Gotta wonder why SIC decided to go with Screaming In Churches and not stay with the original Spastics Inducing Corruption. Although I do like the Screaming In Churches EP I think it's a bit long, I mean 8 songs in something like 15 minutes, talk about an album that drags on!
I remember them being called Spastics Inflicting Carnage haha. I think they changed the name a bit from memory. Also they're reforming for a benefit gig next month, playing with Persecution at The Bendigo Hotel around the corner from me. Will have to make sure I go.

Looking through MA at some of the bands here and the ones I remember I'm surprised by how are listed as reformed or reformed in the last decade.

Some of these are already on my list and regular to semi regular players.

I'm still trawling through all my old stuff too see what's floating around and what is available on YT. No idea when I'll finish the list but I'm steering clear of all black metal and black metal related stuff and quite a bit of death metal.

great stuff - l quite like what Vahrzaw does with death/black stuff. Do you know them CIG? they are from WA if l remember right? Used to chat to them on myspace and really piss George the singer off cause l though he sucked
 
This is new (out yesterday) for a black metal/heavy metal band from Melbourne.

No idea if they are any good but look @CiG blue skies no rain and a walk in the forest. Melbourne has good weather!
Although the clip goes for less than 5 minutes, it probably started raining before they packed up their gear.

Nope, new to me. Unless I blocked them out. I did attend a good deal of local black metal shows though so there's a chance I saw them.
 
Vic is/has been pretty prolific with a lot of thrash/death/black metal bands over the years.
I think I remember some of the bands from the 80's and 90's too fondly at times because revisiting some of them I'm shocked I ever liked them :)
 
I'm not quite sure how to feel about Rebel Wizard. I've checked out their past stuff and there have been moments where I enjoyed the music but I'm not a fan of the vocal style and a few other things here and there.
 
I'm not a huge fan. Some of their song titles read like King Gizzard song titles mixed with Frenzal Rhomb titles, but they aren't as catchy.
 
Haven't really given them a chance, although I probably should have.

Listening to Anarion right now. I haven't got their first album but they've got some fast riffing and reasonable tracks on the other two solid releases. AFAIK they are no more.
