My personal top eleven favorite kick ass rock n' roll releases of 2023.

In alphebetical order:
AHULABRUM “Strange Lights Portend Their Presence” LP (Ixiol) - Found footage + field recordings of various unexplained bipedal creature sightings. Obscure black metal + noisecore idiocy at its finest.

AUTOPSY “Ashes, Organs, Blood and Crypts” LP (Peaceville) and CANNIBAL CORPSE “Chaos Horrific” LP (Metal Blade) - The two undisputed heavyweight champions of death metal are still kicking all the asses. In an era of disposable copycat tribute plagiarists, why not just go directly to the source? Excellent new albums from both of these old heroes.

DIPYGUS “Wet Market” CD (Headsplit) - Cryptid-obsessed weirdo death thrashers from parts unknown. As seen on "In Search Of".

FACE TASTER “Booger” CD (Wheelchair Full Of Old Men) and FOOD FORTUNATA “I Am Time’s Bitch” CD (Wheelchair Full Of Old Men) - Two of my favorite releases from one of the longest running and most intellectually-powerful independent music labels on the planet. A living legend of underground absurdity still delivering authentic creativity.

GOATMOON “What Once Was Shall Be Again” CD (Werewolf) - Epic and ornery fruit basket black metal from Finland. This is the kind of stuff that requires being an unapologetic dipshit to enjoy while standing drunk and naked atop a craggy hilltop with your beard blowing in the wind for the glory of Satan.
GORE BEYOND NECROPSY "Noise-A-GoGo" LP Classic 90's blastcore freakout from Japan lovingly reissued on vinyl by infamous New York turd peddler. More fun than shoving your pecker in a blender.

LEPROPHILIAC “Gein” CD (Rescued From Life) - The lowest and dirtiest of the dirty death metal lowlifes craft a fantastic concept album! So fucking heavy but also very memorable; ain't no boring color-by-numbers bullshit here. Sounds like it was recorded in the attic of Ed's house. Makes a nice educational counterpiece to MACABRE's classic "Dahmer" album. For fans of disembodied human genitals in a jar of formaldehyde.

MALOKARPATAN “Vertumnus Caesar” LP (Anja Offensive) - Brilliant black metal meets prog rock meets old heavy metal mutant celebration of imagination. This sort of genre mash-up usually results in corny ham-fisted failure but these Slovakian freaks get the formula fucking perfect. All the best aspects of their different musical influences have been beautifully hacked together with the skill needed to deliver something new and interesting. Music for drinking beer with trolls in the woods at midnight!

RUPTURE “Boys, Nuns, Bottles & Cunts” CD (Rescued From Life) - Totally belligerent + hilarious punk rock classic reissued with tons of crucial bonus tracks! Every song is an offensively catchy anthem of idiot outrage. Thin skin and virgin ears? Look elsewhere. Recommended to anyone in need of something to listen to while drinking beer and smoking cigarettes under the overpass. There's zero chance you ain't gonna love this unless you're some sort of limpdick yuppie glamfuck wimp.
P.S. The Backwoods Butcher Online Fuckshop is closed for the winter. Back in action spring of 2024. In the meantime, you can still get most of my releases from WEAR & TEAR RECORDS. Thanks!
