Re-enter the Womb 03:55 The split was only mentioned in the last post as it was uncomplete - Vipe side only. Keith was nice enough to take care of that, though, so now this one is also up in its entirety. …
Vipe, Cat Massacre (USA) - Control Force SPLIT (2010)
Tracklist: Vipe 1. Impostor 01:00 2. Joey, Johnny, Tommy, Dee Dee, Joel-Peter 01:12 3. Extinction Mastiff 01:21 4. Shove the White Teen Lamanites 01:21 5. I Got Shoved 00:28 6. Wuss 01:20 7.

Syntax (USA) - DEMO (2009)
Tracklist: 1. Expanded Universe 2. Rape Aesthetic 3. Elegy 4. Yinchorri Uprising 5. Evacuation Plan 6. Shattered Teeth (The Advantages of Disadvantage) 7. Empty Sky (Promise) 8. The Myth of Sisyphus 9. Throne (Instrumental) Syntax , as a band of Discordance Axis worshipers and general noise & speed enthusiasts, is another band that ought to have been posted on cephscope much, much earlier. Had someone played me, for example, 'Elegy' without letting me know about what I'm listening to, I'd probably ask something along the li…
ATOMÇK, PAUCITIES (Newport/Bristol & Chicago) - SPLIT 7'' (2010)
Tracklist: ATOMÇK 1. Finite Crisis 2. Dark Prism Strategy 3. Difference Maker 4. Invincible Phoenix Discharge 5. Copyright Carnage PAUCITIES 6: Tyrant Mania 7: Solitare (The tenth sub-level of mince-icide) I'm running much too late on this, and many other releases to take note of that were sent my way, but by now I'd hope that "better late than never" is cool in regard to grindcore. For some release-info: " ATOMÇK are based in Newport/Bristol- they began life as a ANb style diversion before aquiring the tub skills of Cz…
News
So hey, I guess I could've, maybe even should've written this one much earlier. Long story short - Cephalochromoscope ain't dead. But my computer's been in a coma for a while now - as has Orfee's scanner - and I've been quite busy with whatever I've been busy with. Some of the machines are finally resurrecting, though, so new posts are to be expected soon. And - for all those who sent me emails - replies to you, too. That's about it, really. ;) .karlo
antiétat (Croatia) - symbolic destruction DEMO (2011)
Rijeka, Croatia unpleasant grindviolence duo. The (new) name is a simplistic punk as fuck nod to common sense punk simplicity, while the sound is an ode to the Sound and the Fury and destruction in general. We're just restarting to play, so here's some older shit (presumably late 2009 to 2010) with a fairly extreme lo-fi anti-charm. Smash the symbols! (Mediafire)
Flourishing (USA) - A Momentary Sense of the Immediate World EP (2010)
Tracklist: 1. Harvesting 2. Fixture 3. Watching Sparrows 4. Feeling So At Ease 5. Snake Charmer Total playing time 16:33 Concerning the last few posts, I sure hope I'm doing The Path Less Traveled Records a favor rather than reducing their sales. Actually, with two of them I'm already covered, but this whole area sure is gray. In any case, just looking at the label's band roster proved to be an exciting experience (e.g. Body Hammer , Humanity Falls , and Flourishing here), so downright props to the project. Read the blog, too, ove…
Humanity Falls (USA) - Ordaining the Apocalypse (2010)
Tracklist: 1. No Room for Ingenuity 2. Prolonging the Inevitable 3. To Have or To Be? 4. The False Enmity 5. Denounced Manifestation 6. At the Temple of Everlasting Condemnation 7. Ordaining the Apocalypse 8. Immoral Abhorrence 9. Of Divine Nature Total playing time 31:15 Sponsored by laziness, I bring you this post. Well, at least in part, 'cause Humanity Falls is definitely a damn cool band that deserves some more attention + the means of quality recording / mixing / mastering / whatever the fuck. And I don't know why I swear so much…
Body Hammer (USA) - Jigoku (2009)
Tracklist: 1. Severe Aural Torture 2. The Bystander Effect 3. Direct Digital Drive 4. Blue Eyed Assassin 5. MPD Psycho 6. No Fucking Way 7. The Principles and Practices of Nihilism 8. Inherent Agoraphobia 9. Greatknife 10. It's Not Even Human, Shove it Back In 11. Red Pyramid 12. 29 Second Stairway 13. 2 Minute Stairway 14. The Square Root of 964 15. Deeper Into The Abyss 16. Jigoku 17. When Mental Anguish Exceeds The Physical Capability for Pain 18. Untitled Total playing time 34:28 A certain sort of sound may reflect off Japanese cyberpu…
Sila (Poland) - Demo Autumn 2009 (2009, eh?)
Tracklist: 01. powietrze 02. maath-maa 03. krzycz 04. zmierzch odrodzenia 05. bydło 06. syn wisielca Total playing time 16:48 Sila is a Polish "math rock / progressive grind" band. The description is utter nonsense seeing as the music doesn't have much to do with either genre, yet somehow it still remains pretty fucking awesome. Sufficiently retrospective, I'd think of Gorguts spread on the floor, but the math to Sila's dissonance is a fairly different deal, the best impressionist sound evaluation being certainly in regar…
God Harvest (USA) - DEMO (2011)
Tracklist: 1. Infidel 2. Feed Us 3. Crucifacial 4. Untitled 5. Human Holocaust 6. Genetic Death Total playing time 11:36 God Harvest is another fresh, damn nice (fairly) grind band from Florida and this is their demo. Bass heavy, angry, catchy, metallic yet punk as fuck / bits of melody, bits of dissonance, these five dudes long for blastbeatitude by the Way of Nasum. If it means anything, they've been playing with ace bands, too; e.g. the mad Vaccine, a speed freakshow that Alex coincidentally posted some days ago over here . That said, t…
Robocop (Maine, USA) - Demo (2009)
Tracklist: 1. Intro / I Hope All Your Friends Die 2. Assasination Markets 3. Caucasian Big Man Power 4. Feminism Uberalles 5. Scram, Kidz! 6. Substitute Creature 7. Outro Total playing time 12:03 Maine hybrid punx empowered by the Bastard violence, makes you wonder how no band already made claims of instant ejaculation upon Alexander James Murphy's cold, metallic touch, how no non-cyborg organically dreamt up Burroughs-style phallic flesh-guns, machine-gun-hands, the morning shaving ritual resulting with resistors & transistors on the …
0100 The year 2010 through a Cephalochromoscope (Part 1/4)
I know I'm late. Can't travel back in time, anyhow. If I had to, I'd say that 2010 took the cake in the sludge / slower department in general; bands like Thou, Harvey Milk, Cough, The Body, the new, improved version of Bastard Noise, and much, much more (and sure, I've missed some potentially ace / probably metal ones, e.g. the new Immolation, but I don't really care to hear about it unless it's grind). Not to worry, though, 'cause I've suffered through a great lot of blastbeats anyhow. Deliberately ignoring a l…
0100 The year 2010 through a Cephalochromoscope (Part 2/4)
HASTE 1.1 /shiny grind - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [downright first class stuff] Kill The Client - Set For Extinction Not as abrasive, intense, or catchy as Cleptocracy, but Kill The Client is certainly still among the top of grindcore today, so now's the time to decide whether they want to become another Phobia or broaden their area of destruction. Slow down, add some melody, etc.? Fuck no. And stop sludging it up. I'm just looking at bands like Noisear and GridLink trying to become the blastbeat. Bryan Fajardo…
0100 The year 2010 through a Cephalochromoscope (Part 3/4)
HASTE 1.2 /emo - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [to be honest, I’m not talking about the hairstyle] Loma Prieta - Life/Less The Life/Less 12" is a thrashin’ interpretation of screamo, preferring to crush, rather than take part in the bland, modern post-rock gimmick that many such bands settled into. But why are people calling this stuff chaotic as if bands like Orchid or Usurp Synapse never even existed. Sure, there are certainly many great bands today, but I’ve still not heard one able of holding a candle to …
0100 The year 2010 through a Cephalochromoscope (Part 4/4)
SLOW DOWN AND DIE /winning a sludge contest is like - - - - - - - - - - - - - [making funny faces to adults / the ass- holes might not appreciate your work] Thou - Summit [posted] Madly prolific, inimitable, apocalyptically hopeful Louisiana sludge. Summit may not be as heavily catchy as Tyrant, but I'd rather focus on how awesome it still is. Coupled with the lyrics, Thou's sludge might sound like ruby red lava creeping down bleak NOLA streets, cleansing the city of cop, dope, and man all-together; crystal clear progressions erupt in…
ZaSKaE (Germany) - Chikara (2010)
Tracklist: 1. Yoku Irasshaimashita 2. Ikari 3. Tekii Ni Motodzuku Hanzai 4. Kiri 5. Inochi No Nai Total playing time 03:15 Heard 'em thanks to a radio show of Nigel's (his blog being Hipness as a Second Language )! ZaSKaE is a German non-stop blasting four-piece, with riffs akin to Hellnation doing a Commodore 64 SHMUP's fastcore soundtrack. The bandname is but an allusion to the name "Sasuke", the bandmembers remain anonymous, and Chikara (Japanese for "Power") is their short 'n' sweet debut, free for d…
Kerouac (UK) - Cold and Distant, Not Loving EP (2010)
Tracklist: 1. Heavy Hearted 2. Lay of the Landfill 3. Little Mountains We Move 4. Pale 5. Our Fathers Guns 6. A Bastard Behind the Eyes 7. A Sheep. A Well Total playing time 16:45 With a bandname like that, you better play some damn good bebop. Well, Kerouac’s a bit too heavy for such jazz, but I still like them. I’ll use this opportunity in order to take a dump into the genre pool; in an age where metalcore means utter shit like As I Lay Dying and Bring Me the Horizon (wait, the second one’s deathcore? no way! I insist that it’s less annoying…
