Ed Gein - It's a Shame...


Ed Gein - It's a Shame Your Family Can Be Torn Apart by Something as Simple as a Pack of Wild Dogs (2003)


Ed Gein is an everythingheavyandnoisycore band from Syracuse, New York. Their name comes from the American murderer and body snatcher who inspired the likes of Hollywood slayer stars Norman Bates, Leatherface, and Buffalo Bill (Wiki). He was the kind of guy who would invite someone over for dinner and keep them a little too late, someone he may have picked up from a local graveyard or an innocent hardware store owner. Someone good enough for his personal trophy collection and bone and skin collection. So yeah, he was a pretty fucked up guy, perfect for such a gruesome sounding band.

Over and under all the noise and hybrid grind stuff in 'It's a Shame...' are samples from the 2001 cult classic, Donnie Darko. I'll admit it, I'm a big fan.


Sorry for the lack of posts lately but all this finals/graduation/Berserk stuff is getting in my way...

I'll be relentlessly posting goodies for you all summer, I promise!
