Below is the latest installment of the “Get it or Die!” column with our man Pete Ponitkoff (former singer of Benümb, Agenda Of Swine, Lie Still, Treasonist, the list goes on), in which off the top of his head he tells us what music to check out.
What I’ve been listening to recently—I’ve been going back and listening to older releases from some bands, like PLF. I picked up Pulverizing Lethal Force. What a gem; truly a gem. Love it. And a really great recording.
Another thing, geez, the first few GridLink recordings [Amber Grey and Orphan]. Love ‘em, love ‘em. I mean, that’s some quality stuff, y’know? Just love that stuff to death.
What else have I been listening to? Like I said, nothing too new. Love the newest Cannibal [Corpse]. That’s been on regular rotation. I absolutely love that.
Oh, the newest—this shows you how far back I’m going here—Devourment. The newest recording with the older lineup? That is just really tough. It’s very, very heavy. Leaves such a smile on my face.
That’s what’s been going on. What I want to go check out right now, what’s hot on my tryout list right now, is the new Odious Mortem. I think it’s on Willowtip. So want to go pick that up.
Oh, and here’s another thing: I can’t push this hard enough right now. Triage, Triage, Triage. You can’t go wrong. Yeah, there we go.
Pete’s latest musical project is Arterial Artery.
