NOW THAT’S WHAT I CALL SLAM!

Here’s the heavy metal blog-crossover project of the season: Invisible Oranges‘ Cosmo Lee has recruited Metal Inquistion‘s Sergeant D (Hey, those names rhyme!) to “compile a mixtape that would be a slam metal primer.” The mix includes fifteen songs from bands such as Devourment, Putrid Pile and “Completely Unreadable Band Logo of the Week” alum Guttural Secrete, and can be downloaded for free here. The Sarge even wrote some “liner notes” about each track to help educate those of us unfamiliar in the ways of slam.

Bonus: Cosmo admits that “After listening to [the mix], I still can’t tell any of this stuff apart.” So at least I’m not the only one.
