I was introduced to this mammoth, skull crushing, internal organ bursting grindcore band through their EP, King of the Grindcore Jungle. For me, that EP was at the apex of crushing brutality. It had drums sounding like aerial raids, guitars that sounded like human flesh getting grated on barbed wire, and screeching pterodactyl vocals. With this new album however, I feel the band has taken a massive hit. Gone are the vocals I loved before and gone also is a large chunk of awesome production. But these are just my thoughts… after one listen. Stream the album below and leave a comment on your thoughts, likes, dislikes etc.

Boston, Curmudgeon, hardcore, powerviolence

Holy shit. Curmudgeon are a band I can’t believe I haven’t heard of before. Not sure on the band’s stance label-wise, but I know they hail from Boston and play an amazing brand of powerviolence. Crushing, sludgy riffs, intelligible vocals that are shrill and demanding. One thing that this band pulls off that a lot cannot is gang vocals. Absolutely amazing. Tracks like “Grand Machismo” and “Allston FOAD” really show off the sludgy, crunchy side of Curmudgeon while tracks like “Shut Out” and “Worthless Generation” show off the power of grindviolence. Some other tracks, like “Devoid” are utterly hardcore. Simply put, this band is incredible. Best part, you can download it for free. Go here and download the Human Ouroboros Tape. It’s fucking sick!
