Jake in the desert<p>This week's <a href="https://c.im/tags/ThursDeath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThursDeath</span></a> is Scotland's CAUSTIC PHLEGM-- a one man metal project I've been enjoying IMMENSELY these last couple weeks. It has tape hiss, synths, jankiness that I dig, and ODSM-inspired grossness. There's a Caustic Phlegm demo out this year too with other songs, but this is their (his) full length debut LP, 'Purulent Apocalypse'. And its sound really lives up to its name. Grody growling, slimy riffs, and pounding, crushing drums. HUGE contender for me this year.</p><p><a href="https://caustic-phlegm.bandcamp.com/album/purulent-apocalypse" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">caustic-phlegm.bandcamp.com/al</span><span class="invisible">bum/purulent-apocalypse</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/metal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>metal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DeathMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DeathMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ScottishMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScottishMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/UKMetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UKMetal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Scotland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Scotland</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/CausticPhlegm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CausticPhlegm</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/synth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>synth</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/synths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>synths</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/2025Albums" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>2025Albums</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/2025Records" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>2025Records</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/2025Metal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>2025Metal</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/OSDM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OSDM</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@HailsandAles" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>HailsandAles</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@wendigo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>wendigo</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/@rtw" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>rtw</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://topspicy.social/@guffo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>guffo</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@flockofnazguls" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>flockofnazguls</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://graz.social/@BergRo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>BergRo</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://metalhead.club/@EisenTukan" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>EisenTukan</span></a></span></p>
