This Toilet Tuesday (8/6/24)
A pile of new music landed on my doorstep in a steaming heap this morning, and I’m about to make it everyone’s problem. Especially yours. You know what you did. There is not enough time in the day for one person to listen to all this, so share your faves in the comments so we can skip the actual shit.
Feind – Ambulante Himamputation (Independent) [Deathgrind]
If you were planning on listening to only one weirdo deathgrind album this week… well, you should actually listen to two, because there’s also Houkago Grind Time coming out, and this new thing from Feind is insanely good. Our buddy Ken from AMG described it as “like if early Aborted wrote a grindy powerviolence record,” and I’m inclined to agree; toss some unhinged Killitorous-style tech in there and you’ll have a good idea of what you’re getting into. It’ll have you in and out in under 15 minutes, so you’ll have plenty of time to recuperate before also hitting that HGT. –Spear
