Video Premiere: Scars of the Flesh - "Chant For Ezkaton"
HOUKAGO CUSTOM TIME FULL
Couple that with some enhanced production quality overall, and we should be in for quite the ride when the full album comes together for us. So, with Houkago Grind Time 2: The Second Raid, Lee addresses more serious themes, like the rejection of capitalistic issues in the animation industry. With an original mission to “save the world by overloading it with mincegore” shared through numerous demos, EPs, and splits over those initial three years, the message eventually evolved in conjunction with the world continuing to go to shit… basically. It’s mincecore exactly as it should be… at least that’s what I’m led to believe and assume.įor those looking for a little additional background on Houkago Grind Time (a brief, yet noteworthy journey to be clear) the project came to be through a demo in 2019. A self-proclaimed novice guitarist who has been playing the guitar since the fourth grade and whose parents are working in a jazz band. The surprising clarity of each note from each layer of sound, and the galloping cadence underneath it all, makes this pretty damn easy to ingest. Azusa is a new student who joins the light music club and plays a Fender Mustang electric guitar but she is also in possession of a Gibson Les Paul Custom 50th Anniversary Gold Top (as seen in episode 13). And the wild thing is, within all of that pummeling chaos, it’s packaged in a way that feels completely organized and logical. The screeching leads, the guttural vocals, the unrelenting blasts… it’s absolutely beautiful. I don’t personally listen to a ton of grind, but this rules. I would have to say those sentiments are appropriately conveyed here. “Animation is one of the most grueling industries in Japan, and one of the worst when it comes to exploiting their workers if they aren’t already depressing local labor by outsourcing animation to Korea or the Philippines. Well, before we share a couple thoughts of our own, here’s a quick word from Andrew Lee: And since it’s goregrind, you know I mean that quite literally. Take a minute and give it a listen directly below. In case you needed something vicious to get through the rest of your day, we’re here with the exclusive premiere of the latest from Houkago Grind Time, titled “It’s Time to M-M-M-Mince.” Houkago Grind Time 2: The Second Raid, the new album from the mincecore/goregrind project stemming from the mind of Andrew Lee (Ripped To Shreds, Skullsmasher), drops on November 4th and we’re proud to share the opening track here.
