Awesome Albums I've Been Jamming To
Some cool albums, some lesser known, some pretty well known (at least on this site). Check 'em out if you don't know 'em! Also, recs would be good too. |
| 1 |  | Rosa Valle
Holy Bermuda
Virtually unknown band, just released a great EP this year. Sounds a bit like your cookie-cutter indie band, with similar bass lines and vocals, except it's done well, and mixed in with some hardcore moments and math-ish guitar - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBKwVI8gHRw |

Descent
Great band, described at Holy Roar as "Think of bands such as Saetia, City of Caterpillar, Orchid and Jeromes Dream and you are close, but this has infinitely more appeal." Pretty groovy tracks from what I heard, needs some more love. |
| 3 |  | Hang The Bastard
Hellfire Reign
Found them by accident searching for Man Is The Bastard because I couldn't remember the name... It's like Down with a hardcore vocalist. Pretty awesome, though I can't help but feel the guitars are a bit too much like Down at times. |
| 4 |  | Nails
Unsilent Death

| 5 |  | Coilguns And Kunz
Coilguns And Kunz
I'm whoring my review for this. Seriously though, it's for fans of The Ocean, DEP, Converge, Jesuit, hardcore, etc. There's even a Mediafire link in the comments. Just click it. |
| 6 |  | This Is Your Captain Speaking
Eternal Return
Post-rock with intricate melodies and awesome guitar work. Rules hard. |
| 7 | | Agoraphobic Nosebleed/Despise You
And On And On. . .
Ass kicking, face stomping powerviolence with some great (as usual) songs from ANB. Despise You steals the show on this EP, totally worth checking out. |
| 8 |  | Brutal Truth
End Time
The kings of grind continue the assault. 'Nuff said. |
| 9 |  | Nihilist
Nihilist 1987-1989
Being reissued on vinyl on Southern Lord. 2,000 available. Get yours. |
| 10 |  | Jesuit
Discography
Get it just for that album cover. Plus, members of Botch and DEP means it has to be pretty good. |
| 11 |  | Kayo Dot
Stained Glass
Good EP. If you're a fan of their other stuff, may as well give it a listen. |
| 12 |  | Runhild Gammelsaeter
Amplicon
Something about this wasn't that great, but it also some pretty killer moments. It's not anything at all like Thorr's Hammer, still cool though. Check it out if you want some strange, noise-y, female vocalist music. |
| 13 |  | Burning Witch
Crippled Lucifer
Tuning to G# before it was trendy. Also being re-issued on vinyl. Sweet. |
| 14 |  | Prurient
Bermuda Drain
Yeah. |
| 15 |  | Cows
Cunning Stunts
Don't know how to describe this, other than it's awesome. |
