Relapse Records: 25 Years of Contamination (Free download)

Mojo · 02-18-2015, 05:13 PM

I had to post this here for the metal fans on the board.

From a press release from Relapse Records: "Our friend Kim Kelly wrote up an awesome feature on our 25-year history for Bandcamp and selected 25 definitive albums from our storied catalog.
What's more, we're offering up a MASSIVE 184-track sampler for FREE! Download 'Relapse Records: 25 Years of Contamination' here: Relapse Records: 25 Years of Contamination | Relapse Sampler
The sampler contains a track from just about every artist we've ever put out. From Suffocation and Incantation to Neurosis and The Dillinger Escape Plan to Baroness and INTER ARMA. Download it in an audio format of your choosing. Did we mention it's 100% FREE?!"

184 tracks, 1.9gb, of free music is certainly nothing to turn your nose up at. As well as the bands mentioned above it includes Mastodon, Pentagram, Red Fang, Voivod, Obituary, Windhand, Exhumed, Nile, Pig Destroyer, Godflesh, Indian, Minsk, Primitive Man, Nebula, Death, High on Fire, Amorphis, Cough...

I downloaded this a few days ago and still haven't listened to all thirteen hours and forty-five minutes of it (!), but the third of the comp I've made it through so far is absolutely fantastic. There's stuff on here I expected and I love (Unsane, High on Fire, Leng Tch'e), stuff I was surprised to discover was on relapse (Obituary, Death) and gems from people I've never heard of before (Windhand, Rwake, Nox Vomica). Really worth a listen.

Still working my way through it and it's still fucking great.
