TRIGGER WARNING: This review will be talking about dark topics such as Misogyny and violence against women. If that sounds triggering I advise you avoid this article. I'm sure just about everyone right now knows about the massive game censorship regime being pushed by Visa and Mastercard due to the words of a certain feminist group, so I'll spare you the backstory.   In the massive ban wave, a promising indie horror game called Vile Exhumed was caught in the crossfire. The game's synopsis is that you investigate an old computer and piece together a dark story about a parasocial relationship, Misogyny, and violence against women.  But Collective shout/mastercard whatever name 'big brother' is using for himself nowadays didn't see that, all they saw is that this game had adult themes and partial nudity and shot it on sight. The game was banned from steam and forbidden from sale, but it's now freely available as shareware  Here Now I find the idea of playing a ...

  As a frequent shopper at rainy day records prior to moving house, I always went down there to look for new cassettes for my collection, as I was looking through the metal cassettes I came across this band: (The exact one I own) The death of hubris struck me hard, As an anarchist hardcore kid myself seeing this album cover, the ruined city being overlooked by punks, with the battlevests including the Peace anarchy sign, Crass logo, BLM fist, and the gender anarchist symbol.  Naturally it was no contest, it's rare for me to see an album that's a reflection of my own values front and center. so I bought the tape and hightailed it home to listen to it, and this ladies and gents marks one of my best experiences with hardcore punk. the death of hubris wears its anti establishmentism on it's studded sleeve, coming out in 2020, the year of the pandemic, the death of george floyd, and when the world as a whole took a hard turn down the shitter. It's a time capsule of the worst...

  DISCLAIMER: This review will be very in depth and spoil fuckin everything so if you want to play the game do NOT read this post. you've been warned. I recall back in 2021, A game made the rounds on a few meme pages called "Snoot game" It just looked like a visual novel about dinosaurs to my eye so I never gave it much attention, only for me to discover that the games characters were directly stolen from a DIFFERENT game, made as a parody and a middle finger to "Woke" culture. That game is KO_OP's Goodbye Volcano high. When I first saw the game itself my first response was "Why all the hate?" Seriously there was more vitriol thrown at this game than I've seen in a LONG time and why? From what I saw it was mostly about it being "Preachy" and having a queer message and a They/Them protag. Now, I never got embroiled in the games drama, I never played snoot game and didn't pay much attention to GVH either until I decided to give it a...

  (Final review at the bottom) For the longest Time I had a great name for a horror punk band, that name being Psychopomp, named after the ancient Greek guides to the underworld, The best known being Charon the ferryman who carries souls across the river Styx. But I discovered last night whilst roaming around the horror section on steam that the name was already being used for a videogame. a horror title by fading club. Psychopomp intrigued me when I first saw it, the title and the sleeping character evokes a feeling of ominousness for lack of a better word, and it hooked me in and got me to check it out. I did a bit of digging and found that the game had a new version released called Psychopomp Gold which is packed with more content, and seeing as how it's less than ten dollars I decided to give it a whirl and what I got? was one of the most fascinating horror games I've played in recent memory. The game revolves around this girl who is named by the community as "Pompi...

Ah the skull, the human cranium, the headbone. there are few things as near and dear to us edgelords than the most vital bone in the human body. Skulls have always had a sort of mystique to them, the Mayans were famously fond of them, the mexican Dia De Los Muertos feature skulls as a key motif, Pirates flew the jolly roger, Hamlet Iconically held the skull of "Ol Yorick" and to this day just about every edgy band on earth used a skull in some form and every emo kid had one on their notebook. Yeah this whole post is just gonna be my late night death(Haha pun) spiral into skulls so, prep yourself. I was pondering on human skulls, specifically pondering using one as a candy dish at my desk. and as I was scrolling through my social media brainrot apps and I came across THIS: A crystal skull, Everyone knows the CONCEPT of crystal skulls, probably from that one Indiana jones movie we don't talk about. but to see an actual one was really striking to me. and when I saw that link...

So today I was strolling on Bandcamp, searching for some new punk music to titillate my understimulated ear regions. After all I had heard everything that Lower class brats, Descendants, black flag and Propaghandi had to offer. It was time for something new. I scrolled for a bit, looking for some acts from right here in my home state of new jersey, when I was greeted by a certain pink logo that drew my eye Wall Breaker here is a NJ based straightedge hardcore punk band who try to replicate the early 80s sound of bands like SSD, and slapshot.  the band consists of members of other hardcore acts such as Jeremy Evans of Cokebust , Jeff Desantis of bloodtype, Ken Ramsay of glory fades and Ben Wood of chainsaw to the face and they all come together in a blistering act of trump presidency anger. (Photo courtesy of their bandcamp) Their latest EP, "Choice now!" is short, only three songs long and all of five minutes but the songs were a blast to listen to, and something awesome i...

  Twas a dark and stormy night, I was in the living room doomscrolling on youtube pining for something dark, disturbing and/or bizarre when I stumbled upon a video on internet rabbit holes. The title of this video has since eluded me, but what I do remember are three numbers and a two words. 973 Eht Namuh. The site opens up with this, This being an old charm used by the ancient greeks as a way to dispel sickness the same way the word is being "dispelled"  But this is only the time of the iceberg. Eht namuh is a labyrinth of occult and religious references, numerology, and letter symbolism. The intention of the site is not agreed upon. Some say it's an art project, others say it's mad ramblings with no real meaning, others say it's a complex puzzle/ARG and some even think it's a means to prove the existence of or commune with god or some type of cult recruitment. No matter what people think of the site, it was something that stuck with me just for how Bizarre i...
