O Radiant Rim, O Plungèd Prince, drain the waste from our bodies into your accommodating commode. This week we’ve got dino-core, aged epithelium, and curvy blade black metal. The Bowl is filled to the brim this time around, so make sure to bring extra oxygen as you descend into the abyss. As always, let us know what we missed in the comments!

Обрій – Йосип (Neformat Family) [Death / Hardcore]

Йосип‘s HM-2-tinged hardcore recounts the atrocities committed in Stalin’s forced labor camps; it’s only fitting that the music is bare bones, stripped of everything but a spark of life. Mykola Maha’s vocals scrape like gravel across these tracks as Bolt Thrower tank tread riffs flatten us face-down in the mud. Обрій has always strived for a sound that sticks to listeners like a coat of grime, and the available songs are no exception; between the scuzzy tremolos and dread-inducing artwork, there’s an accumulation of sonic filth akin to Vastum that captivates through disgust. -Roldy
