Ed Gein's music has been labeled as grindcore,[2][6] metalcore,[4][5] mathcore and noise rock,[5] featuring influences from thrash metal.[1] On their third album, Bad Luck, the band shifted from their previous technical grindcore in favor of a more hardcore punk-influenced sound.[5] The band's lyrics, primarily written by bassist Aaron Jenkins, are politically charged and features social commentary, on topics including racism in the United States,[2] sexism, homophobia and bureaucracy.[6]

On April 11, 2018, it was announced the band had split up and the members would be forming a new band called Shadow Snakes.[7]

Compilations

  • It's a Shame (2005)
gollark: I wonder if AMD's PSP has similar holes. In any case, they should really just not be sticking subprocessors with closed-source non-user-modifiable firmware and root access into every CPU.
gollark: I don't think there's a reason they couldn't other than bad performance. Which might require you to turn down quality, increase bitrate, decrease resolution/framerate or whatever else.
gollark: I think the LattePanda ones are just x86.
gollark: You need the URL-encoded-body parsing middleware, basically.
gollark: Something like that anyway.
