Doctor, Doctor give me the news….

Some of you might pretend you don’t have a winking brown starfish on the bottom of your nether region but Urgent Care is here to tell you that Colonoscopies can save your life. Get your pack of Pico-Salax and let the chocolate fountain bubble and flow. The colonoscope is a thin catheter with a camera attached to the end of it. Much like the movie The Fantastic Voyage, these explorers will navigate around billowing bulbous hemorrhoids like speed bumps in quiet sleepy fenced middle-class America. Now, if you are lucky, they can also do an endoscopy while you are out cold on the table. Rest assured they will not use the catheter on your gullet that was previously up your Hershey highway…. mind you if they reverse that it might explain why people exclaim... Whoa man, your breath smells like shit!.

So don the vinyl gloves and get ready to explore and leave those latex gloves on the operating floor ( you might not be aware that people with latex allergies might also have allergic reactions to certain foods like Kiwi, Bananas and Avocado this is due to some of the proteins in latex are also present in these fruits).

Urgent Care has emerged from the medical waste disposal site like medical student Toxic Avengers. Aurally (say Ahhhhhh!) resonating like output from the well-loved Rip Off Records. The Mummies emerging from beneath the Pyramids to tag team, poke in the eye cage match with the often feared- The Angry Samoans.Fast blasts of soap sud enemas blasting all over blue medical pads like a brown Tsunami. Believe in Science. Believe in Urgent Care.

Relay For Death

Mutual Consuming
Helen Scarsdale Agency (2025)

At a time when experimental artists are constantly churning out new music, it is curious to find some that take their time. Rachel and Roxann Spikula might not be the most prolific creatives, but when they make an appearance, it is worth paying attention. The twin sisters have performed in Towering Heroic Dudes and Boyzone, but it is their own … Read more

Scorching Tomb

Ossuary
Time To Kill (2025)

Whenever I see the cover art of an album for a metal band and there’s impaled skulls, blood, and a logo I can’t read, I know I’m getting ready to get obliterated. If I’m at the record store, I instantly flip it to the spine of the album to see the band’s name so I can check them out on … Read more
