Lifelover - Dekadens

Here you go, something not so painfully entry-level post from me. Firstly I gotta say, I am still new to the whole metal and its sub-genres in general, but it didn't take long for this EP to catch my attention. It is supposed to be depressive black metal, but most of the lyrics are in Swedish so ¯\(°_o)/¯.

Nevertheless, it's really enjoyable. Listen here.

Wutang Vs. The Beatles


Remixed by Tom Caruana, It generally has samples of covers, which is kind of misleading. The actual songs themselves are really good, and he manages to keep the flow of both songs.

A Place to Bury Strangers - Exploding Head

Fuck yes, this second full length from APTBS kicks ass! If you've ever listened to their debut before and thought nothing could get any louder than that, you were wrong. So wrong. Exploding Head will literally split your ears off with more noise explosions and intense distortions (played in full volume, of course). My personal favourite is the track Deadbeat, can't ever get enough of the catchy beat. Also highly recommended if you're a fan of The Jesus and Mary Chain's Psychocandy.

The loudest band of New York's best, get it here.

Frank Zappa - Make a Jazz Noise Here

Well, I think this album might be old hat for some of you. It's a classic. The perfect mix between jazz and rock, some of the most SCORCHING guitar solos (oh, and xylophones) ever heard. This album is not one to pass up. I am only posting the first disc, but I highly recommend the second as well, as it has some groovy-azz songs to jam out 2 wit ya boiiz.

(a personal favourite is "Black Napkins")

I Hate Myself - 10 Songs

A true tear-jerker and heart-wrenching album. None of that bullshit alternative emo punk rock whatever stuff 13-year-olds nowadays listen to. Name of the band might put you off a bit, but 10 Songs is guaranteed to leave you weeping in your little corner and make you want to rip your heart and soul apart. Just listen to To a Husband at War and call me if you didn't at least sob upon hearing the lyrics. (Actually, if you didn't, you're probably just a heartless bastard.. in that case, never call me.)

If I could only choose one album to bawl my eyes out to, it's a no brainer, Sir.

Have a Nice Life - Deathconsciousness

Starting my music blog cyber-life with posting one of my favourite albums of all time. Deathconsciousness was 2008 AOTY for many music lovers 'round the globe, too bad I only discovered it a year later. It's really hard to pin exact labels/genres on these guys, their sound is one of a kind. Beautiful mixture of drone, post-rock, shoegaze and even post-punk.

While you chill back, in your room or somewhere peaceful in the middle of the night, this is that one album you can count on as a great companion.

If you haven't got it already, grab it here.

Halfby - Side Farmers


This is some great Big Beat/Country/Ska. It's bound to put you in a good mood.
