Hummingbird Of Death – Goatmeal (2008)

20 songs on a 5″ record? That’s exactly what I’m talking about, ladies and gentlemen! Hummingbird of Death have always been known to bring the high-powered, super-fast grindcore (or powerviolence, if you’re a hardcore kid), but this shy-of-4-minutes monster is just something else. Discounting the last track, which takes up the entirety of side B, each song is a microburst of super-thrashy speedy goodness.

This isn’t as polished as more familiar material (like the classic Show Us The Meaning Of Haste) but the production isn’t necessarily bad or so muddy that it all sounds like a pile of crap – it’s still nice and clear. You can stream the whole thing below on Youtube, but you can also still pick up a physical 5″ copy released by Cowabunga! Records for a decent price, even the red repress limited to 180 copies. Warning – is fast.
