All the best music is from these genres. Feel free to share your faves



Both sides of this split are really good, but the Dead Radical side (starting around 4:45) is truly something else. Shame they weren't around for very long, they were really on a whole nother level...

I started out listening to punk and metal as a teenager, as you do, then in my early/mid-20s I got into weed and psychedelics and my music tastes got more broad but also a lot more slow/chilled out. Then in the past decade-ish, I've gotten back into the fast/ecstatic stuff in a big way, and Iron Lung was one of the first bands I discovered at that time. They have such a unique sound, in a genre where a lot of stuff sounds the same (power violence) they have really pushed the boundaries in directions that not many other artists have gone before or since. Plus they're a 2-piece and 2-piece bands are just the coolest.

I actually saw this band live back in the day but was too naive to really appreciate it. This EP is just a classic...pure, ecstatic chaos, like what were they even thinking when they wrote these songs?

My musical tastes have changed drastically over the years. I have always been into metal and it is still my favorite type of music but I really have gotten into grindcore over the past 5 years.
