Terrorizer - World Downfall



This was the first album by these legendary grindcore godfather - Terrorizer, originally released under Earache Recs. in 1989, and by the time it has been re-released in 1995 under the same label. "World Downfall" kind of sounds like Napalm Death, circa 1987 (the "Scum" era), except these songs are longer and David's vocals are much more constipated. This record is one long, ultra-intense, giga-heavy, super fast maelstrom composed of walls of crushing guitar noise and constant, speed of light blast beats. Contains 16 tracks which all are full filled with anger about everything that goes horribly wrong in this missreable planet this album was considered as one of the best grindcore album all the time. This is grindcore with some serious f*ckin riffs and blast beats galore. Speaking of the those, it's pretty amazing that they use it frequently but it still seems like they're placed perfectly in the songs and it just feels awesome. These guys were able to do on this record what Napalm Death were not on their first two records, which was harness the insane brutality more accurately.
And in 2006, Terrorizer been release their second full lenght album entitled : "Darker Days Ahead", but unfortunatelly a week after the album released, Jesse Pintado, The former member and also the guitarist, dead because his complications and diabetes.

Carcass - Reek of Putrefaction



This was the first full length album from these british Grindcore living legend in 1995 released under Earache Recs. Consist of 20 fast and in your face brutal tracks, this album was a truly ferocious metal masterpiece. By the time, it was re-released in 2008 under the same label. Carcass can be consider as the inventors, with this album, of the forensic, gore, medical and autopsies lyrics; and add the collages of rotten limbs, tongues, heads and decaying corpses on the covers of the first two albums. The drumming has excellent production and Ken Owen does a brilliant job. The vocals are probably the most disgusting part of the album. As gutteral as you can get, they belt out the gore lyrics at lightning speeds.
Repulsion are rightly considered the true originators of grindcore and for good reason, but in 1987 three young Brits took their influence and made things just a bit faster, a bit gorier and ultimately even more brutal, if that were possible. Early Carcass such as this is not death metal-it's grindcore which makes it more akin to punk, hardcore, and crust. Well, grindcore is a style that is recognized not for the musical skills or for being technical. Fast-blazing drums, gutural voices, and a guitar that sounds like Tv with no signal.
This was the masterpiece by the living legend, if you are at all into gore or death metal, you need to own this album.

Smells Like Bleach - A Punk Tribute To Nirvana



This tribute CD album to Nirvana was released by Cleopatra Recs. in 2001. Everyone from Charlie Hunter to Tori Amos has interpreted Nirvana's iconoclastic anthems, but none of them has captured Nirvana's anarchic power. Contains 12 tracks which all are covered by leading punk bands, some of the bands on here were bands which Kurt Cobain was heavily influenced by. The Vibrators cover is too damn close to the original version, Flipper might as well have done one of their own songs because they sound just like Scentless Apprentice, and DOA sound more toungue-in-cheek than reverent. If you like Nirvana and want to hear Classic punk bands do Nirvana covers the way they want to, find this album.

Youth Of Today - Break Down The Walls



It was the first full length studio album by these crucial old school hardcore straight edge legend - Youth Of Today. This "Break Down The Walls" LP originally released in 1987 under Wishingwell Recs. and by the time was re-released by Reveleation Recs. in 1997. This album contains 13 greats straight ahead hardcore tracks with aggressive, honest and positive lyrics. Very fast songs that full filled with emotion and everything being played sounded fast, simple loud and raw.
What really brings out sense of hardcore, at least for me, are Ray Cappo's vocals. They're so intense, so desperate and so urgent. That was hardcore used to be completely based on- a need for change, a positive philosophy. At the end, Youth Of Today with this "Break Down The Walls" LP are a legendary old school hardcore band with Ray Cappo on vocal, a must for anyone who listens to HC.

Suffocation - Souls To Deny



This was the 4th full length studio album by these Death Metal leading band - Suffocation that was released by Relapse Records in April 2004. Contains 8 tracks which all are a prove that It's a true-to-form return for death metal's kings of brutality after a very long waiting since their previous album, "Pierced from Within " in 1995. Suffocation's music is exactly how it's name implies: Suffocating. The guitars have so much low end it sometimes feels like you're wading through mud listening to them. There are very few moments on this album where you don't feel as if the band isn't playing as intensely as they possibly can. This album feature awesome drumming from one of death metal's finest drummers-Mike Smith. His drum fills and double bass work never gets boring,t he guitar riffs and leads still sound original, and vokillist Frank Mullen has one of the best growls in the genre,deep and throaty from the bowels of hell. The production is perfectly clean, the instruments sound incredible, and the vocals sound perfect also the mixing and mastering is incredible , The artwork is incredible, everything that a Death Metal should give. What more can we say? Just bang your head then..
