Album Notes

ORDER OF THE GASH bust instrumental thrash licks with astounding precision. Their
fierce sometimes melodic songs reveal a sick sense of humor, especially during
maniacal blood soaked performances.

SLAM DUNK (WITH AUTHORITY!) plaster finger tapping power metal guitar stylez,
blasting crust rhythms and mangled vocals onto your eardrum. Recorded with Joshua Hughes of Rabbits at his studio, The Fairy Cave. Party ’til you’re Pete!


SLAM DUNK (with authority!) / ORDER OF THE GASH - split 12″

Portland metal split - ORDER OF THE GASH play instrumental thrash /
metal that switches from full-on, chugging chaos to intricate and subtly
layered melodic parts and it’s all played really fuckin well too and the
vocal-free-ness of it all works really well for me, the greatness of this
could so easily be fucked up with the wrong vocals (for me, anyway) so
I’m glad they just rip instrumentally. Killer song titles too: ‘Quivering
Cunt Muscle’, ‘Rigor Mortis On The Rocks’, ‘Obsessive Repulsive’ etc…

SLAM DUNK (with authority!) do have vocals but I dig them! They have a
wilder edge than ORDER OF THE GASH…a really DIY metal edge that I
really like. It’s really heavy and mangled and as one of their song titles
states’ Nonstop Brutality’…I think they actually steal the split for me…and
I was convinced it would be ORDER OF THE GASH because that’s the side
I listened to first and was won over straight away…so thumbs up all
round for sure on this. Killer looking limited sliver sceened cover and
there’s a CD version in here too for any lamos without a turntable…
although having said that I did use the CD in my car – but only because
there’s no record player in there!
