THE BARFOS "Crash Your Show"
(Cesspool Records) 1999
This is funny grindnoise from one of the members of GODSTOMPER. Actually this band existed before GODSTOMPER and used half their crew! These are live outtakes from various parties where THE BARFOS would "crash the show" and just set up/start playing without permission! I was surprised to hear "real" sonx (though the quality is muddy) that were pretty catchy ultrafast hardcore! Has a shocking HERESY touch to it that I think was unintentional. Only 200 pressed...collector scum will sweat this out! Not sure of prices...but knowing Paul (head cheese at Cesspool) he'd probably just give one to you.

No song titles...they just blast away in a blur of noise!

BIRDFLESH "Trip to the grave"
(Burning death records) 1998 (Blue vinyl)
Argh! Birdflesh is really amazing! Fresh, funny, freaky, grinding, thrashy and fast... They remind me of Macabre, Terrorizer, Impetigo or Repulsion(a Repulsion cover features on this ep as bonus track!) with the big sound of Nasum! But of course they have their own orginal personality in music and lyrics!!! They are from Sweden, they like to play very loud, with predominant hardcory drums rythms, and a few blastbeats, some raw vocals, some screamy backing vox, tons of dirty guitar riffs; Sound on this ep is very clear, and it's a real pleasure listening to it; But the best thing about Birdflesh is their sense of humour; The cover is funny, the lyrics are frenzy and extremely deranged; and... let me quote some lines: "I was killed on a Birdflesh concert, my back was cut off in the pit, so my parents put me in a grave, but i wanted to mosh... I am metal to the bones, and bones are all that is left, but a true metal freak never dies, Manowar and I are friends... He is the brutal corpse, of jeans and leather and gore, he will never rest in peace, and he will never listen to sleaze" hehe... The lyrics put together with the crazy music really makes it awesome! Lyrics are printed, there's a great blue vinyl and the cover is very well designed, and of very good quality! As well I love their logo! If you're into fun, old style thrashy grindcore.... Please get this great 7"ep now! email Birdflesh: birdflesh@hotmail.com or birdflesh666@hotmail.com visit their website: http://home9.swipnet.se/~w-92019 Honestly it's one of the most exciting bands on the scene I know!

BLOOD "Spittle red of blood"
(Iron records) 1994 (Green vinyl)
No compromise! BLOOD plays 4 tracks of pure grinding pagan brutal death metal. Catchy, reasonably fast, with tight drums, deadly growls and low guitars. No lyrics sheet, but great cover artwork and beautiful green vinyl. One terrible single!

1)Slumber of terror 2)Euthanastic inclination 3)Under the seal 4)Christian holocaust

BLOOD/INHUME split
1998
BLOOD
Brutal death metal legend Blood plays 2 loud studio songs: in the vein of the latest releases: brutal death!!! Heavy as hell!!! Still boring lyrics... anyway; great music!

1)Separation 2)Crucify believes
INHUME 
Inhume from Holland comes back with 3 tracks of brutal death/grind... These are songs taken from their second demo... except "4 months below" which is an unrealeased one I think... One perfect release: tight, fast, brutal, catchy... Inhume is a promising grind/death band so remember their name!

1)Airplane crash 2)Gargling guts 3)4 months below
