Episode 63

Greetings! Fall has returned and with it my mood has been buoyed. This month’s installment was nearly tardy as we’ve been experiencing ailments in the AE HQ so my attention had been directed there. However, all is well in the household so I have been able to provide you with another ~hour’s-worth of musical filth.

Front half is pretty heavy on the metal tentpoles of this project and the second half is steeped in punk and its numerous offshoots. Revolutionary stuff, I tell ya. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Not much else to say but thanks as always for any and all support. I will return sooner than usual as October also features my annual dark ambient/dungeon synth/whatever episode. See you then.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

01) Ulver – “Hymne VIII”
02) Dusk Shrine – “Atavism” (04:35)
03) Death Vanish – “From Down There” (10:10)
04) Order of Decay – “Vows of Death” (17:05)
05) Crypt of Kerberos – “The End of Time” (22:35)
06) Somnol – “Necrosis Call” (26:00)

Side Two:

07) Hellbastard – “The Pylons” (29:00)
08) Lasso – “Rombo” (34:20)
09) The Dark – “Face in the Mirror” (35:35)
10) Crime of Passing – “Damrak” (38:20)
11) Ganzheit – “Traitor!” (42:05)
12) Das Kinn – “Sichtbeton” (48:30)
13) Twilight Ritual – “Fading Me” (52:10)

Episode 62

Welcome back. I’ve got a bit of an “in like a lion, out like a lamb” situation for you all this month. Hopefully the noise and power electronics that kick off this episode doesn’t deter the fainter of heart. New things are good for you. Still lots of guitar-based music if that’s your thing, worry not.

Not much more to add, thanks as always for any and all support. Next month will feature two episodes as you’ll also be “treated” to the annual Samhain special. Before that I will return as usual the first Wednesday of October.

Episode 61

Greetings, with this episode Anxiety Eternal has been a festering sore on the face of society for five years. Much has changed in the world-at-large (and in your selector’s corner) in the past half decade and I appreciate all who have taken the ride. That being said, the music is the focus here, not reflection.

With Summer in full swing I felt the need to inject some speed into the mix which I feel has been lacking of late. Worry not, as the dirges and the misery also show themselves so as not to overwhelm the senses with pace for pace’s sake. There’s not much more to add other than thanks as always for any and all support. I will return the first Wednesday of September with the next installment. Anxiety Eternal is Eternal.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

01) In Disgust – “Vas a Ver”
02) Kill The Client – “A Mockery of Guidance” (01:05)
03) Kinetic Orbital Strike – “Evil Action” (02:10)
04) Sexpill – “South East Santa” (03:20)
05) Wad – “No Provisions” (06:35)
06) Kilslug – “A Curse Will Fall” (11:40)
07) Ausgang A-Go-Go – “Turn on Tonic” (16:30)
08) Stein Im Brett – “Skalpell” (23:20)

Side Two:

09) Maria Violenza – “Sicilian Ghost” (28:00)
10) Fire Messiah – “Children of Light” (34:50)

12) Febris Manea – “Vanity & Vexation of Spirit” (43:00)
13) Southern Spruce – “Summer Morning Exhibition” (45:55)
14) Hardy Kukuk – “.. …. So” (49:00)
15) Matt Howden – “Shu – Lord of Light” (52:15)

Episode 59

Greetings, thank you for returning with me this month. I’ve been feeling a bit sped up lately so you’re likely to notice that a number of the songs in this month’s iteration take their time to unfurl. That isn’t to say that there isn’t much pep, either. One pace is no pace to aspire to.

With that I’ll express my gratitude to any and all support this project has received as it nears the five-year mark. No plans to stop or slow down, either. Forever in/of/for the underground; or some other platitude. See you the first Wednesday of July.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

07) Occult Blood – “Hexing in the Sepulchre” (24:40)

Side Two:

08) Nekus – “Stygian” (28:30)
09) Gath Šmānê – “Genocidal Alchemy” (34:15)

Episode 57

Hello once again. Hopefully the all-covers episode treated you well and you were left filled with mirth and nostalgia. But it is time to return to form.

April’s episode is filled to the brim with blackened noise and…regular noise, I guess. It also starts with a great deal of punk nastiness. Perhaps I’m raging against the dying darkness as the temperature soars and my mood sours. There’s no way anyone could know. BUT, you have nearly 60 minutes of sonic mayhem to use at your discretion. Please do so.

Thanks as always for any and all support. It is much appreciated. I will return the first Wednesday of May with more musical bullshit to tide you over until the next time.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time  noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

02) Fairytale – “Fairytale” (01:15)
03) Enewetak – “Hands Are Tied” (05:05)
04) Virgin Witch – “Nail of Dicara” (09:40)
05) Final Dose – “Like Rats” (12:50)

Episode 56

Welcome back. This month’s installment is heavy on guitars and snarls. I’m starting to think that I need to bring out the magnifying glass for more electronically-inclined sounds as they’ve been sorely lacking the last few months. This shouldn’t be misconstrued as an indictment of March’s contribution to the AE oeuvre; crunch and gristle are welcomed in these parts and hopefully you feel the same.

Do the colder months (this query only applies to us in the Northern Hemisphere, I guess) make you covet certain sounds? I find my listening trends follow the climate to a certain extent. But, contrarianism abounds.

Now that I’ve potentially dissuaded you from clicking play (truly, please listen) I’d like to remind you that only underground music is real. And that being said, thank you for your continued support. See you sooner than you think for the Anxious Karaoke SPECIAL EDITION episode in a matter of time.

The artists and their respective tracks are as follows with each track time noted in the parentheses after each track:

Side One:

01) Skulking – “Fixation of the Assemblage Point to Tartarus”
02) Cyclic Amp – “Caress” (04:45)
03) Murmuüre – “Amethyst” (09:00)
04) Sandworm – “Cil Roth” (13:50)
05) Gelkhammar – “Sibà” (17:55)
06) Distant Fear – “Crude Sanctum” (22:55)

Side Two:

07) Gath Šmânê – “Genocidal Alchemy” (28:30)
08) Cruciamentum – “Rites to the Abduction of Essence” (35:30)
09) Total Ruin – “The Solid Unmoving” (41:15)
10) Gaping Maw – “Preparation of Glue From Bones” (46:35)
11) War Drum – “Ryde or Die” (49:30)
12) Glaxo Babies – “Stay Awake” (52:30)

Episode 55

Greetings! I’ve returned with more filth for the lot of you’s. This month is pretty orthodox in its “darkness” on side one with primarily black and death metal tracks. Side two is when things go a bit off the rails (hopefully in a good way). But that tends to be my “process” for better or worse.

As for my monthly weather report–we got snow and it’s been cold. I am in my element so maybe that means this episode also sounds more jubilant somehow (?).

Anyway, that’s all for now. See you the first Wednesday of March for the next installment. Thank you for any and all support.

Episode 53

Greetings. Welcome to the final episode of 2023. Hopefully this year has found you (who?) in good shape and good spirits. This month is heavy on guitars and light on electronics. I’ve found myself in a bit of a drought when it comes to new (or merely new-to-me) EBM, dark wave, synth, etc. acts so please feel free to shoot me suggestions.

But who says the “ole same ole” is inherently a bad thing. Lots of nasty death metal, driving post-punk, jolting punk, and immiserating black metal for your hungry ears.

Thank you for your continued support and I’ll return next month/year on the first Wednesday with more hits from hell.

Side One:

Side Two:

08) Barren Altar – “Delirium Vivens” (28:00)
09) Gosudar – “King of Pain” (35:50)
10) Kriegszittern – “Surrender” (40:25)

12) Pure Terror – “Fuck the Occupation” (48:40)

14) Can – “Thief” (51:45)

Episode 49

I’ve returned with a new collection of depraved songs to dazzle and disappoint. This month’s episode is pretty heavy on black metal and its offshoots. At least relative to my recent output. Perhaps it’s my subconscious straining and bucking from the heat.
