Favourite NON STANDARD FORMAT releases of the year
CAPITAL LETTERS. I mean like tapes or cdrs or 7" records or something. Anything that isn't an mp3/cd/lp album maybe. And say why you like them or provide a link to songs or something!
The 'Proper Execute' 7" by Much Worse is raging hardcore punk! It sounds like Bad Brains put on too fast by accident (not like that album where the Bad Brains were actually at the wrong speed, I mean in a good way). In-tense.
"Proper Execute is 7 tracks of ripping, high energy hardcore punk with Japanese-esque vocal delivery ala Outo. Lots of bright & off the wall riffs similar to Japanese bands: Jellyroll Rockheads & Gauze but with with a solid USHC feel in the vein of Poison Idea and Jerry's Kids. Perfectly executed recordings. Fans of modern bands: Cut The Shit, 9 Shocks Terror & Tear It Up wont be disappointed. No 80s rehash bullshit, only hot midwest hardcore."

Also "house music" by Wounded Knee is a good long tape of a capella looped vocal goodness with some original stuff, old folky things and an ace sort-of-update of 'Nazi Punks Fuck Off' concerning thee BNP. I assume it's called house music cos it's recorded in his house. There is a stream of possibly the best track on it here
