrumental enjoyed the first track. very energy. but everything else is just whatever. disappointed in moebius' side 3 | |
Acid Scout4° (1993) [Single]Acid Trance, Ambient Techno, IDM repetitive, ominous, mechanical, futuristic, instrumental god this is gorgeous. might honestly be a 4 if i keep revisiting. just perfect arpeggiating synths and amazing acid stuff - that last track though... untouchable. some deep vibrations and really tasteful shifts 3.5 fornow | |
DemonSlutPanic Attack (2000) [DJ Mix]Acid Techno, Hard Techno, Acidcore noisy, repetitive, lo-fi, rhythmic, raw fucking so good really dirty and noisy. cant stop moving. love how distorted some are 3.5 | |
SP 23This is Trance (1994) [EP]really good. "This Is Trance" is just ridiculous. they usually disappoint but not this time 3.5 | |
DRCIn Between Worlds (1996) [DJ Mix]mechanical, instrumental, rhythmic, mysterious, psychedelic good mix, but theres something missing and i cant quite put my finger on it... fun b side 3 | |
Acid ScoutBalance (1994) [Single]Hard Trance, Acid House, Ambient Dub hypnotic, mechanical, energetic, rhythmic, instrumental first track is the gold standard of techno. beautiful stuff. second is regular acid. third is very cool ambient microtonal stuff 3.5 | |
Caustic WindowJoyrex J4 EP (1992) [EP]Breakbeat Hardcore, Ambient Techno rhythmic, instrumental, energetic, cold, minimalistic something about this just doesnt do it for me. richards skill carries these very whatever tracks 3 | |
CurleyCurley [DJ Mix]Acid Techno, Acidcore, Freetekno instrumental, repetitive, dark, psychedelic, energetic was really loving this but the second side isnt nearly as exciting as the first. sigh 3 | |
DJ Лена Попова [DJ Lena Popova]Филателия (1997) [DJ Mix]a lot more chill than genocide. its fine 3 | |
Public Enemies (2009)if you still werent convinced that mann hates the government here you go. "i have never arrested anybody," a bereau founded on flaky justifications that exists just to continue to criminalize and punish. they arent even good at what they do. also a movie grappling with evolution and the constant encroaching threat of becoming useless because no one needs you for the only job youre good at anymore. theres a super uncomfortable shift in atmosphere after Dillinger talks with the men in the call room, and markedly this begins the very long losing streak that continues up until the final frames. the last 10 minutes were pure gold filmmaking. had my heart pounding, and the editing during Dillinger's movie is really impactful. some of mann's best visuals (the whole movie in general really). 3.5 | |
Venetian SnaresShitfuckers!!! (2001) [EP]Industrial Hardcore, Cybergrind noisy, drugs, dark, party, aggressive grind drug and good jungle were amazing. the rest are kind of what you might expect. fun listen 3 | |
Knife PartyMixmag Mix - 'Clever Title Like Deadmau5 Would Use' Mix (2012) [DJ Mix]party, energetic, futuristic highlights an important blind spot of the Shambhala mixes and reminds me why KP were my fav growing up. very concise and effective mix, lots of cool 'mashup' ideas in here too, these guys are pretty skilled djs. 3.5 | |
DJ Лена Попова [DJ Lena Popova]Генацид (1996) [DJ Mix]wow. im only now realizing (somehow) how truly deep acid techno is intertwined with freetekno. perhaps this is the beginning of my acid journey. very fun, lots of great tracks in here. 3.5 | |
Hans KrüsiEX HK. (2008)Sound Collage, Musique concrète, Tape Music Field Recordings, Nature Recordings, Insect Sounds mysterious, surreal, lo-fi, nature, avant-garde feels a bit like a sublime frequencies record at times. the insect sounds added a very unique later to all of this. 3 | |
BucketheadlandHold Me Forever (In Memory of My Mom Nancy York Carroll) (2014)Progressive Rock, Progressive Metal instrumental, progressive, melancholic, passionate, energetic nice way to start the day. idk just not hella my cup of tea but the last track is pretty fuckin ridiculous. def lots of emotion 3 | |
Kimi (2022)bro came over we chilled it. beyond boring. disgusted at the review calling it "gen Z's Blow Out". weak form surface level and its just plain ugly! probably shouldve just watched oceans eleven 2.5 | |
TunnelsDemo (2025) [EP]3 | |
Venetian SnaresAffectionate (2012) [EP]mellow, surreal, lesbian, melancholic, playful really quite boring. probably fun af if you really love acid 2.5 | |
Ken CarsonMore Chaos (2025)Industrial Hip Hop, Pop Rap, Chicago Drill, Terror Plugg noisy, chaotic, infernal, violence, drugs sorry, come and sue me but it was pretty fun! def not on par with AGC (what is tho) but still has its moments. leans even harder into the noisier rage beats, dug all the beat switches, and i appreciate kens ability to keep a project this long this consistent. hardly feels like an hour tbh 3.5 | |
Pencil Lead SyringeLost in a Decaying Structure (2019) [EP]Mathcore, Deathcore, Deathgrind, Ambient technical, aggressive still a far cry from their original sound but better than that last ep i heard. another failed attempt at slambient also. productions good 3 | |

BiolichOmniversal Descent Upon Lower Planes of Conventional Logic (1997) [EP]Avant-Garde Metal, Technical Death Metal, Dissonant Death Metal lo-fi, apocalyptic, surreal, raw, complex just super weirdo. these riffs just couldnt exist anywhere else. feel like they just barely missed the dripping route. i should go thru the rest of their cog 3 | |

Embrionic DeathRegurgitate the Dead (1992) [Additional release]heavy, dark, disturbing, death, dissonant what sets this apart for me is its atmosphere. very dark; super evil solo in the first or second track 3 | |

VVUPAin't Nobody (2024) [Single]Kawaii Future Bass, Atlanta Bass, Contemporary R&B female vocalist, party, playful, energetic, bouncy both tracks are very cute and very fun. 3.5 | |
ExcisionShambhala Mix 2015 (2015) [DJ Mix]Electro House, Drumstep, Trap [EDM], Riddim we're reaching levels of coworker we have never seen before nah but really ive been on the dj mindset recently and relistened to 2014s mix, got me curious about this one since i hadnt ever heard it even tho 2013 and 2014 were some of my fav releases as a kid. lots of recognizable tracks if you were involved in this sphere or heard any of the previous mixes, but he does a good job keeping the pool pretty diverse and explorable once again. cant get over how boring the intro is compared to the other two ive heard, and on the real a lot of this is coworker as fuck (peanut butter jelly time dubstep remix is just ridiculous, and we seriously need to stop giving Messinian money). still its fun and theres some drops sprinkled throughout that im gonna have to steal for sure. 3 | |
Torture KryptRotted Remnants (1995) [EP]Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal heavy, vulgar, dark, hateful, death yea its good. more of the same non noteworthy but very fun slam 3 | |
CrucifixBarriers (1992) [Additional release]Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal Technical Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal felt longer than it says. decent intersection of standard death metal with (of the time) bludgeoning brutal death metal 3 | |

TonBlind Follower (1997) [Additional release]yes! finally! the only thing that can truly save us in times like these where slamslop is the standard: trve american patriot brvtality! lot of heart in these recordings: you can almost feel the garage sweat rolling down your forehead! nonstop killer riffs, really great songwriting, and that oldschool mix is just unbeatable in this format. very fucking killer 3.5 | |

TrichomoniasisEP (2018) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal, Mathcore heavy, dissonant, raw, technical, chaotic yeah doesnt compare at all with everything after it but its still worth checking out for the trichpricks. pretty creative in terms of slam, some weird nifty guitar ideas too. 3 | |
RegurgitationClitoraldectomy (2011) [EP]vulgar, violence, aggressive, male vocalist, sexual holy fuck! this is awesome! pummeling riffs, great drums too. dont care for suffocation but the cover sounds good anyway 3.5 | |
IncarrionInto the Exposed Abyss (2002) [EP]Technical Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal lo-fi, heavy, raw, complex, dark just like a whirlwind of parts and ideas that make no sense together. headache production 2.5 | |
Pencil Lead SyringePencil Lead Syringe (2012) [EP]Technical Death Metal, Mathcore, Deathcore, Slam Death Metal what happened? relistening to their debut and it sounds so much clearer and precise - this is quite sloppy! still its manic and inventive, but damn... 3 | |
The Insider (1999)the mannathon continues. as per usual pacino steals the show but major hats off to crowe for his very solemn and intimidating work here. if theres anything Mann understands its the working class american. what it means to answer to an unending chain of higher ups, to be the singular pillar of a family you love and to cherish the autonomy you think you have. the evil Wigand encounters is never actually given any real screen time - we see lawyers yes but its all just word of mouth and bureaucracy: letters and emails and court orders and agreements. in spite of the bustling underbelly of american capital culture and Mann's gritty paranoid texturization, its all very kafkaesque and insurmountable. im not going to sit here and write about good or bad people - youll have to wait for fuckcomments entry if you want any of that - but it does boil down to, in its purest form, manipulators manipulating manipulators. its a circular ladder and we're all fucking over the guy behind us so we can keep going forward. of note were the beach scenes and Crowe's final few hotel scenes, as well as any argument between Pacino and his CBS coworkers. 3.5 | |
YENAˣ‿ˣ (SMiLEY) (2022) [EP]party, female vocalist, happy, uplifting, energetic certainly potential but its regular kslop. 2.5 | |
Ali (2001)trekked over to bros house and we chilled this together. massive vision culminating in a masterclass on filmmaking - lots of love, grit and detail in every crevice here. its been talked to death but i cant stress how important the opening 30 minutes are. during the fight the entire crowd is drowned in pure blackness - the stadium ceiling lights extending gridlike out into the universal horizon, and theres nothing but two fighters and a camera in the ring. beautiful how mann perfectly translates Malcom and Ali's friendship: two men of abnormal strengths with backbones, love and a taste of freedom staring down the proverbial barrels their whole lives; Ali absorbs the posthumous Malcom and his purpose - you will die but i will live for you and i will carry you everywhere i walk. i think it struggles a bit narratively in the last third, but it doesnt really matter. the last fight scene makes up for it. 3.5 | |

The DeepMake Up (2025) [Single]K-Pop, Garage House, Dance-Pop Electro House, 2-Step, Deep Tech energetic, love, party, female vocalist, rhythmic finally got my car back from the shop. s'chill. love the chords. starting to realize her voice is a bit weird in a negative way 3 | |
CelerIt Would Be Giving Up (2020)calm, repetitive, ethereal, meditative, atmospheric the first three loops just kinda pass me by, im not so crazy about when his stuff is very thrush and emphatic, but the last one is pure bliss 3 | |
Happy FlowersMaking the Bunny Pay (1987) [Compilation]humorous, dissonant, noisy, childhood, angry very Normal No Wave sound. super contrived - essentially just grown men larping as Children But They Are Fucked Up. heh, what if i was like a kid... but i killed my frickin mom... and my toys were like... evil... fuck yes... 2.5 | |
EmmureSurrounded by Nothing (2004) [Additional release]male vocalist, heavy, raw, aggressive, angry lovely. very very raw and aggressive. way too long for its own good, if this was trimmed down to its best tracks itd be an easy 3.5. love the rare clean vocals, theyre done really tastefully here 3 | |
ヘンリー川原 [Henry Kawahara]Sound LSD / Out of Body Experience 幽体離脱体験 (1992)hypnotic, psychedelic, improvisation, complex, avant-garde didnt really feel anything but i guess its interesting. great cover 2.5 | |
YvesLOOP (2024) [EP]2-Step, Contemporary R&B, Folk Pop, Pop Rock, Dance-Pop, Future House, Neo-Soul love, mellow, sentimental, female vocalist, romantic promising start but the feature is so fucking bad and the last track is beyond corn. maybe ill check her other 2.5 | |
Vaginal Mustard¡Mis pantalones están en la maquina expendedora! (2014)Technical Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal humorous, sexual, technical so stupid. which is a shame because the tech parts are actually kind of cool. stop sampling for so long. goes in the beach gore list tho 2.5 | |

LarvaPentatomidae nezara smaragdus (2017) [EP]bug 2.5 | |
Collateral (2004)surprisingly more meditative and wobbly than i was expecting. mann does a fantastic job of building this world you want to explore forever and drawing out these deceptively deep and complex characters. cruise and foxx have amazing chemistry, and i cant get over how great this is shot. "and i love when the lights go out in jada's building and theres shots where you cant see anything except the distant lights from the city vaguely outlining pillars and silhouettes" 3.5 | |
Pharmakon / Deterge.-- .- -. - (2011) [EP]pharms side is VIOLENT and deterges side is VIOLENT 3.5 MUST HEAR! | |

CelerTo an Extent; 卡拉OK; L, S, & X (2020) [Additional release]warm, soothing, calm, minimalistic, peaceful very lovely. i dig how the second track acts as a kind of epilogue 3.5 | |
여자친구 [GFRIEND]回:Walpurgis Night (2020)Contemporary R&B, Pop Rock, Synthpop, Nu-Disco, Electropop female vocalist, melodic, nocturnal, uplifting, energetic its a faustus reference, how could i not... but actuallg so boring. feels like so many times they get soo close to securing a great pop song but somehow always fumble the ball. bleh 2.5 | |

Jim O'RourkeInsignificance (2001)Alt-Country, Chamber Pop, Indie Folk misanthropic, lush, sarcastic, lonely, male vocalist i was supposed to listen to this in february on my ski trip, but i never got in the right mood for it. instrumentally a lot less exciting than its sister lp but much of the same melancholic themes and attitudes carry over nicely. not sure how much i loved the country 3 | |
BorbetomagusSnuff Jazz (1989)chaotic, noisy, improvisation, atonal, instrumental fuckcomments actually recommended this to me during the phanaerozoic period, guess it took me a little bit longer than normal to get to it! first track is kind of what i expected but more sparse at first. very sax abuse. second track steals the show - sounds so weird alien 3 | |
Drop the LimeStep It Up (2005) [EP]oh yeah totally forgot to mention i played a show last night: my first live dj set! i actually duo'd with my close friend and it was super fun. we played last on a stacked cast of Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique, nexttojackiekennedy and 3 other damn djs. even though the crowd was pretty thinned out by the time we got rolling they were loyal and exciting. unfortunately we accidentally cut our power twice but everyone still had fun and it was a great low stakes learning experience. i hope i can play with her again soon anyway this is good and i bring allat up because this was kind of dj inspiring in some ways. just some cool sections here that would make for exciting transitions or whatever. cant say i loved the whole too much but its still nice 3 | |

Presence (2024)been mulling over this one for some time now, and im still not entirely sure how i want to write about it. soderbergh is in his fucking bag, operating with pure feeling and style. kind of annoying how bogged down this is by "INVENTIVE HORROR!" and "HAUNTED HOUSE!" promo/reception its been getting. some really soft moments, some really sour curdling ones too. i know one guy doesnt agree with me, but i see it as a coming of age film in a way. also reminded me a lot of shyamalan, the way soderbergh props up american family dynamics and peels back the flesh. holy ending 4 | |
28 Weeks Later (2007)not nearly as good as the original, but still an entertaining watch. introduces the "cure" but then does like nothjng with it... so weird. ig itll come into play this summer. hard to feel either which way about this, just kind of exists. feels analogous to Predators for this series (but not nearly as stylish). also american savior movie lol 2.5 | |
28 Days Later (2002)gf was in a zombie mood and the new one comes out this year so we started this. on rewatch i def appreciate it a lot more. very inspiring camerawork - really heartfelt and creative stuff - and the editing is really nice too. it starts to get super uninteresting around the military compound section (and all the misogyny just makes it even more of a slog). cillian's he/him lesbian cut was so fucked up in this 3 |

SkrillexF*ck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!! <3 (2025)playful, energetic, party, humorous, rhythmic the 2020s have been very important for skrillex's career, seeing both a revival and a reappraisal of his sound. while his electro upbringings were largely overlooked, and his innovations of festival edm were sorely misunderstood by more sophisticated audiences, post-Show Tracks sonny has garnered a lot of positive reception this decade. branching out to many different areas of electronic music, collaborating with a wide array of artists (Dylan Brady, Four Tet, PinkPantheress, Bladee, and Porter Robinson, just to name a few...), and pushing his already impeccable production and dj-ing abilities even further has helped reignite the mainstream and underground's respect for his work. Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, Bangarang and Recess have all seen massively positive rating trends since 2019 and they continue to go up. despite the ambivalent responses , the simple fact that he was able to drop two full lengths in 2023 (Quest for Fire and Don't Get Too Close) is worth major respect points. while i myself am not really a big fan of either, i have to admit that its impossible to ignore the influence and role they will play for mainstream electronic music moving forward. its clear that skrillex is operating on a whole other level of prolificity, and FUS signals that he has no plans to stop. FUS throws everything at the wall and wastes no time. rivaling the ambitious double rollout of 2023's Quest... and Close..., FUS boasts no lead singles, very little pre-promo, and is, plainly, a continuous mix of snippets. while a couple of tracks on here (namely Ultra Intro and San Diego VIP) have had their full versions leaked and floating around for some time now, the rest are completely new tracks (with the exception of Voltage, which has been reworked here, but was originally made around 2012). there is also a lot of retrospection here. dedicated skrillex fans will recognize the Summit vocals, Leaving EP sample, and previously mentioned leaked tracks. on top of this, skrillex employs DJ Smokey's tongue-in-cheek callouts (perhaps the only downfall of this album (i personally think they ruin the longevity of it, even if they are funny)), and theres a lot of callbacks to older tracks/styles. Fricky VIP/Ultra Intro, for instance, reuse the LH4L from Fuji Opener, and tracks like Hold On, Mosquitotouille and DNB Ting hark back to the mid 2010s scene that sonny helped shape. Baby Royal also samples a vocal line from Sicko Mode, which skrillex remixed in 2018. all of this culminates in a simultaneously surprising, exciting, reflective and endearing mix of influences and inspirations. with a strong love for the bass music culture that he helped develop, an honest sense of humor and the songwriting sincerity he has been showcasing since he started his career, FUS comes off as a heartwarming rose-tinted love letter to all of edm, and a promising peak into the second half of this decade's festival scene. 4 | |

Le temps du loup [Time of the Wolf] (2003)opens bravely and sets up a lovely world that is brimming with potential and then.,.. haneke doesnt really do much with it. "ends up feeling like unengaging surface-level social commentary" 2.5 | |
American Dreams (Lost and Found) (1984)chill stuff. combines pop culture, hobbies/sport and politics into a very straightforward collage. i found the format to be just a bit ineffective for me though. feels like information overload, you never get a whole picture of anything, but maybe thats the point. na | |

Before Days of HumanityOn the Origin of Water (2022) [EP]heavy, prehistory, rhythmic despite the unique and maybe cool theme this just does fuckin nothing. its funny because last days of humanity isnt even apocalypse themed, so all the humanity themed bands are just silly to me. 2.5 | |

Vacant MoleyThe Programmed Obsolescence of Your Kind (2025)Slam Death Metal, Avant-Garde Metal Technical Death Metal, Cybergrind heavy, manic, technical, avant-garde, male vocalist starts off as some pretty awesome jenovavirus worship but falls apart when they start to do all this genrecore nonsense that just doesnt sound all that nice. maybe it needs a relisten later according to user oneandtwoandthreeBOOM, i suppose i have to throw in the slam towel forever now 3 | |
MurdermanBody Disposal Expert (2020) [EP]heavy, homicide, disturbing, noisy, male vocalist going through this ping snare iceberg list so expect some ping in the coming entries this was pretty damn awesome. perfect mesh of the two genres, really intense and violent. great vocals. immaculate ping. 3.5 | |

Disfiguring the GoddessSooth (2020) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal Ambient, Electronic, Deathcore heavy, surreal, rhythmic just kidding. its slam saturday a day early. really cool honestly, the electronic ambient gives a really unique and weird vibe to the whole thing (erhereal slam is back?!) and their sense of groove is really odd. loved it 3.5 | |
Spiral TribeSound of Teknival (1996) [Compilation]its freetekno friday once again everyone. controversy aside, its a decent mix, with a few tracks i even recognized! but a lot of the first third was kind of wotever. 3 | |
The 15:17 to Paris (2018)morning watch. did laundry. looks nice, good editing. i like the very fine tuned portaut of american culture eastwood and co paint with the childhood flashbacks. feels kind of hyperlink the way it sets up the train scene lol. the ending cut to real news footage is genius 3 | |

Axolotl / Infinity WindowAxolotl / Infinity Window (2008)cooling off after the fucking evil test. probably made a 62 axolotl side was so boring 💔 but the second track dips into crazy wall vibes they should have just done that forever infinity window side unmemorable 2.5 | |
ハタユウスケ [Yusuke Hata]みにくいモジカの子 (Minikui mojika no ko) (2018)noisy kind of cool concept for an eronovel ost. any track with vocals is great. i like how often it dips into noise. very mbv at times tho 3 | |
Anorexic Beauty QueenTogether You and I Soar to the Moon (2004)lovely and cute. way more acoustic than i expected (i actually thought it was gonna be like power electronics when i first saved it lol). you never truly get used to his vocals, but hes got some dope screams that he does far too little. a handful of standout bits of instrumentation and some nice choruses make this worth it 3 | |
Life NeglectedBleeding Hope (2005) [Additional release]raw, dark, melancholic, suicide, male vocalist i like the intro. still not crazy about ds vocals but theres a good atmosphere 3 | |
Nokturnal MortumLunar Poetry (1996)Symphonic Black Metal, Melodic Black Metal, Pagan Black Metal Pagan Black Metal, Dungeon Synth pagan, winter, nocturnal, forest, melodic a side is fine. good sense of melodies and its pretty intense. something happens on the b side that i cant quite grasp... but it all goes to shitわ for a majority of it. very odd. cold vibes 3 | |
Intervalle Bizzare / MalignancyUnexpected Awakening of Impassive Mass / Frailty of the Human Condition (2002)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal i suppose malignancy does clear here but not by much, both artists do a fine job. the coolest bit to me though was IB's last track, a weird droning synth thing comes in that totally caught me off guard - this is the last place we thought we'd find funeral slam! 3 | |
HeadDropHeadDrop (2002) [EP]Groove Metal, Slam Death Metal, Brutal Death Metal heavy, aggressive, rhythmic, raw, tribal super exciting stuff, really locked in and singular. love the bdm parts, they implement them so well. very aggressive and intense. gotta keep spinning 3.5 | |

Atrax MorgueI'm Infected (2008) [Single]bwowwww little droning evile idrc tho 2.5 | |
Barn SourOne Trick Pony (2022)Dark Ambient, Field Recordings, Sound Poetry lo-fi, cryptic, surreal, disturbing, ominous i guess i just dont get the hype. it was pretty interesting, but i dont know if it feels super unique. the beginning reminded me of some dave phillips, but a bit sparser and more atmospheric. the highlight for me was the end, with those chilling screams over the dark ambient piece. really uncomfortable... 3 | |

me fuckcomments and my lil bro went to see nett and xav yesterday. xavs set was chill. he clearly had more fun at floating world when there was more of his buddies on stage, he started off a bit awkward (and his mic was soo loud it was crazy 😭) but he found a good groove eventually. his dancing is nuts. i also realized that the patchmade synth is in like 10 different songs of his. its funny i think dj ren just picks and chooses what songs to play and xav sings along, at some point he asked "what song is next" lol nett was dope. fuckcomments didnt like it but i thought the "tiktok" intros and outros to songs were kind of nice. he played a good amount of new and old. hes very photogenic. his new hair is chill. so many shirtless dudes it was gross as fuck. i loved that the show ended before 12 that was really sick honestly | |
CurleyThe Esoteric EP (1995) [EP]heavy, rhythmic, repetitive, nocturnal, party ending the day with some freetek. first disc is pretty solid, a more conventional but super energetic A side, and a really off kilter tempo changing B side. cool, but then the C side kind of exists and drags the whole thing down by just being boring? the D tracks just barely make up for it but not by much, neither are convincing enough on their own. 3 | |

Playboi CartiMUSIC (2025)Hardcore Hip Hop, Rage, Pop Rap, Cloud Rap, Experimental Hip Hop drugs, male vocalist, repetitive, hedonism, boastful its fine. im coming around to his vocals, they sound pretty good here. i wish it was just the rage tracks, the normal trap songs just kind of fly by me. opm baby was great, prob my fav. i like crush too lol 3 | |
Feed MeFeed Me's Escape From Electric Mountain (2012) [EP]Drumstep, Moombahcore, Progressive House energetic, party, rhythmic randomly remembered this the other day and saved it. i used to listen to whiskers and headshot a lot as a kid, and those are still the best tracks here. the others feel like kind of weak electro with brostep edge kind of songs, and theres a prog hau5 track in there for good measure too. meh. 2.5 | |
Moody GoodMoody Good (2014)UK Bass, Future Garage, Alternative R&B, Brostep, Trip Hop, Post-Dubstep, Grime urban, eclectic, nocturnal, female vocalist, cold cleaning music. kind of glad he didnt stick with this kind of sound.. its cool ig and theres probably lots of really interesting sound design things happening but its super boring. i thought all of the features felt either awkward or lifeless. 2.5 | |
13 Lakes (2004)its fucking beer and movie saturday with the friends so we all got in our comfiest clothes, sat around the coffee table, ordered two dominos pizzas and cracked open some dude-bro-sis-friend cans of coke, sat back and watched thirteen mother fucking lakes by the one and only J.B. he gets a lot of variation in these shots, multiple thpes of climates and biomes. a couple of scenes feel oceanic; a real testament to the incredible scale of lakes from the human perspective. really curious human juxtapositions as well - jet skis, a yacht, hunting gunshots, the off screen railroad - a lot of his shots feel 3d, in the way that they force you to construct the rest of their worlds through your limited senses, to build your own interactive movie within your head. fascinating stuff. 3.5 | |
青葉市子 [Ichiko Aoba]Luminescent Creatures (2025)Singer-Songwriter, Chamber Folk New Age, Ambient, Nature Recordings soft, ethereal, peaceful, female vocalist, atmospheric in a similar vein to elliott smith, i also prefer her without all the extra gizmos and gadgets. its fine stuff but its just not what i like to hear from her. comfy i suppose. no individual songs stand out... 3 | |
YHWH Nailgun45 Pounds (2025)Industrial Rock, Math Rock, Noise Rock, Post-Punk, Art Punk rhythmic, manic, raw, technical, uncommon time signatures its interesting and theres lots of cool melodic and auxiliary percussive things happening but nothing majorly stood out to me on first listen. maybe i can give it another go later. 3 | |
LTJ BukemProducer 01 (2000) [Compilation]Downtempo, Nu Jazz, Jazzstep, Jungle futuristic, mellow, space, atmospheric, rhythmic really had my ass with those first three boring as fuck tracks but everything after is kino breaks. i see why hes the goat yall. 3.5 | |
MFGNew Kind of World (1997)repetitive, surreal, sampling, nocturnal, party lovely. sometimes a very dark atmosphere that i wish it tapped more into. 3 | |
Moody GoodGoofball EP: Repackaged (2020) [EP]been revisiting the og ep a bit lately and realized i still hadnt heard this. its good, some cool remixes with some stank facing but none of these are better than their originals (maybe anti acid?) 3 | |
Harold Budd, Elizabeth Fraser, Robin Guthrie & Simon RaymondeThe Moon and the Melodies (1986)Ambient, Dream Pop, Ethereal Wave New Age, Ethereal Wave, Post-Rock ethereal, atmospheric, mysterious, lush, female vocalist very nice way to start the day. soothing healing stuff. i wasnt expecting it to be like half ambient improv stuff which was cool. the regular songs are some of their best. the first <3 3.5 | |
EyrieAll in All (2022) [Compilation]noisy, aggressive, manic, energetic, dissonant pretty awesome. the demo is chill its like incomprehensible cuz mixing and then the album section is mixed really perfectly for this stuff. violence indeed 3.5 | |
Elliott SmithXO (1998)Chamber Pop, Indie Folk, Indie Rock bittersweet, melancholic, melodic, male vocalist, alienation honestly i really only like him when its just him and his guitar. i think all the bells and whistles here are nifty but they kind of take away from what i rly love about his music. still quite a few decent tracks but i doubt ill be thinking ab this too much after today 3 | |
4jayPrynxe of the Night (2019) [Mixtape]Experimental Hip Hop, Trap, Sigilkore male vocalist, infernal, surreal, nocturnal, deadpan boring whatever felt like background noise. 2.5 | |
PenfoldAmateurs and Professionals (1998)melancholic, passionate, male vocalist, longing, melodic probably some of the best emo instrumentals ever but i rly cant with the lyrics, especially with how upfront the vocals are. its just cheesy to me im sorry. the last track is pretty good though 3 | |
AprxelTapetumlucidum<3 (2023)Alternative R&B, Neo-Psychedelia, Art Pop Glitch, Epic Collage, Hypnagogic Pop, PluggnB, Wave, Glitch Pop, Trap Soul female vocalist, sampling, chaotic, hypnotic, eclectic handful of really great tracks and a lot of potential. the entire middle stretch gets kinda boring for me, but theres lots of good ideas. i may bump if i revisit 3 | |
Told Not to WorryHands in the Air! (2025)aggressive, female vocalist, male vocalist, protest, noisy a few moots didnt like this and im not sure why. its fun. vocals are almost some chicken 3 | |
BalmoraWith Thorns of Glass and Petals of Grief (2023) [EP]Melodic Metalcore, Melodic Death Metal epic, heavy, aggressive, energetic, melodic idr get the hype. its fine core though. i think i didnt like the vocals so much 3 | |
Stoort NeerMÖRRINJÖ (2020) [EP]Progressive Metal, Djent, Thall surreal, melancholic, progressive, energetic, rhythmic yeah it sohnds fine but eh the only instrumental djent ive found i enjoy is vildhjarta 2.5 | |
LeaFLeaf Music 2011~2024 (Short Version) (2024) [Compilation]yeah lots of love really really fun most of the time and very unique sound i think. sometimes its really silly like clown silly which is ... ok but mostly its just exciting. i actually hadnt heard a majority of these before now, just the osu ones. Ka is great 3.5 | |
Sleeping With SirensWith Ears to See, and Eyes to Hear (2010)Swancore, Mall Screamo, Melodic Metalcore androgynous vocals, male vocalist, energetic, melodic, love this mf is female vocals as fuck could do without the deathcore sounding bits. 3 | |
Mount EerieNow Only (2018)death, love, introspective, melancholic, male vocalist not sure where to start. obviously touching, lyrically. you gotta be inhuman not to feel anything, especially with how plainly literal a lot of this is. its always wonderful when the drums come in. the skrillex name drop was crazy. thanks for the rec fuckcomments 3.5 | |
The ShaggsPhilosophy of the World (1969)Beat, Girl Group, Experimental Rock dissonant, female vocalist, chaotic, uncommon time signatures, bittersweet its cute. not nearly as "abrasive" or "insane" as many video essays had led me to believe when i was a kid. some interesting ideas. i like some themes too 3 | |
Allan...About Five Seconds (1999)Atmospheric Sludge Metal, Post-Hardcore, Avant-Garde Metal heavy, dark, dissonant, aggressive, male vocalist dont let the 3* fool you, this might be a masterpiece in its own right. really unique blend of genres, very singular in its vision and execution. im not sure how much im going to think about this from now on, but i can see the score being bumped if i come back enough. my gf might like this, so maybe if she plays it enough for me. 3 |
xaviersobasedWith B4 With (2022) [EP]male vocalist why is no one is talking about how fleshed out the withverse is last track was dope overall fine 3 | |
C BoogieEmo Chao Bankroll Posse (2015) [EP]Pop Rap, Chicago Drill, Experimental Hip Hop, Tread drugs, boastful, sexual, lethargic, male vocalist a bit repetitive and kinda bland especially in the middle but its still fun and silly. i like the cover 3 | |
Quarantine (2008)a bit less focused and a lot less effective than the original. also the fucking cameraman... why are you zooming in so much... just doesnt even make sense sometimes. ending was also not as good as the og. but its meme 2.5 | |
UnbrokenLife. Love. Regret. (1994)technical, energetic, heavy, depressive, lonely not awful. i dont like his vocals, the drums felt terribly simple too, but they know how to write songs and the riffs are top notch. last track is pretty cool 3 | |
WispPandora (2024) [EP]female vocalist, cold, depressive, longing, ethereal its good. good atmosphere and consistent. kikd of mixed like shitわ but its fricking poo gays man 🖕its supposed to be 3 | |
march 20 another day of nice weather. it was actualy chilly a bit too. the wind wssnt so bad which was great, its kind of been ruining just being outside these past few days now. i tried a new monster flavor today that i really liked (ultra blue hawaiian) and spent a few hours studying. its heen a productive and relaxing day. we got mexican before my second class too, very yummy... | |
Minecraft MixMinecraft Mix (2013)noisy, repetitive, cryptic, video games, aleatory lol. not much to say. funny concept 2.5 | |
CarnifexCarnifex (2006) [EP]Melodic Death Metal, Groove Metal heavy, raw, melodic, angry eh. probably the last carnifex i'll ever listen to. its nothing terrible just very boring bland derivative. cover is so weird 2.5 | |
VannaThe Search Party Never Came (2006) [EP]Metalcore, Mall Screamo, Post-Hardcore heavy, cryptic, anxious, melancholic, aggressive more girlfriend rec mixing is odd and vocals sound kinda weird but its not bad. listened otw to uni and then did good on an exam i think 3 | |
XoArKHn1 (2022)god took over 3 years to sit down and actually listen through all of it but i finally did over the past few days. i regret not doing it sooner! this is one of the most entertaining and exciting wall releases ever - basically the perfect longform noise piece. way more dynamic and progressive than i expected (i would maybe explain why, but ill leave that up to the other listeners 😉). its definitely very digital but xoark is still able to get a lot of satisfying movement out of the limitations. rly one of the awesomest listening experiences ever. weirdly super violent at times 4 | |
athousandangelsandsevenathousandangelsandseven (2025) [EP]female vocalist, rhythmic, raw, aggressive, heavy stole from greentops scrobbles. its very close to being chicken but theres just something... off... about the vocals. idk... 3 | |
ShinerThe Egg (2001)Post-Hardcore, Alternative Rock anxious, energetic, melodic, passionate, melancholic thanks for the rec waterplaster 2.5 | |
DissectionStorm of the Light's Bane (1995)cold, melodic, winter, dark, sombre its fun. drumming is pretty good. metal 🤘 lots of energy i can honestly totally see why bolded 3 | |
Annotations of an AutopsyWelcome to Sludge City (2007) [EP]Slam Death Metal, Melodic Metalcore, Melodic Death Metal, Technical Death Metal heavy, rhythmic, male vocalist, violence, aggressive boring. mix felt weird. didnt like vocals 2.5 | |
SIGNALtheESCAPEAll That You Deserve (2008)gf suggested this to me a while ago. sounds p much exactly what youd expect, but the vocals carry pretty well. could be better but it at least wasnt boring 3 | |
Danny L HarleHarlecore (2021)Euro Trance, UK Hardcore, Bubblegum Bass, Jumpstyle, New Age playful, energetic, party, female vocalist, happy weighed down by the mc boing tracks and the ambient tracks. also the concept is just really gay lol. the dj danny ones were usually good. a bit too long 2.5 | |
STAYCS (2025) [Single]Dance-Pop, K-Pop, Contemporary R&B boastful, rebellious, melodic, female vocalist, rhythmic every track is either kind of annoying or just boring. they fell off so hard 2.5 | |
Venetian SnaresDrums (2025) [Single]Drill and Bass, Acid Breaks, Acid Techno uncommon time signatures, rhythmic, microtonal, quirky, sampling cool. idm acid stuff in the vsnares style. if youre familiar with his total discog this wont be anything groundbreaking but its nice to see he still has some interest in making new music. good use of breaks throughout this 3 | |
NMIXXFe3O4: FORWARD (2025) [EP]K-Pop, Contemporary R&B, Alt-Pop, Electronic Pop Rap, Alternative R&B, Trap [EDM] eclectic, progressive, female vocalist, boastful, energetic might as well right. the fact that its bolded is just ridiculous. i know it wont be for long but cmon yall we cannot be that starved. its definitely the most consistent fe3o4 so far but with the least amount of highlights. bits and pieces of every song were good but on the whole it felt super forgettable. ocean was njce though 2.5 | |
Drrty PharmsD℞℞TY'$ PHA℞MA¢Y (2012)another close friend of mine (who i will doxx in a future entry) recommended me this. its actually pretty good in a few spots. its super amateur just kind of messing around - very low effort vocal performances - but on the instrumentals its honestly really charming. i think if it was just those this'd be a higher score 3 | |
JohnsMating Calls (2018) [EP]hedonism, apathetic, sensual, rhythmic, longing a close friend of mine (that i wont name here for privacy reasons) really likes this album and suggested i check it out. i cant say i feel the same; i dont think its bad but i just dont really see the appeal. i suppose its smooth and theres a weird vulnerability here that kind of shines through the hypersexual lyricism. the instrumentals felt bland to me but i think they do paint a very soft and tender atmosphere. i never realized how linked up wolfe and delcada were 2.5 | |
xaviersobasedAxajwjn 124643 Jahsnbje (2020) [EP]male vocalist neither track is super memorable but the titles are pretty funny 3 | |
xaviersobasedStash Muzik Tha EP (2023) [EP]vulgar, rhythmic, sexual, drugs, eclectic highkey my second or third fav xav project. majorly consistent, no skips no dull tracks, lots of great memorable beats and his charisma really shines here. super succinct; perfect blend of rap xav and experimental xav. 3.5 for now | |
xaviersobasedU Ain't Gettin Saved tha EP (2024) [EP]male vocalist, lethargic, rhythmic, sampling, atmospheric gym both tracks were great but fake check was my fav. really really solid two fer 3.5 | |
Thirteen Lives (2022)been meaning to watch for so long. its a really bwautiful story so i was pretty excited to see how they play it out. looks really good and was definitely very tense. you get a real good sense for how (unfortunately) beurocratic things like this are, kind of reminded me of shin godzilla in that way. lol. i wish it was even heavier on the actual diving bits, theres lots of understandable time skips but its just insane that the entire dive round trip is 10 fuckin hours. no wonder it was a logistical nightmare. loved viggo and joel in this; really heartwarming ending 3.5 | |
NettspendImpact (2025) [Single]hypnotic, ethereal, rhythmic, melodic, atmospheric surprise. beat is p fun, xav > nett but both do a good job. i wasnt crazy ab it but it may be a grower 3 | |
Corpus Luteum CystSurgical Excision of Symptomatic Sacral Perineurial Tarlov Cyst (2025) [EP]i see the vision, def potential. felt like hydroencephalo without distortion. the instruments need to be crazier 3 | |
Torturing NurseJunkyisuzu (2004)first track was cool, kinda inspo just feedback and somd vocals love that. second one is fine but it doesnt really add on to the ideas from the first, makes this release a bit too long for its own good. 3 | |
kynlaryPbs (2025)chaotic, dense, melodic i cant get into his vocals at all. the beats are also like whatever plugg stuff idk they didnt help. last track was awesome tho. cover looks like some true crime 2.5 | |
TxLxFxSxDxSxPxExDxHArterial Cancer Caused by Virulent Damage (2025) [Single]meh. felt like nothing. idk if this is even gore really just like banging on drums + noise 2.5 | |
PaniekAtlantikwall (2016)lamo recommended this to me like a billion years ago just now getting to it <3 sry really amazing stuff though felt like the shortest 6 hours ever. very very slow moving but theres a lot of different progressions throughout the whole thing. every track has its own unique identity. could probably do an entry for each one if you wanted to. perfect relaxing textures. the ending was beautiful too 3.5 | |
TxLxFxSxDxSxPxExDxHCadavers Engulfed in Toxic White Mushrooms on Them Found in the Play-Area of a Park (2025)interesting stuff but its in one out the other. i will be following up with their subsequent releases. 3 | |
PilzKriegerInzest, Kinderschändung, Zeremonie (2018)aggressive, chaotic, dense, raw, violence pretty fun. cool that like mlst of this is just drums and distortion. love the bm demo aesthetic for extratone. we need to start playing around w that more 3.5 | |
Spiral TribeSpiral Tribe (1994)part 3 of the SP dj cass series. the least exciting of them all but still fun. i think a > b 3 | |
アンモナイトのささやきを聞いた [I’ve Heard the Ammonite Murmur] (1992)basically just gorgeous cinematography slop. yeah its all suoer pretty but its like nothing works as a full length movie. as my hro would say. the images have no harmony. or whatever. wish it tapped into actual geology but its just like some japanese metaphor i guess. incest 2.5 | |
Necrotik Fissure◚ (2022)all done with this one, onto more long! cover is one of his best and one of the best ever, so i rly wanted to love this but in classic nf fashion most of this is just okay. admittedly its not all the best textures, i cant wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone, but theres a good handful of tracks on here that are so mind numbing and meditative for me. i think a big draw for me to NF albums like this is how (and i hate to reuse the word) lulling some of the textures can be. he has this tendency to catch me off guard and then slowly over the hour and some change of runtime pull me closer and closer until ive fallen forever down this bottomless chasm and theres no more light or direction. 3 | |
Ten Skies (Erika Balsom) my good buddy informed me of this a few weeks back and i bought it pretty quickly. it arrived just after i finished A Darker Electricity which was perfect. major ups to Balsom for even being able to write this much about Ten Skies. its only 150ish pages (and very very small ones at that), but the scope of her essay is still really impressive. so informed, amazingly well researched and dissected. everything from the beginning of moving images to performance art to video essays to youtube compression. eloquently written, she has a penchant for hypnotic and lulling passages. i think i really loved reading this because i basically just got to rewatch the movje in my brain the whole tjme 4 | |
Rufige KruArk Angel 3 (1999) [Single]fun af, was stuck in my head for like 3 hours after i listened. need to cratedig more techstep 3.5 | |
IxindamixCatspit (1995) [EP]high hopes but it disappoints a lot. just nothing stuck with me. ig theres sometimes a cool idea 2.5 | |
Crystal DistortionCrystal Distortion (1995) [EP]another lit 12er. really fun rhythms. hes kinda my free party goat 3.5 | |
ElmoeBattle Zone (2025)hypnotic, sampling, ethereal, rhythmic, repetitive lovely. very interesting ideas here. some samples get a bit annoying. could be a bit shorter 3 | |
Spiral TribeSpiral Tribe (1994) [DJ Mix]i was unaware until now that Spiral Tribe is actually the second cassette in a 3 part series from SP, so might as well listen to the other two! more medium tempo stuff, very acid, but its chill. the first side i wasnt crazy fw but its back to party business on the second. 3 | |
Pieces of April (2003)impulse watch with my gf. very very lovely. warms every inside. passionate sincere filmmaking. suburban culture. american family. the ending is some true healing 3.5 | |
DJ Adam XCannabalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller (1993) [EP]not freetekno, but the party will go on regardless! not really familiar with any purely acid techno stuff but i really dug this. super bouncin and headbobbin, real exciting stuff no weak points. gotta keep looking into this area of music 3.5 | |
StalkerFull Bass 04 (1999) [EP]rhythmic, instrumental, energetic, noisy just perfect for cutting shapes and tearing up the dance floor (the empty freezer). love the way breaks are used in this. pukka! 3.5 | |
Crystal DistortionOffworld Redliner Electronics (1996) [EP]bouncy, futuristic well it must be fuckin free point five friday too because everything sounds good today. killer first track, 11 minute epic, massive proportions. while i wasnt big on B1 the last track wrapped up the release super nicely. great drums 3.5 | |
Curley & R-ZacSahara Tekniq (1995) [EP]the party continues. more dark awesomeness, rzac is dope, always some fun rhythms 3.5 | |
Spiral TribeSpiral Tribe (1994) [DJ Mix]heavy, repetitive, energetic, rhythmic, tribal what better way to ride the high of finishing up the spiral tribe literature than with... spiral tribe mixes! well just one today but more later. its freetekno friday! super bouncy super fun exactly what im looking for in freetek stuff. dark, acid, future, slicing... so dope. also realized that the sides of the tape dont have proper outros because the length of the tape might end, but the party doesnt! 3.5 | |
filthygenesFriends (2024) [EP]bronclair and mike's tracks are really good. very good presence from them and really sweet beats. nothing else to write home about (unfortunately some mid tier nett) and the brennan jones track is gone forever so idgaf whatever. 3 | |
march 14 today is pi day! its a bit hot outside which sucks but its okay because i went to my friends house and we recorded a nojse album. that will be out one day. i also bought mini pies to eat with my girlfriend later today. i hope tomorrow isnt so hot | |
Vziel Projet / 🦊Split! (2025) [Single]hypnotic, surreal, atmospheric, mysterious, instrumental soooo lovely. vziel side is comfy reminds me of the ambient i would listen to in highschool. lamo side is ❤️ filled with love and comfort always makes me want to go make music keep being epic lamo 3.5 | |
Carnivorous Nausea / Drowned in Sewage LiquidsBeauty Immersion on Secretion & and Bodily Liquids / Liquid Shit Bath in the Jacuzzi (2013)first half is lit vibes good drums. second is not as good but its chill. gore 3 | |
Xxtarlit⚸Iterate6 (2025) [Single]rottingguest snipe its whatever. potential. i never cared to look into this artist because they were kind of annoying whenevrr we were in xoarkcord together. also ive heard evil things about them... but also i just dont care alot about the atmodnb scene these days aside from some standouts. i kind of want to remix this i bet i could 2.5 | |
A Darker Electricity: The Origins of the Spiral Tribe Sound System FINALLY finished this one (which i started in JANUARY). great read, honestly just a lazy guy when it comes to these really lengthy novels that arent IMMEDIATELY gripping. inspiring stuff. a lot more focused on the people rather than the music (which makes sense; its an origin story...) (theres almost no writing about the music at all really, you dont even find out whose alias is whose until the second to last page!). but i didnt mind that necessarily. its a distant era/scene that i could never know anything about, im grateful mark actually put this together (so recently too), i cant imagine the freetek literature demand is too high these days. its kind of gay acid-shrooms-enlightenment at times but its charming nonetheless. the police angle is fucked. why are they so mean. oh yeah because THEY HATE FUN! well let me tell you this: you may have stopped the party... BUT YOU CANT STOP THE FUTURE!!! 3.5 | |
In the Lost Lands (2025)watched on the recommendation of shave with my friend and my girlfriend. 3 | |
march 13 another lovely spring break day. yesterday was nice, too, even though i had to work. we spent the whole day doing chores which honestly felt nice. it was a really fulfilling day. today was all about reaping the benefits. we hung out with some friends and got a seafood boil - which we bouth thought was kjnd of overrated and way too expensive - but it was still fun. the weather is starting to get hotter, my beautiful spring wont last much longer... | |
Шумоизоляция [Shumoizolyatsiya]Разнообразие однообразия (2024) [Compilation]spent the last week or so hammering away at this. pretty much exactly what it says in the description, just a fuck ton of drafts from 2024 that never got their own independent releases (i think...). drafts they certainly are: a lot of these tracks are very very similar to eachother - its quite a monolithic listen! - and very few are standoutish enough to warrant repeated visits or even any kind of memory allocation (a handful of anw tracks almost make this totally worth it). that said, its still decent texture work and something i appreciate about dyadya's style is that its never grating - he seems to always ride a fine line of harsh yet mellow. 3 | |
Pharoah SandersLove in Us All (1974)love, avant-garde, spiritual, improvisation, passionate this dude i hate told me to listen to this but i was in a good mood so i was like eh why not. pretty awesome stuff. love is every damn where. the second track beginning sounded kinda sinister but ig thats just how i hear that crazy horn stuff. one of the best covers 3.5 | |
GothloveeFour Bloody Walls (2023) [EP]sooo corny but ig i expected that w the title and artist whatnot. its fun though. a bit too on the nose but its some proper scene revival. my gf would probably like this more than i do 3 | |
f5veMagic Clock (2025) [Single]J-Pop, Dance-Pop, Electropop, Bubblegum Bass female vocalist, longing, rhythmic, happy, melodic yay they still havent missed and this song is soo candy sweet sounds a lot like sophie/the music my friend makes 3.5 | |
YHWH NailgunNo Midwife and I Wingflap (2022) [EP]Experimental Rock, Noise Rock, Neo-Psychedelia Industrial Rock, Post-Industrial, Math Rock dissonant, male vocalist, uncommon time signatures, abstract, noisy really cool. pretty exciting. drums sound awesome as fuck. growing on his vocals. 3.5 | |
Sergey PakhomovWhaler (2018)Ambient Noise Wall, Field Recordings noisy, instrumental, dense, ominous, mysterious very gorgeous, so textured and detailed. really does feel like youre whaling /gen 3.5 | |
The Visit (2015)our final V movie of tha night. he wanted to rewatch it. never really noticed how beautiful a lot of the cinematography is. also the whole twist is just so fucked up like really put yourself in their moms shoes shits twisted and evil. bro knows how to test the fucking family. shits funnier than i remember too 3.5 | |
La double vie de Véronique [The Double Life of Veronique] (1991)kieslowski... quit playin with the damn image! the fromt half is loaded with this insane onslaught of some of the most inspired and imaginative shots ever, lots of beautiful composition and filled to the brim with color theory. really unique and super lovely low fantasy story. it kind of comes to a grinding halt like 2/3rds in and gets very very slow and honestly pretty boring during its last leg. kieslowski takes his sweet ass time wrapping up what should realistically have been 20 minutes shorter than the current final product. no matter, doesnt take away from the amazing majority of the film. 3.5 | |
A History of Violence (2005)and so the rockcomments triple feature begins. some truth to what they say about cronenbergs best being his character studies (i still always have a spot in my heart for his horror<3). some real visceral family drama here. despite it being the inverse concept of Eastern Promises it lands so much more effectively. watching the family drama play out reminded me of shyamalan and Juror #2. kind of interesting how this is shot in like an 80s style. 3.5 | |
NascitariTanatoxina (2011)depressive, noisy, suicide, androgynous vocals very sandpaper hurts. a lot of exciting surprises. no spoilers here though... feels like a really impressive live performance 3.5 | |
ManiaInsidious and Alone (2010) [EP]violent highs but it meanders a bit much for me towards the end. amazing cover 3 | |
Nicole 12First Dance of the Spring (2011) [EP]its interesting how much emotion hes able to pull out of ideas like this, i think thats what keeps this above water for me. really rotten-fruit sad. 3 | |
phreshboyswagI Dont Like Waveriders *idlm 2* (2023) [Single]lovely. some classic sounding mack. beat makes me smile 3.5 | |
bleoodPain (2025) [Mixtape]Rage, Chicago Drill, Digicore, Industrial Hip Hop avant-garde, noisy, energetic, chaotic, gore exciting but unfortunately its not the tape we deserved. its consistent and its fun but theres only a handful of 22-24 type tracks; its surprisingly laid back and intelligible. cover sucks a lot honestly. some inventive beats. 3 | |
march 11 im on spring break this week so i dont have classes, but my girlfriend does (different colleges). i joined her and explored her campus, read and chilled while she was in class. the weather is finally lovely again. its too windy to read outside but its sunny enough that im just as happy inside. almost done with A Darker Electricity... later today i will watch movies with my friend freecommas my computer is starting to really get old - the usb ports keep fucking up and wont detect anything. apparently its a motherboard issue which scares me. and my check engine light finally came on today. which is awesome... not. | |
Necrotik Fissure◇ (2021)fucked isolating nothing sensory deprivation mist and ghosts the first two are some of my fav nfs. the third holds this back as its some chhhh. fourth is good. 3.5 | |
Pillar of WaspsA Collective Hallucination (2023)heavy, aggressive, dissonant, chaotic, dense another band weve played with before. i actually ended up having to leave the show early and i didnt get to see PoW's set (major regret on my end). its pretty fun super crushing locust frontierer vibe stuff, love the 808s and the drummer is ridiculously wild. another band today that makes lots of fun silly guitar noises (and synths?). i dont like how the vocals are mixed though, sounds very dry. and i also do not like the lyrics. but ig thats the least important part of this. super loud. hope we can get a bill together again soon 3 | |
YHWH NailgunYHWH Nailgun (2022) [EP]Post-Industrial, Industrial Rock, Art Punk, Post-Punk noisy, hypnotic, dissonant, rhythmic, male vocalist while watching Open Head my guitarist reminded me of this band, ig there is some similarities, but yhwh is a lot less conventional and melodic. also a bit more frantic. its cool stuff but like OH i wish it had more exciting climaxes. the little guitar noises they do are really fun though. his vocals are interesting. excited for the new album we were actually supposed to play with these guys too, like a year or two ago? for some sxsw thing, but they had to cancel on their end of the bill due to someone being sick or whatnot. sucks 3 | |
Open HeadWhat Is Success (2025)dissonant, noisy, rhythmic, male vocalist, hypnotic this entry and the next are technically in reverse order, this will make more sense narratively so bear with me. the show we played last night was with this band, Brain Sweat, Big Girl and Bobo. i only caught the tail end of Bobo's set but it was pretty good. classic denton weirdo rock (no thanks to the all star lineup) with enough personality that it stands out even in that crowd. Big Girl was touring with Open Head from NY. the former did some interesting very narrative monologueing dance punk stuff which isnt really my thing but was entertaining to watch (they have a fun drummer). the latter was ridiculous. two computers... they had two whole macs out during their set! and at one point there was live delay on the snare?? very exciting to watch, really unique. i have to say though, it doesnt quite translate as well in a recording. just my personal take though. it still sounds really solid and is quite inventive, but i wish there were more exciting climaxes and stronger sections. lots of potential though, very curious to see where they go. House sounds like death grips im sorry 3 | |
toeThe Book About My Idle Plot on a Vague Anxiety (2005)instrumental, rhythmic, technical, calm, atmospheric for reasons i seriously cannot disclose here (signed NDA + under oath + iykyk + code of honor) i was reminded about this this morning and i listened to it before going to work. fuck my life man why is this so boring. im just super over the midwest emo guitar tone and this feels like it has no flare whatsoever to justify that to me. yes the drummer is pretty damn good but he's unfortunately trapped in an endless angular twinkly prison 2.5 | |
march 11 i want to start writing more about what im doing and not just about the music im listening to. a bit of a return to form kind of thing if youre a long time diary head. i think for the past couple years or so ive been numbed by routine and my outlook has been less and less excitable. recently ive seen an upturn on that though and life is beginning to have color again, it feels like theres a nice healing resonance all around me. today i went to the gym, we finally are grtting back into the routine after the huge hiatus last year which is nice. afterwards we got lunch and chipotle. i just ate chips and queso becuase i fucking love their chips and queso. we took a really nice walk in the park by our apartments, which we for some reason had never visited until today in our almost year long residency here. the weather was perfect for it, and it was serenely quiet once we got deep enough into the trail. we caught several beatles getting it on 📸 | |
The Grasshopper Lies HeavyA Cult That Worships a God of Death (2021)Post-Hardcore, Atmospheric Sludge Metal heavy, raw, male vocalist played a show (which i will touch on later) and someone was allegedly playing this as house music between sets. well either they lied or i cant find whatever song by these guys it was but this was boring as fuck which is sad because whatever i heard at the show sounded like a more tech-mathy black sheep wall with their kino screamz vocals and the most ripping 4hz bass tone. this is not that though. super uninteresting meandering brief glimpses of brutal genius but it just sputters out most of the time. 2.5 | |
God Speed You Black Emperor!All Lights Fucked on the Hairy Amp Drooling (1994)Tape Music, Sound Collage, Noise, Avant-Folk, Spoken Word, Post-Rock, Slacker Rock lo-fi, avant-garde, noisy, eclectic, surreal just going through old bandcamp saves. finally getting around to this. where were you when ALFOTHAD leaked... super cool this is available now but i totally see why they were not tryna drop. really boring and very amateurish experimenting whatever. basically sounds nothing like gybe (except the weirdo dark atmosphere similar to f#?). felt like a really really long improv set where everyone on stage was drunk and for some reason half of them had costumes on and the other half were wearing khakis. iykyk. there are some nice strumming riffs though. 2.5 | |
UntranceDeleted Seniors (2011)Hard Trance, Happy Hardcore, Chopped and Screwed, Bouncy Techno, Plunderphonics lo-fi, surreal, noisy, atmospheric, psychedelic a bit skeptical going in... esp with the proto-hexd trance shit.. but its fine. some good ideas and occasionally pretty fun but it does too much experimentaling that ruins its momentum. 3 | |
Eliane RadigueFeedback Works 1969-1970 (2012)Drone, Acousmatic Music, Tape Music Tape Music, Sound Art, Process Music calm, ominous, atmospheric, mysterious, instrumental <3 so lovely. hypnotic; i love the panning work she does, makes these pieces so much more engaging. blends in perfectly with my surroundings and it ends up feeling so immersive 3.5 | |

Éloge de l'amour [In Praise of Love] (2001)watched this morning while chilling. gonna try to get through the rest of his post-2000s late films later this month or year think ill never be able to fully appreciate his style just because it feels like theres so much to unpack. the first hour seemed to kind of drag on but those last 30 minutes were really inspiring. beautiful over saturation and image transpositioning; amazing camera work and different shots and stuff. i like the soundtrack a lot 3 | |
twothousand5 & Lamo2014 Car Radio (2022) [EP]this is very fun. really awesome glitching noise, i like that the sample clips dont take over the runtime and are quite sparse relatively. lolicore tertiary 3 | |

Ghost MountainOctober Country (2025) [Mixtape]Synthpop, Darkwave, Cloud Rap, Trap, Wave, Post-Punk autumn, forest, male vocalist, melancholic, ethereal quite ambivalating. i dont mind the very hard wicca/peep/salem biting, but a lot of these songs are really ugly "punk" drum doubletime beats and i just cant stand hearing that. it feels like a weird instagram remix idea. on the other hand i love his vocals on all of these, and especially on the traditional halftime ones (levlar, lake, stalks, moulder to an extent, and damien). the features are fine. perhaps the best outcome of gm coming back (aside from more gm) is sem actually putting in some effort and emotion into his verses. love whatever is going on in damien. ill be listening back over the next few days, but i cant imagine this being any higher with all the dumb ass beats. 3 | |
MandyTrick (2023) [Single]pretty awesome. love the vocal delay and the 808s are literally crushing. would love to hear more of this from him 3.5 | |
R-Zac 23Base Support / Apocalyptic Heroes (1995)repetitive, hypnotic, energetic, instrumental, rhythmic good head bobbing. probably sounds amazing on a massive sound system with the lights out in some basement. the second track is pukka! 3 | |
Vildhjarta+ sargasso + (2025) [Single]heavy, surreal, progressive, chaotic, dissonant pierce said it was gimmicky and contrived but i liked it 🤯 i probably wont get tired of their style for a long while, even if it is a bit gimmicky 3.5 | |
BNSF (2013)a bit of a laid back night watch. did some laundry. ate a burrito. i love the imbetween time waiting for the train to come back, its quiet and meditative. a reminder that so much of our world is vast empty transition-space, where things simply pass through. the ending is particularly beautiful, as the sky turns a gorgeous pink-blue when the sun begins to set off screen. 3.5 |
Ship SketHerobrine (2019) [EP]first track is pretty cool. sounds a lot like something my friend would make or dj. idrc about the second one 3 | |

OrchidSkull Sessions (2025) [Additional release]male vocalist, chaotic, noisy, passionate, philosophical the alt mixes of s/t tracks are so good, massive guitar. i kind of like his vocals being a bit more buried as well. the live tracks are great too, i love how fast they play everything. ill probably never get to see them live which is cool 3.5 | |
akoge_no friends (2021)Experimental Hip Hop, Trap, Cloud Rap, Nightcore interesting ideas, theres probably potential somewhere, but this mf has some poor ah presence behind the mic. a bit repetitive too 2.5 | |
Vivian RaineReach the Sky / Touch the Sky (2025) [EP]mellow, repetitive, ethereal, minimalistic, atmospheric very warm. nostalgic indeed. lovely cover. not exactly what i was expecting. i need to catch up on lamos label... 3 | |

David Shawty X Yungster JackApple Vision Pro (2023) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Cloud Rap, Digicore surreal, atmospheric, male vocalist dont let the 3 star rating fool you this is like the weirdest shitわ ever. sounds like 2020 david jack met 2012 gtb. not very convincing performances but notable nonetheless 3 | |
Yungster Jack & David ShawtyNitemare (2020) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]Halloween i listened to this some time ago but never realized it was on this site. im sure now that ive put it in my diary the mods are working overtime to get it taken down so wnjoy the entry before it becomes lost media its a good comp with half of the tracks im familiar w and the other half new to me. the leaks are good except i cant stand yurms. highkey jack biased here i think david only has a small few solos. weird they didnt include pressure or kiss my own dick or battlebus or a few others but w/e i have my own comp for a reason 3 | |
My Soul to Take (2010)went over the blugs housu and we watched this together. really messy and very tonally weird but its interesting and has cool ideas. i like the teen movie aspect, but its played off like if Detention [Let's Be Friends With Benefits] wanted to be taken seriously. a handful of standout shots. 2.5 | |

Krótki film o zabijaniu [A Short Film About Killing] (1988)just gotta watch the full lengths now. i dont really think extending this episode added a whole lot, its pretty much the same idea with i guess a few extra scenes added in. i will say though that it literally never gets boring watching the vignettes and lighting effects. always some crazy weird shitわ going on. 3 | |
Short Bus Pile UpEarly Slamography (2022) [Compilation]the ep was fine, some silliness. they didnt have their slam sound locked in just yet. but thats where the promo comes in bc that is some epic awesomeness. mixing is perfect. fubar is of course a standout, but theyre all good 3 | |
Dekalog [The Decalogue] (1989)FINALLY finished with the original 10 episode run! took like half a year but thats okay. in hindsight i shouldve written something about each episode but sometimes we cannot decipher gods plans for us. all around great filmmaking lovely atmosphere vibes and textbook camera work here. always some moods standout eps for me are 1 (best), 3, 5, 6 and 9. na | |
bleood & yukeWolves in Sheeps Clothing (2024) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Plugg, Digicore male vocalist easily one of the greatest rap songs of the 2000s. zatrus mind needs to be dissected in a lab, and yuke needs some kind of award for that beautiful ass verse 4 | |
MulkTesto(y)sterie (2014)Cybergrind, Gorenoise, Breakcore Goregrind, Sound Collage, Splittercore, Glitch chaotic, mechanical, noisy, energetic, aggressive cant believe no one has ever recommended this to me before this is crazy. actually really really good, even though it does some gay ass sampling towards the end its okay. honestly tape metal secondary 3.5 | |
OomycotaDonkey Has No Name (2021)fucked. ruined. kicked over and spilt. where am i 4 | |
AbuseLike a Virgin (2001)manic, misanthropic, dark, hateful, disturbing a handful of really decent riffs; its quite competent. the vocals were surprising. kind of glad the sampling is minimal here - you never know with these anti-woman albums... 3 | |
Latex ChokerSmut (2023)pretty boring. ass texture 2.5 | |
Crush FetishUntitled IX & X (2022)Harsh Noise Wall, Ambient Noise Wall untitled 9 is one of the best things ever, lovely continuation of the sound they were working on with 8, but for whatever reason they included it with the very digital 10 which ruins this. 3 | |
HOMExINVASIONHOMExINVASION (2020)good slab 3 | |
GonococcusSession #8 (2017) [Single]seems like kinda older style he's using drums here. too short to feel strongly though 3 | |

SemataryHeart So Pure (2025) [Single]Emo Rap, Horrorcore, Jerk, Witch House alienation, self-hatred, breakup, angry, drugs a step in the right direction for sure. im not a fan of oxycodone but i enjoyed most of heart so pure. i like him getting a bit silly with vocals. good mixing and beat as well. i also like the cover, makes me think of Yes I Smoke Crack 3 | |
SwollenThe Breathless Waiting (1996) [EP]Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal heavy, dark, aggressive, noisy, technical the final listen on the day of many listens. super exciting classick sojnding bdm - you cant beat late 90s mixing like this. violent but very articulate. i love the synths in the last track - some real funeral slam vibes! 3.5 | |
David ShawtyMouth (2023) [Single]actually so ridiculous. put this on in the car w fuckcomments on our way home from work and we were dying the entire time. the stuttering tag the melody the key change the backing vocals during netts verse so fucking wild 3.5 | |
Royal JellyMiel de lavende (2018) [EP]Sludge Metal, Nature Recordings suspenseful, nature, surreal, aquatic, sampling the gore is great but i wish it did a little bit more of that and less of the quiet meandering 3 | |
Tantric BileVampire Boudoir (2025)Noise, Ritual Ambient, Post-Minimalism, Post-Rock noisy, chaotic, dissonant, avant-garde, atonal rly wild and sounds like nothing ive heard before. the vocals are ridiculous, especially when they are going off at the same time as the bird calls. crazy. kind of falls off in the seconf half for me though and gets a bit boring but its still overall very cool 3 | |
Excruciating Necropsy / Cirrhosis of the Liver Caused by Excessive Alcohol UseExcruciating Necropsy / Cirrhosis of the Liver Caused by Excessive Alcohol Use (2023)fine background walls. cirrhosis side is kind of chill 3 | |
Active StenosisSuccumbed to Infection (2015)heavy, aggressive, mechanical, male vocalist, violence somd of the best goregrind that has graced my ears in a long time. beautiful stuff. the vocals are really good, and its really interesting that i can sometimes actually make out some kind of flow and delivery. top notch programming. the best 3.5 | |
WormedFloating Cadaver in the Monochrome (1999) [Additional release]Technical Death Metal, Slam Death Metal heavy, science fiction, aggressive, punchy, chaotic kind of not rly at all like their main body of work but its super cool in its own right. has hints of the wild structuring they would go on to explore. really really fun stuff 3.5 | |
Drowning in FormaldehydeNightmares and Seroquel (2023)so stupid they kept doing meme slam stuff but then some of these breakdowns are just filthy and ridiculous. great mixing honestly miss you tay 3 | |
Anal Birth / Urinary Tract Infection From Severe Pus ClotsAnal Birth / Urinary Tract Infection From Severe Pus Clots (2024)the two biggest names in all of gorenoise drop a massive split in the year 2024 and its... just okay. for whatever reason it feels like neither party really brought their A-game, especially AB who's side just kinda starts then ends. i liked UTI's side more, some actual songwriting qualities make it stand out. but overall this was kind of meh 3 | |
HOMExINVASIONAnita X (2020)also loving comfy relaxing. im surprised lamo doesnt like this one so much 3 | |
Crush FetishUntitled VIII (2021)very beautiful campfire but feels cold somehow.. so unexpected. thanks anna 3.5 | |

Left-Handed Memories (1989)and then the very final watch to finish off the epic fuck comments rock timents night of laments. im gonna be honesg i dont remember too much about this other than it didnt move me too much. its probably good though na | |
怨廻 [Onne] (2006)last full length of the night. me and bro got this file like 2 or maybe even 3? years back and hadnt gotten around to it until now. hella potential but just so fucking boring. i like the chamber aspect and its got the vibes of a great early internet movie but cant capitalize on any of its rights. had some incomparable laughs during this one. mclunky forever 2.5 | |
Ten Skies (2004)no words, sorry. it is really lovely to me how hes still able to capture the human-nature juxtaposition even in the confines of such a distant and bare theme. 4 | |
From the Notebook of... (1972)the rip of this looked absolutely beautiful probably the most perfectly preserved film ever for some reason. lots of really interesting and unique play with geometry, form and composition. it became apparent early on that there wasnt going to be a lot of time to read the notes on screen so i just stopped trying, but i do wonder about them in retrospect. i like the shots playing with colored bars and rectangles. also all the shots of the film being made. maybe too much penis though 3.5 | |
Hours for Jerome (1982)really lovely editing. was not expecting the ridiculous strobing flowers though. some of this is kind of silly though like recordings of people just driving or just walking through the street. was probably annoying as fuck living near these dudes 3 | |
Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning (2012)fucking crazy. first of all those fucking strobe light sequences were insane genuinely hurt my eyes i was tearing up sitting through those. love how little it tries to explain, you just kind of go with this dude and accept that he has to be bad ass and slow mo kill all these other bad ass dudes trying to slow mo kill him. definitely a bit confusing but who fucking cares. the production value looks so crazy 3.5 | |
Anticipation of the Night (1958)beautiful looping memory sequences. your backyard is so beautiful. the way light paints the door is perfect. quite tame in terms of editing, for brakhage i mean. i think its nice that its mostly just footage and not his usual paint stuff. not that i dont like that its just cool to see him work outside of that. i like the trees. suicide 🤯 3.5 | |
Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (2016)the rockhoovian night of movies begins. ambitious and crazy. im honestly not a huge fan of the higher frame rate but its cool to see people trying new things. perhaps theres a 120fps movie for me somewhere in the future. the editing is awesome, especially in one particular sequence near the end. i like kristen stewart 3 | |
DJ GYROTTA ZAOLARD (2022) [EP]Sound Collage, Jumpstyle, Hardcore [EDM] Dark Ambient, Hardstyle, Impressionism, Industrial Hardcore, Jumpstyle dark, scary, avant-garde, disturbing, sampling boring whatever. theres potential though. needs to be a bit more focused 2.5 | |
Ushinawareta TamashīShin'en (2017)aquatic, repetitive, calm, meditative, soothing beautiful. laying down on a lake of ice and listening to your reflection scratch underneath the surface. wind above you softly whistling. i do wish i could just make it louder though 3.5 | |
Dj Ninja Love MistakeEarly lolicore worx (2010)rhythmic, sampling, energetic, noisy its got good moments but theyre scattered all throughout this really boring whatever nonsense. im sure hes got a decent full track somewhere 2.5 | |
JackzebraAbove & Beyond (2025) [Mixtape]Experimental Hip Hop, Ambient Plugg, Trap eclectic, nocturnal, psychedelic, calm, melodic bro is always working. lovely that we got another hour+ tape from him so soon after 王中王 [King of Kings], and hes apparently got another 2025 album scheduled? really dug the first half. just some classick zebra. he also dips into rage its nice. the second half is way more experimental though, hes raping over all these ambient nod-ish beats and just generally weird instrumentals. its cool that hes experimenting and doing new stuff but honestly it got pretty boring as it went on. probably could grow with relistens though 3 | |
Various ArtistsSelections From the Sewer Vol. 3 (2024) [Compilation]figured i may as well just knock out the third one while i have time. i really hope he continues to do these compilations in the future, its a great way to make his older lost releases more accessible really enjoyed the ganglio and macro tracks. pisswhore sucked. 3 | |
Various ArtistsSelections From the Sewer Vol. 2 (2024) [Compilation]more decent. didnt like the first couple that much. tapeworm ❤️ 3 | |
Various ArtistsSelections From the Sewer Vol. 1 (2024) [Compilation]a fine collection of little bobby things. the extratone ones were crazy. 3 | |
Dr Pepper Blackberry did one a few years back for their Dark Berry flavor, seemed only fitting to bring this back for the new blackberry one. i definitely dont love it as much as dark berry, or maybe even regular DP for that matter (its hard to say, sometimes im not in the mood for something berry, sometimes i want something berry!) but its definitely one of my fav new sodas ive had in recent times. maintains the classic integrity of the og DP flavor while bringing just enough berry that it can stand on its own. still pretty dark too. the only qualm i really have with this flavor is that it can just get boring to drink after a while. not sure id recommend a 12pack unless you really love the taste, but i prefer cans over bottles so woe is me i guess. | |
measuring change (2016)capping the night off with the companion piece to Casting a Glance. i wish there was a dedicated archive to hosting benning's work, because so much of the magic is lost in lower quality reuploads. especially his very static works, theres so much compression sometimes its just tragic. it does add this really unique layer to the viewing though, watching the small pixel-people stutter and artifact. not the experience i intended to have but im making the most of what ive got. doing my best to ignore the shortcomings of 360p reups this is a very meditative and relaxing watch. very lovely just to see how the sun and clouds change over such small courses. also great to see more people with the sculpture - it helps to give scale. na until i watch a higher quality version |
Damien De CoeneChurchgoer (2019)distant and lonely. the last several tracks felt amazing. i want to come back to this and see if i enjoy it any more 3 | |
DahmerDahmer (1996) [EP]violence, manic, energetic really noisy and fucked. very violent. perfect length. awesome 3.5 | |
Genophobic PerversionIn Mere Moments… Gone (2025)opens really strongly, i love the drums a lot sounds like Pup Samsara inspired its cool. unfortunately kinda falls off in the second half and gets a bit boring. gp should keep exploring this sound! 3 | |
goreshit / Dj Ninja Love MistakeGoreshit & DJ Ninja Love Mistake Split (2008)Lolicore, Plunderphonics, Power Noise, Noise Gabber, Speedcore, Sound Collage dissonant, sampling, lo-fi, rhythmic, noisy for whatever reason the youtube upload i watched of this alternates the tracks between each side. very weird choice but it lowkey works. pretty good goreshit side held back by a weak DJNLM side. classic goreshit trax here, great early lolicore roughness, some inventive sample flipping as well. DJs side is definitely interesting and as far as lolicore sound collage artists go its in the higher tiers, but the tracks are far too long and far too boring to warrant any repeat listens. 3 | |
Kevin DrummSheer Hellish Miasma II (2025)infernal, noisy, dense, apocalyptic, instrumental was super excited about this and while its definitely really unique and interesting its just not super great in my opinion. its cool to see him continue to work in the wall space, i imagine this is something he'll continue to explore in future releases. the textures here are very odd but reward attentive listening, i just dont know how much i actually enjoyed them. 3 | |
Casting a Glance (2007)decided to spend some time today getting back into the benning grind. hopefully in the next week or so, BNSF? the fastest paced benning joint ive seen so far, might as well be an action movie as far as he goes. dozens of striking shots; he captures sound really excellently and it helps to create this really serene experience. super interesting watching this area change over the seasons - a brand new aspect becomes the most beautiful part of the sculpture for every new visit. particularly love the shots with faint music. not sure what all the WHEE!!!s were about but im glad you were having fun bro 3.5 | |
Milk (2008)its an acting movie. if you like strong precision performances you'll like it. none of Milk is what draws me to Gus as a director. style is here, sure. i suppose it looks decent and there are plenty of interesting flares of artistry that crop up throughout the runtime, but it lacks the subtleties and underspoken, transcendent and impactful qualities that his previous 4 movies had. i think he should stick to the non-narrative things instead. 2.5 | |
Brève traversée [Brief Crossing] (2001)quiet, slow, subtle. warmth under the blanket and then splashed with ice water. a thin slice through the intersection of two lost confused lives. crushing - its maybe a bit ridiculous to say but it feels like the audience itself was groomed. a young boy with his head in his pants takes advantage of the emotionally vulnerable, recently divorced english woman, he has no regard for her feelings, no regard for romance; his goals are simple and bestial - like all men. manipulated to think hes the force shes fighting against; to think hes the antagonist - our simple-minded animal in heat. so cold. 3.5 | |
gl0wrmPlume (2020) [EP]handfulf of nothing worthless experiments. not even sure what else i could say about this. 2 | |
SpaceGhostPurrpTerror Gang: Dark Riddim (2018) [DJ Mix]boastful, dark, urban, nocturnal, quirky fire shit. very evil. for every track that got kind of boring there was a lit as fuck one right around the corner. la gooney chonga's is awesome. 3.5 | |
@Mg BurtoEvil Flow Album 23 (2023)playful, manic, energetic, sampling, rhythmic its whatever. nothing catches my attention 2.5 | |
Hemorrhoidal Anal Suffering / Torturing NurseSplit Tape C-10 (2010)really unique gorebient first track... very interesting, cool this came out in 2010. torturing nurse side idrgaf about 3 | |
rare hi c comp I KNOW YOU ARE WATCHING ME MODS!!! I KNOW WHAT GAMES YOURE PLAYING!! 1.5k people rate this damn comp and the minute i decide to rate it yall take it down. i waited 5 damn years to rate it again 😭 its chill some tracks i give no fucks about and some i give a handful of fucks about 3 | |
goreshitsteppa (2010)Ambient Techno, Breakcore, IDM, Dubstep, Darkstep atmospheric, rhythmic, cold, futuristic, lethargic its cool to hear him do more chill ass laid back shit but fuck him for teasing me in the beginning with some dope breaks and then switching it up to mid garage whatever. im playing though. 3 | |
carbineSay So (2021) [Single]sampling not bad. fun stuff 3 | |
Process Is DeadProcess Is Dead (1998) [EP]lo-fi, raw, dark, passionate, aggressive decent skramz stuff. would probably have been better with chicken vocals 3 | |
TapewormInvasion #1 (2012) [Additional release]goregeous disgusting and perfect vibes. thank you bobby 3.5 | |
Vestibulum VacuüiGeworpen, als gepijnigd door een doornenkrans (2018) [EP]peaceful, funereal, cold, lonely, sombre morning shift today... starting with something softer... very lovely vibes atmosphere. i wish it was a bit less reverby though. reminds me of a lot of the dark vaporbient stuff i was bumping when i was in high school 3 | |
PhyllomedusaA Triplet Murder in Maryland (2021) [EP]Gorenoise, Harsh Noise, Sludge Metal noisy, chaotic, aggressive, manic, heavy thanks for the rec rottingguest ^_^ probably the only maryland gorenoise that will ever exist in human history. dont let it pass you by! its pretty fun. very intense. drums sound particularly dope here (to me). i wish there were more grinding sections though 3 | |
Chó Phú QuốcChân trời mới (2024) [EP]Plugg, Indietronica, Experimental Hip Hop, PluggnB ethereal, chaotic, dense, longing, melancholic very obviously of the post-gecs/jane remover rave-meets-cloudrap sound of the early 20s but is still doing enough with those concepts that it stays engaging. would be interested to see where this artist continues 3 | |
Sonny MooreBells (2008)Singer-Songwriter, Art Pop, Breakbeat, Emo-Pop, Acoustic Rock male vocalist, passionate, melodic, eclectic, acoustic very bjork inspired stuff but its still super unique and inventive. some ice cold instrumentals here but the atmosphere feels kind of warm. its really charming, and hes got an ear for beautiful melodies. love 3.5 | |
From First to LastDear Diary, My Teen Angst Has a Bodycount. (2004)Post-Hardcore, Mall Screamo, Emo-Pop melodic, aggressive, anxious, dark, male vocalist fun stuff. didnt realize sonny was pumpin out vocals like that. very saosin derivative but not in a bad way. 3 | |
Defeated SanityChapters of Repugnance (2010)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal dense, technical, aggressive, heavy, uncommon time signatures good stuff, but its the same problems i have with all their stuff in that it just isnt the greatest thing in the world. still a total mystery how these guys have FIVE bolded albums. good drumming 3 | |
HopesfallThe Satellite Years (2002)Post-Metal, Space Rock Revival, Midwest Emo melancholic, melodic, space, atmospheric, passionate way more emo than i was expecting. probably would grow on me if i ever continued to return to it. 3 | |
鬱P [Utsu-P]DOLL (2009) [EP]Alternative Metal, Melodic Metalcore heavy, female vocalist from when i was saving random metalcore whatever. really aggressive at times which is dope but all the melodic shitわ is so boring 3 | |
KevinHilfigerSALEM 2 (2021) [Mixtape]Trap, Experimental Hip Hop, Cloud Rap chill stuff. i like the vibes. some misses. bite back is heat. wish the xav track was better 3 | |
Swagtastic666Real Life (2023)drugs, female vocalist, sampling, party, playful same old same old boring overdone glo stuff. this does have liking things anthem though, which is a pretty great track 2.5 | |
Napkin TerrorizerCGCL (2015) [EP]female vocalist, energetic thanks lamo its cute and fun gives warm feelings 3.5 | |
ijiBirth by Sleep (2021) [DJ Mix]Cloud Rap, Instrumental Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Ambient Plugg atmospheric, ethereal, instrumental, peaceful in one ear out the other. interesting concept but very very boring 2.5 | |
Ç✭rtïêr' Smitty™Kick'n It (O.M.G) (2009) [Music video]Cloud Rap, Trap, Experimental Hip Hop male vocalist, aquatic, raw, lo-fi, dense 2009 is just ridiculous. even the video is crazy ahead of its time. real lovely stuff, huge fan of the beat 3.5 | |
OFWGKTAOldie (2012) [Music video]posse cut, happy, playful, mellow, male vocalist been saved in my watch later forever. fun to watch. i dont particularly love anyones verses but they all sound fine. its awesome when they hype each other up 3 | |
Main AttrakionzPerfect Skies / Chuch (2011) [Single]sampling, peaceful, male vocalist, psychedelic, calm really really amazing. why did we stop making music like this? 3.5 | |
Nettspend & filthygenesNettgenes (2025) [EP]Cloud Rap, Lowend, Experimental Hip Hop male vocalist, rhythmic, surreal, drugs, boastful not bad but it kinda just flies by. feel like songs lacked identity 3 | |
The Conspiracy (2012)very predictable and doesnt really do much of anything. the ritual process was kind of unnerving? certainly thrilling in some ways, but it definitely feels held back. its annoying how the decided to end it - if this was framed as a found footage deal primarily instead of a mockumentary the ending couldve been much more interesting. really didnt care about a good chunk of the setup as well. ig its supposed to show his character development going from sane to craxy or whatever 2.5 | |
CarnifexUntil I Feel Nothing (2011)Melodic Death Metal, Melodic Black Metal death, dark, heavy, male vocalist, anti-religious now deathcore. opens with some ball busting awesome breakdowns but is largely homogenous and not too exciting. still good to chill to 3 | |
Rotten SoundExit (2005)aggressive, angry, conscious, energetic, heavy driving around doing errands today. listening to grind. thinking about isomorphic cyclic subgroups of high-order highly-divisible abelian groups and their direct products. this is pretty damn good. major step up from the album prior. perfect production - exactly what you want in a grindcore album, a slough of filthy riffs and disgusting breakdowns, and some serious flurrying drums. dig the aesthetic as well. gonna be revisiting fs 3.5 | |
Oh, Canada (2024)really interesting. i can def see why this wouldnt land with audiences (if master gardener is that low then theres no way this is passing it up) but i found it really enjoyable. gere delivers like crazy here, and im a huge fan of the editing and storyline stuff. coming to grips with the terrible life youve lead in spite of whatever influence and legacy you'll leave behind. very subtle at times. biggest complaint is how it looks during the flashbacks of his younger self but im sure its a stylistic choice - it looks great everywhere else. 3.5 | |
xSERAPHxDemo (2025) [Additional release]passionate, aggressive, melodic, harsh vocals, heavy saw these guys in an instagram reel. kind of too short to say im one way or another about it; it didnt really make me feel anything. the end to track 3 has potential though 2.5 | |
ArkangelDead Man Walking (1999)apocalyptic, dark, energetic, heavy, rhythmic not as good as Overdose. its decent metalcore but i def had some problems, esp w the occasionally kinda sloppy drumming. good cover 3 | |
Gore GirlI Dont Want to Hurt Him. I Like Him. (2025) [Single]female vocalist, surreal, dense, rhythmic, raw interesting chill vibes. i like the vocals. good cover. kind of wish more was going on though 3 | |
ss3bby34dabest (2025) [EP]nonbinary vocalist please why is the first track brostep 😭 beats are great but bro needs to work on his presence or start getting carried by some features 3 | |
Yungster JackNewest Baby (2023) [Mixtape]Digicore, Ratchet, Lowend, Electropop, Dance-Pop, Jerk Rap playful, energetic, quirky, rhythmic, happy some of this is p corny and overproduced but goo od and on board are lit asf 3 | |
C. BoogieMunnie Fetish Renegade Demon (2016) [Mixtape]Cloud Rap, Trap, Experimental Hip Hop Tread, Chopped and Screwed, Chicago Drill dense, hypnotic, psychedelic, drugs, male vocalist just amazing this was 2016. feels impossible. people are still trying to figure this sound out almost a decade later. lyrically probably his best stuff ever he was so locked in here 3.5 for now | |
Chief KeefOttopsy (2018) [EP]male vocalist, urban, rhythmic, boastful, anthemic so awesome. probably infinitely quotable. last track is ridiculous 3.5 | |
Glokk40SpazGlokk Files (2023) [Compilation]boastful, male vocalist, urban, playful, aggressive not crazy ab his style. good beats though. occasionally good bar 3 | |
CelerHow Could You Believe Me When I Said I Loved You When You Know I've Been a Liar All My Life (2015)repetitive, surreal, longing, melancholic, peaceful deep meditative. warm childhood 3.5 | |
RosalíaMotomami (2022)Alternative R&B, Latin Electronic, Flamenco nuevo, Deconstructed Club, Reggaetón eclectic, female vocalist, quirky, passionate, playful interesting stuff cool prod sometimes. all the reggaeton tracks are heat. randomly samples souljaboy and ytiet. was hoping itd be more experimental 3 | |
aTelecine...And Six Dark Hours Pass (2010)sasha grey noise. its interesting. sometimes eerie and other times relaxing. weird loops. 3 | |
Cocteau TwinsVictorialand (1986)Dream Pop, Ethereal Wave, Ambient Pop ethereal, atmospheric, soothing, winter, calm occasionally very beautiful, but i wish there was just a bit more to chew on. first track is otherworldly though 3 | |
BatheA Field Guide to Dead Birds (2020)Dissonant Death Metal, Drone Metal, Dark Ambient dense, dissonant, chaotic, aggressive, male vocalist kind of whatever. cool stuff sometimes. interesting concept i guess. not bad. 3 | |
C'est pas moi [It's Not Me] (2024)pretty cool stuff, lots of unique editing and visually stunning shots/collages. i dont really know anything about carax at all though, i probably wouldve liked it more if i did after this we watched phonk edits for like an hour na | |
Leaving D.C. (2012)went over to bros and chilled watched. faulted in trying to be regular horror , should have leaned into some more experimental type deals. premise was intriguing but it doesnt live up. ending was great. hes a bit too loud. also very repetitive 2.5 | |
Examination of the...We Are the Architects of Desire (2001)sexual, chaotic, sad, dissonant, uncommon time signatures dont remember where i found this. the dark ambient seemed like it would weigh it down (it does) but the intro and outro are technically tape metal so thats cool. boring otherwise 2.5 | |
The Heads Are ZerosThe Heads Are Zeros (2017)female vocalist, aggressive, chaotic, dark, heavy same list. guitar is massive sounds great, otherwise its just regular skramz stuff 3 | |
Closet WitchCloset Witch (2018)Powerviolence, Emoviolence, Screamo female vocalist, aggressive, chaotic, manic, uncommon time signatures saved from some female lead singer grind list. doesnt do anything for me. derivative 2.5 | |
TaprootThe Episodes (2012)Alternative Metal, Post-Hardcore, Alternative Rock heavy, melodic, male vocalist hes got a good voice, guitar tones are dialed in, and i dont even mind the recurring text to speech thing, but none of these songs stand out from each other. ends up being a super tedious listen 2.5 | |
The BledPass the Flask (2003)heavy, dark, melancholic, aggressive, energetic some chill core. wish they leaned into melodic vocals more. interesting songwriting 3 | |
False NoiseEmerald Green (2018) [EP]Halftime, Techstep, Neurohop, Ambient energetic, atmospheric, rhythmic, dense, noisy feel like theres so many opportunities to experiment and do something really new and impressive within this style of music, unfortunately this doesnt tap in to any of that potential. 2.5 | |
Not for NowYour Only Forgotten Funeral (2005)male vocalist, anxious, aggressive, breakup, love was kind of hoping it might be cheesy enough that it would actually be charming but its just boring. nothing noteworthy 2.5 | |
DJ NateTake Off Mode (2019)sampling, urban, party, playful, energetic lovely. feels so ice cold (mayb thats becaus i was inthe frezer...) but its got so luch energy. really cool he was able to come back to this style and its like he never left 3.5 | |
YhapojjEvolution of Xur (2023) [EP]nocturnal, longing, romantic, love, rhythmic really tight stuff. major consistency. perfect beats real emotional and pleasant stuff - he sounds great on all these. need to seek out these bonus tracks 3.5 | |
BrujeriaMatando güeros (1993)crime, vulgar, hateful, death, violence saved this back when their singer passed (goes to show you how far behind on some of this shitわ i am) its decent grind stuff. i like the production. not crazy ab the vocals 3 | |
Since My BelovedThe Sickness Called Despair... (2021) [EP]Deathcore, Melodic Black Metal heavy, male vocalist, anxious, dark, death good metalcore. cant remember where i found this. nice melodics. i wish the vocals were clean sometimes. terrible cover 3 | |
SuffocationDespise the Sun (1998) [EP]Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal technical, heavy, aggressive, manic, male vocalist not sure i totally get the hype but its fun. nice older style production and stuff. good solo 3 | |
VulnusPromo 2023 (2023) [EP]technical this felt way longer than it should've. but not in a bad way? its cool. way more intricate than i was expecting 3 | |
Rotten SoundMurderworks (2002)aggressive, male vocalist, chaotic, heavy, misanthropic saw this in a list of grindcore stuff. its decent good blasting grind you know the deal. good aesthetic 3 | |
Boys Night OutYou Are My Canvas (2001) [EP]Post-Hardcore, Emo-Pop, Mall Screamo, Pop Punk heavy, energetic, bittersweet, passionate, melodic love the energy. not big on the vocals. i like the guitars. reminds me of early the used 3 | |
Palo Alto (2013)pa quiet cinema. the softest memories cut the deepest. everyone is their own universe on their own trajectories and we're all crashing into eachother and killing ourselves. stars flying everywhere. i really appreciate just how subtle and understated everything is here. camerawork, lighting, acting - especially Emma Roberts - are all quiet. theres this working little pet theory i have that their realities are constantly in flux - when spoiler: click to read. lots of needles and pins 4 | |
Redacted (2007)lots of uniqueness. some creative stuff here. love the internet screencaps and the windows movie maker transitions. devastating ending. majorly underrated. 3.5 | |
Far ApartHazel (1997) [EP]passionate, raw, longing, melancholic, male vocalist glad i finally got to this. first track is something else. cuts me up. the other two are good too. B1 has some nice guitars. 3.5 | |
Alexander PanosNascent (2022)Glitch, Epic Collage, Folktronica Electroacoustic, Glitch Pop, Ambient, A cappella lush, atmospheric, avant-garde, ethereal, bittersweet seemed like it may be fruitful but this was honestly super boring. lind of just felt like a never ending #SoundDesignSunday clip. also the guitars sucked honestly they sound like wii music and it kept taking me out of it 2.5 | |
XasthurNocturnal Poisoning (2002)depressive, raw, atmospheric, dark, dense one of my girlfriend's fav dsbm albums. its fine. i like the vocals and atmosphere but its a bit long winded for me. 3 | |
BloodGas • Flames • Bones (1999)Deathgrind, Brutal Death Metal aggressive, violence, heavy, macabre, raw more fun lovely. im a sucker for this old school grind mixing and tone. apparently the kick is panned to both ears - good thing i listened with one headphone! 3 | |
Gore InstinctInvasion of the Body Slammer (2013) [EP]lovely mixing. good drums. fun stuff 3 | |
Torture4 - "Enduring Freedom" (2023)Holy Minimalism, Avant-Garde Metal rhythmic, minimalistic, uncommon time signatures, war, heavy cant really say its bad but its just way too damn long and mostly nothing. the slams just so thin im sure thats the point or whatever but everything just feels lik a skeleton. whatever. i wish he'd go back to his old style 3 | |
NyctophagiaTerrified of Tomorrow (2021)heavy, raw, male vocalist, manic, dark saw these guys last year open for sulfuric cautery. i forgot it was another isaac band until now. they got old head energy but i fw them anyway. good drums. kind of sloppy in a positive way 3 | |
Raped by PigsSquealing to the New World (2014)competent, well mixed, i cant complain. its just that these bands that slam for slams sake always end up being really uninteresting. at least theres some decent breakdowns 3 | |
Killwhitneydead.Never Good Enough for You (2004)sampling, vulgar, dark, male vocalist, ominous another day begins. this was missing a track on spotify but im not going to bother finding it. it wont change my opinions. super weird mixing, not a fan of the drum sound. 4 billion samples. very boring 2.5 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairOcean Floors (2020) [Single]female vocalist, acoustic, androgynous vocals man when she diamonds comes in fucked 3.5 | |
E+EThe Light That You Gave Me to See You (2013)Epic Collage, Latin Electronic, Deconstructed Club Digital Cumbia, Huayno, Ambient Pop, Caporal, Contemporary R&B, Saya, New Age, Mashup dense, chaotic, rhythmic, avant-garde, sampling impulse. so weird. not at all what i was expecting. definitely gonna need to revisit this at some point. i really liked the first track. sounds insane. 3 for now | |
Eyes Set to KillWhen Silence Is Broken the Night Is Torn (2006) [EP]female vocalist pretty much just their first album. nothing surprising here. kind of cool to hear earlier versions of some of the tracks that ended up on there. 3 | |
Marjorie -W.C. SinclairBlindman's Holiday (2025)Experimental Hip Hop, Detroit Sound Nervous Music, Industrial Hip Hop, Electro-Industrial, Abstract Hip Hop, Nerdcore Hip Hop, MIDI Music, EBM deadpan, humorous, vulgar, playful, mechanical i really fuck with the super dark and aggressive atmosphere here, it sounds industrial. but besides a great run of three tracks from 3-5, not a whole lot sticks out to me. weirdly the most interesting aspect of this is the production... 3 | |
claire rousaya moment in st louis and a moment at the beach (2021) [EP]Ambient, Field Recordings, Musique concrète very serene. really stellar recording quality on the first track. feels healing 3.5 | |
Moody GoodGoofball (2019) [EP]energetic, rhythmic, sampling, aggressive, dense really fun stuff. first two tracks are great, lovely fat drops. i like anti acid's claustrophobic feeling. jimmytics is also good but the least noteworthy to me 3.5 | |
ROSÉRosie (2024)Adult Contemporary, Alt-Pop, Contemporary R&B breakup, female vocalist, bittersweet, sentimental, longing byoned boring. migraine headache mundane. this is an excellent reminder of why its so important that i cant parse the lyrics in most kpop. 1.5 | |
KISS OF LIFELose Yourself (2024) [EP]boastful, urban, party, female vocalist, energetic more nothing but it does have Get Loud which is super fun 2.5 | |
KISS OF LIFEBorn to be XX (2023) [EP]female vocalist, urban, playful, rhythmic, rebellious i think that with those dusty old recs finally tagged and processed, im out of my dry-spell and im back in the rating game. nothing here catches my attention. maybe 808. production is nice and consistent 2.5 | |
BrainiacElectro-Shock for President (1997) [EP]Noise Rock, Industrial Rock, Sass, Experimental Rock, Minimal Synth manic, anxious, dissonant, quirky, male vocalist it makes sense for them to have been moving in a direction with electronic stuff, i mean they were practically already making electronic music with Hissing Prigs. unfortunately this is the most boring fucking thing in the entire world. just about nothing of substance here except maybe Mr Fingers? but even then i dont know how much i care for that track. perhaps in an alternate universe we would have gotten a fully fleshed out EBM Industrial monster rivaling the success of early NIN 2.5 | |
3RA1N1ACHissing Prigs in Static Couture (1996)Noise Rock, Art Punk, Post-Hardcore, Sass, Experimental Rock Synth Punk, Sass, Dance-Punk, Post-Punk, Pigfuck manic, energetic, anxious, chaotic, noisy continuing to refine their style; this is probably their best release. one surprising takeaway for me was all the little noise bits and quieter details. i like the aesthetic it builds. kind of campy, though, ill be honest. 3 | |
BrainiacBonsai Superstar (1994)Noise Rock, Post-Hardcore, Art Punk, Sass Experimental Rock, Sass, Synth Punk, Pigfuck noisy, humorous, anxious, energetic, sarcastic a step further into the noise rock-isms; a bit less aggression. still cant say it does anything for me though. some choruses can get pretty annoying though 3 | |
BrainiacSmack Bunny Baby (1993)Art Punk, Sass, Indie Rock, Pigfuck, Dance-Punk, Grunge manic, energetic, quirky, anxious, abstract since we're listening to friends recs i say its about high time we knock out the oldest recs i havent heard yet. suuuper post hardcore. the most pure example of noise rock phxc you could imagine, i can def see why so many bands in the scene praise these guys as an influence. not that it does much for me, in fact im totally turned off by how phxc it all sounds (especially the drumming), but its not bad by any means. i think im maybe just 6 or 7 years too late to get a lot out of this. some songs sound exactly like one of my friends' bands 3 | |
OklouChoke Enough (2025)Alternative R&B, Ambient Trance, Indietronica, Ambient Pop ethereal, minimalistic, soft, atmospheric, melodic i kind of prefer this over galore, for now at least. im much more intrigued by the atmosphere and aesthetic of this one. theres more warmth in the melodies and timbres too. ict is awesome. im coming around to the bladee. still feels like im missing something though, and i cant justify a higher rating. also idk why i thought oklou had like hella albums i didnt realize this is practically her 2nd one 3 | |
OklouGalore (2020) [Mixtape]Alternative R&B, Alt-Pop, Ambient Pop, Electronic UK Bass, Field Recordings, Progressive Electronic ethereal, nocturnal, soft, female vocalist, atmospheric little rec im finally getting around to. lovely synths and melodies, i expected more drumwork but its largely ambient stuff. not bad but noteworthy. i like the field recordings. wish there were some more highlights. maybe im missing out on a relisten 3 | |
GorepofleshGore Fucking Corpses (2009)sexual, vulgar, death, aggressive, rhythmic really dope shitわ. riffage is top knotch, though i wish it was mixed a bit more clearly because the drums way overtake everything. not that thats bad, in fact the drums are probably the best part about this. 3.5 | |
bimby1 catsA Cozy Bed for You to Sleep In (2025)so good. glad we finally got this. the jerk tracks are still the best, but now shes making diary plugg tracks which is really cool. theyve all got some kind of interesting production ideas so they dont feel like usual generic #twilight slop, and ofc her vocals sound pretty good on all of it. unfortunately also includes her pinkpantheress atmodnb song which reeks major dong and theres a couple other ones i skip every time but the good outweighs the bad fs 3.5 | |
100 gecsBoiler Room: 100 gecs in Los Angeles, Mar 5, 2023 (2023) [DJ Mix]Nightcore, Brostep, Jungle, Hyperpop, Mashup, Jump-Up, Jersey Club, Dariacore, Trap eclectic, energetic, party, playful, rhythmic expected a little more awesomeness but sometimes idgaf ab whatever theyre trying to do. still some good track selections, a lot more amen break than i was honestly anticipating, and they have a very light and fun energy that kind of seeps through the music. 3 | |
Kaskade & SkrillexLick It (2012) [Single]French House, Progressive House sampling, instrumental, party, energetic, repetitive im not super big on the original track, its fun and old skrillex is awesomestjust its not essentialto me, but man every remix blows. feels like theres a ton of potential but no one can deliver 2.5 | |
H20$$$Sports$$$H20 Catalog 2014-2015 . Unreleased. R.I.P H20Sports (2017) [Mixtape]Instrumental Hip Hop, Cloud Rap, Trap psychedelic, rhythmic, ethereal, surreal, nocturnal just an untouchable vibe. feels like theres something living in the hi hats or something. lots of passion. 3.5 | |
Bladee & Ecco2kSummertime Demos (2024) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]surreal, peaceful, playful, ethereal, lush colorado was fun. skied and fell down alot. i ended up getting altitude sickness on the way back home and was bedridden for like a day but thats okay. i loved how walkable the city we stayed in was. its still american infrastructure so crossing the road requires walking over 5 lanes of traffic but its nicer than it is in texas. played a lot of poker with my family which i actually really enjoy. too bad its got so many sweats cute but kind of whatever collection of demos. one of them sounds like the rough draft of Yeses. grace is nice. crazy that skrillex produced the first 5. i guess they might have been from Real Spring/Summertime Blood sessions. 3 | |
Skrillex & DiploWhere Are Ü Now (Marshmello Remix) (Skrillex Flip) (2015) [Single]my goat forever 3.5 |
Yung LeanFrost God (2016) [Mixtape]cold, winter, male vocalist, boastful, drugs didnt care about anything except head 2 toe. he needs heavier vocal processing on like everything 2.5 | |
Kreayshawn#LuvMyFanz (2013) [Mixtape]really fun and silly. the concept is so dumb lol. wish she had more tracks where she was writing not just freestyling 3.5 | |
SkrillexEssential Mix (2013) [DJ Mix]House, Trap [EDM], Electronic Dance Music Tech House, Brostep, Fidget House, Deep House, Footwork urban, party, energetic, rhythmic hi im still alive kind of just background music while i was gaming and cleaning. its nice, some good song choices. if you were at all tapped in to the festival edm scene in 2012-2013 you'll recognize a bunch here. for me specifically theres a good amount of crossover with 2013's Shambhala mix which ive heard a million times now. doesnt feel very skrillex without his constant interjections and quick paced cuts (he lets the full runtimes play out for a lot of this) but its entertaining enough that that doesnt really matter. we're not here for sonny anyway, we're here to dance 3.5 | |
January recao writing this a bit late sorry been lazy and busy (terrible combination) fun good: Magick evil Petoman's Peflett bouncing Spiritual Science so locked in Thousands of Evils rly dark Total Harmonic Distortion melting Boiler Room Shanghai × IMS Asia-Pacific × OWSLA so nasty Triple Cs the new wave Sheol finally a true worthy successor to scaphism Demo: Addendum free death is saved fav movie na didnt watch anything worthwhile at all fav book Negative Space what else -lots of goa -idk im kicking rocks and pebbles in my head | |
Rick RossAston Martin Music (2010) [Single]Pop Rap, Contemporary R&B, Mafioso Rap atmospheric, boastful, hedonism, sensual, ethereal got a snippet of this in a reel and lost my mind. so damn heavenly, chrisette's vocals are elevating. ive heard the cut drake verse and it would be so goated on the official, a 7 min track of this would be so cool. production immaculate. idc for rick's lyrics but hes got a perfect voice and flow for this kind of stuff. lovely 3.5 | |

Bodies in the Gears of the ApparatusBodies in the Gears of the Apparatus (2003) [Additional release]maybe if 4 minutes of this 9 minute album wasnt samples it would be peaker 3 | |
Dusk EaterDemo: Addendum (2025) [Additional release]Avant-Garde Metal, Brutal Death Metal so fucking nuts. some of the most ridiculous metal ive ever heard. i wish it was longer 3.5 | |
Christian NecromancyThe Pederast (2025)Dissonant Black Metal, Avant-Garde Metal anti-religious, hateful, angry, disturbing, atonal its cool stuff but i find that its kind of one dimensional. the last track is definitely the best, and if you didnt feel like listening to all of this i think only that one would suffice. drums sound cool. 3 | |
KreayshawnMajora (2025) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Dark Plugg, Terror Plugg introspective, humorous, sexual, depressive, female vocalist ridiculous lol. some funny lines. she needs to just keep making random ass songs eventually ones gonna be peak as fuck 3 | |
Life of Belle random little found footage we decided to put on. surprised its not on rym. i dont feel like adding it. just paranormal activity from the kids perspective. i couldnt stand the wife. just really poor LOOK IM LIKE CRAZY!! acting. i wish it was more of the kids just doing stuff and random things happening that seemed weird. also not sure at all what the damn concept is. the ending doesnt really offer any explanations. 2.5 | |
Yung Lean x Thaiboy Digital x BladeeBuildings (2013) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Vaportrap ethereal, winter, cold, mellow, bittersweet beat so heavenly. amazing vocal chop sample. leans verse is uncharacteristically hazy, really love how his vocals are processed. you can kinda tell it was like one take vibes the way hes a bit off in some places lol. thaiboys is perfect ass shitわ. cant top that. and of course blader delivers. been bumping a lot of old gtb stuff lately. 4 | |

K9 HemorrhoidsK9 Sugar Girls (2025) [EP]heavy, sampling, noisy really stupid. samples dont need to be a minute long. 2.5 | |
Insalubrity / Excrescence / Anal Stabwound / TheurgySheol (2025)Brutal Death Metal, Technical Death Metal male vocalist, noisy, uncommon time signatures, rhythmic, infernal amazing start to brutality this year. while asw and theurgy are the attention grabbers, my favorite sides have to be insalubrity's and excrescence's. perfect firestorm beatdowns. i actually didnt like how asw's side sounded, its mixed so quietly. 4 | |
Hi-CDemon Luvv 615 (2017) [EP]psychedelic, sexual, lo-fi, ethereal, sampling he was really capturing something so special back then. untouchable vibes and atmosphere. feels so calming. the highlight is obv the second track, but the first is cool too. i prefer the version on lonestar 3.5 | |
N2E TYRONETHERAPPERTriple Cs (2025) [EP]Dark Plugg, Hardcore Hip Hop, Experimental Hip Hop, Terror Plugg Noise, Trap Metal, Industrial Hip Hop chaotic, noisy, manic, humorous, hateful actually ridiculous as fuck. guttural terror plugg collage. the parts where the entire track hard pans left and right are so disorienting. the features are insane too. gonna be keeping an eye on you tyrone 3.5 | |
The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)for some reason this was the only movie we could fucking decide on. i didnt expect much and i didnt get much. really terrible dialogue sometimes and its painfully flat and one dimensional. i think a longer runtime wouldve let more complex ideas paint themselves out, but i slso dont want to watch this for any longer than i need to. b/a | |
Paranoid Park (2007)watched this the other day with my girlfriend. gained a deeper appreciation for the music this time around. perfect soundtrack. american identity 4.5 | |
A Heartwell EndingTrust Us, We Lie (2006)anxious, sentimental, sexual, romantic, breakup gf rec kinda just sounds like neutered taking back sunday. lots of potential sure but it goes nowhere and gets old fast. also whats up with the misogyny yall... chill 2.5 | |
Bring Me the HorizonThe Bedroom Sessions (2004) [Additional release]Melodic Death Metal, Mathcore, Melodic Metalcore, Metalcore lo-fi, aggressive, male vocalist, energetic, anxious the quality jump from 2 to 3 actually hurt my ears so bad 😭 fine stuff. not as good as their first album or ep tho 3 | |
SkrillexBoiler Room Shanghai × IMS Asia-Pacific × OWSLA (2016) [DJ Mix]Brostep, Trap [EDM], Bass House pretty fun stuff. lots of nasty drops. love his stupid ass energy. didnt like the ending that much 3.5 | |
Vildhjarta+ kristallfågel + (2023) [Single]heavy, introspective, surreal, nocturnal, dark def my least fav of the singles but still good. just always gonna lose me with those damn clean vocals 3 | |
Vildhjarta+ ylva + (2023) [Single]atmospheric, complex, rhythmic, nocturnal, technical more really awesome. absolutely love the guitar sounds 3.5 | |
Vildhjarta+ den spanska känslan + (2023) [Single]Thall, Progressive Metal, Djent progressive, atmospheric, complex, dark, uncommon time signatures really cool. very exciting ending 3.5 | |
Humanity's Last BreathDetestor (2016) [EP]Deathcore, Thall, Progressive Metal heavy, dark, aggressive, male vocalist, rhythmic im not crazy. closer to normal deathcore than id like. maybe i need a relisten later. 3 | |
Various ArtistsThe Crystal Mountain (2012) [Compilation]Dark Psytrance, Forest Psytrance more time wasting wanted to like this more but the only tracks worth remembering are antagons :/ 3 its not bad just a bit disappointing | |
VildhjartaMåsstaden Under Vatten (Instrumental) (2021) [Additional release]instrumental, angular, surreal, nocturnal, dark the instrumentals can stand on their own just as strongly as their full-band counterparts. gives you a slightly deeper appreciation for the songwriting and technical intricacies going on that are easy to miss following the vocals. i think i still prefer the original but this is pretty damn awesome. 3.5 | |
VildhjartaEP leftovers (Tomorrow's Lunch) (2013) [Additional release]fascinsting they even scrapped some of this. its also nice to just listen to riffs like these in a comp format it just kind of feels right. 3.5 | |
YaminahuaTotal Harmonic Distortion (2011) [EP]Dark Psytrance, Hi-Tech Psytrance pretty ridiculous cool shitわ. last track has an insane drop towards the end of it. only downside is that fuck ass mario sample on one of the songs. ruins that shitわ completely 3.5 | |
Various ArtistsSchlabbaduerst 002 (2000)decent opening and closing tracks but it really drags in the middle. 3 | |
Various ArtistsFirst Flight (1996) [Compilation]nifty goa stuff. good for passing the time but nothing super standout except maybe xdreams track 3 | |
xaviersobasedon ya toe x right time (2023) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Dark Plugg avant-garde, surreal, raw, dissonant, hedonism shaverec structure is neat i fw the first track concept but my fav is the last one kind of blows the other two out of the water 3 | |
xaviersobasedDouble Whammy (2025) [Single]male vocalist, repetitive, surreal, urban, playful really warm feelings. love his voice and just how great he sounds on this. some amazing lines. feels like pure fun you can hear in the waveform everyones smiles making this. i do wish the beat was louder tho 3.5 | |
W&WOIIA OIIA (Spinning Cat) (2025) [Single]humorous, energetic, sampling, repetitive, internet the snippet collage on youtube is much better, but this is still good. im not crazy about the melodic part though. guess im just biased towards the darker sound of this kind of psy 3 | |
Humanity's Last BreathAshen (2023)Downtempo Deathcore, Thall, Djent heavy, uncommon time signatures, atmospheric, dense, apocalyptic definitely a step up from valde, a bit closer to their thall roots, but its still just run of the mill deathcore for the most part. some nifty little guitar parts but nothing memorable really 3 | |
MeshuggahNothing (2002)mechanical, heavy, aggressive, rhythmic, repetitive decided to listen to this since id never heard the full original before and i wanted to bump some nothing anyway. definitely the best part of this is the drums. unfortunately (and i still dont understand why they did this) for 2006 they used an ekit. it sounds fine and is still the preferred version of this album for me but it is sad how much of the personality the drums lose! 4 still tho | |
Humanity's Last BreathVälde (2021)Deathcore, Downtempo Deathcore, Thall dissonant, heavy, male vocalist, dark, ominous no class today cuz its mlk day and i dont have work until 5. it was nice to just chill at home all day. well we did go to the gym in the morning. trying to get that routine going again. i spent the day reading and playing nuclear throne on and off. really disappointing, but the cover art kind of spoiled that for me lol. its not even that its bad, but its so boring. a far cry from the exciting and super dark thall stuff they debuted with. even though Abyssal was also a step down it still had that inventive and unique edge to it that helped this act stand out. Välde lacks a lot of what makes their music worthwhile for me. sure theres some interesting stuff, notably some weird guitar choices that are cool, but it lacks the complexity and taste of their earlier stuff. feels like just another deathcore release, slightly more downtuned. i also hate how overproduced it all is. 2.5 | |
MeshuggahCatch Thirtythree (2005)Avant-Garde Metal, Groove Metal repetitive, mechanical, heavy, complex, rhythmic doing a lot of shugging this week. if anyone's curious, Destroy Erase Improve has more than just one or two good songs, upon closer inspection. never really gave this the proper praise it deserves. easily some of their best djent - maintains their early era experimentation and masterful djent-writing while outgrowing the lower fidelity production and mixing; this shit sounds fucking massive. i have to be honest though, once minds mirrors hits i start getting lost. i just really dont care about their atmospheric quiet clean guitar sections at all, and theres a non-trivial amount of that going on in the second half of this, not to mention the vocoder on minds mirrors that i *still* do not really like. for these reasons it still holds itself back from being one of their higher tier releases in my opinion, but its still pretty great. 3.5 | |
VildhjartaOmnislash (2009) [Additional release]heavy, angular, progressive, aggressive, dense really really good. im still not over the clean vocals those suck but this is some of the most exciting and fun djent ever. really dig the quality too, it adds a charming character to it. the youtube vid i listened from had some extra tracks which were instrumental. i dug those 3.5 | |
SpiritboxSingles Collection (2019) [EP]female vocalist, heavy, melodic, introspective, atmospheric saw this is bolded so i guess i will listen its okay. she has a good voice and i like the djent stuff but the drums sound really fake and gross, and she just does these really odd melodies to me that feel like they want to be so catchy but arent really. ig it kind of makes sense that its a bit misdirected since these are their first releases as a band. not bad in any sense though. 3 | |
2SlimeyReef (2025) [Single]Experimental Hip Hop, Terror Plugg Industrial Hip Hop, Video Game Music aquatic, sampling, humorous, playful, male vocalist ridiculous aquatic gore 808s the future of the ug is looking nuts hearing his voice on this beat is so funny like its just there 3.5 | |
BuilderSkyscraper (2003) [Single]ig the theme of early builder tracks is vocal chopping the most annoying samples ever. its hard to nail which mix is better, the alt mix takes out a lot of the sample but has less effective kicks and synths. 2.5 | |
An Evening at ElmwoodSecrets (2007) [EP]Melodic Metalcore, Mall Screamo aggressive, passionate, male vocalist, melodic, energetic more bae cute cover nothing too exciting except the second track has a good chorus. very quietly mastered 3 | |
Eyes Set to KillReach (2008)Melodic Metalcore, Post-Hardcore, Mall Screamo female vocalist, heavy, melodic, male vocalist, nocturnal kind of regular mode decent phxc but her vocals take it to the next level. very beautiful voice. sometimes a bit repetitive though, she gotta work on her lyrics. still i loved this thanks bae 3.5 | |
Humanity's Last BreathReanimated by Hate (2010) [EP]more of the same but a bit less intricate. i wonder why the comp version of these eps is listed as a reissue and not a compilation. ig cuz the title doesnt specify 3.5 | |
Humanity's Last BreathStructures Collapse (2011) [EP]apocalyptic, technical, male vocalist, aggressive, heavy real heavy stuff kinda brvtal. great guitars. some oeak core 3.5 | |
Humanity's Last BreathAbyssal (2019)Deathcore, Downtempo Deathcore, Thall heavy, male vocalist, aggressive, misanthropic, ominous i was def hating way too much on this my first go around. im not gonna try finding the original entry but it was something about it being boring and the flanged vocals. well its definitely not as exciting as their s/t, it certainly doesnt have the same super dark atmosphere, but it also isnt as heavy. but its still good. it still thalls! and ive come around on the flanged vocals. they are quite evil sounding. theyre a unique addition to their sound 3 | |
BuilderDevil's Doll (2004) [Single]played a show. we only played one song. i think our set was 12 minutes. people seemed to like us. i would have stayed longer but i was tired and hungry so i went home. very boring stuff. lacks the expansive structure that tracks like Demo and Rage have (it feels like we're just swapping through verses and choruses) and doesnt have any memorable or ecstatic synth lines that i need from hardstyle. the vocal sample is irritating. 2.5 | |
supersheepD R E A M W A L K E R PROD SUPERSHEEP METROBOOMIN FAUST AUTECHRE XAVIERSOBASED YAYAYI & RYOJI IKEDA (2025) [Single]kind of just a boring loop that evolves very little over its quite lengthy runtime. im sure theres a universe where this is good 2.5 | |
ReflectionsSilhouette (2021) [EP]heavy, dissonant, chaotic, ominous, rhythmic thall dealer slid me this. instrumentals are great real fat heavy stuff good dark atmosphere but being able to parse any of these lyrics is a curse. some gay ass shitわ 3 | |
VildhjartaThousands of Evils (2013) [EP]Djent, Thall, Progressive Metal sombre, dark, melancholic, aggressive, dissonant been in kind of a thall mood lately. i forgot that ive never heard any of their non album stuffs. i like it. bar the second track with the horrendous clean vocals the whole thing is pretty good. lots of really heavy bits; amazing guitars i literally cant stop turning it up. its not as theatrically epic as their album stuff which i actually kind of appreciate. its got a nice brevity to it. 3.5 | |
Ma (2019)gfs friend came over. we were supposed to watch Heretic but its like 20$ to rent so we picked this instead since its one of her fav movies of all time. we both thought it was pretty silly. there was like a handful of weird split diopter shots that felt so out of place in a very hulu-looking movie. the premise is really dumb. at the end it gets kinda saw and theres honestly this one really really gross trap that was fucked up as fuck. lots of fun jokes were had. n/a | |
BuilderHardbeat Market (2006) [Single]fun stuff. i wish i got a little more out of the synth lines but theyre fine. both mixes are worth listening to 3.5 | |
Tom MacDonaldEverybody Needs Me (2024) [Single]Conscious Hip Hop, Ragga, Trap political, male vocalist, humorous, conservatism the vocal melody in the chorus is kind of awesome. according to patricia taxxon, the n word bait is not unique to this song, which kind of takes away from its impact or wittiness. cover goes stupid 2.5 | |
MFGProject Genesis (1998)heavy, repetitive, surreal, sampling, nocturnal good goa. very classic sounding dark stuff. melts my mind away 3.5 | |
line today feels like a boulder | |
Silent HorrorNemesis (2007)this was really cool. some real nice intense sections, but it feels like theres some mysterious forces not letting me give it a 3.5... ill have to revisit and reconsider at another date... 3 | |
InfandousRotting Decaying Festering (2007)found this through some logo thing on reddit. its cool stuff. i like how grindy it is. the riff at the end of the second track is reallg awesome 3 | |
AntagonAmnesia (2011)back in the gym today for the first time since like last october or smth. cool dark aura 68 funy how jts organized by bpm lol. wish more happened tho 3 | |
LeaFNano Death!!!!! (2013) [Single]heavy, female vocalist, sampling, energetic, chaotic really fun lol. i forgot about this song. probably the most well made lolicore song ever. 3.5 | |
LeaFCalamity Fortune (2013) [Single]Breakcore, Video Game Music, Glitch instrumental, playful, lush, energetic, chaotic amazing how little attention this has here. still holds up so well all these years later. i remember being excited about the extended version but it just does not feel the same as the classic. such a euphoric climax. very intricate. always healing 4.5 | |
BiogenesisHarmonic Science (2008)this is the second album ive heard today whose first track narrates its own progression/production. weird. good atmosphere and cool little noises. 3 | |
EticTouchups (2004)irritatingly boring. it feels really hard to hate on psytrance because theres a lot of room and opportunities to make something at least interesting, so its kind of impressive that for over an hour of runtime not a single idea presented here is worth anything. 2 | |
Venetian SnaresMoonglow / This Bitter Earth (2004) [Single]Drum and Bass, Drumfunk, Breakcore, Avant-Garde Jazz uncommon time signatures, energetic, surreal, technical, sampling ill be the first guy to say it i liked the second track more than the first. this is cool stuff tho interesting side of vs 3 | |
DossDoss [white vinyl] (2014) [EP]Vocal Trance, Progressive Breaks, Downtempo ethereal, soft, soothing, lush, rhythmic softpretty is really nice. i love what that one user said about it being weirdly queer (i dont care if you put it on) and its so true. here tonight is also cool. the other two tracks i could live without 3 | |
Various ArtistsCross-Dimensional Contamination (2012)Speedcore, Hi-Tech Psytrance, Industrial Hardcore noisy, dark, psychedelic, progressive, atmospheric way too fucking long and not worth it. theres definitely enough good material here to make a cohesive and exciting comp but as it stands now its just too much slop. somehow manages to be so boring for so many songs 2.5 | |
Various ArtistsTransistance 3 (1999) [Compilation]sampling, party, punchy, energetic, melodic cool. been a minute since ive heard any nitzhonot. very uplifting sounds. sometimes the kicks sounded like hardstyle esque 3 | |
UXUltimate Experience (1997)rhythmic, sampling, hypnotic, mechanical, psychedelic good head bumpin. forgot when i saved this or where i found it. some tracks kinda boring 3 | |
Jimmy EdgarLive at Appleville (2020) [Video]more taylor this was pretty cool. massively cohesive - doesnt even feel like a dj mix if you dont know any of the tracks. very locked in vibe and atmosphere, flawless transitions, mixgoals for sure. great stuff 3.5 | |
easyFunDeep Trouble (2015) [EP]playful, summer, dense, party, female vocalist thanks grrentop laplander one of the best songd to come out of pc ever best vocals lovely little arrangement super fucking fun. the other two are good but dont stand out much in my mind 3.5 | |
Living WallA Truly Ruinous Plane (2025)is it good? sure. was it worth the almost decade long wait? ... living wall follows up two of the most exciting and skullfucking gorenoise demos of all time with a cybergrind brutal death metal full length. i like the drums (though they start to feel like they thin out as it goes - maybe i was just getting used to them) and the very formless tracks (but they dont feel free, which is interesting) but this feels so unremarkable its puzzling to say the least why it was released under this name so many years after its heyday. 3 | |
Bodhisattva 13:20Equations (2009)as up-my-alley as it might sound i think the entire math themed psytrance shitわ is so corny and dumb. feels like throwing an astronaut a space themed party and the cake says Rocketship. the musics fine though. good consistent atmosphere and solid textures. doesnt do too much to stand out but its a fun listen 3 | |
Infect InsectArcanum (2020)insane mind melting stuff. very very close to flashcore territory. its a bit long winded wouldve worked better as like a 4 track ep of the best ones but its still awesome as fucj 3.5 | |
Koxbox[Life is....] (1997) [Single]the first two tracks are amazing. really warping. the last one im not so crazy about but its still good 3.5 | |
1200 MicrogramsA Trip Inside the Outside (2013) [EP]its fine. kind of boring at times but theres nothing bad about it. i like some synths 3 | |
@Steezo X @ThraxLuh Gritz (2024) [Single]sampling, rhythmic very very weird sounding. its cool, but again im just not a huge fan of jersey tracks like this. maybe if i heard it on massive speakers it would be fire as fuck 3 | |
Various ArtistsSpiritual Science (2012) [Compilation]easily one of the best psytrance comps ive heard. immaculate selection of tracks, feels really cohesive. lots of highlights; gonna be digging through these artists for a while 4 | |
@hydroboiyo x @ollyRemyboyz (2024) [Single]repetitive, sampling, nocturnal, urban, party the mixing is fire but im not huge on these kinds of jersey songs. good sample chopping 3 | |
HallucinogenThe Lone Deranger (1997)energetic, nocturnal, mysterious, rhythmic, playful just some good classick psy dancefloor heat. really locked in and consistent sound. second half > 3.5 | |
Mountainhead | |
IndraOld Skool (2011)probably the most dance music sounding trance ive ever heard, some real festival shitわ. really nice uplifting synths but the drops always feel so underwhelming. also mostly boring. boring day for trance music 2.5 | |
Eat StaticImplant (1994)Psybient, Acid Techno, Acid Trance, Ambient Dub repetitive, space, rhythmic, party, psychedelic cool ufo sounds in the first half but the ambient techno stuff is pretty boring. theres probably better 90s psy 2.5 | |
Broken ToyBroken Toy (2005)wanted to like this more, the cover is awesome, but its very boring. really mild midtempo psy with no real strong atmosphere, and i really didnt like the porn samples. 2.5 | |
Various ArtistsPoodle Scum (2010)psychedelic, instrumental decent darkpsy stuff. nothing stands out too much to me though. cute cover | |
Children of the DocImpossible Vortex / Creatures From Outerspace (1999) [Single]very interesting stuff, but it didnt strike me so intensely. i may need to relisten 3 | |
VibrasphereArchipelago (2006)Psybient, Ibiza Trance, Ambient Dub, Downtempo, Progressive Breaks, Acid Trance hypnotic, aquatic, warm, atmospheric, progressive my third time trying to listen to this. its definitely got vibe potential, but good lord are these songs boring. ill just stick to In Dub... 2.5 | |
Fatal DiscordInsania (2011)really fun, awesomeness. super exciting and crazy first half thats like totally dominated by forest style sounds, moves into more purely dark territory in the second. 3.5 | |
EticiTrance (2011) [Single]pretty boring. cant say i remember too much about either. fun cover tho lol 2.5 | |
ROSÉ & Bruno MarsAPT. (2024) [Single]Power Pop, Dance-Pop, Bubblegum, Funktronica playful, female vocalist, male vocalist, repetitive, alcohol its not a bad song, obviously the prechorus and chorus are good, bruno mars sounds great. i hate the stupid intro, and dont get me started on the airplane ass bridge. so annoying. this song also lacks a lot of subtlety and nuance that makes relistens more rewarding 3 | |
moon weird knot in my chest. admissions. i hope it actually snows. my heart feels upside down | |
PauseToy Machine (2010)getting some full on vibes lowkey but im not entirely sure. its pretty good, massive basslines and fun stuff, but im hesitant to give it a higher score. something in me is stopping me... if i continue to think about this in the coming days ill bump it 3 | |
XatrikInside Information (2007)on an amazing roll with psytrance today (this is why you look for psy on DISCOGS and not RYM!). super intense stuff, really wild. love the cover 3.5 | |
MindexCats on Air (2010)happiest psytrance known to man. so much fun, all over the placd and always engaging, gonna be revisiting hella fs 3.5 | |
Various ArtistsThe Dark Side of Goa (2006)its no Beyond Colour, but its still pretty good. lots of deliciously dark atmospheres and sinister synth work. however, Metallaxis' solo track here though is ridiculously difficult to get through, so many out of time elements, idek how that happens. weirdly though my fav has to be his other track here with Terminator. some real peak stuff 3.5 | |
The Troop wow, my second book this year, in the first week. really proud of myself for reading so much lately. killer premise (at first i was expecting Alien lol but its not) with lots of gorey and gruesome disturbing imagery (a huge amount of animal cruelty like a lot) and a very unique "antagonist"; i loved the interspersed news articles and courtroom transcripts, it kind of felt like reading an SCP that someone had fleshed a whole story from. but Cutter's writing kind of sucks. a lot. sort of. it seems to me that he has no idea how 14 year old boys talk, constantly referring to the "adults" and "grown ups", reflecting on santa? calling eachother jerkoids? felt like i was reading a parody at times. i also cannot stand the constant and honestly unnecessary italics emphasize every other damn word. i also thought that the characters were kind of boring but Cutter does his best to really flesh them out. newt is my favorite. i like him. so like, if you dont care about cheesy male writing and you can appreciate the gross horror then this may be the book for you 3 | |
Texas FaggottPetoman's Peflett (2000)energetic, psychedelic, quirky, surreal, chaotic this is actually insane. constant flow of ideas and 100% super exciting action. never a slow or dull moment. really inventive and fun, gotta listen to everything by them. one of my fav psy records as of recent 4 | |
AOADomegapeace (1999)Progressive Psytrance, Livetronica, Krautrock hypnotic, rhythmic, psychedelic, energetic, instrumental its cool but i dont think itll be on my mind much at all after this. interesting, the boredoms+ferraro comparisons hurt but i *do* get them unfortunately. 3 | |
Frequency SurferRespect (2003)Dark Psytrance, Forest Psytrance i was honestly going to give it a 3 but it was constantly surprising me, lots of great ideas. super fun breakbeat stuff in here too 3.5 |
Juno ReactorBeyond the Infinite (1996)Acid Trance, Psybient, Tribal House, Tech House, Tech Trance, Progressive Psytrance, Progressive House psychedelic, atmospheric, hypnotic, repetitive, tribal another batch of very competent goa. lots of intricate songs, lots of details, cool ideas, but it doesnt leave a lasting mark on me. recommended anyway though 3 | |
CoredycepsSonic Meditation (2013) [EP]cover is lol more of the same as magick but the ideas arent as developed. also gross beat detected 🚨🚨🚨 3 | |
CoredycepsMagick (2015)fuck yes! this is what i expect to hear when i see the tag "psycore". super fast manic evil craziness. really cool sound design and really nutty high energy tracks. the only thing i didnt like was that stupid fucking x files sample 3.5 | |
Rose Red FlechetteInutilis (2017)Speedcore, Dark Psytrance, Glitch expected way more but this is just like meandering halftime grooves. idk its cool and the sound design is nice but this isnt nearly as evil and epic as idve hoped for 3 | |
PsykovskyNa Ve Ka (2011)Hi-Tech Psytrance, Forest Psytrance psychedelic, avant-garde, dense, rhythmic, complex much more my speed. a lot more cohesive than budet, feels less like song parts haphazardly stitched together and more like this very unique kind of psytrance that wanders and shapeshifts overtime. as exciting as the tempo changes could be, i think its for the best that we left them behind. some cool melodic elements, and the vocaloids shitわ was awesome 3.5 | |
PsykovskyDa Budet (2009)psychedelic, chaotic, surreal, energetic, dense i kind of expected more, and im a bit disappointed with the bolded status of this. yeah its good its really weird and definitely exciting but... it kind of hurts seeing the unwavering praise for this as "the #1 trance album on rym!" because theres just like... so much better trance out there. its a case where the hype is purely because its the only trance release most people who rate it high have heard. shrug. whatever yeah its cool though but i think the flash and glitch tags are really misleading, especially the latter. i can definitely hear a lot of flashcore parallels - the synths in particular are very la peste reminiscent, as is the "aimless wandering" structure - but i dont think it concretely resembles anything flash. the songs feel like jagged frankensteins of ideas, the tempo changes make it feel like bits and pieces of other tracks were cut and glued together, but not in a good way? lots of satisfying sounds that jump around but go nowhere i guess. still, i appreciate its originality and vision. 3 | |
Juno ReactorBible of Dreams (1997)Tribal House, Psybient, Progressive Trance, EBM repetitive, rhythmic, tribal, nocturnal, cold i was really hating on this way too much my first listen. its actually quite competent, and its brimming with unique and cool ideas. its not my favorite goa, its a bit too corny sometimes (those electric guitars are so dumb) and slow but its by no means bad. 3 | |
Various ArtistsBit Music Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (2012) [Compilation]i only really liked clima-x's track. lots of really annoying songs here. not super worth it 2.5 | |
Ka-SolFairytale (2006)Dark Psytrance, Forest Psytrance, Full-On Psytrance psychedelic, hypnotic, instrumental, repetitive, ethereal forest friday came a day late i guess. strong opening track, but this gets more and more mediocre as it goes. still a recommended listen for anyone curious about this kind of stuff, but i probably wont be thinking much about it. 3 | |
Pink E SwearPink E Swear (2019) [Bootleg / Unauthorized]female vocalist, mellow, longing, playful, energetic about what i expected. the only thing close to stay with me is the snippet track. they should drop that 3 | |
goreshitthe incubus mark/pulse of awakening (2009) [EP]Breakcore, Industrial Hardcore, Gabber sampling, dark, repetitive random impulse listen while i broke down truck. his breaks are so boring sometimes. 2.5 | |
Negative Space growing up is a confusing purple haze of sex, drugs, summer, pleasure, blood, smoking, cumming, self harm, school, texts, bikes, friends, suicide, forums and abuse. every day is the worst thing ever and no one cares. aside from some questionable pop culture references, i cannot stress enough how almost flawless of a read this feels like. while rocky at first, the constantly swapping narration is really cool and it lets the scenes paint themselves without needless exposition or scene setting. i love love love the writing style, actually so inspiring how fucked up and alien these kids describe their world, like they dont even live in reality. everything is numb but also hurts all of the time. i really loved exploring the characters. its beautiful how theres no sexuality barriers in this world, like they just feel desire for people, it doesnt matter who you are as long as our souls line up. i loved the whole religious arc that sprouted in the last half. really unique vision, stellar execution. american identity 4.5 | |
XenomorphQlippoth (2003)was expecting a lot more from the "evilest psytrance around" but its really just dark vibes on some regular feeling goa. didnt feel too strongly about it 3 | |
Various ArtistsGoa-Head Vol. 4 (1997) [Compilation]not sure what came over me but im in a goa mood. the old bandcamp for these got nuked, and if there was somehow still any concern about the legitimacy of the uploads, they have been reuploaded to "goaheadvol.bandcamp.com" lol strong opening handful of tracks, but mostly run of the mill goa stuff. enjoyable 3 | |
AkamushiLolicore Piano Concert (2011)thought this would be kind of interesting, the concept has potential, i didnt even hate the first few tracks, but its just like so boring and very clearly someones first week in a daw. 2.5 | |
Yuri Yum YumOhayou Gozaimasu (2009)cute cover but its just more actual garbage. i guess its a bit charming 2.5 | |
أنا أكره الموز [I Hate Bananas]صوت المستقبل [The Future Sound] (2024)noisy actually kind of compelling but its a bit one dimensional and doesn't need to be an hour. can only hope and pray this project continues to drop 🙏 3 | |
Preschool Tea Party MassacreSmokin' at the Gas Station (2003) [EP]silly and stupid 2.5 | |
Pink E SwearStay With Me (2011) [Single]Teen Pop, Electropop, Contemporary R&B Contemporary R&B, Synthpop, Electro Hop, Dance-Pop, Freestyle love, female vocalist, soft, romantic, melodic not sure where i saw this but glad i did. feels so weird liking this but its undeniably great. really intricate vocal work, especially at the end. lovely production 3.5 | |
LolishitMass Naked Child Events (2009)Breakcore, Plunderphonics, Noise the title is the only notable thing. i assume the cover is a loli ripe reference? 2 | |
Bloody Vomit BukkakeKojiki II: Le Otto Oyashima (2009)pretty ridiculously awful. i wonder how its possible to even make something like this and release it. its a miracle anyone at all archives this stuff, im eternally grateful 1.5 | |
goreshitnineties rave retrospective volume 2 (2012) [EP]rhythmic, sampling, manic, energetic beautiful cover, i regret not snagging the shirt when it dropped but also this is mid as fuck. just really boring, not the kind of music i like him for 2.5 | |
LolishitDrugs and Cake (2009) [EP]noisy, mechanical, infernal, rhythmic, sampling theres something weird and addictive about these really early lolicore releases that have 0 merit to them. its just stupid but it feels slightly warm. 2.5 | |
Jane RemoverJRJRJR (2025) [Single]Digicore, Rage, Experimental Hip Hop Industrial Hip Hop, Dark Plugg, Emo Rap noisy, aggressive, nocturnal, raw, manic just nothing about this stands out to me at all. its whatever. dont like her voice/delivery. not sure why people are saying shes reinventing rage 2.5 | |
ArtifaktThe Magus (2008)saw this digging through another users ratings. looked so dumb. glad i gave it a chance. really really obtuse psytrance... most of the time? the drums and some instruments feel so Justice inspired (so weird to say i know) - in that way its sometimes got this very weird Dance feel to it? but theres lots of weird choices elsewhere. lots of buzzing synths and effects that find some weird middle ground between being futuristic and artificial and very natural and bubbling, organic. its got a very weird warmth radiating off of it. found myself dancing a lot 3.5 | |
Various ArtistsYap! (2015) [EP]been digging through my old music collections from when i was younger. i really loved laur's track on this when i was a kid, i was surprised to see it actually had an album to call home, so i checked this out while playing some nuclear throne. the first two tracks are actually the same artist. theyre okay. i wish they were more dense, and had a stronger identity. i remember nothing from hagerrrs or dj kaza's other than the fact that i didnt hate them. laur's track stands out ad the only one that really embraces any elements of speedcore. such an amazing song 3 | |
ScannersLove to Hate You (1996)female vocalist, longing, party, rhythmic, melodic doing chores. i didnt realize how many songs i actually knew off of this - tell it to my heart, the promise is a cover? or the populaf audio covered this, its my life - so weird that none of these are even their most streamed songs on spotify either, not even on marian's page. the whole thing is fine, but it leans way harder into the american-dance-pop-hit songs like the ones i mentioned rather than the really cute eurodance sound from pure and gun shy that i like them for. 3 | |
mirrormageI Dont Feel the Same Anymore. (2023)more emotionally charged which is nice. always lovely charming energy from these amateur little bandcamp breakcore expressions. idk. fun 3 | |
LolishitLucky Star (2012) [EP]just going through the konata list. the concept of this release is so strange - just usual lolishit dumbass speedcore stuff but just with long dialogue clips from the show playing on top. its kind of cool though. more warmth, i was chuckling at some of the clips. i want to rewatch the show eventually. 3 | |
eat_shoesa not so perfect collection of nonsense (2024)female vocalist, sampling, humorous, playful, aggressive our first 2025 entry. done doing months in these, from now on you'll just have to GUESS! silly little kuso nonsense. feels warm. the project name makes me think this is a shoebill situation, no? 3 | |
