Holy Goat

Fumist Coaltar LP

FUMIST is a supergroup based in Lyon, known for their seasoned members from HORDUR, CIVILIAN THROWER, LOVGUN, and OVERMARS. Their first album includes fourteen intense, D-beat-infused grindcore tracks with obligatory death metal slow sections that are sure to crush your head. The powerful drumming shines brightly on this album filled with nostalgic moments, creating a unique blend of grinding violence. Featuring both slow and fast movements, this album is a complete banger! Get your smoke on!

Haexler Talkshow 12″

Leipzig’s HAEXLER totally decimates with their hyper-aggressive Talkshow 12”. It ticks all the boxes for me: guitar riffs supercharged by dimed HM-2s, gnarly bass that sounds like a nasty gut-punch, tastefully over-the-top drumming, rabid vocals foaming at the mouth…it really is a solid powerviolence record that I can see myself coming back to, especially when I need my daily dose of that Swedish chainsaw sound.
