“Nowhere Existence” (2007) by Doldrums – 7” 33RPM EP.
Four tracks of sludge/grindcore. Or if you want the blunt version: black metal, but punkier. The guitars and bass lock in tight, the blast beats are razor-precise, and the vocals are shrill screams instead of the usual cavern-growls. It’s chaos, but controlled chaos.
What I always find funny is how “extreme” music like this actually goes down easier than so-called “easy listening.” Elevator jazz makes me want to leap out the window—this? I could spin it all afternoon.
Solid EP, and one of the few relics from this Denver outfit. A short, sharp shot of noise that still holds up.

what does ep stand for? Or is it like a speech impediment but typed?
EP stands for Extended Play. It’s got a length between a single and an LP (a.k.a., album).
Vinyl must have been before your time.
No, I wear vinyl all the time
Just FYI it stands for Extended Play not Enhanced. Keep rocking vinyl ;)
No it doesn't, it stands for Extended Play
Dunno what the snarky "vinyl must have been before your time" proves seen as EPs have continued to be released through all medias and you didn't know what it was either.
There was no snark. It was more like, “Oh, must have been before your time”.
I did get the word wrong but it was mostly because I was tired. And the giveaway should be that I got the second word right and explained it’s somewhere between a single and an LP.
I’m politely asking you to be civil in this community from here on out.
