This Toilet Tuesday (11/10/20)
It’s Toilet Tuesday: time to shovel music into your ears until your brain melts. I’ve only got one highlight for you today- I threw this list together a bit quicker than normal, only stopped to listen to the one band- but the overall quality of tunes seems to be above average this week. Not a lot of names I recognize, but there are definitely some hidden gems in the list down below. Take a listen and let us know what you’re digging.
In Malice’s Wake – The Blindness of Faith (Independent) [Thrash]
Listen to “The Blindness of Faith,” “Graven Image”
Were I to choose one word to describe In Malice’s Wake, it would be “vicious.” The tunes up for listening right now are fast and violent- as one would reasonably expect of thrash- but the combination of ragged vocals, wicked melody, and extremely tight performance are what really make this good. It’s a little black, a little death, but all rage. 11/13/20 (Spear)
