Hooker Spit Windex & Pizza Hi-Five - I Thought We Were Friends (2009)


Hooker Spit Windex is a mincecore from Dayton, Ohio, USA and Pizza Hi-Five is a mincecore band from Lima, Ohio, USA. Both bands deliver in overly crusty, goofy and heavy face-pummeling grind assault. Very few sections on this record are even mid-tempo; just non-stop intense blasting, d-beating and cartoon-like vocals, which is kept interesting by the slight influence of powerviolence-style song writing. The split was released as a 7" and later, cassette tape, by both Team Human Records and Feelgoodgrind Tapes.

Hyperemesis & Infester - Split CD-R (2010)


Hyperemesis is one-man pathological goregrind project from Vancouver, B.C., Canada and Infester is a one-man pathological goregrind band from Arkansas, USA. Both bands can undoubtedly be classified as being in the old-school vein of the genre, taking heavy influence from Carcass, Dead Infection, Regurgitate, Last Days Of Humanity - although both with the use of a drum machine - and laden with themes pulled from medical / forensic / pathological textbooks.

Hyperemesis is about as disgustingly pathological, crusty and noisy as it gets, and are also extremely reminiscent of newer bands Autophagia, Lymphatic Phlegm and even almighty Warsore. Infester is a far more traditional goregrind band, replicating the styles of classic pathological goregrind to the finest details; a well executed mix of traditional crusty grindcore and with a nice subtle dose of old-school death metal in the background. The split CD-R was released in 2010 by the American, Regurgitated Stoma Stew Productions.

Fastcore Fest III - July 7th 2012

Third installment of the totally fun, ridiculously awesome DIY fest in Squamish, B.C., Canada. There's pretty much something for everyone here; crust, mincecore, powerviolence, fastcore, sludge and even a little death metal. If you only know some of these bands, there are links below for you to check out the rest and see how fucking insane they all are, and there's also quite a lot of time until this goes down, so NO excuses to be all like "I didn't know it was happening!" - I guarantee this will be the most fun you'll have all summer. I'm pretty sure I'll be going to this myself - or if not, I'll be at home crying my eyes out - so come say hi if you can spot the biggest nerdy idiot in the crowd. Yes, that is a partially naked and disillusioned Eric Wood on the flyer, are you kind of turned on?

This will be a very special night where we pay tribute to our friend Michal Majewski and the, would be, 10 year anniversary of Oshawa grindcore enthusiasts F.A.T.O.!

F.A.T.O. - The 3 remaining members will play a set full of new and old material, from the Welcome to Seaworld demo to some of the last songs ever written by the band. Don't miss the opportunity to remember this notorious Oshawa band and see these songs performed live for the first time in years! RIP Michal. ♥

HARD CHARGER - An unrelenting d-beat machine from Halifax! Heavy, angry, catchy as fuck. Crust 'n roll!

THE VANISHING ACT - This band from Ottawa takes the old school grindcore and death metal sound of bands such as Repulsion, Autopsy and Impetigo and mixes in dark hardcore melodies with flooring results! Their stage presence puts most bands to shame. Don't miss it!

OROKU SAKI NIGHTMARE - Brand new drums and bass powerviolence from PTBO. Stripped down, no bullshit, PV intensity!

10 PM - $5
THE ATRIA
59 King St. E., Oshawa, ON

Swamp Ass - Shitgate Sessions, Vol. 1 (2012)


Swamp Ass is a noisegrind band from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. These guys combine old-school noisecore, like the days of Sore Throat and Seven Minutes of Nausea, with some harsh fucking power electronics. Total DIY, total fun, totally looking forward to more from this band and you should be as well. Shitgate Sessions, Vol. 1 is the first release ever from the band and I think it's an internet release only.

Exogorth - Demo (2009)

Exogorth is a mincegrind band from Seattle, Washington. They write almost exclusively about sci-fi, weed and Star Wars and as such, took their name from some weird shark / whale Star Wars creature who I've never even heard of up until now. Both musically and lyrically, Exogorth is definitely identifiable as belonging to the recent American mince contingent of bands, such as Lt. Dan, Pizza Hi-Five, Misanthropic Noise, Agitate, etc. This first CD-R demo of the band is pretty spastic, hyper and bizarre sounding - which, although a bit untraditional for mince, is quite refreshing - and they're still raging as fuck. Exogorth will definitely a band to keep your eye on if you appreciate mince and weirdness.

Noituus, Melanocetus Murrayi & Praia De Vômito - Santificado Seja O Nosso Câncer (2008)

Noituus is a noisy drum and bass crasher crust / d-beat band from Turku; Melanocetus Murrayi is a noisecore band from Greece; Praia De Vômito was a political noisecore band from Brazil. Three amazingly noisy and old-school bands doing punk and grind the right way on this CD-R.

Accidental Homicide - Axe-A-Dental (2012)

Accidental Homicide is a mincegrind band from Lima, Ohio. They're playing some straightforward goofy and fucking heavy mince, and presumably comprise members of Lima grindcore saviors, Pizza Hi-Five. Axe-A-Dental is their first demo tape ever, not sure if there's any physical copies left but you can digitally buy the demo as well from their bandcamp page that I linked above if you're feeling generous.

Garett Wolf - Noiseography (2012)

Garett Wolf is a noisegrind band from Delaware, Ohio. They're making noisegrind the old-school way; tons of short songs and out-doing most noisegrind on the insanely ridiculous but strangely witty levels of humor that poke fun at obvious points of idiocy in the grind scene and leave the useless racism or sexism at home. The lineup is comprised of ex-members of Couple Skate - a fabulous mincegore band also from Ohio who no longer exists - and this definitely becomes evident while listening to Garett Wolf, as the goregrind and mincecore 'influences' are certainly there. Noiseography compiles everything done by the band up until now.

Bowel Fetus & Biocyst - Split CD-R (2008)

Bowel Fetus is a goregrind band from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and Biocyst is a one-man gorenoise band from the Netherlands. Other than goregrind, Bowel Fetus play an interesting and very well done mixture of sludge and old-school death metal; the end result is somewhat similar to Bile / Skullhog but they've definitely got a sound of their own and I personally may even prefer it. For those that don't know, Biocyst is one of the many gore-soaked projects of the Dutch, Marc Palmen, whose played in Last Days Of Humanity, Faces Of Gore, Urine Festival, Fece-Vomitatie and who also runs two record labels: Through The Eyes Of The Hated Records and Klysma Records. His project Biocyst is straight-up ear torturing brutality; no breaks, no filler, just a pile of unrelenting, noisy as fuck and drum-machine driven goregrind.

Violent Restitution - Grate The State Tour 2012


Violent Restitution - formally known as Degenerative Myelopathy and now, the album / song title by Razor - are a heavy as fuck 3-piece mincegrind band from Vancouver, B.C., Canada. They're female-fronted and have a female guitarist, which is awesome and sadly, not something you see too much of the grind scene these days. Still a relatively new band - although they've been gigging quite a bit in B.C. - this will be be the first ever tour for the band, and I'm personally ecstatic that they've book as many dates for themselves as they have; my hope is that more people get into them after this tour, as they fucking rule. Anyway, one and a half months is plenty amount of time for you, the grinding fan, to go out and check out a ridiculously fantastic band, so I really really recommend you fucking DO IT! Dates are obviously subject to some change.

Pizza Hi-Five - East Coast Adventure Tour 2012



Pizza Hi-Five a humorously pummeling mincegrind band from Lima, Ohio, USA. They're certainly no newbies to touring, gigging or other grinding actives - namely, making people's ears bleed - for the past 2-3 years. I believe some of these dates were supposed to have been with Agitate, Six Brew Bantha and more were supposed to have been with Lt. Dan, but with Six Brew Bantha's van troubles, I assume shit got reorganized as such. Anyway, if you love grindcore and pizza, I highly suggest you checkout one of these dates.

Misanthropic Noise & Gowl - August Tour 2012




Misanthropic Noise is a crusty and absolutely devastating grindcore / mincecore band from Hartford, Connecticut / Oakland, California, USA and Gowl is a noisy and pissed off grindcore / mincecore band from Tolland, Connecticut, USA. This will not be the first tour for Misanthropic Noise nor Gowl, however this is probably one of the best tour pairings in the States that I've seen in a while; both bands present utter audible savagery and will leave you as a corpse with incredibly bad tinnitus after they play your lame-ass town.

I'm not going to try any harder to convince you to go see them, as their recordings speak for themselves. Dates obviously subject to change and please contact either band at their respective fartbook pages linked above if you can be of help in booking any of the not yet certain dates.

Rape Revenge - Rape Revenge EP (2010)


Rape Revenge are a XVX (vegan straight edge), queer and feminist 4-piece hardcore / powerviolence band from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. They're sound on this release mixes raging, spastic but not at all goofy powerviolence with very prevalent layers of modern hardcore (such as Converge and maybe a little Integrity) with strong hints of screamo (not going to namedrop because I know nothing about screamo). Since this EP, the band has gone more for a straight up pummeling as fuck powerviolence sound - the first example of which being their 'Paper Cage' EP on To Live A Lie Records  which, honestly, I am far more fond of.

Anyway, I hope this post introduces many new people to the band, because they're lovely and dedicated people who play intensely raging music and to be honest, lyrically and thematically they're probably my top pick of any band in Canada for the past while. I'm personally really happy to have had to opportunity to open for them two years ago in Toronto. Anyway, here's what was their first release ever; a self-titled 7" EP released in 2010.

Terrorismo Musical - Paranoia Collectiva (2005)


Terrorismo Musical is a crustgrind / mincecore band from somewhere in Greece. Formed in 2005 - and consistently active since their formation - these souvlaki grinders are surprisingly playing some of the most 'authentic' sounding noise that rarely surfaces these days in the scene. And when I say authentic, I guess what I'm trying to say is that the sound is carefully detailed around borrowing from their influences, but not to the point where it's a distasteful rip-off, like many failed bands out there. Anyway, this is some devastating, intensive and yet humorous grind and really, with a band who took their name from a Warsore EP, would you expect anything other than great quality grinding? I definitely look forward to hearing more from them. Members also play in other great Greek bands - which you can all read about HERE such as Melanocetus Murrayi, Go Filth Go, Raw Noise Apes and I think some may even be involved with the almighty grind label / distro, Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench. Paranoia Collectiva was their first ever demo CD-R and was self-released in 2005.
