Oregon Metal Spotlight #6: Misery Whip (Portland, OR)

Some bands make metal.

Some bands sound like they crawled out of a fucking Oregon logging camp at 3AM with blood on their boots.

MISERY WHIP is the second kind. ☠️

Dirty. Heavy. Mean as hell. The kind of shit you throw on when you want your speakers to sound like they’re about to file a restraining order.

If you haven’t fucked with Misery Whip yet, consider this your warning:

TURN IT UP.

P.s — Thank you whoever recommended me this band.

Oregon Metal Spotlight #5: Weapon World (Bend, OR)

You want GRINDCORE? You want it fucking unhinged? Then you need to hear Weapon World.

These dudes sound like someone threw a blender full of grindcore, chaos, violence, blast beats, and pure fucking insanity at the wall and somehow it came out sounding incredible. 🤘💀

No bullshit. No unnecessary polish. Just absolute sonic carnage from start to finish.

If you’re into extreme music and somehow haven’t heard Weapon World yet, fix that shit.

Oregon Metal Spotlight is about putting more eyes and ears on the bands making the underground worth paying attention to.

Go listen. Crank that shit. Then come back and tell us what the fuck just happened.

Death metal fans: what band does this remind you of?

My band Acidic Decay released our first Album after years of jamming and doing nothing with it and we’ve been getting wildly different comparisons. Some people hear old-school death metal, others hear thrash influences.
FFO: Obituary, Bolt Thrower, old-school death metal riffs.

Curious what you hear.

I am so fed up with the people who own this magazine now

For context, I purchased the digital sub so I could download and backup all of the issues released since the reboot. It clearly said I would receive the newest issue plus the past issues. I was confused of where to actually find them, so I emailed the subscription support. It said they would respond within 48 hours. I sent an email explaining that I wasn't sure how this worked and I'd like some help. No response. 4 days go by, and I email again to make sure they saw my email. Nothing. I emailed one more time a few days later, nothing again. It has been almost right at 3 weeks and still nothing. I'm sure it's out of range for a refund now. This management is a complete joke.

UPDATE:

The support team finally reached out to me with the following:

"My apologies for the delayed response. It looks like your email was accidentally filtered into our spam folder, which is why we weren't able to respond sooner.

The launch of the new Digital 2.0 platform has encountered some unexpected delays. We’re taking the extra time to make sure everything is properly set up and working as it should before releasing it.
