Intro:
Will. Vocalist/Guitarist of L.M.I.. Lansdale, PA, USA
Gulch — Impenetrable Cerebral Fortress
Label: Closed Casket Activities Location: San Jose, CA, USA For me, this was the album I was playing pretty much nonstop over the summer. I had gotten into them last year with the “Burning Desire to Draw Last Breath” EP. I think they really stepped it up for this album. Solid hardcore that isn’t cheesy. Not a bad song on this record. Favorite track: Fucking Towards Salvation Napalm Death - Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism Label: Century Media Location: Meriden, West Midlands, UK This is actually the first Napalm Death album I really got into. I tried getting into them years ago and dug some stuff but it never really clicked for me until this album. Shane Embury is the man and the riffs on this album are perfect. Crazy to see how long these guys have been going and they are still so innovative. Favorite track: Contagion The Bilinda Butchers - Night and Blur Label: Zoom Lens Location: San Francisco, CA, USA I’ve been a fan of The Bilinda Butchers for a little while now and I was pleasantly surprised with this album. Wasn’t the biggest fan of their last few singles but I think they really developed an interesting sound with this album. Still has the familiar things I’ve always enjoyed from them with some more dancey beats. Hands down the sexiest album of the year IMO haha. Favorite track: Do It Rite Best Coast - Always Tomorrow Label: Concord Records Location: Los Angeles, CA, USA Best Coast is one of my favorite bands and I really like the direction they went with this album. Beth and Bobb make the perfect combo with Beth’s vocal harmony’s and Bobb’s leads. They blend together as good as they always have while still furthering their sound. The later songs on this record in particular are some of my favorites. Favorite track: Seeing Red LiFE - Ossification of Coral Label: Desolate Records / Acclaim Collective / Not Enough Records / Distro Rakkos / Punk Bastard Records Location: Tokyo, Japan I was so pumped for this album when it was announced. To the point where I would check the label’s website everyday till the pre-order was up haha. LiFE is one of my favorite crust bands and this album doesn’t disappoint. Definitely makes the wait from their last album worth it. Killer live band as well. A truly badass band that has been doing their thing and staying true to themselves for almost 30 years. Nothing but respect for these guys. Favorite track: Leaning Balance
