Landed/Megafuckers
Landed/Megafuckers
7" Vinyl - Rock
"Includes the politically charged head banger "Osama Oxy Contin". If you've never heard Landed before, you should kick your own ass. This is some of the heaviest and most abrasive shit on the planet." |

Bipolar Bear
Mountain Dewd
CD - Rock
"Bipolar Bear is not likely a commentary on the burgeoning power of the pharmaceutical industry, nor is it a cry out against the scarcity of an endangered species. This becomes evident when the band describes itself as sounding “like old people sex.” With politically lewd song titles such as “Gaza Strip Club,” you have to wonder what you’re getting yourself into. The truth is - it’s difficult to see anything overtly subversive through all the kitsch, especially when already distorted vocals are overpowered by unrelenting funk metal. Maybe that’s the point. By directing the listener towards the ludicrous, the band is telling us to stop trying so hard to make sense." |

Factums
Spells and Charms
CD - Rock
"Seattle’s Factums have been knocking around for a few years now, with a scattered trail of releases left along the way that document the trio’s feet-first plunge into the darkest recesses of modern noise, post-Kraut synths, and a distinctly intergenerational punk squall. While the group’s members list both the Fruit Bats and the Intelligence as former stomping grounds, in sound and style they really only compare to the latter, and even then with a grimmer mindset and spare approach that makes the Intelligence’s few records seem like breezy walks in a pretty overpopulated park." |
