Coroner – Punishment for Decadence [ADB]

This tape is on Noise/Futurist records, and it was originally released in 1988. The lead singer sounds like Dave Mustaine (Megadeth) and Scott Ian (Anthrax) mixed together. The guitar riffs sound like the Air Guitar riffs from the Bill and Ted movies. The beginning of the tape is kinda boring, but the tape starts sounding a lot better during the middle. This was a great find at NRM in the…

Complier – Bleeding Musiz [ADB]

Complier-Bleeding Musiz This was self released in 1999 with 12 songs. This is one of the definatly hardest types of music to put a genre with .As his name implies, Compiler compiles his tracks with use of media altering software and drum machines. Some of his weapons are Cool Edit Pro, Audioforge, Cakewalk, and Hammerhead. These excellent programs, along with a serious demented mind, make a hell of a good…

Chaos UK – The Chipping Sodbury Bonfire Tapes [ADB]

12 songs released in 1998 by Creative Man Records.Breakneck UK Punk in the style of the Exploited, Sex Pistols, or Crass. There is very great drumming and vocals, which are typical pissed off Brit. They have just really good music that would be perfect to mosh to. The drummer should be revered by other drummers, because of the great sound he produces, and his speedy beat.”Kill” is the big Sex…

By Divine Right – Bless This Mess [ADB]

It was released in 1999 on Nettwerk records, and it had 13 songs. It cost me nothing. They are Canadian power-pop with a 70’s feel, like Sloan. They are a 4 piece band that have toured with such big bands like the Tragically Hip. BDR play excellent guitars with well written songs and catchy hooks. BDR strays away from the normal style of guitar playing, adding all sorts of effects…

The Buford Highway – Instant Sound [ADB]

Wow this is a fucked up tape. Noises, reversed records, sped up records, different instruments at different speeds, it has everything . Except for song breaks. I had no clue which song was which on the tape, so i listened very very closely to the tape. Its ok for a tape of total noise, and that makes it a good industrial tape, which i don’t think there are many of…

 This album is an awesome example of amazing guitar work. The band features Dave Hanacek on Guitar, and ex- Lagwagon guitarist Shawn Dewey on Vox.

This album is their sophomore effort, and it sounds greats. It has typical above average punk bass and…

Boring Orgy – Freedom of Sleep [ADB]

This album is on Firebrand Records, was released in 1998, and has 17 songs. They are a really good sounding Old Punk/Hardcore band.For Instance “Battles and Underwear” is reminiscent of the Sex Pistols. They are a 3 piece band with Ryan Hurt on guitar and vocals, Brentt Liberation on drums and vocals, and Maybe Rioter on bass and backing vocals. BO has short songs combining with awesome structures to make…

Boulder – The Rage of It All [ADB]

Well thought out guitar riffs that sound extremely well by this metal band. The riffs have more of the 80s feel, and they are perfect to mosh to. Boulder’s vocals consist of screaming, and the drums are just average. The solos by the guitarist are really good as well. Excellent sounding classic thrash metal from these guys in Ohio. These guys are supposed to have an awesome live show. If…

Black Tape For A Blue Girl – This Lush Garden Within [ADB]

This is another great atmospheric album, but it does include vocals. The vocals are so great that it doesn’t matter, because this work is pure gold. This album has a wonderful calming effect, and it will appeal to the gothies, since BTFABG is a true gothy band. In fact, this album is so good i regularly listen to it. This is a feat for me because i have so many…

Nuclear Assault – Handle With Care [ADB]

This is plain West Coast Thrash Metal, circa 1989. Fast, but for a change somewhat intelligent. They even provide songs against racism and the American government killing the Indians. It is very hard and fast, and yet it means something. This is a mixture of old Exodus, Metallica, and Megadeth. This is on In- Effect Records, and i dont have a address for them. The album was created in the…
