Atlas Losing Grip - All in a days work (video)
A new tune from Swedish melodic punk act Atlas Losing Grip off their forthcoming record "State of unrest". Into it. Dig the Freddy Mercury mustache on the singer too.

MP3: Miasmal - Toxic breed
I've heard a bunch of Miasmal stuff over the years and even shelled out for the ultra-limited/sought-after 12" version of the demo on , but I never felt like they lived up to the hype. Solid Swedish death, sure, but we're pretty much drowning in B-grade versions of the stuff right now. This new tune, however, totally changed my mind. If the rest of the album is as good as this, it's gonna be sick. The US tour can't happen soon enough, I just hope the boneheads in Bone Sickness don't screw things up.
