RECIPES: Vegan chicken

As some of you might know I am an enthusiastic vegan / vegetarian chef. I recently discovered some weird frozen fake meat and fake fish products I have to tell you about. I will report my experience with theses products. Hopefully I will spark interest in theses cool alternatives. Some are vegetarian and some are even vegan! Check the internet to get theses products. Vegefarm.de is offering some of these and your local Asian supermarket might sell some.
Let´s start with some vegan chicken pieces. 300 grams(about lbs 0.66) cost about 4 euro. That quite expensive but it´s worth every cent! My first impression as I opend the bag was: Holy shit! This smells exactly like chicken. The smell you recognized when you walk by a chicken diner!! This is weird! I didn´t know whether I hate or love this fact! This smell became even more intensive as I joint the pieces. I was told that theses chicken pieces don´t have to be seasoned, or just slightly if you like it spicy. I just added some chicken condiment and some curry for it goes perfectly with chicken.
When I tasted the first piece I couldn´t believe it!! When I do remember it correctly, this is how real chicken tastes for sure!!! I never tasted anything vegan before that comes so closely to the taste of chicken!! I totally felt in love with the taste. Even the texture reminded me of real chicken meat! Okay the last time I eat real meat is almost 18 years ago but nevertheless I assure you that is this taste is so close to real chicken that you´ll love this cruelty free alternative to a dead animal!
You can get some cool recipes containing this chicken pieces here (German language).
If you are from Germany and you have problems to get those fake meat / fish products get in touch with me. I can provide you an email address where you can get it.

HUMMINGBIRD OF DEATH - Goatmeal

Ok I don´t want to deprive you of my current favourite power violence band! I never heard of HUMMINGBIRD OF DEATH before, or even COWABUNGA records. I actually bought it because of some reviews I read. I know.. I know.. I often tell you how good a record / a band is, but this time it´s more adequate than ever! One of the best power violence bands I´ve heard in years!!! Always hyper speed, always on point, always pissed as fuck, always harsh to the max. 3 bandmembers, three shouters. Average length of a song: about 10 seconds with 20 songs on a 5"!!! Everytime I hear this 5" I almost wet my pants about how good it is. Pissed vocals instead of shitty growls / grunts which makes it even better to me!
The last song `from god´s anus to your mouth´ is a proper song with a duration of almost 2 minutes!! I´d like to dedicate this song to `the pope´ (AM I MEAN blog) for this is about his favourite issue `religion´.
Next I´m going to post HUMMINGBIRD OF DEATH´s split 10" w/ CHAINSAW TO THE FACE. So be prepared. In the meantime bow low to the Goatmeal 5"
I already got in touch w/ the band to get their other outputs! Hopefully you can expect more stuff from this outta range band!

BOOKBURNER - s/t

Holy satan! Have you ever heard of BOOKBURNER? Imagine a grindcoreband playing their violent attacks with an modern Hardcore production? I mean this 7" sounds tight like some very well produced NYC hardcorebands. The dry and unusual sound makes this 7" even better. They haul off with some heavy sludge parts to kick your teeth in with some sick hyperspeed blastparts. This is really brutal stuff. The only reason why this 7" doesn´t turn you into a driveling nervous wreck is because it´s too short. 11 songs (well 12 but I wasn´t able to cut one song right), most of the under 15 seconds + one strange sound collage. If you like DESPISE YOU, SUPPRESSION or MAN IS THE BASTARD you will love this record. They are definately going to play a big role in modern power violence!
BOOKBURNER on themself: `Bookburner is honest grind and we have no room for conventionality, and that's all you need to know, fuckers.´ So no Myspace profile you little shit!
`Hard like the devil of toothache - release´ on cool new label One six oh records. Check out the band and the label!

MULE SKINNER - Abuse

Actually I wanted to post some other records but I have to offer you this Cd first. I´m so glad that I got a copy of the MULE SKINNER Cd when it came out because it´s almost impossible to get it by now. Top notch Grindcore in the vein of old Terrorizer or 324. It´s so powerful, so good. I don´t know why this germ never has been rereleased. Read the comments at the myspace profile of the band - so many people are looking for a copy. Like their first 7" this Cd (-only) was released by small French record label SLUDGE Records. I don´t know if the pressing was so limited or if the distribution was so bad or if the owner of SLUDGE records lodges most of the copies under his bed. All I know is that it´s a shame that so few people have a copy or even heard of this musically destruction! In true grindcore tradition, Mule Skinner rip and tear their way through 23 intense tracks in about 35 odd minutes. Each track is a crushing, tornado of punk infused crusty grind with loads of blast beats, crushing breakdowns, odd riffs, grunted vocals and raw power. After 12 years this Cd didn´t lose it´s overwhelming crushing effect. Absolutely no metal here, just pure mid 90s audio violence. Don´t expect a high end production like some recent swedish grind acts have. This 12 years old! But it still rocks!!! Check it out!

ANTI YOU - Making your life miserable

Awsome 7" from this fresh Italian Band. ANTI YOU from Rome play a nice mix between early 80s US punk and mid 80ies Italo thrash. It´s raw and unsophisticated. It sounds like they give a shit about a good production or anything else. The way it should be. This 7" was orginally released on Cd on SOA Records from Italy a year or so ago. Finally it was pressed on vinyl, the real deal!
Their lyrics complete the music by saying just fuck you to everything in a funny manner! What do you expect from a band that called the 1sided ep "pig city life"? (I love this title for I love wordplays). Just a cool release with cool lyrics from a cool band. Get it!
Ah and by the way: The new 7" called `Johnny Bagdad` is a real letdown compared to this! It sounds like they tried while the just did on `Making your life miserable´!
If you are interested: I found some cool band-related artwork at http://www.scarful.com/antiyou.html

GRACE WILL FALL - Split w/ M:40

File under: Goddammit, maybe I´d have recognised your great band earlier if you wouldn´t have chosen such a bad name, which reminds me of lame 90s screamo hardcore!
GRACE WILL FALL simply blew me away! It seems that I missed them all the time though they are very famous by now. In my opinion they play a swedisch mix of REFUSED and FROM ASHES RISE. Catchy though hard, atmospheric though harsh. Varied though brutal! The singer roars very aggressive and reminds me of the ROTTEN SOUND vocal works. The music has a very cool drive and variety and complexity. Again I´m not able to find the right words to describe how good this stuff is. Just check it out, especially the song Moralens stank!!
On the other side we have M:40, also from Sweden. More `In your face Hardcore´ but also very atmospheric, even more agressive but less complex. A good b-side on this split 7"

DUDMAN - Split w/ CRUEL FACE

DUDMAN definetly needs no introducion. The Japan thrashcore veterans released so many records, that it´s almost inpossible that you´ve missed them. This 7" is outstanding for sure. It contains some of the best recordings and songs DUDMAN ever did. I think these recordings are backdated to 1998, that means Nate, their later singer didn't take part in them yet.
The songs are slightly different than their recent outputs. Still fast as hell but kind of cleaner. Not that noisy and distorded. The vocals are more clearly than Nathaniel vocal work. Definately a classic on Rhetoric records.
Aaaah right... The split side: CRUEL FACE from Brasil. Well this band could be good if they´d play their blast parts a little bit longer. Slow to average fast Hardcorepunk with very few good fast parts. All in all kind of boring to me. Another split 7" I have because of one side, but this side is more than worth.

SFN - Demo

Here are the reasons why I uploaded this record. First off: The music is amazing. Harsh powerviolence with an ultra raw demo production (in fact this IS the 7" version of the `fouled nest´ demo!). Second reason: the layout and all frills of this records is a total rip off. 625 has done an awful job here. Just a cardboard, no titles, you have to guess the songs by the lyrics which is almost impossible. Thx to the band I know the titles in the right order by now, so I was able to tag the songs right. Last but not least, limited to only 300 copies bla bla... Now for the music: Like I said SFN play total harsh powerviolence in the vain of IRON LUNG but faster. Less slow parts mainly blastbeats. This is truly the new generation - half your age and twice as good as your band. I added the crappy outro just to make this 7" complete. It really sucks. I recommend deleting it to spare discspace. Now go listen to the punishing demo songs of Something for Nothing. I think think this is what SFN stands for.

DEAD SEA FUCKING SCROLLS - Split w/ HANGOVER HEARTATTACK

File under: Records my girlfrind hates so much! This means ist 7" is really really really harsh!! Both bands play total insane power violence. DEAD SEA FUCKING SCROLLS are even more fucked up than HANGOVER HEARTATTACK. They place a lot of blast / grind parts into their desonant but complex noise attack. You won´t be able to understand a single word of the pissed, overdriven vocals. I am not even sure if I tagged their songs right! HANGOVER HEARTATTACK are slightly softer. Hahaha, did I say softer?? Only compared to DSFS because they sound less desonant!! Hyperspeed, noisy, insane and desperate sounding power violence. If you dig british noise grind violence like NARCOSIS (rip) this will get you a hard-on. Released by very small, British hc / grind label FORCE FED RECORDS!

INSECT WARFARE - Split w/ FLAGITIOUS IDIOSYNCRASY IN THE DILAPIDATION



First off: These are the best INSECT WARFARE recordings I ever heard soundwise! Recorded in 2008 it´s an awsome sound a lot of grindcore bands would dream of. Their songs list ends with a coverversion of 324s "New roation", one of the best grindcorebands in the world!! F.I.D. is an Japanese all girl grindcoreband an I swear you wouldn´t recognise. I admit that I started to grin because of the growls of the frontgirl! Don´t get me wrong they do their job well!
This solid 7" comes with issue #19 of the "Short fast & loud" magazine. One of the best HC / Power violence / Grindcore magazines around!

LOADED FOR BEAR - Split w/ HALF GORILLA

Shit, what a bastard collaboration!! When I first listend to this 7" I started with the HALF GORILLA an I was blown away but then I switched to the LOADED FOR BEAR side and I was like: "Holy shiat, what´s that????" LOADED FOR BEAR are even better!!!
Top notch heavily pissed power violence grind from both bands!! Cool, angry lyrics with explanations for every song, great! This split 7" is so hard, it took 3 record labels to realease it! Namely: Background noise media corps, Hip kid records and Halo of flies. It comes with a cool backside foldout cover, badly cut out cardboard. Totally DIY.
You may download this record here but you have to buy this fucker or the bear and the gorilla are going to rip you apart!

RETALIATION - Bad bad news! :-(

Bad news in the RTLN camp:

"Vocalist Carlsson has been diagnosed with MS (Multiple Sclerosis).

We've known for quite some time that he's been feeling like a big pile of crap and hasn't really been up to par with his body. Now we know why.
Due to this we've decided to cancel all shows, planned and unplanned, from now to discuss how to move to the next level.
We will however continue making music and recording shit.
Our thoughts go out to him at this point and hopes he'll feel better soon.

For those who dont know what MS is, this is from Wikipedia:
Multiple sclerosis (abbreviated MS, also known as disseminated sclerosis or encephalomyelitis disseminata) is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system (CNS), leading to demyelination. It may cause numerous physical and mental symptoms, and often progresses to physical and cognitive disability."

After the amazing album SNIFFING GLUE keep us hooked with this worthy follow up 7". Chaotic, pissed, snotty hardcore punk. Cutting chainsaw guitars, catchy singalongs. Great great great!
300 copies have been pressed by Search of fame records. No need to say, that they were sold within weeks, good luck getting one of the orginal copies. Now Markus from Per Koro records has released a repress on his sublabel Barfight records. Go get this 7" if you didn´t get the orginal. The record is incredibly good and Markus is worth the support!

EA80 - Mixtape

The recent 7" by flawless German cult punk band EA80. I am one of the lucky 600 people who had the opportunity buying this record from the band at one of their shows. That means I won´t have to pay horrible prices at ebay and I don´t have to go down on some asshole collector to get a copy. Yes of course this one is sold out. I realized some people at the EA80 show saying that they just bought it to sell it at ebay. I hate those scumfucks. You have to love this record and I´m not going to sell it ever. What makes this record so lovable? Well it was simply made with love so it seems. Side A contains 2 Songs. Both songs run at the same time in two parallel spines. How awsome is that? (I thing Fucked up did such a gimmick as well didn´t they?) No flipping sides anymore ;-) Side B has an etching done by Martin, singer of the band. Well this 7" is limited to 600 copies, but instead of handwritten numbers ever copy has the songtitles handwritten on the back. In fact on the tape case, which is printed on the backcover. Amazing idea, even better than numbers.
Now enjoy the two awesome songs. "Mixtape" a bitter sweet symphony full of melancholy and "Wer will mich daran hindern" is a fast punkrock smasher!

They were friendly until I told them that I´m from Germany. From there on I never got any reply again. Thats fucked up, yeah.

SEX VID - Nests



New SEX VID 7". Kinda disapointment compared to the first 2 singles. If SEX VID hadn´t released 2 groundbreaking 7"es, this one could have been an awsome release. But as a follow up it´s just not enough. 2 short fast tracks and 1 stoner styled song, not bad though I hate slow music. Side A 2:30 min and side B 3:30 ain´t long enough neither.
Released by Dom America, the label that also released SEX VIDs limited live tape. Some shitheads already paid 26 $ for this records though it was still available everywhere except for the label. Stupid losers!

Exhumed are even better as I remembered their lately albums on Relapse. Less metal more speed.That´s more like it! Pure deathgrind, holy shit!

VA - Town of hardcore

[copy n paste]Between 2002 and 2005, Town Of Hardcore fanzine covered bands like Fucked Up, No Warning, Haymaker, Mental, Think I Care, Terror, Violent Minds, Knife Fight, Righteous Jams, Mind Eraser, Iron Boots and more, plus recycled old interviews with bands like COC, Neos, Brotherhood, Straight Ahead, etc. There were also tour diaries, show and record reviews and plenty more that kept this zine fresh every time.[/copy n paste] Issue # 6 contained a 7" with some of the best bands featured in the zine until that point. The main reason why I bought that fanzine is the exclusive HAYMAKER song taken from the "Lost tribe" recording session.
Talking of exclusive tracks. All 9 songs ought to be exclusive tracks featuring following bands: VIOLENT MINDS, PUNCH IN THE FACE, MENTAL,R`N´R, HAYMAKER, FUCKED UP, THINK I CARE, KNIFE FIGHT and SO IT BE. If that ain´t a helluva package! I guess this is the reason why the price of this 7" + fanzine smashes the roof at ebay.
I don´t know if they are still unreleased elsewhere by now. Ah before I forget: This compilation contains some really cool coverversions! VIOLENT MINDS do a Poison Idea cover, KNIFE FIGHT Negative Fx and the outta range cover is from Creedence Clearwater Revival played by R`N´N !!!!
My personal winner on this record is.... I guess I don´t have to tell. ;-)

INSECT WARFARE - Split w/ HATRED SURGE

As I wrote in the INSECT WARFARE R.i.p. posting this is a farewell posting to one of the best grindcorebands ever. I could spend a lot of words on what INSECT WARFARE was all about, but if you didn´t realized them by now you wouldn´t deserve this anyway. Well they ain´t gone yet but they are playing their last show in june.
On the splitside we have the grindcore duo HATRED SURGE also from Texas. This band appears in other line up on their other releases though. This is not a typical splitside band. They do their grindjob well. Maybe some of you already recognized them from their Split Lp with the famous THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE on Schizophrenic Records. The also collaborated with labels like 625 Thrash and Painkiller Records. Those 2 outstanding Grindcorebands make this a awsome Split 7" for fans of extreme music. Like I said before: You can´t go wrong with RSR releases nowadays.

TOMORROW - Nuovo punto di partenza



Japan meets Italy. Italy style thrashcore played by 4 Japanese Kids. Even the lyrics are in Italian language. This seems to be a discography cd including recordings from 1995 to 1999. The cd comes in an 7"x7" size booklet often typical for Japanese cds. This booklet contains the lyrics translated in to English and Japanese and typical low budget punk layout. I really dig 80s Italothrash and these guy play it as well as the orginals. Fast, pissed, semi melodic an chaotic. Great stuff. They also appear on a 625 compilation and this label fits! This reminds me of the L´ Amico di martucci records.

ANAAL NATHRAKH - Eschaton + Hell is empty

Quasi ein Request von unserem Blog Kollegen Pabst Benedikt vom Am I mean Blog. Dies ist das Album durch das ich ANAAL NATHRAKH überhaupt erst kennengelernt habe, daß aber nicht nur mich umgehauen hat, sondern mit dem ich auch den Chris von den Qualitäten dieser Industrial - Black Metal - Grind Band überzeugen konnte. Hyperblast and Hyperblast (Drum Computer), kreischende Industrial Gitarren und ein fast unmenschlicher Kreischgesang! Was dieses ultraharte Genüppel auflockert und von anderen Extrembands abhebt ist der sporadisch eingestreute melodische / heroische Gesang auf den einige nicht klar kommen, mich aber in Verzückung versetzt. Viele Bands, die in dieser Geschwindigkeit spielen, klingen brutal, okay, aber Anaal Nathrakh zu hören tut echt weh! Das meine ich im positiven Sinne. Das Duo, daß sich bei ihren Liveauftritten durch Celebrities wie zB Shane Embury (Napalm Death) verstärkung holt, hat sich sofort zu eine meinen absoluten Lieblingsbands entwickelt. Eigentlich wollten Chris und ich auf ihr lang angekündigtes Konzert nach London fliegen, aber genau an dem Tag bin ich mal wieder auf eine von 4 Hochzeiten dieses Jahr eingeladen. Und das wollte ich nicht absagen.
Aber egal, interessiert keine Sau. Here comes "Eschaton". Unbedingt den Überhit "Between shit an piss we are born" anchecken!!
Ach ja, "Eschaton" ist neben dem Album "Domine non es dignus" die einzige Veröffentlichung von A.N. das es auf Vinyl gibt, aber dazu mehr beim "Hell is empty" Post...

Hier das akuelle Album von ANAAL NATHRAKH, auf das ich mich seit "Eschaton" gefreut habe wie ein Kind auf den Weihnachtsmann. Die neuen Songs sind noch besser produziert und abwechslungsreicher. Mitlerweile nutzen A.N. an einigen Ecken tiefe Growls was dieses abartige, unmenschliche Geschreie des Sängers V.I.T.R.I.O.L. etwas Variation verleiht. Lustig finde ich die Ausflüge in die deutsche Sprache im Song "Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen" [sic] auch wenn Chris das bis heute nicht raushören kann ;-). Vom Sound her sind A.N. auf dem aktuellen Album etwas vom Industrial weg. Die Gitarren sind konventioneller / metallastiger geworden, was ich persönlich sogar begrüße. Ich hatte nach dem "Eschaton" Album hohe Erwartungen und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht, "Hell is empty and all devils are here" knallt ohne Ende. Ich habe Mick Kenny, Mastermind hinter ANAAL NATHRAKH und bandeigener Produzent und Labelchef gefragt, wie es mit einer Vinylversion des Albums auf seinem Label Feto Records, daß er zusammen mit Shane Embury betreibt aussieht. Seine eigenartige Antwort war, daß das (meines Erachtens erfolgreiche) Label dafür zZt kein Geld hat. Aber irgendwann soll das Album auch auf Vinyl erscheinen. Ich frage mich warum sie das Album nicht einfach wie schon "Eschaton" lizensieren. Naja egal, das hat für mich persönlich zufolge, daß ich noch warte bis es "Hell is..." auf schwarzem Gold gibt, bis ich sie mir selber kaufe. Bis dahin wird halt diese digitale Version bis zum Erbrechen durchgenudelt und besonders der Song "The final absolution".
Viel Spazz damit:

NO FATE Vol 1 - World Hardcore Compilation

NO FATE compilation Teil 1! Die anderen Teile bekommt ihr problemlos auf diversen anderen Blogs, u.a. dem Am I mean Blog der rechts verlinkt ist. Ich beglücke euch deswegen mit dem ersten Teil, der weltweiten Compilation von der es mittlerweile vier Stück gibt. Tja was soll ich sagen, der Name "World Hardcore Compilation" sagt eigentlich alles. 42 Bands aus 7 Länder, wobei das Ursprungsland dieses Sampler; nämlich Japan mit den meisten Bands vertreten ist. Desweiteren sind noch teils mehr oder weniger bekannte Bands aus USA, Jugoslawien (1995 gab es das noch ;-)), Spanien, Schweden, Deutschland und Brasilien vertreten. Die bekanntesten Vertreter sind wohl THE GAIA + SLIGHT SLAPPERS aus Japan und SNAP-HER + MASSKONTROLL + FINAL CONFLICT + IN/HUMANITY + NAKED AGGRESSION aus den Staaten. "Uns" vertreten MUZLEBASTARDS, die mit ihrem Song im Gegensatz zu ihrem Album echt noch klar gehen. Standart halt... Rausgekommen ist die Cd im Dezember 1995 auf dem wohl mit bekanntesten japanischen HC / Punk Label HG FACT. Die Soundqualitäten schwanken zwischen Demokrach und bodenständiger bis guten Produktion. Ich habe die Cd mit 192 K/bits gerippt. Selbst mit mehr k/bits würde die Cd nicht besser klingen. Da ist nicht mehr zu holen. Punk halt, nech?
Ich musste die Cd in zwei Datein teilen, da sie sonst zum uppen zu groß wäre.
