Alright, here's the deal with Nunslaughter:

At first I looked over Nunslaughter. Mainly because of their name. I started to get interested in them due to the number of 7" that they had put out. I heard live stuff and I was impressed at the banter they had with the crowd. Think of Ghoul if you have ever seen them.

Their songs are death metal with a thrash base. Some punk influence - ie. short songs and no solos. I started downloading their stuff and got hooked. It's not for everyone, but they are a lot of fun.

They release stuff constantly, which I think is really cool. They are always writing and recording, so there is always something new coming out. The packing for their stuff can get outrageous. I've got a record with maggots covering it, one with an etched sawblade on the cover, crazy die cut fold outs etc... and the quality of their recordings really vary. It's a mix of studo live and rehearsal recordings.

I might post up some songs later for people who might be interested. But if anyone doesn't like them, they aren't 'missing' anything.
It's just that the band doesn't do it for them.

This thing on ebay was from a live show I videotaped in a ghetto in Philadelphia. I made a limited edition release with a book / posters / foldout / setlist flyers smeared with blood. I think its awesome that people are reselling it.

Here's how I described the show in an RTTP thread at the time:

Holy fuck. This was better than I thought.

This was a block party. The street was blocked off, and a ton of metalheads and crust punks were drinking in the middle of the street. This was in a Philadelphia ghetto. The whole area was suffering severe urban blight. Trash everywhere, boarded up buildings, closed businesses.

Bands were setting up right in the street and playing. Joel Grind showed up and there was an unnounced Toxic Holocaust set.

Nunslaughter were fucking great, and went on as the sun went down. They had skulls and inverted crosses setup, which must have been a treat for a church diagnally across the street. I can't express how unbelievable this was. The band is hysterical with their between song banter. The singer burst open a sealed container with an axe and sent a wave of pigs blood an 2 decapitated Pig heads out. People statred flinging blood, and some wonderfully half naked girls were parading the heads above the crowd. Vegan girls were screaming that this was offensive, a neighbor was trying to hose all the blood off of his stoop, drunk punks stumbling around and little black neigborhood kids in rap tshirts trying to headbang.

It was beautiful.
