Some of my new horrible music - Mixed/Mastered by MDV

Roughly as cheerful as an Irreversible, Martyrs and Funny Games triple bill.

From a split that comes out soon but we've stuck three of the six tracks up on bandcamp in advance. Mark did a swish job and is a marvelous character to work with.

EDIT: If folks are at all interested it's all recorded by me in my house in Pro Tools. Mostly with Guitar Rig 3 and a Parker Fly Classic with a Ceramic Warpig bridge. There's also a stock '08 Les Paul Standard and a Blackmachine B2 with Painkillers on one of the tracks there.

My pleasure duder, likewise - well engineered, played and fun to work with (and on).

Theres a tremendous amount going on in these songs; very well composed (doubly so since the complexity doesnt get in the way of, in fact, works in aid of the intended coarse and hellish vibe), I highly recommend a listen for those that like the most brutal end of things. I know youre out there.

[AndyR]

Well, I entered with fear and trepidation... But I came out the other side with no obvious injuries :lol:

I'm never going to listen to this kind of stuff with any regularity, but I was well impressed. Really glad I've heard some of your stuff now.

And yeah, there is a huge amount going on in the arrangements. Like MDV says, it doesn't get in the way but aids it all.  It's almost as if hearing the musical complexity - which I understood - got me into hearing and appreciating each track as a whole.

Nice one :D

[Ashahalasin]

I enjoyed this thoroughly more than I anticipated. This is excellent stuff.

A++ would listen to again.

Cheers chaps. Appreciate it.

[MrBump]

Tried listening, but the wife came back from the gym and glared at me.

Will check it out later, what little I heard has me in the AndyR camp - appreciative, but it will never set my world on fire.

Just out of interested, and fully aware of my ignorance, how would you describe that, genre-istically speaking?

[nfe]

Dunno really. I suppose it's grindcore for the most part. There's near as much black metal in there as there is grind, though.

[HTH AMPS]

Love it, but would've liked more weight in the kick drums - it doesn't PUNCH like I expect when played loud.

[BlankPlank]

Brilliant stuff mate, but I've known this for a long time anyways :)
