suck up brain or fuck ya brain

i can't stop playing katamari damacy...

tony rettman played this hardcore band YDI on his show a while back and if all hardcore was as hardcore as this i would like more hardcore. guitar sounds like it's plugged into one of those 1970s entertainment consoles with walnut veneer and cardboard speaker cones, up all the way. all odd-order harmonics, no notes, tuned maybe. singer's batshit and pissed and he also happens to be, well, i guess i have some friends who are so i can say, but i don't want to be politically... BLACK! it's a BLACK GUY! there's your one-sheet bullet point!

the band is on that plain of sloppiness where it's all just always collapsing but it happens so quickly you don't notice it much; fuck jazz, and if i'm not clear on that fuck jazz because this is 'ecstatic' 'free' music even if it has riffs and you don't have to pretend it's visceral, it just is. and then on the lp (included in addition to the 7" and demo) they get all neat records 1983 (cf. any band named after war, war-related activities or implements). this and canadian speed metal from the 80s are keeping my brain twitchy enough to function.

the YDI (pr. "why die") album is called "out for blood" and it's on parts unknown records, and you'll need the link cause google puts them on like page 49 - 3 hours of my life wasted, the other 31 years were gold though.

cage the ragers!
