Already sold out from the label and out of print, this 7" is the first appearance from these Finnish noisecore legends in almost two decades, their last being that split 7" with Man Is The Bastard that came out in the early 90's. Old school noisecore and PV fans know what's up, though. While their output was minimal to say the least, Aunt Mary produced some seriously savage free-grind back in the day, and this Ep feels like hardly a day has passed since the last time that these maniacs battered my skull with their formless, barbaric din. The vile, pornographic cover artwork and confrontational, offensive imagery that's plastered across Almost Dead's full-color sleeve might look familiar (and deeply disturbing) to some folks, as it shares a similar assault collage aesthetic as the artwork found on Bizarre Uproar releases; that's because Pasi Markkula, the guy behind the Finnish harsh noise/power electronics of BU and Xenophobic Ejaculation is also one of the members of this outfit. No electronics here, though; if there are, they are unidentifiable underneath the brutal, low-fi junk noise / noisecore cacophony that Aunt Mary pukes up in a vicious torrent of blasting noise and fucked-up grind. The "songs", or whatever you want to call them, are delivered in super-short shock blasts of formless guitar vomit and guitar squonk, ridiculously messy and BRUTAL drum battery that sounds like the drummer is hammering away on an old oil drum with a rusted aluminum pipe, demonic howls with the effects on the vocals completely out of control, all blasted in five second eruptions of pure skullfuck. Sort of like old Anal Cunt, which isn't surprising, but more primitive (if you can even imagine that) and at the same time more psychedelic, with those wild, loopy shrieks and brief detours into monstrous doom slop, and some supremely mutant guitar playing that inadvertently gets into Sharrock-like territory with all of the strangled dissonance and honking, furious chords. It's still noisecore though, a blast of seriously abusive, yet classic blurr blast; fans of the old Aunt Mary 7"s should be pleased, and anyone into the likes of Seven Minutes Of Nausea, Anal Cunt, and Sore Throat owe it to themselves to pick up anything from these frenzied Finns. The 7" was released by AWWFN in a limited edition of 300 copies.
