One of the more obscure bands within the already incredibly obscure "gorenoise" scene, Black Mold Phallanx barely even registers on the 'net, with virtually no information to be found anywhere on who's behind this. Even the label Sweet & Sour Sewage is a ghost, some sub-label of the Splatterfuck Tapes label/distro. I was turned onto this band by the folks behind Reclusa, and loved this blast of sewer noise as soon as I heard it. Looking at the impossibly incomprehensible logo and cheap cut-and-paste artwork, you'd expect this to be another gorenoise tape along the lines of Anal Birth and Vomitoma, but BMP is more of a highly toxic mix of industrialized goregrind, harsh noise, bizarre processed vocalizations, and hyperspeed drum machine programming that verges on splittercore levels of tonal abuse. The twenty nine tracks on Unsanitary Breeding Ground are pretty vile, similar to Vomitoma in some ways, this way over the top with the spastic, nonsensical blastbeats strung out to absurd lengths, then chopped up into smaller blurts of percussive slop and shamble and splattered across the almost constant rumble of a massively distorted bass guitar and low end electronic noise. Sometimes the rhythms suddenly mutate into warped breakcore rhythms, weird shambling tribal breakdowns, or blasts of skullshredding speedcore , and simple, grinding riffs often emerging out of the gooey yuck. Elsewhere, the band pitches over into almost total harsh noise, a rumbling sputtering pile of static, uncontrolled drum machine rattle, and disgusting gastrointestinal gurgling. Even compared to what you heard in the goregrind and gorenoise scenes, the vocals are fucking ridiculous, a shapeless mass of gurgles, hissing, belches, grunts and vomiting run through intense effects and processing. With those harsh, blunt 1000 bpm blasts, this keeps reminding me of what Vomitoma or Urine Festival would sound like being remixed by Komprex or Pressterror at the bottom of a sewer. The first side of the tape is made up of more recent material from 2009-2010 and is in more of a cybergrind mode, while the older material on the second side can't even be qualified as metal, it's extreme putrescent noise with forays into ultra-distorted, formless blast.
