The UK's MASTIFF just put out a new EP today, 'For All the Dead Dreams', so I have that #NowPlaying, and it's a great one, of course. I've seen Mastiff described as sludge, doom, or hardcore, but they're a cool mix of.. something crossover-y and I dig it a lot. There's breakdowns. Now THIS is how you do some heavy, brutal (but still melodic, riffy) shit. Behold:

For #GrindayFriday this week we have new powerviolence/grind EP 'Done In' by GIVE OVER from Leeds, UK. This is a brutal, wild, intense EP - there's cool riffs and breakdowns all over the place. I dig it. Been playing it pretty regularly the last few days.

For this week's #GrindayFriday, an intense, weird one that's been crawling (ha) under the radar, the new self titled LP from Northampton, UK's HIDEOUS CRAWLING ABOMINATION. Ten excellent tracks. A grinding, crunching, growling, brutal and riffy abomination indeed.

#GrindayFriday for this week is TRADING HANDS from the UK and their new EP 'I'm Going Out of My Mind, Does Anyone Want Anything?'

Trading Hands play a wild mix of powerviolence, grind & fastcore. This stuff is FAST, heavy, raw, tons of breakdowns. You can listen to this in no time at all. Blink and you might miss it. Weird, dynamic, I can't get enough. Easily one of my favorite EPs of ANY genre so far this year.

Okay, I have a killer one for #GrindayFriday this week. This just came out today, and I'll probably end up grabbing it for Bandcamp Friday. This is Bristol's BETRAYERS, and their great new EP 'Falling Through the Hourglass'. It RIPS. Kinda doomy and deathy in spots, too-- especially in the first song. Check it.
