Parents - Low Life (2014)

Parents's latest release differs heavily from their previous self-titled album, a lot of the screamo elements are gone, leaving a blisteringly heavy assault of noisy chaotic hardcore, with clear grind/powerviolence influences. This 7" just came out and is definitely worth buying, their release show last Friday was fantastic.

Parents - Low Life

Meth Drinker s/t 7" (2013) Meth Drinker/Moloch split (2013)

Spiteful Urinator - Work Crimes (2014)

Spiteful Urinator are back, with their third release of blackened hateful D-Beat, complete with more guttural loathing and hatred towards all things, from elitist punks (Q:Punk A:Shit!) to the number of churches in their town (Too Many Churches). Filled with chainsaw riffs and sandpaper gargling vocals, Spiteful Urinator are still blasting out raw blackened punk, with scathingly humorous lyrics regarding backwards government policies and scene politics. Highlights of this album include 'The Mayor', with lyrics like "(I) can't play a guitar solo without sucking, (I've) never listened to Manowar while fucking".
Featuring members of Aborted Christians.

Spiteful Urinator - Work Crimes
