Listen: /watch/wg0-qcsWwM3W- While arguably more metal than the first two volumes of City Morgue music, Toxic Boogaloo still feels like a step down for the duo.

@CameronThatcher4 years ago Anthony I do not care what you say about this album, it makes me feel invincible and that's all what matters 2293
@

@willfinegan8224 years ago “Lyrics are bad” yea everyone listens to city morgue for their profound lyrics 489
@

@Dmitri-hs1jc4 years ago Saying that Sosmula should be deported was pretty rude melon 532
@

@FHornHero4 years ago "you can smd" is the funniest song I've heard all year 751
@

@NoiseJester_4 years ago Sosmula absolutely murdered Yakuza, one of my favorite morgue songs. I can't get enough of it. 452
@

@julianrosenits4 years ago Solid 9/10, every track is an absolute banger, the instrumentals are brutal, the choruses slap, the verses are just outlandishly violent and the duo has a chemistry like no other. Love this project. 637
@

@dannymustdie32564 years ago pretty sure they said this was just for fun and their fr album’s coming soon 1639
@

@user-yk1ke8xv4k4 years ago POV: you clicked on the video, immediately checked the score in the description, then came to the comment section for memes 645
@

@cason35474 years ago As a teacher who’s stressed with school starting and doing online teaching, this is the perfect angry loud music soundtrack for my mood rn 543

@bruh-md4vm4 years ago am i the only one who actually liked every song on this tape? 357
@

@bzrkr4444 years ago This wasn't really a serious project anyway, just something to keep ppl satisfied b4 vol 3 comes out 245
@

@connorlonergan49674 years ago Yakuza is an absolute slap though. I literally cannot listen to it without losing my shit 121
@

@siren6044 years ago "YOU CAN SMD" is the modern counterpart to Slipknot's absolute banger of a classic "Get This" and nobody is going to take that away from me 118
@

@Bornagainvillain4 years ago I like the EP, but I always end up going back to volume 1 or 2. I gotta say though, I'm liking Sosmula's solos a lot better now. 114
@

@michaelbell49304 years ago 1st volume: Solid. A little one dimensional. Great energy.
2nd volume: Some of the same stuff with a bit of a new direction here and there but the latter isn't as sharp. Maybe next time.
This one: Starting to feel formulaic. Back to step one. But I don't care. When it's on, there is no one greater than me, I destroy all enemies with a single thought of malice, the weeds in my yard water the plants for me, and death itself has given me a ten-year extension. It kinda slaps.
Edit: It's starting to sound like some of these riffs are made with like FL Slayer or something. Yikes? ... 233

@mileslong71034 years ago It’s insane 69’s career started with these guys lol 43
@

@TheTennesseeFistMachine4 years ago Wasn't this supposed to be in GTA or something? I remember reading about that. 24
@

@user-kb2ti4zo3q4 years ago Yeah I wasn’t too crazy about this project either , HURTWORLD and yellow piss slap tho 121
@

@normharr4 years ago Anthony, I love the review, but was it really necessary to say high hat 300 times in a row? 27
@

@APBT3chnoM0nkey4 years ago Review a Scarlxrd album. Curious what you think of Acquired Taste Volume 1 aspecially. MAKE IT HAPPEN 25
@

@nazdrave97144 years ago I always felt like the first tape is their best one, this one and vol. 2 go hard, but vol.1 be hittin way harder, energy is unmatched imo 37
@

@theoldjakefromstatefarm3674 years ago Whoa hey there ya got a lil too much dip on ya chip 24
@

@skinc4rver4 years ago They both said that this is basically a b-side release. It's leftovers, but it's fun. It doesn't really change anything for me though, Zilla's voice make me max out at the gym and that's all that matters. ... 7
@

@francescoanimations24594 years ago Hey Anthony you blinked in the thumbnail 10
@

@stringer41934 years ago Yeah I wasn't too crazy on this EP either, but Zilla has said that they have an actual album coming soon so hopefully that'll make up for it. I hope city morgue starts to go back to their roots a little more and use more bassy instrumentals like 33rd blakk glass, rather than the standard guitar riff that's seen all over this project. ... 7
@

@MrRedZach4 years ago Imagine if 69 was actually a good friend to ZillaKami 41
@

@moritzr.63334 years ago This is more like a fun tape/ep before their real album. Kinda sounds like a demotape mixtape fusion 8
@

@Squiggles954 years ago Anthony says his least favorite track is “You Can SMD” but it’s the one I listen to the most from the tape 💀💀 3
@

@JhonCIMA4 years ago So if you give light 5s to both zilla and sos then together they get a strong 10, right? 14
@

@tofulemonade63294 years ago Saw these guys live last year when they opened for suicide boys. They were by far the best opening act out of the 3 I saw. 7
@

@MajorLeagueBassboost4 years ago Which part of "EP" does this guy not understand 30
@

@AGP474 years ago This isn't the first time Melon hasn't liked power pleasants production 5
@

@EpicCoolGuy214 years ago 0/10, album slapped so hard it made me drive 30 above the speed limit in a 30 and got me a $300 ticket, would not recommend 3
@

@Sean-km2mh4 years ago Anthony you didn’t need to put my mother in the morgue. I miss her so much why did you do this 18
@

@joshhunter69284 years ago Day 3 of asking fantano to review the cats soundtrack 11

@kelleyreeves9654 years ago I started listening to this when we heard a couple songs on your new music Friday stream! Otherwise I would've had no idea that this group existed 5

@CryingB1oodTears4 years ago Bro, I never knew you were on YouTube 6 years ago, I just found one of your comments on Bones & Xavier Wulf’s WeDontBelieveYou
@

@kale62324 years ago I'm jealous of your dancing abilty, would love a review of a Club Kuru album
@

@splashcash32664 years ago i wish he put the name of the track he’s reviewing in one of the corners so that you can easily keep track of what song he’s reviewing and he just changes it when he starts reviewing a new song 1
@

@edgybigkid66124 years ago Still waiting on that rocci and ramirez review 4
@

@jayden57564 years ago Asking Anthony to review MM...FOOD until he does day 18 14
@

@radiofreeezra98414 years ago I haven’t even watched it yet but I’m so glad you made a review on this tape. It is ridiculously hard
@

@blakeprocter58184 years ago I can agree with the lyrics not being all there, and being downright dumb in a few places. I cannot agree with the production though. Every beat on this EP just hits perfectly. It may even be my favourite production on a Morgue project yet. Even on the weaker tracks like Yakuza and Super Soaka the beats are still really good. I think it's my second favourite Morgue project after Vol. 1 ... 2
@

@gilvanferreira54144 years ago suggestion: Toda História pela Frente by Kaatayra 1
@

@TheLunarZone4 years ago As a long time City Morgue fan, I'm extremely glad they are free from the label. As much as I enjoyed some of these tracks, I know that they have far more ambitious ideas in their catalogue (hinted with songs like The Balloons) most of which couldn't be released because of their label. With all the leaks, they needed to hussle in order to fill in the album that would free them from Hikari Ultra. Now that they are free to do what they want, I can definitely see them evolving their sound to the more mellow side of things reminiscent of leaked tracks such as frailty, some say, end is near, etc. Sosmula is definitely stepping into his own as well ... 1
@

@capndye914 years ago I would absolutely love to see you review something by Tipper. One of the very best and most well respected dj/producer/sound engineer in music. Forward Escape or Broken Soul Jamboree would be good albums to review.
@

@craymaste54424 years ago What do I have to do to get you to review my project
@

@0r8it794 years ago They said this was the stuff that didn't make vol. 3 wich will release soon and tbh alot of the songs are bangers 1
@

@xbuster9994 years ago U have to listen to Rocket Man by Zillakami, its so good and give u a touch of what zilla is capable of. 2
@

@ACWall985last month All Killer No Filler’s riffs is actually sampling Get Up Again by Flaw. once i heard it, nostalgia kicked in

@

@nocluebitch4 years ago I feel like im too much of a City Morgue fan but the EP is rounding the 5/10-6/10 rating witch is pretty good i do love the funny and energetic songs that the put in this 1
@

@ACEYY74 years ago Please review Gucci Krim Dogs debut album 'Krimville' it is truly a masterpiece. 3
@

@deant.43824 years ago While I respect your opinion, I disagree on this one. To me it feels like banger after banger. I'll definitely need to check out the older records of theirs tho so I appreciate the recommendation! 2
@

@pnyro31504 years ago To be fair, they did say this album was just made for fun for their actual album incoming, and it does everything city morgue is good at 2
@

@JackLoSquartator34 years ago Hi Anthony! I suggest you an album to review! I think is really interesting but the band Is really underground!
Is a mixture of thrash, prog, and heavy metal, great stuff for me.
The band Is called "Helikon" and the album Is "Myth & Legend".
Let me know!! ...
@

@homeboyflamefr52653 years ago Arguably his best album. Def one of my favs all time 2
@

@saber9132 years ago I just discovered city morgue and zilla recently and have had this playing non-stop. It’s fucking AMAZING. 1
@

@mattredgate57404 years ago This is just an EP man, vol. 3 is coming soon and ik that is gonna blow us out of the water. This EP is amazing in my opinion, every song slaps. but my one criticism is hurt world 99 kinda sucks but other than that I can’t stop playing every song ... 1

@mayitakeyourhatsir86324 years ago I didn't enjoy this entire thing that much, but my fucking God The Electric Experience goes ballistic 1
@

@ThaLedg4 years ago You Know what is one of the best parts is of being a City Morgue fan outside some of the freshest rage / workout music you get on a consistent basis?
The fan base itself... I mean how often do you see an album receive a 5 from melon yet nobody really rages about it because they know the music isn't for everyone? It's legit one of the most chill fanbases I've seen ... 4
@

@xaz46444 years ago the tape was mostly throwaway besides hurtworld, yakuza and crank its kinda just hype for the new album which hikari said was probably around october
@

@bradleyparrott36864 years ago Personally for me, ive been getting into city morgue a lot since they released the "as good as dead" albums. And i have to say the only song i feel appeals to me is "all killer no filler". Honestly i would have given this a 2/3 ...
@

@Jester_8514 years ago Gotta be honest, I think it's their best output yet. All killer, no filler (okay maybe I'm not too crazy about the hook on CRANK but still)
