BUCKSHOT FACELIFT To Play Grinding For A Cure Benefit This Weekend


Huntington, Long Island grindcore contortionists BUCKSHOT FACELIFT continue to mow down live audiences throughout the Long Island and NYC region with their sawed-off, point-blank explosiveness and gnarly stage banter.

Following a slew of shows throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan and Long Island over the past two months since the release of their intimidating Elder’s Rasp 11”, this Sunday, April 14th, BUCKSHOT FACELIFT will take part in Grinding For A Cure -- a benefit to further research Alzheimer’s Disease -- alongside ten other acts including The Communion, Mother Brain, Spirit Of St. Louis and more. New shows into June are being booked as well, with a bash on June 15th locked at ABC No Rio with The Communion and more. Check out more info below, and watch for more shows to be loaded into the chamber in the coming days.

BUCKSHOT FACELIFT Live:
4/14/2013 2628 Gerritson Ave - Brooklyn, NY @ Grinding For A Cure w/ Mother Brain, The Communion, Spirit Of St. Louis, Budd Dwyer, Intheshit, more
6/15/2013 ABC No Rio - New York, NY w/ The Communion

Since 2004 BUCKSHOT FACELIFT has infiltrated the underground with an abortive and explosive death/grind//hardcore hybrid, ripping through D.I.Y. venues throughout the Long Island and NYC region. In February the outfit unloaded their third full-length, the monstrous Elder’s Rasp, its sixteen tracks surging with their most torturous and discordant metallic hardcore/doom-influenced riffage to date, a more vomit-gurgling, deranged relative of Brutal Truth or Disassociate fused with mangled remnants of Discordance Axis or Deadguy. Produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Keith Moore at Audio Playground in Ronkonkoma, Long Island, the band self-released Elder’s Rasp digitally as well as on 11” vinyl in a vast array of color/splatter schemes, all hand-numbered, limited to 300 copies.

Unleash Elder’s Rasp in its disgusting, bestial entirety -- tunes that “directly reflect the turmoil and stress of being a blue collar grindcore band marred by a dismal past of dead friends, alcohol, and distant women” -- RIGHT HERE.

BUCKSHOT FACELIFT: Long Island Filthgrind Savages Deliver Self-Released 11” LP

Sworn to come back harder and more hateful than ever in 2013, and already proving it, Huntington, Long Island grindcore faction BUCKSHOT FACELIFT have delivered their latest auditory assault on the scum of the Earth with their self-released Elder’s Rasp LP.

Since 2004 these henchmen have infiltrated the underground with an abortive and explosive death/grind//hardcore hybrid, ripping through D.I.Y. venues throughout the Long Island and NYC region. Following a demo in 2005 demo,BUCKSHOT FACELIFT -- vocalist William Smith (Artificial Brain, ex-Biolich), guitarist Dan Baranello, bassist Tom Anderer (Thirsty) and drummer Sal Gregory (Grey Skies Fallen) -- released their debut LP Universal Goat Tilt with local label Burn it Down/Rebuild Records. The label subsequently folded, so in 2009 the band went back to their D.I.Y. basics and self-released their follow-up LP Anchors of the Armless Gods on limited, etched vinyl.

In 2012, BUCKSHOT FACELIFT hit the studio to create their third album, in the process revamping the longtime lineup and replacing guitarist Dan Baranello with Paulo Paguntalan of NYC death/gore outfit Copremesis. The results of these torturous, booze-soaked sessions would see the band diversifying their range with more discordant metallic hardcore/doom-influenced riffage, culminating their most putrid output yet, as the sixteen-track Elder's Rasp. Directly after recording, Paulo left to pursue other projects, the band then doubling their axe attack and inducting Rick Habeeb (Grey Skies Fallen) and Terrel Granum.

Elder’s Rasp is out now directly through BUCKSHOT FACELIFT, produced, recorded, mixed, & mastered by Keith Moore at Audio Playground in Ronkonkoma, Long Island. The band pressed this beast on 11” vinyl in a vast array of color/splatter schemes, all hand-numbered, limited to 300 copies, as well as digital download.

Unleash Elder’s Rasp in its disgusting, bestial entirety -- tunes that “directly reflect the turmoil and stress of being a blue collar grindcore band marred by a dismal past of dead friends, alcohol, and distant women” -- RIGHT HERE.
