Shame that Dripping Decay split up. Right before that they were going to go on a tour and I think they were going to do a show near me.

You should do another edition of this series

Metal is the ONE genre i have never really fallen into in all these years, but I have ALWAYS really admired the passion and addition to the whole scene.

What band shirt are you wearing?

What are some actually decent Francos? I only saw maybe two or three of his films. I remember Faceless being pretty fun.

Great haul. I just missed out on the sci-fi chillers box on Prime Day. But my wife did just get me the new Umbrella Mario Bros. box for my birthday. That was the first "bad" movie I ever sought out to own like 20 years ago.

Amazing haul. A few I have but so many I want. Always happy to see some Jess Franco appreciation.

Finally back to films

When Evil Lurks is awesome, brutal stuff. It loses a little steam in the second half but still quality horror. High Tension would be much better without that ending imo. Speaking of quality horror, have you seen Speak No Evil (2022 Denmark) and The Coffee Table?

Hi Simon. Epic as usual. Why Oh Why does Severin seem to hate Australia? Even in a sale their shipping is very steep. 🤦‍♂️ VS in my opinion keep it far more reasonable. Us Aussies get it raw sometimes. Prime day had Shinobi 🥷 set for $40.. irresistible Ninja frenzy I was in.

Roger Corman sized Update!!! Great stuff brotha!

Tymvos are fuckin' awesome!! As a Scot I'm proud of these guys!!

When Evil Lurks is a fucking MASTERPIECE

🙏🤘

I can't hear anything. 😂

High Tension's ending is complete horseshit. I saw it 20 years ago and I still can't believe they went with that.

🤘💿🤘

When Evil Lurks was one of the best surprises of last year, had a good time with it. That is one massive and packed update and haul, many good pick ups and interesting movies. Keep on going strong, keep the love and passion alive!

When evil lurk is 🤘

Eyyyy Simon. We have a huge flea market here in my area that's every Sunday year round is massive. You can google it lol, raynham flea market in Massachusetts. Anyway, they have a ton of booths with awesome b grade stuff for super cheap. 🤘🤙🤙

I had to look up the Garfield phone clip

Great update! Some of the prime day sale bargains were fantastic - I also picked up the Shinobi radiance set.

You have impeccable taste, sir!

nice ones

DEAD INFECTION!!!!

You have convinced me to get Hyperdontia on vinyl.

Fantastic haul there mate, Pestilential Shadows and Ulcerate for me on Thursday, a tad keen, I need to sort them White Rune Lps at some point for sure, all the best bruz!! 🍻🍻🍻

This elder man is into my musica extrema 😮✊🏾

Hail the mighty Thy Darkened Shade, local band from my city 🤘one of the very best (and certainly weird) children of the modern hellenic black metal. I recommend Lucifer's Child -if you don't know them already, featuring ex-members of Rotting Christ, its a mix of swedish and greek black metal in a more modern sort of way

Top Norsk language top - play the video for 'Kollektivet: Music Video - ÆØÅ (Size Matters)' for the best introduction to the letters ever.

What a great day

Hey mate what is osmose packaging for vinyl like these days? Only ordered vinyl from them once and it cost about $70 all up with shipping. Vinyl was warped as fuck was only in a single layer of cardboard. Never ordered from him since.

Carcass is the greatest band outside of Whitehouse and Brian Eno if that counts haha

black metal is winter music.have you ever been to Perisher valley or Thredbo for skiing?

Love that Gjendød buffalo. You into that weird Dutch gumph, like Fluisteraars and Solar Temple? And how about Malokarpatan?

So weird how the world works..... July in Sydney Australia....winter 6*C July in Vancouver Canada....summer 28*C Yet only an ocean separates us.

Appreciate the recommendations! You’ve given me a lot to check out. Cheers!

Ahahha. Good attempt pronouncing some of these Finnish names. ‘Sielunvighollinen’ just rolls off the tongue. Probably an abbreviation as well.

That Gjendød band sounds interesting; I’ll have to check them out sometime. I had seen the cover art of the debut album floating around the Internet for about a few years now. It kind of reminded me of a scene from a movie in that found-footage style á la The Blair Witch Project; very creepy! As far as black metal is concerned, the new Dödsrit and Conifère albums have really been doing it for me this year. Both of them are fantastic! Also, the new album by Inconcessus Lux Lucis is really great as well; it reminds me a lot of the underrated US black metal band Negative Plane.

Awesome update! I really like the sound of both Krvna and Gjendød! Thanks for the recommendations!

Great update Simon. Nice to see that Gjendød have made their way to Australia. Not to sure about the new one, but will give it a go. Did see the stream with HM, so Pestilential Shadows is on the list. Cheers. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Thanks for all the heads up! Will give most of this a listen.

😮

Hi Simon!! another very cool black metal vinyl haul and very suitable for the cold weather over there, something you don't see very often in aussieland?? A couple of cool things first another one man project/band that seems to be a very common thing in extreme metal music, don't know why and scandinavian bands singing in their own language, don't know if that's because they don't care singing in english or norwegian/finnish/swedish adds a cool edge to their sound/music.... cheers and be well

What do you think of the band Portal?

I dont think Im going to make it thru this one without reaching for my wallet.
