#GrindayFriday this week is 2022 self titled LP by Seattle grind/powerviolence trio NURSER. They kinda remind me of Mastiff or Napalm or something like that. No frills, just grinding and violence: https://nurserdeath.bandcamp.com/album/nurser

Now playing yet another older death metal banger again, Mortiferum's 2021 LP, 'Preserved in Torment'. Easily one of my favorite death metal (or any metal) records ever. I've listened to this one a LOT.

For #GrindayFriday this week, some old style dark grind - they call it 'nightmare grindcore for the class war' and truly it is:

This is Seattle's SMEARING and their fantastic, intense new EP 'Acts of Service'. Great lyrics, riffs, drumming, some great dynamics. Lots to love here.

#ThursDeath this week is this great new EP 'Into the Flame of Fear' by Bellingham, Washington's MALDISDEUN. These guys just started in 2019 and have only one other release before this (an LP from 2023), but they REALLY have the OSDM sound and everything else down. Two very interesting, diverse, dynamic tracks of death metal here -- a band to watch.

This week's #GrindayFriday is the new '...Such is Life' EP by Seattle, Washington's IMPULSE NOISE. This is a grindy, dynamic bunch of songs - I really dig this one. Fast, heavy, quick - blink and you'll miss them. Not sure what a full length would sound like from these guys, but that would be wild-- hopefully eventually. I can see this one getting a bunch of play this year. πŸ”₯

Wild one for this week's #GrindayFriday - a trilogy of very brief records by Seattle, Washington's TONGUE BATH. This is 'fastcore' or punk-infused powerviolence and grind. Nothing gross here but some really extreme, cool stuff -- the powerviolence and speed but also some slower, riffy spots. Three albums, most songs only seconds, you can listen to all of these records in just a few minutes.

For this #GrindayFriday, something that came out just five years ago but should already be considered a classic. Seattle, Washington's CAUSTIC WOUND gave us this brutal, crushing riffy LP 'Death Posture' in 2020. They have a new one coming end of April-- they're a band to watch. Cropping the cover here, as it's a bit morbid, fair warning. Few songs are over or even reach two minutes long. I love albums that get to the point and don't give up til the end.

Been going through my favorite new metal EPs and demos from this year and I'm honestly surprised I haven't mentioned some of these bands yet for #ThursDeath.

This week we have Everett, Washington's SKELM. Their EP from this year, 'Death's Eternal Call' is so good. Crunchy, growly, brutal. And the RIFFAGE. All the stuff you want.
