I think the general idea; the general sorta unwritten rule was that they kinda had to be from Napalm Death's influential and formative years in the 80's. The underground bands from there, some demo bands, some album bands and so that was the general understanding so we each...
HARDCORE, LOUD, FAST, RAUCOUS, BALLS, "NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF", how can you top this shit, unbelievable, them and Black Flag are enough, ANTI-SOCIAL, down with Reagan stuff, anti-religion, "All religion's suck", Fritz loves California Uber Alles, these guys start out at 100mph and take off, Jello's the next...
Our initial goal of Godflesh was to have this brutally heavy shit, but have a mechanical side to what we do: To be groove-oriented. We always wanted a fat groove. Obviously, we were able to get that fat groove, having a drummer, unlike before, when we used a...
This was a bit of a weird one. We actually recorded it as our second release, but we then had to take our label to court which meant that most of it was temporarily lost for legal reasons. The next thing I know the band had split into...
I remember I felt a profound rush of satisfaction when the music for The Olden Domain started to come together in terms of writing, producing, and, even more so, when the album was finished. Finally, I felt that all the pieces of the puzzle came together in a...
SAINT VITUS completed recording their classic debut album on this day in 1982. Due to a contractual dispute between their label SST and distributor MCA / Unicorn Records - which lasted until late 1983 - the album would not be released until February 1984. We were playing as...
"Slaughtercult" took shape throughout 1999, and was a combination of a lot of stuff. Two of the major factors were Fleshredding fret-rapist Mike Beams being with the band for the whole conception of the album. When he joined the band in 1998, "Gore Metal" was already written, and...
KURO live at the In and Out club, Kokura, Kitakyushu, Japan on this day in 1985.

ARMORED SAINT released their debut studio recording, the self-titled 12", on this day in 1983 through Metal Blade. The opener "Lesson Well Learned" was previously included on the Metal Blade compilation Metal Massacre II (1982). Soon after, the band received a three album deal with major Chrysalis and...
DIO released the Holy Diver single, taken from the album of the same name, on this day in 1983. "Evil Eyes" appeared on the 7" b-side, the 12" single added "Don't Talk to Strangers".
I think there has been a lot more involvement and input from all the members of the band this time around. Not that it wasn't like that before, but while making this album the guys in the band did a lot more writing. I also think we have...
I think people are more ready now for our stuff, 'cause we've been told that we were 10 years [ahead of our time], and it's been 10 years, so here we are now. And I think the Seattle scene, bands like Nirvana, really opened doors. People are more...
"The Nocturnal Silence" is NOT for the weak, the christians and people with fear for the dark. It contains 9 songs of pure evil and darkness that'll make the sun never rise again!!! Recorded in March at Sunlight Studio - between CEMETERY's Godless Beauty and AT THE GATES'...
We didn't really ponder these things a lot, we just did what we loved doing. Back then we were still very ambicious in becoming the fastest playing, while simultaneously maintaining most possible technicality and musical complexity. Ron Royce / Coroner interview, Agoraphobic News, 2016 CORONER released the second...
One of three solo EPs produced by each member of the MELVINS in 1992, King Buzzo's effort was released on this day in 1992. Dave Grohl (SCREAM, NIRVANA) performed drums (and guitars on the last song) as Dale Nixon in a nod to BLACK FLAG. The concept, including...
