thank you.

Saw this just after I ordered from the label.  Can't wait to get it.

My first exposure to Blood was the split with Agathocles.  I really like those crude, heavy, plodding tracks.  Caveman shit.  Christbait was like that too, if I remember correctly.  Are there any other bands that play style?

Song sample for Sinthgunt can be heard on the Perished Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-516363096

Both releases available this Saturday, 12PM EST.

Thanks.

[Fudoh: The New Generation]

True detective season 2

Hmmm, I really tried with that one -

Personally I've blown way too much $ on movies in the past few weeks. one of the new ones I got was Takashi Miike's "Fudoh: The New Generation" which was fucking bonkers. my friend and I kept asking ourselves how we had gotten this far in life without seeing it sooner. pretty much everything is nuts, but my favorite was the girl who can shoot darts out of a dart tube in her pussy. it's amazing and you need to see it to believe it. she later turns out to have a dick and fucks some other hot chick. tons of people die as violently as possible. it's great!

I need to find a copy of this I forgot about it.  Full metal Yakuza was great with how wild it got but this sounds fun

Been really into those BLOOD demo LPs that NWN reissued last year-ish - would love to see more of this kind of stuff - I’m going to have to hit the early Agathocles demos as well.

In particular the “Spasmo Paralytic Dreams” demo is super savage!!

Eagerly awaiting the Crawl Noise LP from FOAD as well!!!!!

[Fudoh: The New Generation]

True detective season 2

Hmmm, I really tried with that one - I wasn’t crazy about season 3 either. But thank you for your support.

I didn't think season 2 was as bad as everyone made it out to be but I do think it shouldn't have been "True Detective", it should have just been its own mini-series. and they should have done a lot less of those overhead highway shots. But I thought Season 3 was really great because it starts as what feels like a retread but then becomes its own thing.

[Maki Asakawa - Maki Asakawa]

Maki Asakawa - Maki Asakawa CD - Honest Jon's - my mom got this for me as a gift a few years ago. she heard about it on NPR and thought I'd like it. a thoughtful and unexpected surprise, and a damn good compilation to boot. Asakawa is the kind of singer who immediately conjures images of dinging nightclubs, Yakuza bars and heroic bloodshed. ambience somewhere between the films Seijun Suzuki, Jean-Pierre Melville and John Woo. the blues-y tracks are my favorites, with the psychedelic folk ones coming in second. then there are the relatively brighter folk and pop(pier) tracks that do less for me but fit in the structure of the comp. and everything benefits from being unable to understand the lyrics. I've yet to to start picking up her albums from '70s just yet but will probably take the dive soon

No recommendations except to say that this track, which I think is on that comp, nails a certain smoked out sultry sumptuousness for which I am consummate sucker-
