Japanese multi-instrumentalist Kosuke Hashida, best known for his work with death metal/hardcore outfit World End Man, is back with his second album in two years. Following up 2024’s Justifiable Homicide, new album Outrage picks up on a similar page, dishing out 11 tracks of grindcore and death metal.
There aren’t many frills to be found on Outrage; Hashida knows what he wants and executes it cleanly on the new album, delivering meat-and-potatoes grind in the vein of Brutal Truth, Lock Up and Pig Destroyer.
“Kosuke Hashida’s second solo album Outrage was recorded by himself in his home studio in Tokyo in 2024,” Hashida told Decibel in a statement. “The album is full of anger and heavily influenced by the 80’s thrash and early 90’s death/grind.”
Outrage is out on February 14, so you have at least one thing to look forward to this weekend.
