David Allan Coe

It's been a while, brothers. I come back to you from the Wilderness of North America with a humble offering from the Southland.

David Allan Coe. What can I say? The country man that was so metal. Known for his x-rated albums and his sometimes rank subject matter, David Allan Coe is an essential addition to the collection of any fan of outlaw country, southern rock, even some of the bluesier varieties of sludge metal. DAC is one bad mother fucker, as you can tell from such songs are Long Haired Redneck, Son of the South, and Willie, Waylon, and Me.

Musically, David has a very strong voice that he can tune to a lot of different sounds. From the mournful You Never Even Called Me By My Name to the gospel Would You Lay With Me (In a Field of Stone) and then to the biting honky tonk sound of Long Haired Redneck.

Greatest Hits.


Well, I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But, before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a damned old train.

R.L. Burnside - A Ass Pocket Of Whiskey

"R.L. Listen man, wait a second, i'm short on money now...R.L? I need 40 Nickles for a bag of chips.
...
If you dont get out of my face now, I'm going to kick your ass you son of a bitch."

A Ass Pocket of Whiskey is a collaborative album by the American Delta Bluesman R.L. Burnside and the "Punk-Blues" band Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Expect some fuzz, expect some rambling blues, expect some nigga moments.

Blood Ceremony

"Now Astaroth's ship sets sail across the sky
Through Saturn's yawning hail, and into the eye
Black magic rites profane
Wizards are oft' to blame"

Blood Ceremony is a Female fronted doom band from Canada. I just got this album two days ago and I've already listened to it like 6 or 7 times. Think Black Sabbath meets Jethro Tull (the vocalist plays both flute and organ on this album). I highly suggest this to any doom fan.

The Nation of Ulysses - 13-Point Program to Destroy America

The road to hell is paved with chocolate treats

Hey kids! Do you like punk rock? Do you like it raucous and rowdy? Then have I got an album for you!

The Nation of Ulysses were a band from Washington D.C. who had some crazy ideas about how music from the '60s and '70s was shit, that actually knowing how to play your instruments made you poseurs, that old people sucked, and that punks should make an effort to dress nice.

This, their debut album, has 16 tracks of punchy punk numbers crammed full of ludicrously radical left-wing lyrics, so if you like that kind of thing then this is kind of thing that you will like. Enjoy!

Artist: The Nation of Ulysses
Album: 13-Point Program to Destroy America
Genre: Punk Rock

Bathory - Blood Fire Death

The elder among the men looked deep into the fire
and spoke loud with pride:
"Tomorrow is a fine day to die"

Blood Fire Death is Bathory's finest hour. An album of relentlessly epic thrashy black metal dripping with Norse paganism, this album is widely considered the birth of the Viking Metal genre. It's a metal essential.

Artist: Bathory
Album: Blood Fire Death
Genre: Black Metal, Viking Metal

Clutch - Clutch

"Wash of the Chesapeake and Appalachian Blue Range,
I have discovered the body of John Wilkes Booth.
Yes, it's true, I have Mr. Booth.
Everybody got to make a living somehow.
Do I hear a million?"

If there was ever an album that was made to be cranked to the max, it was this one. This is one of Clutches earlier albums, and also one of there most hardcore. Download this, crank it, and let your head rock naturally to the heavy grooves.

Teen Cthulhu

Ride the Blade is a fun album from Teen Cthulhu, who Davey aptly described as sounding like 'unfaggy symphonic black metal almost.' This is one of the best Powerviolence bands, and well worth checking out.

Flagitious Idiosyncrasy In The Dilapidation + STORMBLOG UPDATE

Flagitious Idiosyncrasy In The Dilapidation are a Japanese Death/Grind band, and sound like a small dog being stamped on repeatedly by a big boot. They're sort of fun, and this is their first demo. Also I know that they don't look like a Death/Grind band, but take my word for it.

STORMBLOG UPDATE:

From now on, as I don't want to continue paying for a megaupload account I don't particularly need, I will be switching to the free hosting service MEDIAFIRE. Any questions, just ask. I don't know about the other contributors, but my personal stance is that megaupload, whilst having the megavideo advantage is too expensive. I shall return to megaupload during my university term, most likely.

Blood, Sweat and Tears

"You made me so very happy
I'm so glad you came into my life"

Blood Sweat and Tears is a band formed in New York City around 1967. Popularly called "Jazz Rock" they incorporate a good bit of Genre's into there music, including Jazz, Rock, Blues, and Pop. This is there second album and my current favorite (of those I've listened to). They are also pretty good live, I was lucky enough to see them at the Maryland Blues fest this year. Give this one a spin and see how you feel.

Akira

This is the Akira soundtrack, one of my personal favourite OSTs ever, and much better than a lot of what passes for soundtrack work nowadays. Even if you don't like the film, the sheer epic scale of the soundtrack should take you away into a different world.
