Yacøpsæ - Tanz, Grozny, Tanz

2007; 25 tracks

Yacøpsæ was formed in August 1990 in Hamburg, Germany.

I really like this album, but that might just be because of "Frost."

Magrudergrind - Magrudergrind

2009; 16 tracks

I used to listen to a hell of a lot of grindcore and powerviolence back in the early years of my Last.fm. I was really into Nasum and Martyrdöd, but I came across some incredible stuff that I almost forgot about, like Magrudergrind. I'm on my old computer so it's all here for me to sift through... ANYWAY.

Magrudergrind is a grindcore/powerviolence group from District of Colombia. As a respected grindcore group who create meaningful and incredible music, Magrudergrind's self-titled is nearly unprecedented in the world of powerviolence. The first track might be my favorite grindcore track in the world, too.

Punch is a female-fronted San Francisco punk band playing fast and dirty hardcore in the vein of RAMBO, Mouthpiece, and Rorschach. The music of Punch is genuinely INCREDIBLE. Short, fast, to the point, these intense tracks are powerful kicks to the stomach and, as so eloquently described by Last.fm, recognizable by a "fast, heavy sound with pulverizing breakdowns, intelligent song structures and absolutely plastering vocals." The vocals are definitely my favorite part... "If Not Me" off the s/t is a great track.

Gasp - Drome Triler Of Puzzle Zoo People

1998; 16 tracks

This is one of the most beautiful powerviolence albums I've ever heard. From the beginning to the end it is a masterpiece.
