TRIAC.

Wicked-chaotic grindcore from Charm City (Baltimore) MD that strays from the norm.
While they grind like fucking madmen, they also throw some sick fucking leads out there, and the vocals are cold and painful - so soothing!

If you dig the painful strains of Hirudinea, Watchmaker, Raw Radar War, Starkweather - shit like that - well then, you NEED to check these guys out.
Definitely pick up their DEAD HOUSE DREAMING CD - it really hits the spot!

Enjoy this live set from 2005 - I made you some cover art as well.

KILLDOZER.

Here's a VERY recent "live-in-the-studio" set from Killdozer.
Unlike many bands that get back together many years after the fact, they DO NOT suck!

See for yourself...

OXBOW.

Shortly before the Bay Area's "Kings of Uneasy" set out to record "The Narcotic Story", Eugene & Niko set out on a select-dates tour of the U.S. playing as a duo, the set consisting of favorites of theirs throughout their enitre catalog, as well as some obscure covers.

Here's Oxbow live in the studios of WFMU in Jersey City, NJ performing & being interviewed.

(Enoyable as well as unique, to say the least)...

IMPULSE MANSLAUGHTER.

Awesome hardcore/crossover heshers from Chicago.

Saw these dudes many times as a young teen; always a powerful set.
Still give this a spin now and then and it brings back good memories.
I'd have to say I dig this "sound of Chicago" much more than any of the Naked Raygun-styled stuff or the Big Black/Touch and Go action. Not that I don't like any of that stuff it's just that I guess I just prefer loud, frantic, and heavy more than angular and catchy...

D/L Impulse Manslaughter - Live at WFMU 1993 right here.

Now playing: Incantation - Descend Seraphic Irreverance

LIFE'S BLOOD.

Solid, genuine hardcore from one of the best of the genre - not just NYHC - but the whole genre.
Life's Blood (if they were still around) would kick most of "the scene(s)" collective ass with their stripped down meat-and-potatoes style of hardcore.

D/L Life's Blood live on WFMU in March of 1988 right here.

Hard to believe this is from 19 years ago...
