Musical Inbreeding: The Die Slaughterhaus Family Tree

Click to enlarge

Most punk scenes are incestuous fuckpiles of friends and rivals and girlfriends and shared drummers, but Atlanta's really puts the rest to shame. We asked Mark from Die Slaughterhaus Records to make a little Who's in Whose for the past 15 years of his label's roster and this is what he gave us. Look at this thing. It's more tangled than the syphilis chart from the Rockdale County high school outbreak. What's really mind-boggling is like 30 of these 44 bands are still active but what's still yet even more boggling is that every one of them is good. Seriously, we're not even going to try to break them all down for you, just go to the DSH website and buy everything you can. There's not a stinker in the bunch.
