Episode 64

Greetings. I love doing this thing on the first Wednesday of every month. Anyway, I won’t wade into the failings of US electoral politics, there’s enough gloom in these songs. The short of it would be the first half is heavy on post-punk and its off-shoots; the second half is heavy on metal and punk off-shoots. It was a late night in the AE dungeon so I’ll leave you at this point. Thank you to all for your continued support.

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”

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)
11) Dune Mear – “Withered Masque” (39:55)
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.

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.

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 54

A new year and another chapter in the book of Anxiety Eternal. If you’re interested in my opinions on the releases that were released (and actually heard by your selector) in 2023, feel free to mosey over to my Instagram (@Anxiety_Eternal) for such frivolity. If not, make no such detour.

This month brings more synth and electronic foul play than recent episodes while still retaining the expected viciousness and cold detachment I assume listeners expect of this project. Not much else to add, I’ll let you decide the merits of this installment.
