Mad Disco Vibes from Young Robots

Fashen's So Complete EP came out in May of this year to solid reviews, he's been tearing up the DJ scene for over a decade and believe it or not, this was his first solo release of original work.  Today we've been blessed with a four track remix EP from Young Robots.  With flips from Solidisco, Sammy Bananas, Bang Noyes, and (Thee) Mike B that range from down tempo to sexy Chicago house to dancey disco vibes.  Fashen's been holding down Dim Mak Sunday's here in LA for quite some time so we're stoked his work behind the decks translates so well into fully produced original tracks...and hot damn!  He's inspired some pretty impressive remixes on top of that!  My personal fav has to be Sammy Bananas' slow and funky groove...y'all know I'm stoked on that top-down feel.  It's the type of track I'd slam into my cassette deck on a hot summer night whilst driving my 1991 IROC-Z with the t-tops off...and I'd be pulling all the fine ass tail.  This thing is hot!  Buy it RIGHT HERE...previews below.  Oh and make sure to grab the original RIGHT HERE!

Back to the Clubhouse!

Following the innovative pattern of releasing that nu nu shit for free to the masses, Fool's Gold records brings forth the second coming of their Clubhouse series (see Volume 1 RIGHT HERE).  I guess they've realized the best way to get some much needed exposure for their underrated new artists is to compile them together in a bad ass release and drop it for free!!  Much appreciated y'all.  Kicking things off with this Baauer remix is definitely the right way to go and the FG heads prove they've got tracks for days including a HUGE bass track from Starkey, some stupid fresh vibes from Fashen, and the radical driving kick drum of Chambray.  All tracks are free downloads via soundcloud so just click that little down arrow y'all.

Don't Be Shy 005 with ROTTEN RALPHIE

Back again with the next episode of "Don't Be Shy", our informative monthly podcast where we here at MTH strive to get the coolest stories out of some of our favorite moombahton heavy hitters.  This month we talked to the one and only Rotten Ralphie, co-founder of Rot10 Musik and all around pretty swell dude considering the name.  We chatted with Ralph about all things Rot10 as well as his forthcoming projects, his history in the music biz, and of course we had to ask him about Mystereo.  It's a pretty fun convo and I'm sure you'll learn a lesson or two from it so listen now!!

Monday, Monday...can't touch that day

My belly is full and yet I still hunger for some brand spanking new music!!  I know some of y'all feel the same so I'm compiling yet another list of dope chunes from the realms of my soundcloud dashboard.  From my PC to your ears, I'm trying to keep you up to date with some of our favorite producers and sounds here at MTH; it's been a Monday tradition for many weeks so let's keep it alive shall we??  Today I've got tracks from Buraka Som Sistema, Steed Lord, gLAdiator and more!  Keep a keen eye out for the free downloads--as always, I tried to work in as many as possible.

Here's a fierce remix from that dude D!rty Aud!o...turn the volume up to 11 for this one, it's SLAMMIN! FREE DOWNLOAD

What you know about H-Town??...naw fool, not the boy band...I'm talking bout HOUSTON. I've never been but the rap game there set it off a few years back and now gLAdiator and Chromatic have swooped up a great lyric from the tallest dude in the business Slim Thug and created a squeaky, bit-smashed dab of glory and guess what?? It's FREEEEEEEEEEE.

Here's a little prog-moombahton from UK producer Harikiri...it's a tad bit lurky which I'm always stoked about and super dark. DIG IT! It's dropping in 2 weeks on Ninthwave Records so be on the look out folks!

Speaking of "lurky" here's a low down bass track all the way outta the windy city. Nader flipped up Juicy J and dropped the son'bitch for FREE DOWNLOAD.

Global bass innovators Buraka Som Sistema are taking their unreal live show on the road in North America in August (including a stop at HARD Summer) and to get folks hyped they're giving away a new track for the best price of all $0. That's right, grab this kuduro heater for FREE and get ready for your mind to be blown.

Are you down with French dance tracks?? I am for sure so I'm always stoked to see the Blisters Boyz in my feed. This one is a sure fire slice of techy goodness with enough bongos to make me happy, it's dropping August 22nd on Birth Records so make sure to buy it then k?? Thanxbi.

Love holding down PDX producers and I really enjoy giving a little cred to the Think2wice Records family. Here's a new track from Ben Tactic which I'm sure will make you thirsty as you're sweating it up on the dance floor. Superbly bubbly with a nice and heavy kick drum throughout and guess what?? It's a FREE DOWNLOAD. Hot damn!! Grab it.

Annnnnnd back to the moombahton...or should I say, back to the moombahsoul. Here's another free track from Phoenix young gun Decade who has been consistently putting out some fire over the last few months. This one is ambient and chirpy and is a perfect cool down track for the coming hot August nights in the Arizona desert.

My friends will tell you that--since I saw them open up for Chromeo back in the summer of 2008--Steed Lord is probably my favorite band out there right now. The baby of the bunch, Mr. Eddie House put together a disco flip of their latest single "Hear Me Now" and the band is kindly giving it away for FREE!!  Just like their FACEBOOK PAGE and click the free downloads tab.

After hearing the above remix I started down the soundcloud rabbit hole and discovered some long forgotten tracks from Eddie. Here's my favorite to wrap up today's blog.

So that's it for now kiddos!! Make sure to support all these producers by following them on soundcloud (give us a follow if you feel like it HERE) and of course check them out on their facebook pages (and ours RIGHT HERE). Hope you enjoy the free downloads, keep your browser pointed right here for more and more new music and other goodies!! Ta ta!

Feliz Cumpleaños MUNCHI

You ever heard of this dude??  Yeah I didn't think so.  So, introducing Munchi!  Naw just kidding...anyways, it's the dude's birthday so I thought it'd be dope to remind you of some of his finest work so far (many more hits to come I'm sure).  Not sure how old he is, probably like 22 or some awesome age like that, but y'all should toast his amazingness now that you know it's his birthday (editor's note: it's already Sunday in many spots around the world...hey Hawaiians hold it down!!).  Here's some classics from the new lord of bass music...happy birthday fool.

Happy Birthday IKKI!

When I saw Justice in NYC in the fall of 2007 I wasn't really into dance music....when I saw their stage setup and heard their set I started to realize that there is a heavy side of things.  Of all the remixers/producers out there, I don't think there is one with a more similar musical taste to me than this Spaniard IKKI.  Today is the dudes birthday so I wanted to shout him out!!!  His "Cowboys From Hell" remix sorta changed my outlook on things...never thought other people wanted to do heavy metal remixes till I heard that song...FUCKING ILL.  Anyways here are some dope ass tracks from the man.






Follow this dude...he's crazy awesome:

Stop, Drop, and Troll

This new EP from Aylen is getting tons of blog love so I thought I'd throw my hat in the ring since it features some pretty awesome dudes and is definitely a release to grab...best of all, it's FREE!!  The titular track is a slice of delicious moombah pie served up by the Jersey kid himself and he did well on the remix front with flips from MTH homie Cy Kosis, Xristo, and Elonious.  My hands down favorite of the bunch has to be from fellow Garden State producer: Xristo; the heavy electro beat has got my head nodding fervently.  Grab them all y'all!!!

It's the Weekennnnnnnnd BAY-BAY!

And it couldn't get here any sooner...although I have to admit this week seems to have just cruised by for me (moving will do that though I guess).  Either way, it's about time to crack a tall can and unwind on the train like an OG.  Or if you're a tad bit classier than me, you might pop a bottle of champagne with some friends to pre-game for a night out.  In that case, allow me to suggest some tunes to get your night popping off right!!  This week I've got some wild and crazy mixtapes from Tittsworth, Feadz, Smutlee, and more so let's get into it right now shall we??










Well that's it everyone!!  Download these and swag the FUCK out this weekend whether you be poolside with a strong drink or driving cross country or perhaps just moving into a new apartment and in desperate need of some tunes to keep you company.  In any case, jam out.  Make sure to like us on facebook and follow us on twitter and soundcloud to get all things MTH into your life!!

Hump Day Ritual

That's right you bastards, the Midweek Pull is here again!  I've been looking high and low (but mostly just my soundcloud dashboard) for some totally amazing and awesomely radical tunes to throw your way and this is the best I could come up with.  New tracks today from Photo Romance, David Heartbreak, Chrome Wolves, and more...let's hop in and see what we come out with shall we?!

Super derpy track right here as French duo Aglory trap-down King Kong's original in an eerily beautiful way. I'm especially excited about the use of the nylon acoustic guitar for the super sexy breakdown about 50 seconds in...yeahhhh smooth as hell.

Fools be using some crazy letters lately. I'm pretty sure it says Soniye is the artist who has unleashed the hell hounds on WARP. Seriously, this thing is nutty.

More dark tracks from the great PNW, Portland's Chrome Wolves channels his inner man in black for this excellent track. It's a FREE DOWNLOAD so get on it right now!

You want some free moombahton?? Sheeeeeeeeet, you like Ludacris?? How about a FREE Ludacris moombahton remix??? Oh man, I just made your day didn't I? Don't thank me, thank these dudes Agro Swag by following them on TWITTER so you can know about future releases as they drop.

It was sorta hard to escape JWLS' "Bashin'" yesterday if you're any kind of moombahton fan and I was most excited to see that Nadastrom were giving away this bouncy remix. Get on it!! Also, do yourself a favor and buy the full EP RIGHT HERE.

Speaking of creepy tracks, Photo Romance shared this 'core leaning remix of fellow countryman Gesaffelstein's "Belgium" the other day so I wanted to pass it along. It's a FREE DOWNLOAD so get on it while you can y'all cause sometimes tracks get picked up and then you have to pay for them :(

The homie Pickster One also giving away a free moombahton track. He flipped Cassidy's "Hotel" for "all my working club DJ's that grind it out each and every week" so grab this free track and put your mother fucking hands up!!

My main man Nightmare coming through with some Freddy Krueger type scary stuff. FREE DOWNLOAD of his remix of Bingo Players...get it while it's hot!

I gots free tracks coming out of my ears in here!! :DFace promised to drop all sorts of free stuff for us this summer and so far he's following through with that!! Another huge track that will certainly make it into moombahton sets for DJs around the country if not the world...FREE DOWNLOAD!!

As mentioned earlier in the week, this Birdy Nam Nam remix from Skrill-dogg is probably one of the most hyped tracks of the month so I was stoked to see that dude Heartbreak made sure to drop one of his signature Loc'd out remixes for us to enjoy. Not up for download yet but knowing this dude it'll wind up on a free comp soon y'all...be patient.

That's it for this week's MWP. Some tracks are great, some you'll love, some I'm sure you'll hate but hey that's what music is all about!! Grab the free downloads where applicable and make sure to support the artists by purchasing the full EPs that they release. Also be a good lad/lass and follow us on twitter, like us on facebook, and follow us on soundcloud. Cool, good work.

Tuesday Night: Preview Night

In the past I have expressed a disliking of "previews" being blogged BUT in an attempt to create more weekly features, I've come up with a "once a week" long form blog dedicated to tracks that either aren't finished or aren't released or whatever reason an artist/label may give for not putting out the full song.  This way I can shed light on forthcoming releases without having to wait on the complete songs to hit soundcloud.  So for our first week of Preview Night I've got some awesome stuff from Nadastrom, Munchi, ETC!ETC!, and more!!!  Here we go!

Here's a new track from ETC!ETC! and his homie Must Die. No release details yet but the description promises some are on their way!! Apparently this unreleased dubby track has early support from "Dillon Francis / AC Slater and More."

Here's a housey preview of something called "Chicken And Waffles" from the Mad Villains. It's unsigned and so unreleased as of yet but here we're getting over 4 minutes of funky niceness so maybe it'll end up being like a 6:30 epic!

This track is actually out...here's an example of a preview I don't really get (but hey the artists can do what they want I suppose). Anyways you can buy this Codes remix RIGHT HERE and the whole release from Kill The Noise HERE...enjoy!

Unreleased Nadastrom is my favorite kind. Here's another one that some label fools seem to be hoarding along with probably my favorite moombahton track of ALL TIME, their remix of "Too Close". Anyhoo, this Zeds Dead remix is pretty alright I guess too.

Awwwwww yiss...DEATH TRAP. The vortex is apparently rising and LeDoom will be riding on the wave. Not sure of any release details yet but be on the look out or the Masters of Hardcore will get you!

New Boys Noize...and I do mean new. Won't hit 'shelves' till October of this year. That's right folks!! For the next 3 months you'll just have to settle for this 1:43 of glory!!

Finally the king of not only the preview but the never released track, it's that Rotterdam dude with big hair, MUNCHI! He's calling this "Skull Trap" so take away from that what you will folks, apparently it's the sort of stuff he's been wanting to do for a "long fucking time" and says we all need to be on the look out for his new EP entitled PRSPCT "soon". We'll be looking!

Well that's it for this week's previews, we hope you liked them!  I feel like the full blog is about to start so I probably don't have time to go grab a soda/popcorn refill.  Just be glad we don't make you sit through commercials like they do at Regal/AMC/etc before you even get to watch the previews--seriously right?!  I mean why did I pay $12 for my ticket, $6 for a hot dog, and $5 for sour patch kids if you still have to support yourself with commercials?!?  Till next Tuesday!!  In the meantime feel free to enjoy the full length tracks we're also featuring on the site.

Back at it again!!

I know y'all love em...I know y'all need em!  That's why every Monday, unless otherwise occupied, I'm doing my darndess to bring you the root'en-toot'enest new chunes that soundcloud has to offer.  Why might you ask??  You could say I just aim to please my loyal readers, others may call me mad, say I'm wasting my time because in reality I don't have any loyal readers.  Mostly I'm doing it to keep a record, so that later down the line when everyone else comes to terms with their piss poor taste in new music, they'll point to the long forgotten pages of the Metal Top Hat blog and say, "this guy knew something...he had a thought and didn't give a damn what others said about it".  So there you have it!  Maybe I am a little lost in the head but to tell you the truth, I just don't give a fuck.  Today we've got new music from Secret Sauce, Surkin, Croydon, and more!!  So let's jump in and see if history proves me right shall we?

First up we have a nostalgic flip from Buzz A Buzz. This tune perked my interest not only because I am a fan of the 1999 classic, The Wood, but also because it's kick drum will punch a hole in your speaker.

Huge freebie from turntablist and ATL OG Klever...it's a bonkers bass jaunt with plenty of stabs to scare the hell outta the standard, everyday listener.

For the 149 folks lucky enough to grab this track before the free download was pulled...I envy you.  Here's Surkin doin' a little work on MIA's "Bad Girls"...this remix will NOT be featured on her USB Necklace release of other remixes so I'm not sure if it'll ever see the light of day outside of your standard piracy locations.

New reggae shit from Snoop...being that I'm a resident of the LBC I feel obligated to at least let you know about this if you haven't heard it yet. Produced by none other than Major Lazer and apparently will be released as a "Snoop Lion" track...yeahhhhhh I'm not really feeling it.

Here's a cool track from LA producer Chris Vazquez...love the sound design in this one as the ape calls are perfect for getting fools to go bananas on the dance floor.

Now the first of two from KC. Here we have the talented trio of Secret Sauce (Brent Tactic, DJ Archi, DJ B-Stee) linking up to bring the pain on this free moombahton track. The name says it all, so play it loud and shake that ass y'all!!

And here we have yet another freebie, this time from DJ Archi who says of this track, "Call it Trap, call it R&B, whatever. Just some smooth grooves that I hope you like" well played sir. I do like it!

How about some pop catchiness getting stomped on by a wobbly bass track? That's a good recipe if you ask me...not my favorite rework of this track but Alvin Risk still proving he's a force to be reckoned with.

The homie Leisure reached the daunting plateau of 10k downloads last week and in celebration he dropped yet another free track on us all!! Enjoy!

This dude Croydon is consistently dropping heaters on us...this track came out last week on his El Hefe EP so GO BUY IT and support his efforts!

As far as I know there aren't many Portuguese moombahtonistas out there who can hold a candle to this dude King Kong...especially not when he's got his soul cap on. Another stellar track and of course it's FREEEEEEE so grab it while you still can and rinse it out in the clubs y'all.

This Skrillex remix has been getting tons of attention lately and it didn't take long for Phoenix' own Mendez to do his traditional moombahton flip of it. It's available for free if you like his Facebook Page so do yourself a favor and grab it ASAP!!

Last but certainly not least a new track from the homie D-V3KZ. Heavy ass moombahton right here...which is EXACTLY what this site is all about. My man has been putting in massive amounts of work and it's really showing as he seems to be honing his production skills every week. Big ups!

Well that's gonna do it for today's new tunes y'all.  Hot damn this was a long post!!  Hope you enjoy these tracks, make sure to download the ones that are free.  If you're excited about this blog you should follow us on twitter, then go like us on facebook, then follow us on soundcloud.  See you soon!



Grab Your Hats and let's RAGE

Huge release right here from Voodoo Rebel...Frank Lucano's Mi Sombrero EP dropped over the weekend and I wanted to take a moment and share it's glory with all my loyal readers.  With remixers like these, it should be obvious that this sucker tickles my fancy but just to appease you, I will detail a few things I enjoy about it.  First off, I fucking love sombreros so a song that basically commands you to hand me my sombrero is top notch in my book.  Secondly, it's well known in my little world that latin rhythms are my current obsession--as my friends on the blue line will tell you--so again, this set is right up my alley.  Third thing I love about this release: Milangeles' moombahton remix...HOT DAMN, the kick drum is so massive it's seriously rattling the windows in my studio.  The whole thing is for sale from Juno RIGHT HERE so might I suggest shelling out the $1.75/track??  Gotta support at least the tracks you personally like; for whatever reason there isn't a set for these tracks so I just grabbed them each from the individual soundcloud pages.

Introducing, a new Caped Crusader

The streets of Gotham may be a little bit safer now that Baan has arrived on scene.  [On a personal note it's a little difficult to write this thing up given what happened last Friday in Colorado...I'll try and keep the Batman references to a minimum]  Hailing from the most sucker free of all cities, the head of Bad Shoes Records delivers right from the jump with his "Baan Sucks" intro and the power continues throughout.  My personal favorite of the remixes comes from Phoenix's own Riot Earp who's maddening drums and eerie vocal edit are exactly the sounds I'm most looking for in dance music.  Grab the whole EP for free from the Bad Shoes Records FB page RIGHT HERE and blast this at your next house party to keep the villains at bay.

Happy 25th to Appetite!

Pretty tough to believe I'm sure but tomorrow will mark the 25th anniversary of the quintesential Guns N' Roses album, Appetite For Destruction.  While the band continues to travel the world playing to sold out venues globally, Appetite (which ranks as one of the greatest debut albums of all time) will join the quarter-century club.  GN'R made headlines earlier this year when front man Axl Rose refused to be involved in the bands induction to the rock and roll hall of fame; as a long time fan of the band I can say that Axl never fails to amuse me.  I wonder if there will be any special release to commemorate the anniversary...knowing this band though, trying to get anything out will be a hassle.  Us die hards can only hold out hope that something awesome will happen or just wait around for the 50th anniversary when hopefully all the squabbles will finally be at peace.





Get with GN'R on their Facebook and twitter pages!  And happy birthday to Appetite for Destruction...go drink a bottle of Nightrain on Sunset and pass out in an alley.


OO DA CHEE Remixed for Party Like Us

Udachi's debut EP with Party Like Us dropped back in February and now the OO DA CHEE EP has been reworked by some top notch nu-bass producers.  I'd heard rumblings of this release for the last month or so and have been eagerly awaiting the full previews so I could share it with y'all.  With remixes from some of our favs including Curl Up, Astronomar, and ETC!ETC! I was sure everyone who is down with this site would want to check it out.  I'm especially stoked for the Whole Sick & Tomb Crew remix of "To The Death", it's super funky with this dirty hip-hop drum beat; love the HUGE claps in there.  All these tracks are worth at least a spin but you should support these cats buy purchasing the whole EP when it drops next week.

Get with these dudes in your favorite social media spots:

Welcome to Your Weekend!

It's Friday...I know some of y'all still have to head into work like me but that doesn't mean we can't start visualizing our weekend already.  I'm picturing sunny skies, warm beaches, tan bods, cool drinks, and stuff I can't write here.  So, to get us all ready, I've scoured the depths of my soundcloud dashboard and now bring forth a collection of some totally radical mixtapes for you to rock out with starting RIGHT NOW!!!  Tapes from AC Slater, Nadastrom, and DJ AM (RIP) among others.





HARD Summer is two weeks away!!  Get tix RIGHT HERE!!!!!





Well that's it y'all...download where applicable and remember the most important thing about the weekend, is to be safe.  Only 7 left till the summers done so if you're near it may I suggest hitting the beach or possibly a lake??  Do yourself a favor and at least go to the pool ok?  Hope you have a great one, make sure you stay in touch with us on facebook, twitter, and soundcloud for more info about your favorite heavy music blog: MTH.

HASHTAG DOPE

A few weeks ago I asked MTH buddy Brent Tactic if he had any exclusive shit he could throw my way for our July takeover of KBOO.  The result was the track "Whoop" off Think 2wice Records next release, #DOPE from LA moombahton producer Cy Kosis.  Needless to say, I was stoked on the track so now that we're finally getting a look at the full EP I feel like it's a MUST to share it with y'all.  The four original tracks are pure moombahton and seriously some of the best stuff I've heard lately, Jamaal has seriously stepped his game up!!  In contrast to his likewise amazing Zambo EP, these four tracks are more groovy and seem to draw the listener into a futuristic (as the cover may suggest) underground night club somewhere in downtown Los Angeles; I can't help nodding my head to the beat and can imagine getting down on the dance floor with some sweaty off-world visitors in this dusty hot spot.  With remixes from Paul David, Aylen, and J-Trick this sucker is a well rounded release--to be expected from the Think 2wice fam--with uptempo as well as chilled out vibes streaming throughout.  It drops on July 31st but you can preview the tracks below!!

There's Always More Remixes in the Sea

DC trio Misun dropped their 6 track debut EP The Sea on Tuesday via T&A Records...grab it RIGHT HERE.  Today we have some excellent flips from the likes of Steve Starks, Billy The Gent, Cousin Cole, and more.  The gentle and steady rhythms of these tracks make it a classically styled summer release perfect for long drives in a convertible to whichever warm weather destination you desire...and if you so desire an aquatic destination it's all the better.  I'm particularly fond of DJ/Guitarist William DeVon's take, it's got a dirty vibe to it but also sounds a tad bit mid-80's funky, DIG IT!  Make sure to check out the remixes below and buy the whole set RIGHT HERE.

Misun is: Nacey (Facebook/twitter/soundcloud) on keys, William DeVon (Facebook/twitter/soundcloud) on guitar, and Misun Wojcik (soundcloud/Facebook) on vocals of course.


400 DEEP

People probably don't realize what it really takes to run a dope music blog like this one...I certainly didn't for the longest time.  For like 2 years I just sorta had the blog and would throw stuff up here and there, sometimes months between each post.  So it's exciting for me to see that we've now come to post #400.  For the last 8 months or so I've been living this site, going to bed each night trying to dream up awesome ways to make it more appealing to you the reader.  We've launched the Midweek Pull, "Don't Be Shy", the KBOO #Moombahton Takeover, and more shit to do just that.  I hope over the next 400 posts (and beyond) we will continue to bring you dope tunes, original stuff, exclusives, and more!  To celebrate this milestone I'm ROCKING MY ASS OFF in the studio.




Be sure to like us on FACEBOOK, follow us on TWITTER and SOUNDCLOUD and keep coming back for more tunes everyday!!

Pullin' It!

Sitting down to write this week's MWP and I realize that I haven't been to the comic shop in like 5 weeks...there's probably like $75 worth of new issues sitting in a box with my name on it.  Don't know if I should be happy (mad stuff to read) or sad (mad money outta my wallet that could be spent on drinks and/or new tunes).  Either way, that won't deter me from getting this blog done!!!  As you know, tons of new music dropping daily on the world wide web and we here at MTH take it as a personal responsibility to at least share a smidgen of it with y'all.  This week we've got new tracks from Major Lazer, Photo Romance, 2 Edit, and Dirty Audio among many.  I'm a little behind at work today so I'm doing this as a quickie post so make sure and listen to ALL these tunes; trust me they are wonderful.

Screech Would Be Stoked

Team Bayside High dropped their debut EP Loudpack on Teenage Riot Records today.  The two track release is bull of heavy bass and hard hitting kick drums.  While we've been up on these dudes primarily for their moombah work, this sucker shatters any sort of barriers that a genre would normally produce.  Label head Jesse Keeler (JFK of MSTRKRFT) calls it, "Huge, genre-less bass monsters" and the man is not lying.  The tracks are free, just click download on the soundcloud previews below!

Screaming For 30 Years of Vengeance!

All hail!  Today marks the 30th anniversary of Screaming For Vengeance, the landmark album from metal gods Judas Priest.  It's the biggest selling album of all time from the British rockers and features the unreal hit "You've Got Another Thing Coming"--which they apparently wrote and recorded as a semi-afterthought--as well as "Electric Eye", "Bloodstone", "Devil's Child", and others.  This was the first Priest album I ever owned and it hooked me straight off.  In celebration of this day I'm sharing a few awesome live performances of tracks off Screaming.  Enjoy!!

New Week...New Chunes

I took in 4 days of nerd-dom at the mecca of all things geeky: Comic-Con and am finally getting back on the horse here at MTH to bring you some new music for your little ears.  Best moment of the con you ask?  As always, the Masquerade Ball...it's basically a middle school dance blended with a Star Wars theme wedding.  All the best things of each including plenty of cosplayers mixing things up on the floor--greatest of which has to go to Earthworm Jim who actually came up to me and said, "WHO WANTS TO SEE JIM DO THE WORM??".  For more of my madness from all four days check my recaps over at META.  Now to the new tunes, not really up for much today so you'll have to take them all in and pass judgement for yourself!!!  New shit from ETC!ETC!, Mendez, Drop The Lime and more.
