The Lousy - Demons on Parade

Newer crossover thrash from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Released this debut EP in 2022. Has elements of stenchcore and blackened crust but placed firmly within thrash. Shitty n gritty production but that’s to be expected with stenchcore lol. Has some Maiden-esque hooks in the middle of the song too!

Seems they split up shortly after their second EP in 2023; what a bummer cuz I thought I found a new act to follow with interest.

Well this was fun! :D
Played through both their titles, loved it all.
Great find, thanks!
Never heard of stenchcore before, but keep ‘em coming please ;)

Stenchcore is like gritty production proto-death with lots of hardcore punk, I think?? I mostly listed it cuz RYM had it under the genres, and it’s similar to other stuff under than genre descriptor, like Sacrilege, or Napalm Death’s first output(s)

I feel like these guys were at the cradle of the genre… They called their niche Splattercore ;)

Also these guys… Horsecore! XD

This should be in the Death department, but if we’re exchanging stench, this can’t be ignored!

Ah the infamous Been Caught Buttering.. lol, classic.

Oh I actually like this one quite a bit. But it seems to be more simply crossover thrash/groove metal?

It probably is. At the time of release it sounded rather unique to me, so I put it in the dirtier sounding area of hardcore. There weren’t all these sub genres then and bands just invented their own niches like horsecore or splattercore or whatever :D

Ha yea. I remember a friend I had growing up got tired of all the little nuances and subgenre lines and shit and was like “Isn’t this all just metal??” Which I get but at the same time, I more vehemently disagree with the older I get.

Track 4 Live For Violence is basically a rework/upgrade of Metallica’s No Remorse! :D
