Archagathus / Violent Gorge split 7"

One of a series of splits between Archagathus and Violent Gorge. The Archagathus side contains guaranteed grindcore madness with awesome whiny high-pitched screams alongside the expected growls, and super-fun groovy parts combined with blastbeats and old-Entombed-like riffs. Violent Gorge plays even heavier and more old-school-death-metal influenced grindcore with some very nice doomy/Autopsy-esque riffs. 2013 7" jointly released by Don't Fear The Night, Acid Redux Productions, Grindfather Productions, and Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench.

Various - Small Doses comp cd

No, this isn't a compilation of the Small Doses label. It's a compilation featuring 100 artists and groups offering tracks of maximum half a minute. It goes without saying that this is going to be a noisecore/grindcore/ harsh noise affair; the artists are too many to mention, but prominent names include Vomir (must have been a challenge to create such a short track), a super fast assault by the unforgettable Rupture, Melanocetus Murrayi, grindcore legends Agathocles, Wadge, Violent Headache, Captain Three Leg and Mesrine, noisecore monuments such as 7 Minutes of Nausea, Nikudorei, and Sete Star Sept, Parlamentarisk Sodomi, Psychotic Sufferance, Gorgonized Dorks, Funeral Mongoloids, Colico, PTAO and Ratten Krieg. 2009 cd on Mortville Records, No Fucking Labels, Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench, Death Agony and Screams and Discos Al Pacino (great name).

Melanocetus Murrayi - Entropy Of The Universe / Megalodon Harsh Tones tape

 

The latest release of Melanocetus Murrayi finds them experimenting with a more cave-like sound: less relentless chaotic in-yer-face noise, more reverb and bass-heavy, with anguished vocals full with delay. 2016 tape on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench and Autistic Society System Filth-Records.

Melanocetus Murrayi / Chappa'ai - Split Tape

The return of Melanocetus after six years of inactivity finds them with a changed line-up in half, with a heavier, reverb-heavy sound that sounds more spacey. On the other side, there's Chappa'ai, the noise project of members of the amazing Hungarian grindcore band SxOxTxE and they feature one track of monstrous harshnoise/noisecore with heavy electronic noise, bestial tortured screams from the belly of hell and drum smashing. I've seen both Chappa'ai and SxOxTxE live and they are the absolute business, plus they're great people. Give them a chance, they rock. 2015 tape on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench, Autistic Society System Filth-Records, Noise Not War Records, HappyHappyNoiseNoise, and Blastbeat Worship.

Psychotic Sufferance / Melanocetus Murrayi split 7"

One side of Gore Beyond Necropsy noise 'n' roll-styled noisecore by long-running crazy Malaysians Psychotic Sufferance, with great wah solos. On the flip side a chaotic whirlwind of relentless blastbeats, psychedelic bass-and-guitar noise and demonic, possessed screaming by Melanocetus Murrayi, like a mix of Deicide's Glen Benton and the girl from The Exorcist on really bad PCP. 2009 7" on No Fucking Labels, Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench, Grind Block, Alcoholic Desaster and NHDIYSTREC.

Industrial Noise / Melanocetus Murrayi split tape

Industrial Noise is from Brazil, but their name is deceptive as they play cool punky/crusty grindcore, raw and unpolished, as it should be. Melanocetus Murrayi offer a side of some of their weirdest vocals, sustained by insanely fast and unstoppable drum blastbeats and piercing noise. 2009 tape on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench and Abyssal Noise.

PTAO / Melanocetus Murrayi - Noisecore Jam 2008 / At War With Garbage Human Beings split cdr

PTAO is a Czech noisecore band with gruff screams, punky blasts and toxic guitar sounds. The track of Melanocetus Murrayi is one of their best. Starts with a great Richard Attenborough sample from his deep-sea documentaries, and proceeds with a savage noisecore swim in a sea of toxic waste and mutant flora and fauna. 2009 cdr on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench and Abyssal Noise.

Melanocetus Murrayi / Ratten Krieg split cdr

Ratten Krieg play enigmatic lo-fi noisecore with a guy murmuring in what appears like a Slavic language, somewhat similar to 7 Minutes of Nausea. Melano offer another mess of improv noisecore and harshnoise with barbaric screaming, cymbal smashing and amp destroying. 2008 tape on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench.

Vulgar Nausea / Melanocetus Murrayi split cdr

Deche-Charge / Melanocetus Murrayi split tape

Deche-Charge from Quebec present 21 minutes of live improv noisecore that frankly doesn't do much for me. Melanocetus Murrayi on the other hand spew out an incredibly loud harsh noise attack that's too good to be ignored. 2008 tape on Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench.

Mutilated Ear-drum / Melanocetus Murrayi / Gore Galore / Decomposing Vomit - Garbage 4 Sic tape

Split tape featuring bands of the Greek noise/grind scene. First is the indescribable Mutilated Ear-drum who play the murkiest possible goregrind, based only on distorted bass, drum machine and the most vomit-sounding gore vocals a pitch-shifter can achieve-Last Days of Humanity can only dream of doing this. Perfect. Second is Melanocetus Murrayi with a 20-minute track of their self-described "garbage noise." Gore Galore is yet another project of drummer/noiser Maou, together with another member of Raw Noise Apes and then Terrorismo Musical, playing dirty grindcore/mincecore, while Decomposing Vomit sound similar, albeit with a slightly more death metal edge. 2007 tape on the most reliable distributor of romantic soul music, Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench.

9922 / Filthy Noisy Anthrope - Split CDR

The tracks of 9922 feature not too interesting fuzzed-bass and speedy drum machine grind/speedcore (with a fun cover of Joy Division's "They Walked In Line"), while the side of FilthyNoisyAnthrope starts with a sample of Satie's "Désespoir agréable" and contains almost 50 minutes of ear-splitting, relentless harsh noise, that is quite good. 2008 cdr on the almighty Septic Aroma Of Reeking Stench label from Athens.
