The fourth installment of Desert Fest NYC has now come and gone. I want to start by thanking the crew, they ran a three-day fest with everything starting on time and limited technical difficulties throughout the fest, they worked their backsides off and it showed.

ALBUM REVIEW: Racetraitor – Creation and the Timeless Order of Things
In dire times of crisis and injustice caused by oppressive systems, the least we can do is to voice our aspirations through the creative media that we have going – and that’s what the hardcore unit Racetraitor have been doing. Racetraitor has always been a band that’s ahead of their time – voicing opinions on systemic racism and white privilege before they were even often discussed in a large audience.
CONCERT REVIEW: Baroness – Primitive Man – Midwife – Agriculture Live at The UC Theatre
On a beautiful autumn night we headed out to see one of my favorite bands in one of my favorite Bay Area venues. To readers of this website, no one will be shocked that Baroness is one of my all-time top bands and I hold all their albums in high regard. We recently did a deep dive discography over at the Glacially Musical Pouredcast. I even own an exclusive John Dyer Baizley-made print from the Yellow and Green album era (Relapse Records) that holds a special place in my heart. Needless to say, the 2023 release of the album Stone (Abraxan Hymns) has not left my rotation. Not only was I getting to see one of the best bands to ever do it live, three other killer bands were joining them tonight in Primitive Man, Midwife and Agriculture. The approach of the headline band to have different sets of rotating openers should be a more common practice when possible.

INTERVIEW: Angelic Desolation on Their New Album “Orchestrionic Abortion” – Songwriting Tips, and Vegetable Care
Keefy caught up with Jay, Matt, and Leonard from Denver Colorado’s Extreme Metal band Angelic Desolation! Their new album “Orchestrionic Abortion” was released earlier this year. We had an uproarious convo about vegetables, how the band writes, why humor is essential in Death Metal and Grindcore, the depth and history of the Denver scene, local sports teams, and technology hacks for metal bands!
EP REVIEW: Full of Hell and Primitive Man – Suffocating Hallucination
Knowing well who, or what, Full of Hell and Primitive Man are separate, it is no surprise what to expect should these forces ever collide. Suffocating Hallucination (Closed Casket Activities) is just the very chaotic collaboration I expected, but even more sonically harsh and violent than originally thought. Five tracks drag you relentlessly through a half hour of torture and misery. To make this clear, these are all compliments of what is a literal, aural trip through Hell itself.
