That's right this is the 36th year of SLUGGISHA TAPES ,started back in 1990 with a mailorder catalog of cassettes ,of local Ft Myers ,Florida bands,of all genres and sounds,mostly punk,metal,hardcore,noise,tardcore,and all kinds of stuff along the way! This year we are in the midst of NOISEKILLR's 40th anniversary as an experimental noise artist,and he is putting out a new release everyday of 2026! the links can be found on this blog ,back to NOISEKILLR's bandcamp page...there have been some splits with him,and a few other releases which aren't NOISEKILLR this year,but they have been few and far between,as NOISEKILLR is the main focus of the label this year...today or tomorrow SLUGGISHA TAPES will be releasing an overly long compendium of bands ,from back about 10-15 years ago,mostly newer acts to the label ,with a few stalwarts and oldtimers,in a compilation titled ,"BIG TIT HOAGIE" ,there were supposed to be 100 bands,but I don't think that number actually materialized.....there is definitely a shitload of music ,some bands turned in more than one track,there is probably at least 100 tracks....it may take a little longer to get this together,Im shooting for Sunday,but NOISEKILLR remains top of the pile.. ALSO coming up soon is SLUGGISHA'S XMASTRAVAGANZA # 16 !! the only contibutions so far are from my UK DJ pal Chris Stagg from surreyhillsradio.co.uk ,he wrote me about 9 or 10 lyrics to use on punk/xmas covers by UK punk bands ,so that will be cool,and is sure to have much airplay,besides that the regular stars will be on deck,GROB,BLOOD RED OSCARS,YOUNG JIT OG and more,coming in the beginning of December! ALSO my cousin's band ,"THE SECRET SYDE" ,I am almost ready to get their second album ,"EREBUS" ,pressed and released! unreleased since 1984 when it was recorded,and it has been remastered by my soundman JVSS,for a golden sound that wasn't captured in the original recordings...I was finally able to secure an investor,and got a couple dozen pre-orders,and this has been a labor of love for the past 10 years or more,as I have been trying my hardest to get this pressed and released on 12 inch vinyl,the way it was meant to be by Mutha Records back in 1984...RIP Rob Angello ,my cousin and drummer of The Secret Syde,and many other bands.....

SLUGGISHA.BLOGSPOT.COM has been on the internet since 2008,and this is the 18th birthday of the blog....currently every NOISEKILLR release,all 365 for this year,are being cataloged and posted here,linking back to bandcamp,and within a couple days ,the aforementioned,"BIG TIT HOAGIE" compilation will be unleashed upon an unsuspecting,and unknowing public...it will remain unheard by many,until far in the future ,when some cool kid discovers Sluggisha,and all the crazy and wild music made mostly by one guy ,sometimes with others,and sometimes by others without the one guy....he's used many aliases over the years,probably hundreds of fake names,he's still using a fake name today,and is the guy writing this stuff you're reading right now! That's correct ,your blogmaster here at SLUGGISHA.BLOGSPOT.COM,has used hundereds of names and been involved in hundreds of projects spanning 5 decades....someone will figure it all out someday.....I just recently found out i have severe to profound hearing loss from years of playing music and noise,and listening to the same....SLUGGISHA will never die....it will be carried on by someone I choose ,that I can trust,to keep everything going....I hope to be here at the helm,for a long time to come
