The existence of the no cussing club implies the existence of a cussing club and that sounds fucking awesome
New song! This is a bouncy, groovy bop with plenty of seething aggression to tie it together. Really fun guitar solo after the bridge too! open.spotify.com/album/77w6Ou...

Another longshot, since I know most of my fans here aren't local, but we've got a local show coming up! Saturday, May 16th, alongside Living Dissection, Seeding the Dead, and Dhruv Talekar. We'll be performing a super-sized set featuring some new songs and a big surprise from the back catalog 😁
Listen there's three historical cornerstones of death metal in the world. Tampa, FL Gothenburg, SWE CORD. FUCKING. ARKANSAS
Highly accurate. I'm always making balanced characters lol
First review is in! Thanks to our friends at Metal Eclipse Reviews metaleclipsereviews.com/2026/03/30/t...
The Biscuit Merchant – Golden Age
Metalcatto The Biscuit Merchant is back, and if the artwork is telling us anything, they’re now the cookie dealer. If you owe them money, you end up like that. I knew it was only a matter of …

Dude you can always tell when people have heterochromia. Like you can see it in their eyes
Yeah yeah yeah, it's MY release radar of course I'm on it. Still cool to be up there with these big dogs 😁

I have to listen to my new album in full twice today please send help. This is sarcasm. This is actually my favorite day of the year
Unexplained Wounds is 5 years old today! It feels so much older than that. But to be fair, a lot of stuff has happened since then. I love this record. There's a certain confidence in these songs that makes me feel creatively nourished and satisfied. It just doesn't give a shit
Working working working. Sometimes (okay always) I wish music making was just...making music. But it turns out most of it is actually uploading files and sending emails.
Been revisiting a lot of classic albums lately. This one really hit the spot today
Spun an old favorite yesterday. This one's an all-timer. I think Supercrush could pull me out of the absolute worst depression imaginable
Staying in your car to finish the song but it was a Dream Theater song so the cops showed up because you were sitting there so long they thought you died
I noticed that metal show posters are putting band names in plain text underneath their incomprehensible logos and I legit love it lol
Last "first mix" is in the bag! Very cool to hear everything in a row. I'll be honest; I wasn't sure how this album was going to shape up. The focus was squarely on each individual song. So I was a bit worried they wouldn't flow well. I'm no longer worried. It flows just fine. Songs are tight af too
10/11 songs are polished and ready for mixing! Songs are all sounding super tight and breezy. Looking forward to the rest of the process!
Totally unrelated, but I'm starting to get into composing retro-ish (PS1/N64 style) video game music too. If you know anyone who wants some cheap, custom, non-AI tracks, hit me up!
To say I'm excited about the 2026 band would be a huge understatement. I can't wait to storm stages with these guys. They add so much energy to these songs. Justin Lawnchair - Guitar/Vocals Dan Hunter - Bass Guitar Dhruv Talekar - Rhythm Guitar/Backing Vocals Alonso Umana - Drums
