Mind Melt Enterprises has listed nearly every release on the label for free:
Owned by Jesse P. Malinowski, the label is primarily focused on hardcore. I can attest to the quality of their physical products and excellent customer service , so please, support this label. The opportunity to check out the music digitally is a great way to decide if you would like these records for your collection and of course to introduce you to bands you may go on to follow when they come around on tour. If you have read some of my other posts you know I feel that offering digital music for free can only help the indie artists/labels.
Of the releases, I would personally recommend HARNESS and UGLY PARTS very strongly.
Harness, from Santa Barbara, is for those looking for a uniquely aggressive blend of metal and hardcore.
They list Buried Alive, Turmoil, Bloodlet, Mayhem, Crowbar, Kickback, Disembodied, Integrity, All Out War, Burzum, and Entombed as their influences.
Ugly Parts is an awesome hardcore punk band from New Brunswick, NJ that brings to mind that killer SSD, Boston type of sound. Mike McGauren is the band's energetic frontman, you may know him from his drumming for the bands Seasick and Bible Thumper.
You can buy that EP on Mind Melt, and also listen to their demo HERE.
If you like this band you should definitely check out this great t-shirt Mind Melt did for them... it's one of my favorite personal band tees...
