WHOLE WORLD WEPT - END SUMMER SAMPLER 26 I just spent some time with the new END SUMMER SAMPLER 26 from Philadelphia’s WHOLE WORLD WEPT, and this is exactly the kind of release that hits hard from the first seconds. Three short tracks packed with crushing death metal, slam, deathcore and hardcore energy, with a raw and nasty feel throughout. There’s no wasted time here. GNAW THE PANIC immediately sets the tone with its aggressive attack, while, …EAT THE PAIN pushes the brutality even further before COURT ON THE STREET (OUTRO) closes things out with a dark final hit. The production sounds massive without taking away from the underground character of the music. Only three tracks, but they definitely leave their mark. If you’re into brutal death metal, slam, deathcore and hardcore influenced heaviness, WHOLE WORLD WEPT are worth checking out. Real deal heavy shit from Philadelphia.

I remember posting a very short review of their first album, Into the Mouth of Hell, on the old blog sometime around mid-2014. That record completely blew my fucking mind. It was the kind of genuine ’90s metallic hardcore that instantly took me back to that era. Yesterday, I got a message from the band, and it honestly made my day. I listened to the new album on my way home, and once again, it completely blew my fucking mind. So, here’s a review of the latest from Decadence.

There is a dirty, edge throughout the release that gives it character and keeps...

KEEP HARDCORE VIOLENT is a new I Love Mosh compilation series built around one simple idea: bringing together active bands from different corners of the underground and putting their heaviest, most brutal material in one place. From the first track to the last, this compilation represents the energy, diversity, and raw attitude that keep hardcore alive. Different countries, different styles, and different approaches, but the same underground spirit. No trends, no competition, just bands doing their thing and keeping the music moving forward.

Hailing from the Basque Country, BITTIN’ BACK deliver a raw hardcore attack on Pigs in the Mud. The EP is driven by crushing riffs, heavy grooves and an aggressive vocal delivery that keeps the energy hostile from beginning to end. There’s a strong DIY spirit throughout, balancing an old-school hardcore attitude with a heavier, more contemporary edge. Short and direct, Pigs in the Mud is a solid release from a band that clearly understands the power of keeping hardcore raw and loud. BITTIN’ BACK - PIGS IN THE MUD Spotify Instagram

Formed in Kobe, Japan around 2000, IMMORTALITY were one of the darker and heavier names to emerge from the Japanese hardcore underground at the turn of the millennium. Their sound fused the blunt-force groove and physicality of beatdown hardcore with the brutality and darker atmosphere of death metal, creating a punishing hybrid that was difficult to categorize but impossible to ignore. IMMORTALITY delivered a seriously heavy statement with I Think Therefore I Am, a four-track release that captures the darker, more metallic side of early-2000s beatdown hardcore. The riffs are thick and abrasive, moving between crushing mid-tempo grooves, heavy breakdowns and bursts of aggressive metallic intensity without losing the raw physicality of hardcore. I Think Therefore I Am is the kind of release that fits perfectly into the darker side of the early Japanese hardcore/beatdown underground. Immortality - I Think Therefore I Am (2001)  Beatdown / Metallic Hardcore / Death Metal from Kobe, Ja...

Blunt Force Trauma’s Vengeance For Nothing is a straight-up slab of heavy, groove driven hardcore. Originally released in 2012, the EP leans heavily into the 90s beatdown mentality, with thick guitar work, stomping rhythms, brutal breakdowns and vocals delivered with a raw, confrontational edge. There’s a noticeable death metal influence in the vocals and overall heaviness, but the heart of the release remains firmly rooted in hardcore.

Olympia, Washington’s GREATSWORD NW deliver a nasty dose of stripped-down beatdown hardcore with Punish Game. Built on thick, stomping riffs, mosh & heavy grooves and a hostile attitude, this is the kind of hardcore that doesn’t waste time trying to impress, it’s here to hit hard. GREATSWORD NW keep things firmly rooted in the oldschool beatdown mentality, where the riff comes first and every groove feels engineered for maximum pit damage. There’s a rawness that recalls the tougher side of late ’90s hardcore. Punish Game is short, mean and straight to the point. GREATSWORD NW are definitely a band worth keeping an eye on.
