Completely jarring grooves and rhythmically complex electric guitar monstrosities occupy the duration of this track. You can stream that bad boy below as well as the debut EP, The Pledge, below.

Fantasy, Hardcore Punk, Hoax, Microphone Smashing On Head-core, Music Videos

HOAX (aka the scary hardcore band with multiple self-titled EPs and the singer likes to hit himself in the head with microphones) have recently debuted a video for the track “Fantasy” off of their third and most recent self-titled EP out now on Painkiller Records. The Cali-Dewitt directed and beautifully-shot “Fantasy” is ripe with uncomfortable bondage imagery, people sucking on shoes, abstract dance and the beautiful streets of Los Angeles, California which is all further boasted by the paranoid, buzz-tone, and d-beat-like riffplay of the song itself. Anyhow, watch the abstract video below and decide for yourself. Continue reading »

Holy Terror, Keith Deen

If you’ve ever sat down and listened to 80′s thrash beasts Holy Terror, you’ll know that vocalist Keith Deen had a great voice and he could spit a mouthful at you at 100 miles per hour. He was a fantastic frontman that a lot of metalheads forgot about. Holy Terror only released two albums, 1987′s Terror And Submission and, one of my favorite thrash albums of all time, 1988′s Mind Wars.

Unfortunately it was recently announced that Keith Deen has passed away. Deen had been fighting cancer since September and it seems that the disease got the best of him. Holy Terror has broken up and reformed many times since their original split in 1989. Although the band has gotten back together, no albums were recorded after Mind Wars. After the jump you can read a statement from a personal friend of Keith Deen about the man himself. Rest in peace, Keith. Thrash beyond death. Continue reading »
