Do YOU know what it's like?

I've decided to use this blog to share some old demo tapes and the like to provide a new opportunity for some of these classic obscure gems to be unearthed and appreciated by a new generation...or whatevers.

First up on the list is Enrage's "Ugly" tape.  This was so far ahead of its time - super tight, insanely heavy groove/slam with unusual levels of emotion for the style rather than the typical tough guy approach.  Think Life of Agony meets Disembodied or something with a unique Noo Yawk flair.  As the Very Distro catalog described it, "produces the kind of mosh pits that people get hurt in" or something.  Just check it out!
