Black Pus, a.k.a. Brian Chippendale, is dropping a new, vinyl-only split LP with Oozing Wound, which is aptly titled Split LP. From what I understand, “Blood Will Run” is the first song to be dropped from it, and it’s absolutely nuts. It’s not quite as noisy

UK post-punk outfit Savages drop a cinematic live video of their recently released single, “Fuckers.” The footage is stunning, and the performance is, well, anything but concise.

The previously mentioned Odonis Odonis drops a new video that features some Terry Gilliam-esque animation from Lee Stringle.

Have A Nice Life’s highly anticipated followup to 2008’s Deathconsciousness is a heavy, dismal set of post-punk rockers and drone-y ballads.

SPLITT CASSETTE WITH BBIGPIGG by DESIGNER // BBIGPIGG Listen to some abrasive, experimental, lo-fi noise rock on this new split between Designer and Bbigpigg. While the mix and production here isn’t that friendly to the ears, these two projects are incredibly eccentric, groove-centry, and hilariously absurd. The herky/jerky quality
