For #GrindayFriday this week, an LP that just came out in 2019, but one that should probably already be considered a grind classic. Ichikawa, Japan's FAILED TREATMENT don't fuck around when it comes to the gross and depraved. Lots of that here. Guitars have a really great, truly grindy sound. Very riffy. Roaring, bellowed vocals. Love that in grind. And the DRUMS.

Here's Failed Treatment's 'Spread of Infection' LP from 2019. https://failedtreatment.bandcamp.com/album/spread-of-infection

We had the chance to interview symphonic metalcore band FATHOMLESS SKYWALKER and review their debut album "Anthems of the Resilient". Many thanks to JPU Records!

Interview with FATHOMLESS SKYWALKER: “We would be so happy if our music could become a part of the world that each of you carries within yourself”

"With their humanoid costumes and androgynous appearance, JILUKA look like aliens who have been beamed down to Earth and they play with a mechanical precision which suggests that they are not of this world."

METALVERSE
Well, another project to put my faith on after #Babymetal. Their 2 songs are really nice and hope they will release their recordings soon. So I should make a space in my music collection in the future

Loving the additional song "Things Infestation" that COFFINS just put up from their upcoming new record 'Sinister Oath' that comes out in just two weeks on March 29. That makes three songs up for preview now and I'm psyched to hear the rest.

This one's gonna be a contender.

I have to say:
#Isiliel new song is so amazing...
She is way better than #Necronomidol IMHO
She is now, for me, the highest dark idol inside Japanese scenes. I respect her
