BLACK MARKET FETUS / BRODY'S MILITIA - "Unhindered by Scum" split EP
Right away I noticed the cover as a parody of NAPALM DEATH's Scum art. Oddly enough the artwork seems to depict a concert for the dead masses and the band names of of some crappy heavy and classic rock bands all over. Odd...even a HAWKWIND t-shirt on some sort of dead dude. Right, the music-well, looking at the track listing, there is another hint of a semi-tribute to early grindcore. Each band plays a couple originals but in addition, BLACK MARKET FETUS does a cover of NAPALM DEATH'S "Human Garbage" and BRODY'S MILITIA does covers of SORE THROAT's "The Crossover is Over" and "The Return of the Son of the Crossover is Over." Both bands rip through some great new grindcore tracks. Good stuff. (MH)

THE LIONS RAMPANT - "It's Fun to Do Bad Things" CD
You probably only need one image to picture what the music sounds like on this CD. Fortunately, it is on the back cover. Three shirtless guys standing on the roof of one of those '70's-style custom vans while fireworks go off in the background. If that doesn't do it for you, I'll spell it out. The music is Southern-tinged hard rock. One song has "cocaine" in the title and another has "gin" in its title. Yawn. (CK)
