This Toilet Tuesday (1/13/26)
O Sentient Shidder, O Unblessed Bowl, retreat thy rimfrost that my own rim shalt be given succor. This week, we’ve got Blade, Bath & Beyond, finish your books before you die-core, and lunar learning. It’s another li’l release week, but they can’t all be coiled behemoths! As always, let us know what we missed in the comments.
Putridarium – Natvm Ad Mortem (Night Terror Records) [Death/Doom]
Soooooie! Putridarium are calling all hogs to the trough with Natvm Ad Mortem, an EP as stinky as ’26 has been so far. Us piggies love our OSDM, and when the slop contains healthy servings of stately double kick, influences from Auroch to crust punk, and tones best described as “feculent,” we are helpless but to masticate the morsels placed before us. (Even Cianide‘s Mike Perun felt compelled to join the stable for “Death Metal Warriors,” the second, unreleased track from Natvum Ad Mortem). Old MacDonald had a body farm… -Roldy
