#MusicWomenWednesday this week is new LP 'Mil orquídeas en medio del desierto' from Tijuana, Mexico's HABAK. This is a STELLAR 'melodic crust' record that has great dynamics and sheer rage. I've been listening to it fairly regularly since it came out last week.

The way the first song builds from regular rock to searing punk is WILD. This one is a must-hear for fans of crust or even just punk in general.

Fair warning, this is a weird, gross one for #GrindayFriday (not that ALL bands I feature on GrindayFridays aren't weird and gross). GOEYCHIVO is a mincing powerviolence (read: goregrind, basically) band from Mexico. Heavy, bizarre, everything good grind should be. This is GoeyChivo's ridiculous LP 'Sed de Sangre Primitiva' from 2021.

A late #ThursDeath, as it's been an insane day. I've been compiling a 'grody metal' kind of playlist and Mexico's STENCHED is a crown jewel within it. Plus, they have one of the best band names of all time.

This EP of theirs 'Gorging on Mephitic Rot' from June of last year is solid bangers front to back. I've been listening to it all week. 6 tracks, 23 minutes. Whew. 🔥

Hope more STENCHED is on the way soon.
