Cenotaph Tenebrous Apparitions/The Eternal Disgrace (90/91) re-issued
Cenotaph joined the vocabulary of extreme metalheads after showing up on the Pantalgia compilation in 1992, but was known to tape traders before then as a Mexican band with a distinct style of heavy primitive death metal that was nonetheless discursive and spirited.

RIP Coolio
Rap today is known mostly as moron music since it has removed melodic continuity from music, resulting in a one-dimensional experience based around the words of human voices just like deathcore and other cretin entertainment. Coolio was one of the last to keep its R&B roots intact.

Nganga Cumbox
Down at the Texas border, in the fluid zone between clearly defined loci of control, you can find what might be described as an alternate state of reality. It is not a formal political state, maybe more of a state of mind, or even a state of flux, since at the edges of society the excluded predominate.

Rotheads – Slither in Slime (2022)
These songs fit riffs into rhythms to make a song move like an organic mass, its different parts pulling each other along and making repetition intensify rather than provide entropy, using death metal riffs without filler from other genres or phraseless placeholders.

Disma – Earthendium (2022)
Writing death metal requires taking the listener to the edges of coherent relationships between riffs in order to emphasize an internal dialogue in the song, where writing doom metal involves bringing the hearer to the edge of monotony and then introducing improbable forward motion. Doom-death does both.

Massacre – Mythos (2022)
Metal, in a state of collapse, has reverted to combining genres, resulting in too much speed metal working its way into death metal, as is the case on this otherwise excellent EP which demonstrates the art of simple but not simplistic death metal riffcraft at its best.

Casa de Garcia – Connecticut Churchill (2022)
On this site, we need to come down harder on bunglers. Bunglers either tend to be anarchistic-narcissistic or obedient-conformist, which means that you can be one in either major political party, even if the biggest bunglers come from the Utopians who, among other things, ruined Cuban cigars.
