Here we have a digital/  split EP bringing together two walls. One is decidedly pop/grit-bound from the UK’s  Spent Stiletto,  and the other thicker/ cruder buffeting weather-bound affair from USA’s No Fun Harsh Noise Wall. Each wall hits dead on the ten-minute mark.

With only a handful of releases spread over their twenty plus year career, Peru's Evil Damn treat us with a new mini LP from Hells Headbangers, Eons of Horror. Five tracks of classic, old school death metal, Eons mixes far-reaching and catchy death with angry, throaty vocals and propulsive drumming, capturing that old school vibe and aggression. Their first new material since their 2021 full length debut, Necronomicon, Evil Damn continue with the Lovecrafian/occult themes that pervade not only the runtime of the MLP, but are extra present in the ripping, ritualistic cover art.

Here we have a wall noise split, which is apparently themed around Orthodox Schema monk outfits. Each project serves up around fifteen minutes of crudely droning ‘n’ choppy wall matter. Featured here are Oregon’s Pink Wool, who are fairly new. And Poland’s Sado  Ritual, who have been active since 2019, releasing two hundred plus releases.

Glimmers of Hope is a recent mini-album from the Polish wall noise project Olion. Each of the two tracks featured slides in at dead on the fifteen-minute mark- both are fairly bass-focused affairs, with crackle-bound toppings.

How To Have Fun is the second release from Lea  Cummings( Kylie Minoise, Official Music Team, etc), lo-fi/ outsider folk project King Futile.  It takes in another eight tracks, and really, it sees him pushing even further the tongue-in-cheek/ glum/ sarcastic lyrical edge.

Devil Times Five is an early 70’s mix of killer kid thriller and slasher. It starts fairly campy/ soapy, before slowly but surely getting more mean-spirited/bleak, before diving into a truly nihilistic resolve. It features a decent selection of both victims and killers,  a snowy setting, and one or two fairly impressive low-fi gore effects. Here from 88 Films, as part of their Slasher Classic Collection, is a Blu-ray release of the film. It takes in both new and archive extras, including a brand new commentary track from slasher-loving podcast  The Hysteria Continues.
