Album: Sloth/Noothgrush
Release: 1997
Label: Dom's
Tracklist:
1. Sloth - Local Hunter
2. Noothgrush - Killed By Deer
Noothgrush's split with the enigmatic Sloth is actually my second favorite proper release by the great sludgecore merchants and is trumped only by their perfect split with Corrupted. The main reason I'm posting this, however, is that because this split is hard to find in digital format, as it was only released on vinyl in two different pressings of 100 each (first blue, then red.) On top of this, the Noothgrush track was not (to the best of my knowledge) included on any of their posthumous collections.
Both tracks are some of the best material that each band released. The Sloth song begins with a a three-and-a-half minute intro of nothing but a slow, rumbling bass, but turns into a heavy, wacky, and (while I hate to use the word) rockin' jam with the band singing about "eating some people" or something. It rules. The Noothgrush track is more along the lines of classic, later-era Noothgrush and is just fucking tight. It has some of their better production, as well as songwriting. You will love this.
If you can get past the surface noise (this is a vinyl rip,) then I am certain you will enjoy this great pairing of two excellent bands. Thanks again!
