Life Knife Death, from the veteran Swedish hardcore punk band Wolfbrigade, is the follow-up album to 2019’s The Enemy: Reality. Formed in 1995 in the small Swedish city of Mariestad by key players from Sweden's legendary hardcore scene, Wolfbrigade (known as Wolfpack until 1999) remain among Scandinavia's most respected, influential and reliable purveyors of real-world brute-force hullabaloo. On this eleventh album, the niftiest skills honed to a fine edge over 30 years are dispatched with greater style and intensity than ever. Most immediately, there's the sheer velocity and barely-controlled rage pumping through dynamic d-beaten blood-shakers like Ways To Die and Your God Is A Corpse, the furious attack assisted to heart-fluttering greatness by a newly loosened sense of raucous spontaneity. "We didn’t really rehearse any of the songs on this album,"the band reveals. "We tend to overwork and overanalyze everything that we do, and sometimes we get lost in that process. This time we wanted to go rough, to capture the raw essence of the song when it’s just out of the womb. All the blood and gore." Mounting global chaos may have us all darkly fearing the end times, but it has also seemingly created the ideal circumstances for a hardcore punk LP as coruscatingly brutal as Wolfbrigade's “Life Knife Death”. -

One of Britain’s most consistent and enduring death metal bands, Birmingham’s Bolt Thrower has weathered the best and worst of times in the extreme genre’s history without ever giving in to commercial temptations, or hardly even altering its sound. The fact that they were unusually blessed with a steady lineup throughout much of their career no doubt contributed to this stability, and though they were rarely bestowed wild praise for their efforts, with most of their competitors or contemporaries either adopting other styles or long retired, Bolt Thrower has gradually established itself as one of the best death metal bands ever to emerge from England. Those Once Loyal is the eighth and final album by the British death metal band Bolt Thrower. It was released in 2005. With Bolt Thrower deciding against releasing a follow-up to Those Once Loyal, it was Bolt Thrower’s final studio album before breaking up a year after drummer Martin Kearns’ death in September 2015. Like all of Bolt Thrower’s albums, Those Once Loyal deals with war, specifically World War I. The cover shows a World War 1 QF 18 pounder field gun and its crew in action and is based on an original WW1 photograph.The picture is also found on the back side of the Guards Memorial in St James’s Park in London.- Gatefold, including a poster

25 years in and Hellshock still have a lot to say and their sound is getting darker and heavier than ever. XXV dives deep into bleak, metallic stenchcore territory, blending their trademark crust foundation with Bolt Thrower-style riffing, somber melodies, and even the occasional synth touch that adds to the apocalyptic vibe. The production is massive, thick, heavy, but never over-polished. Everything hits hard: the guitars are crushing, the rhythm section is powerful, and the vocals bark with the usual visceral intensity. There’s an oppressive, almost funereal atmosphere running through the record that drags you down with it—and that’s a compliment. Hellshock kinda reinvent the wheel here creating something different that usual that I would define “progressive darkened stench core”. XXV is a fitting soundtrack for the end times: scary, powerful, and utterly uncompromising. American press by Black Water Records. Limited run of 500 copies. -
Hailing from the former northern mining town of Wigan, between Manchester and Liverpool, the short-lived Electro Hippies were a band like no other, saluted as icons of crust punk and proto-grindcore. Following some cassette demos, a shared LP with Newcastle’s Generic and a Peel session, debut LP The Only Good Punk…Is A Dead One surfaced on Peaceville with twenty songs, all clocking in at under two minutes (around half being less than 60 seconds). Highly political, deeply ironic, and with a snatch of Black Sabbath in the mix, The Only Good Punk is the band at their blistering best, the peak that preceded their ultimate downfall. -

Μετά από σχεδόν 30 χρόνια, επανακυκλοφορεί ο εμβληματικός δίσκος των Χαοτική Διάσταση «Δεν Περιμένω». Δεν πρόκειται απλώς για μια επανέκδοση, ούτε μόνο για ένα μουσικό ντοκουμέντο που αναβιώνει την ατμόσφαιρα και την ένταση της εποχής. Είναι η σύνδεση παρελθόντος και παρόντος για ένα άλμπουμ που άφησε το δικό του στίγμα στην ελληνική punk rock σκηνή και που, παρά την πάροδο των ετών, παραμένει διαχρονικό και ζωντανό. Είναι η απόδειξη πως κάποια πράγματα δεν ξεθωριάζουν. Είναι η συνέχεια μιας διαδρομής που δεν σταμάτησε ποτέ. Το άλμπουμ, που κυκλοφόρησε αρχικά το 1996 από τη Wipe Out Records, επιστρέφει με τη προσθήκη του τραγουδιού «Ο Θεατής», το οποίο είχε πρωτοεμφανιστεί στην ιστορική συλλογή «Το Μαγικό Βοτάνι». Κυκλοφορεί σε συνεργασία με την ΕΛ.Α.Σ. (Ελληνόφωνη Ανεξάρτητη Σκηνή). Μετά τη πρόωρη εξάντληση των 500 κομματιών, ο δίσκος επανατυπώνεται σε άλλα 450 αντίτυπα, αυτή τη φορά σε κρυσταλλικό διάφανο βινύλιο. -
