Necessarily, Goodbye Cruel World is a marked occasion. This sprawling 57 track homage to the one of the earliest and longest-standing torchbearers of American grindcore finds the band operating in the hideous, blinding sort of energy that was their live show. It is worth noting that nowhere on this CD does the band appear to be coming apart at the seams, imploding, or hacking the songs up like many a noise-grind bands tended to. Sure, Kevin Sharp is frothing at the mouth, Lilker and Gurn offer a naked, primitive tandemic rhythm (in the strictest sense of the word) and Rich Hoak's near god-like drumming are no-lose musical constructs. But the temptation to descend into a colorless din is duly resisted. In fact, the oddball creativity and studio excesses of Need To Control and Animal Kingdom rub well; these renditions are loose, comfortable interpretations of the originals...with the exception of the butchered "Ill-Neglect", but hey - 1 of 44 is a ratio I can live with. In that sense, it's an absolute appropriate summation of their musical trajectory: This is Brutal Truth: this is how they sounded then, this is how they feel about it now. Elsewhere, the band took their covers seriously. The Germs, Celtic Frost, Black Sabbath, the Boredoms, Agathocles, Melvins are dutifully sent through the band's bludgeoning tumbler, furbished with a unique understanding of Japanese grindcore, which glazed over much of their later material. Darby Crash would have been proud.

Among the studio tracks, I must nominate "No Sleep" as the superlative. They are, in general, strange little ditties with limited belonging (and not without good reason). Of course, if it's Brutal Truth, it's worth your attention anyway. For a band whose singer performed with Coke-bottle sized side-burns and a cowboy hat - you just knew they guys were functioning outside parameters. But alas, as the sun sets and the epitaphs are raised, what one must remember, and all one needs to know, can be summed up as thus: Brutal Truth wrecked the place.

Brutal Truth began as extreme grindcore, and created that well, but with this release have added inummerable gifts to the genre. Instead of being flat, basic, straightforward music, this is tonal and dynamic music, played with all of the ferocity and punkdom of the earlier material, and perhaps more, in that it has shed the elements of bad metal (predictability, reliance on blast beats) in favor of a more encompassing approach.
This album is more punk, in both feel and tonality, than the last one (even including a cover of the germs' "media blitz") but it hasn't lost the spirit of grindcore, of loving messy, simple, brutal music. The songs are still short, and there are some well-done noise tracks which complement the music rather than separate songs. The overall speed is not as consistently high, nor is it as fast, but speed is used where needed with great alacrity and precision.
This album crushes their first; where the first was flat speed rock, this is experimental, even daring, and very punk for the current crop of moronic grindcore.

Stepping back from the avantgarde edge of "Need to Control," Brutal Truth mix nontraditional grind factors as aesthetic complements and make the ashen, chromatic, directionless thrashing of their first album come together with some concept but mostly urgency and variation on form. The band have reconverged their sound upon a grindcore extreme of speed and almost schizophrenic complexity in this postmodern document of human despair. In contrast to the previous album, this is as demonstrative, immature and reactionary as their first album, which is similarly listenable for rhythm alone and in divergence from common form not of enough complexity to hold the attention of an experienced death/grind listener.

Hailing from the school of extreme grindcore (with roots in early Napalm Death and Discharge, along with a 90's sensability of noise influenced by Merzbow, among others), Brutal Truth probably leads to the forefront of bands with little subtle touch. Using dizzying time changes from blast beats to frantic rolls to occasional punkish beats, drummer Rich Hoak sets the pace. Some of the songs are so busy and blurred that they tend to blend together. The listener gets the impression of clustered riffing and feels like they're punching their way out of a paper bag. But occasionally (like on "Jemenez cricket"), Brutal Truth eases up and lets a little breathing space in (but not much).
Brutal Truth's lead grunter/screamer Kevin Sharp's vocals are another defining point to the band. From guttaral death grunts to shrill animalistic screams of agony, you know he ain't singing about falling in love and cruising Sunset Strip. Lyrically, his stream of consciousness mirrors bands like the Minutemen in spirit (especially in "Callous", where the entire lyrical mantra is "you are just callous/you will, will, will never see"...now that is to the point). The final track, "Prey", is twenty minutes of Sharp screaming "Prey" over a looped grind track, gradually building in distortion and noise. This will clear the arena of your choice. Heck, you might even follow.
Overall, this is a impenetrable barrage that is a difficult listen. There is enough undercurrent and raw savage aggression to appeal to the hardcore, death, and noise communities, but be prepared to spend several listens before the grind settles in.

Brutal Truth - Kill Trend Suicide

Released :: October 1, 1996
Length :: 33:51
Label :: Relapse Records
Producer :: Brutal Truth
Kill Trend Suicide is the fifth release by New York City band Brutal Truth. It was technically labelled as a 'mini-album' due to it being longer than an EP but not as long as a standard album.
1. Blind Leading The Blind
2. Pass Some Down
3. Let's Go To War
4. Hypocrite Invasion
5. Everflow
6. Zombie
7. Homesick
8. Humanity's Folly
9. I Killed My Family
10. Kill Trend Suicide


With about as much subtlety as knee to the groin, New York grindcore knuckle-draggers Brutal Truth cut another slew of "songs" containing "music" amid Kevin Sharp's petulant microphone molestation. But let's face it, subtlety never has been Brutal Truth's forte. Kill Trend Suicide renders me akin to the state I'm in several hours after putting my Germs records from the early 80's on 70 RPM, dropping some drexelyne, sweating like a maniac, and whipping my immediate environment into a violent frenzy. Neither of which can be terribly healthy. Before I perused the album's credits I had just assumed it was live; recorded in a single take, in someone's basement, with a single microphone, which probably fell over when the furniture started moving. Not so. Billy "Eyehategod" Anderson was indeed turning knobs at the helm, but the recording is so atrocious, one could not discern the fact anyway. Thematically DIYish, and presumably a back-handed homage to said punk influence, but all things considered, I have enough chaos in my life. Now, where'd I put those Tom Waits records...

Album Reviews:

#1:
One of the sloppy grind records everyone should own, Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses marked the entry of Brutal Truth into the world of caustic crust anger and rollicking hardcore punk grooves. Noisy and sometimes quite experimental, the record averages at least one sticky hook per song, ensuring the listener that they are listing to songs and not just blast beats and distortion. Kevin Sharpe (memorably slighted in an A.C. song title) provides the insane screeches and low death grunts that are now trademarks of the Brutal Truth experience. Songs are generally short, founded on angry (but somewhat uneventful) lyrics, insane snare blasts, power drill breaks (!) and yes, even somewhat musical doom metal riffing. The overall tone is on the hopeless and apocalyptic side of things, and not particularly focused on idealism or utopian fantasy. Unlike most political grind though, the songs are really quite catchy and on rare occasions almost melodic. Crusties, grinders, and noise connoisseurs would all find something to enjoy here, but then again, they probably already own the album. As for everyone else, the album is definitely sorta recommended, if for no other reason than the lyrics of "Blockhead", the requisite Black Sabbath cover, and opening sample of “Walking Corpse”.


#2:
To take grindcore to a further extreme, one had to face the tendency of the genre to drift toward overextensions of musical destruction and thus to dissipate into irrelevance, and in overcoming that to find a new technicality. Brutal Truth didn't on this album. Repeated patterns from the hallowed halls of fame of grind/hard/crustcore oblivion and high-speed repetitions of chromatic notes without harmonic or melodic composition produces an album that, thanks to intelligent guitar-drum interaction, is rhythmically compelling but devoid of artistic content. Pass this one by for their second.

New York City grindcore primitives Brutal Truth formed in 1990, originally comprising singer Kevin Sharp, guitarist Brent "Gurn" McCarthy, bassist Dan Lilker and drummer Scott Lewis. Signing to the Earache label, the group released its debut album Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses in 1992; drummer Rich H replaced Lewis to record the follow-up, 1994's Need to Control. Upon signing to Relapse, Brutal Truth resurfaced two years later with Kill Trend Suicide; Sounds of the Animal Kingdom followed in 1997, while 1999's Goodbye Cruel World compiled two discs of live material and rarities.

Noothgrush - Failing Early, Failing Often

NOOTHGRUSH - Failing Early, Failing Often

Slap A Ham( 2000 )

"Some of the most tortured sludgecore ever recorded! This collection of
studio sessions from 1995-1997 features 18 slow, painful dirges that
creep at geologic pace, but keep the track lengths pretty short (for this
sort of music, anyways). Released on the now-defunct Slap A Ham, this is a
posthumous collection of early recordings from eight sessions at
Trainwreck Studios, all of which is seminal hellish doom/sludge, less "swinging"
than the likes of Eyehategod or Weedeater, but not as abstract as Khanate
and Corrupted. Comp songs, their Slap A Ham Embraced By The Anti-Self 7",
split tracks, and the legendary Kashyyyk demo. This stuff will damage the
structural integrity of any building it's played in. Absolutely essential
for fans of burning witch and crossed out as well assunn O))) and
unearthly trance...".

REVIEW FROM IN MUSIC WE TRUST: "One way to appreciate music is to
understand the meter, or "time," it is performed in. For example, it might be "2/4
time," or "3/4 time" or "4/4 time." In the case of NOOTHGRUSH the music
is performed in "geological time." That's right, this is the band whose
riffs are so plodding that continental drift, by contrast, appears downright
hasty. Calling this music "slow" is like calling The Beatles "moderately
successful"-it's a definite understatement. "Failing Early, Failing
Often" is a posthumous collection of many (most? all?) of the early recordings
from these seminal and cranium-cracking lords of sludge. It includes songs
from several comps, their Slap A Ham 7", their split with BLACK ARMY JACKET,
and their "Kashyyyk" demo; which to this day remains one of my favorite
slowcore releases ever and is still able to undermine the structural integrity
of any building it is played in. Obviously influenced by bands like Grief,
NOOTHGRUSH, however, remain an unmistakable and vital band whose audio
carnage will be sorely missed (rumor has it the band was forced to
disband by the government who was tired of getting seismic readings in the 6
range every time NOOTHGRUSH played). In addition to all that, they are the
only band I have had a conversation with that included the words "Chewbacca
action-figure-holding bandolier." In the early 1990s the birth of seminal sludgelords Noothgrush laid to waste to the SF Bay Area. This trio spewed forth their molten musical magma over a span of eight years and carved a path of influence that resounds in the
quagmire of modern day slowcore. For the first time ever, their earliest
molasses-paced epics have been assembled on one disc. The collection
compiles material from their debut Slap A Ham seven-inch, as well as
split releases with Dead Bodies Everywhere, Agents Of Satan, and Black Army
Jacket, plus countless compilation tracks and their legendary Kashyyyk
demo!

If you dig the cranium-crushing sounds of Grief, the Melvins, or
Eyehategod, then you're prepared for only a fraction of the heaviness that
Noothgrush is prepared to deliver!

Noothgrush do more than play sludge. They are sludge. Everything about
this band oozes and crawls. Their music is as punishing and it is precise as
it is plodding. Lyrically they take concepts and ideas that in the hands
of lesser artists may seem silly (Star Wars) or overused (hate and
loathing) and they discover existential sociological and philosophical insight.
From one point of view in the extreme underground Noothgrush are hideously
deformed if for no other reason than they travel a route far less
taken; but from another perspective, and certainly one that I share, their
deformity is actually uniqueness and allows for the breeding of distinction. Y'see
there are only a handful of really stellar sludge bands around and Noothgrush
are among the best." -Jeb Branin, The Crass Menagerie"

Sea of Deprivation - Catharsis In Disharmony

The debut release from this Arizona 3 piece featuring members of Misanthropic. Lots of crossover in musical styles but this definitely leans towards the metal end of things, drawing influences from bands such as Carcass, ABC Diabolo, Assuck and Dystopia. Lyrics are both personal and political in a brutally honest way. This record never lets up for a second!


Album Reviews:
"Wow. Incredibly heavy destroying dark hardcore which blends Black Sabbath like heavy sludgy hardcore with grindcore, death metal, and crust. Mix in nihilistic political lyrics and you've got one hell of a sound! I didn't know what to think of this to begin with but this is a surprise favorite this issue!" (-Mangelslakt #3)

"From the ashes of Misanthropic arises Sea of Deprivation. Agonizing vocals, thick guitars, brutal drums and political lyrics. This is one kick ass LP! If you liked Misanthropic, and other bands like Dystopia, then this is right up your dark alley! Nine songs and a Disrupt cover. My friends and I agree, Sea of Deprivation rock! (DD/Heart Attack #29)

1.Hell Hath No Fury
2.Eco-Catastrohpe
