Alright, got a double tape deck last week, done with listening to tapes on shitty walkman!
Sewer Goddess - Dejection Veil (C32, Rotting Chapel): First release of Sewer Goddess (though reissue), I think. Already knew the track Reflection from the Gutter from the Manifestations on the Road to Death comp. Overall, it seems SG delivered quality from the first release onward, although it seems later releases are more focused and filthier.
The Vomit Arsonist - Reason (C30, Nil By Mouth Recordings): First the packaging: first time I really have to cut open the packaging to get to the actual release, pretty cool. 5 sober inserts (black and white) of which on one of them the text was not readable, bit pity, but by know I know what it says (I know how it will end). Black spraypainted case, black tape. All elements of the packaging go well together. Then the music: sounds typical The Vomit Arsonist stuff, synths, noise, cool vocals. First two tracks had some sounds of which I first thought it was kind of the tape hissing, hehe. Can't tell much about the Bloodyminded cover (ie how it is compared to the original), since I'm not familiar with this act. Overall a very good tape and one that I'll certainly have to listen a couple more times to fully get it.
Survival Unit - Thought Trigger Target (CD, Autarkeia): Good Survival Unit stuff. Second album I own, after Will to Zero, which I think is just a bit better, because it's more intense. Is there a mistake in the tracklist? Because it says that track 9 is Anthrax Zone, while track 10 starts with the anthrax speech sample and clearly has the lyrics Anthrax Zone in it. One of the best tracks on the album anyway.
