GET BEHIND MAGRUDERGRIND

Holy frozen poop stick, I feel like we’ve been waiting for Magrudergrind’s Willowtip debut, like, for-ever. It’s been two years since the D.C. outfit’s last full-length, and the tracks they contributed to Scott Hull’s grind/powerviolence collection, 2008’s This Comp Kills Fascists, were fuckin’ face-melters.
Well, the wait is almost over: the band’s self-titled album will be out June 30. And if you can’t wait another two weeks – and really, who could blame you? – there’s now an e-card with samples of a few songs.
Now, there’s something kinda funny about having samples of songs that, in all likelihood, are only one to two minutes long to begin with, but, hey, I dig this band too much to poke fun.
Check out the e-card here.

P.S. All this year’s best album covers belong to grind releases. Shame on you, death metal.
the unlistenable ‘heaven and hell’ album had a pretty sweet cover judging by the pics you guys posted. but yeah, agoraphobic nB definitely takes the top spot.
I came here to mention the H&H album cover, and you beat me to it. However, I still think it’s the best album cover of the year thus far.
nice, i have been waiting on this for ages, Im gonna have to agree that agoraphobic nosebleed takes my vote, its only a matter of time before photomontage becomes a grind cliche.
