Ultima Victima – La Batalla Sera Enterna — Detonate, 2010


If there's nothing that I hate more is moshcore bands that feel it necessary for their mosh parts to have mosh parts over mosh parts. Ulitma Victima are from Mexico and sing (well bark) in Spanish. The last time I took a Spanish class was in the 10th grade so I have no clue what's going on here. I can tell you that Ultima Victima really love their mosh parts and musically they probably really love Terror and Donnybrook too. La Batalla Sera Enterna wouldn't be half bad of an EP if it weren't for over moshiness of it. Yeah, I'm making up words tonight. This EP is ridiculous with its mosh parts. I almost laughing at it with its earnest tough guy bravado straight down to picture of these gentlemen mean mugging the camera. Then I look at the cover art and completely lose it. This band could probably kick the crap out of me, but at least I would die laughing.

I’d already visited Venas Rotas Discos earlier on the trip and … Read more

Karen Dió

Fugaz
Hopeless (2026)

Six songs. That's all Karen Dió needs on this EP. Considering the title translates roughly to fleeting, brief, or transient in Portuguese, maybe that's exactly the point. Dió's second EP doesn't hang around long enough to overstay its welcome. It arrives, makes a hell of a lot of noise, throws some gigantic hooks at you, and disappears. But there's considerably … Read more

Real Numbers

Was It Always This Way
Slumberland Records (2026)

I feel like this may be the first 12", 10-song release in my collection from Real Numbers, a dreampop meets jangle-indie rock band from Minneapolis. I'm not going to fact check my statement, because I mean it as a metaphor. Real Numbers play exactly what you'd expect based on my short description so far, but there's always something just a … Read more
