The Wipers Box Set

Wipers - Box Set

This album contains the Wipers' earliest and most revered works which were remastered in their entirety. It also packs 23 bonus tracks of alternate takes and mixes, outtakes, and live tracks.
The bonuses are great for dedicated fans who have owned the original albums Is This Real?, Youth of America, and Over the Edge. Listeners should not feel as if they're paying extra for them.
Thanks to Sage's lack of greed. You will be spending more money by picking up used copies of the three releases. The bonus tracks are actually worth the price alone.
You should have enough space in your collection for this band as it does for anything else. These three discs contain some of the most amazing, urgent, intense, and proficient music ever made.

This is with out a doubt one of the best buys I have ever had.
A great album. You must get this if you are a punk fan, Nirvana fan, or a rock fan in general.

The best box set I have.


Here is the link to Zeno records where you can buy it IF you want to (I suggest buying it. Does not cost that much. Only $17.00)

Buzzov*en - Sore

Buzzov*en - Sore (1994)

WARNING : The lyrics and music were done under the influence of drugs like crack and heroin and periods of homelessness and depression.

Alright here is the first album I am going to review. It is Sore from the sludge metal band Buzzov*en.
Track after track contains sampled intros which sets you up for  perhaps one of the most vicious, violent albums ever created, and certainly not in a posturing sense, but in the purest, most undiluted manner. You name it - careless abandon, violence, hardcore heroin use, and theft. This band lived it like they played it. They, particularly founder Kirk, were able to harness this negativity into one of the most potent vessels of hatred and rage since early hardcore punk.
The album captures the punishing, hardcore brutality of this trio at their peak by capturing  the mammoth drumming abilities of Ash Lee, the mean / nasty guitar tone of Kirk Fisher as well as his rage filled vocals that honestly are second to none.
 I suggest picking this monster album up.
