Germany's Sex Beat Brings The Rage in their Newest Single, "Call Me"
Sex Beat’s “Call Me” slapped my left nut right off the bat with its frantically fast, distorted guitar riff opening opening before the rest of the band joins the fray. The drums keep a simple beat which actually works well with the frantic guitar playing, the bass that hits dope accents and the slightly distorted vocal wails that venture into screaming shouts.
Spider's Newest Single, "Deathmatch", Goes for the Killing Blow
Spider hails from LA, and their sound is so reminiscent of bands like The Adolescents, Wasted Youth, early Black Flag (Keith Morris), and C3 that I feel like I’ve been transported back 40 years. This song would fit right in with the songs and bands on your bootleg copy of Decline of Western Civilization. This is the kind of shit that got me into punk in the first place, so it’s great to hear this old school sound done in a rad modern way.
Cat Valley's New Single, My Body, Off of their new album Bingo Queen, is a Scathing Indictment of Patriarchal Oppression
There is so much rage mixed with self-empowerment in this song. Coming on the heels of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, this song is a banner call to action and defiance in the face of government actions like South Carolina’s newest draconian restriction on a women’s right to choose.
Noah Hines’s New Single “Lately” is None Too Late
Hailing from CO with his recorded done at the well known Blasting Room operated by Bill Stevenson (The Descendents, ALL, Black Flag), Noah has mixed punk rock with indie and emo in a compelling way that just has been instantly wanting to sing along.
Hound’s New Single “Ghost In The Grey” is Out Now!
The song is catchy and has just enough heaviness to it to give it the edge I prefer in a song.
The Snouts Bring that Fun Melodic German Punk Filled with Humor!
Yes. I admit it. I have no idea what they are saying. I have no idea what the title of the song “Fang an” means, and yes, I could look it up, but I’d rather review this the way I heard non-English punk rock as a kid in the 1990’s i.e. just getting a feel for it. And this feels dope as fuck!
This Sinking Ship’s New Single “Epicurean Paradox” is Out Now!
This Australian punk band brings smooth harmonies and melodies in a fast skate punk rock style that instantly catchy and easy to sing along with.
Kalbott’s “Life’s a Stench” Bridges That Gap Between 70’s Brit Punk and 90’s Socal Skate Punk!
Love to discover sick new bands, and this Israeli queercore is definitely a dope discovery!
Lifed New Single “Contingency” is a Brutal Mix of Hardcore, Metal and Grindcore!
“We are from NC and we make sweaty fat music for sweaty fat moshpits.”
Harker May Mean to Eavesdrop, but I’d Proudly Stand Out in the Front and Listen to This Band!
Mixing post punk fuzz guitar with shouted vocals and clean melodic poppy vocals, this UK band knows how to craft a song that make you want to move.
Fuck the Bare Minimum, This Band Goes for ALL!
Hailing from Toronto Canada, Bare Minimum has released a new track off their EP Uncaged which features songs about Nicholas Cage with each one related to a specific movie. I just finished watching the dope animated video for National Treasure, and even if I weren’t a Nick Cage fan and a social studies teacher, I would have loved the fuck out of this.
The Deflators “Liar, Liar” is a Ramonescore Classic!
As expected this song has a dope Ramonescore feel while also being unique with some new wave aspects that do not prevent it from rocking.
