Those lucky jerks/ducks at Decibel have the Connoisseur stream, damn it. It’s because , well…they are more popular than us. Actually we love Decibel and the people from there I have met or talked to over the years have always been super cool. We’re not above sending you their way! Bring them some rice krispy treats from Metal Riot! Stoner Justice is upon us.Check out the album stream HERE. It’s pretty damn fast for a “weed” band.

There are some bands more adept at riding the chaos than others in the storied history of underground music. From noise and hardcore pioneers like Steel Pole Bathtub to Man Is The Bastard to synth/indie/post-core bands like Six Finger Satellite to numerous grindcore bands like Fuck The Facts, etc.- some groups just embody the concept of "fuck it/let's really go for it" more than others. NY's Black Mesa sits proudly in that same spirit of frenzy and ferocious inventiveness, as evidenced by their recent compilation of insanely manic live performances. Whatever sub genre they throw in the emotional blender, you are bound to enjoy a deliciously nutritious smoothie of muddy sonic punk purée.
