I was looking for more Wisigoth material in order to compliment this excellent 7" and offer a more extensive post. Unfortunately, this didn't happen before the urge to post it took over. Wisigoth was a Canadian band that sliced and trampled its way into the secret society of bands ruled over by Dystopia-- bands with a definite metal base, but with leanings toward crust, a DIY hardcore ethic, and tempos that earn them sludge honors. If you're into other French-Canadien metal/crust/grind/sludge, you either already dig these guys or will have no problem doing so. Since I'm on this whole kick of doing series, look out for more Canadian stuff this week.Wednesday, June 15, 2011

Killer band! The record doesn't quite hold up to my memory of them live, though. Saw 'em in a tiny barn in Gainesville, FL back in '98 or so. Some gnarly, burly female vocals and destructive tunes. Fun, memorable, wild show.
Yeah, live they must have been incredible!
they also had a full lenght cd...I don't remember the title though...one of my friend had it a good amount of years back. Never saw them live which is a wacked thing since i'm Quebecois....hahahha
stoked on the music. not so stoked on the vocalist who sounds like a stuck pig. thanks for sharing though...
