Just Barely Releases New EP: “An EP”

The moment I heard the vocals from Just Barely, I was taken back to 20+ years ago to a show at the Sidebar in Baltimore where my old band, The Overprivileged, was playing with Osker, that snotty fucking dope punk band that was on Epitaph Records, because that’s exactly what Just Barely sounds like.

The Ugly Cowboys Releases: “Life Sucks, Do Drugs”

Despite the fact that I didn’t have a "cheap vodka & bong rips" period during college and my general lack of drug experience, I find this to be one catchy ass fucking song.

Der Butterwegge Released New Single: “Kein Bock”

Der Butterwegge bring me that skacore like I grew up skanking to in the 1990’s with the blasting horns, skankable verses, and big distorted guitar punk choruses.

Mike and the Nerve Released a New Single: “Grace”

Having reviewed their previous single “Fool’s Gold, and False Idols”, I was stoked to see I was gonna get a chance to review their newest song. And what a fucking great song it is.

Dynasty Four Releases New Single: “Rome’s Bounty”

From the opening riff this song had me hooked. I love the interplay between the guitar riff and the bassline, and it’s fucking rad the way the song just ends abruptly right as I’m really digging it ‘cause it makes me want to put it on constant repeat to feed my need.

Blind Adam & The Federal League Releases New Single: “Cold Dead Hands”

This past July I received a text from my buddy Lou from Albany’s The Lurking Class telling me that I had to go see this band called Blind Adam & The Federal League at this DIY venue in Kingston, NY. He had just played with them a day or so earlier, and he was raving about them. A new DIY space? A new band? Plus Matt Pless? Fuck yeah!

Shiny Red Nothing Release New Single: “Baited Breath”

Mixing elements of punk, grunge, power pop and even some surf this band reminds me of the Undertones mixed with The Vaselines with maybe a touch of the Pixies.

You dig that early 2000’s emo pop punk a la Fallout Boy or New Found Glory with a touch of Blink 182?

The Würmen Release New EP: “Vas Deferens”

I reviewed one track off this Würmen EP back in early November: The Würmen Release New Single: “Cognitive Dissonance” and that one song had already made me a fan, and this EP has only strengthened that disposition.

Sociasylum Releases New Single: "Jeesus Maria!" karjatas eit

So this dope song filled with blast beats, d-beats and a killer breakdown played a breakneck speed is actually a cover a well known Estonian band that I’ve admittedly never heard of.
