Shifty Records presents us this delicious Sludge compilation, which features the following bands: MUGWART, GOATSBLOOD, MOLEHILL, FISTULA and SLOTH (US). One of my first thoughts was, if this one can beat the outstanding "South Of Hell" compilation which was released two years ago in 2001 on the sadly defunctional Berserker Records label...
This low price double CD compilation contains 45 tracks in over 150 minutes of extreme music, and it gives you a perfect overview about the actual bands on Relapse Records. It features also an exclusive live track from THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN ("Destro's Secret"), but all other tracks are previously released...

A lot of blood was going down the river since Japanese CHURCH OF MISERY had released their last full-length "Master Of Brutality". Their last life-sign "The Boston Strangler", a 12" was to mediocre for my taste and it seems t, as if there was a lack of forceful ideas, and I thought this cats were burned out...
Here we have the new exclusive strictly limited double vinyl set of COLOUR HAZE, which has been released in March 2003 on Nasoni Records and Stefan's label Elektrohasch.
