Hellchild – “Circulating Contradiction”

Posted in Uncategorized by Mogo on May 9, 2008

can you tell I’ve been in a metal mood lately? call me Pat Boone… anyway, this little gem is a blast from my fanzine-making past that doesn’t seem to be in print these days… hell, the copy I have is a cardboard-sleeve promo that I think I got from either Boris or Corrupted when I used to correspond with them in the mid-90s… I remember a lot of friendly cross-promotion going on back then and when you’d get a promo package from one band, half the time they’d include stuff from two or three other bands they were friends with at the same time.

memory-lane strolling aside, it still stands as one hell of a punishing album even by todays standards… a straight up brutal mix of hardcore and death metal with a ferocity matched by few bands in either genre at the time. can’t really find anything indicating whether they’re active now – seems like their last release was in 2001.

this one came out on Howling Bull on 1997. nice discography page here. not much else to say, really…

grab it and get your face punched in

    These guys rule! I useta have a single (R&R Motherfuckers, mebbe?) that had ‘em covering GISM, Motley Crue and a buncha other stuff as a medley. I’ll hafta go look through me stacks o’ crap to see if I by some miracle managed to hang onto it.

    Thanks!

    was that “In Words, For Words” ?? I have that one and it’s one of their originals plus covers of Napalm Death, Attitude Adjustment, Kiss and one other band I forget…

    but yeah, these guys definitely rule. in retrospect I’m actually kinda surprised I didn’t post this sooner. oh well, better late than never I guess…

    Haha– it’s called “Medley.” The track on Side B is called “R&R Motherfuckers.” It’s some Ltd. Ed. thing on Howling Bull Rec’s. There’s a bit o’ info on it here.
