Poland’s Abort! Deport Releases New Song: “Twist Pack”
From the opening vocals of this Abort! Deport’s new song, “Twist Pack”, I immediately thought of Fat Mike and early NOFX. This is some rad ass 90’s style skate punk with a bit more rawness that helps set it apart.
RODERIK Release New Song: “Panic”
RODERIK’s new single, “Panic”, is a mix of hardcore, posthardcore, metal and screamo with a lot other shit happening here. If you mixed elements of Sleeping With Sirens, Pierce The Veil, The Used, Magnolia Park, Point North you’d get this band.
Take Out the Blade Releases New Single, “Lowlife (Worthless)”
Take Out the Blade’s first single, “Lowlife (Worthless)”, is my kind of metal with lots of 80’s style thrash with some more 90’s slow riffage thrown in to mix it up.

Right on the heels of their previous single that I reviewed, “Kitchen Light”, Rocket Steadman are back with a new skalicious single, “Lockdown” both of which are off their forthcoming album And We Have Lift Off and makes me what to skank and pick it up as much as the last one!

Drops from France plays hardcore in the vein of Turnstile, Backtrack, Trapped Under Ice, Terror. Their “Pressure” is off their new EP, Feel It, that came out a few weeks ago.
Monte Releases New Single: “Dysfunctional Mess”
Monte’s new song, “Dysfunctional Mess” blends grunge, punk and metal into a rad ass fucking single about pulling your shit together and finding a way come out of a band relationship better than you were when you went in. Yeah you fucked me up, but I came back better, so fuck you right back.
Sorry Sweetheart Release New Single: “Sweatpants (Are All That Fit Me Right Now)”
Sorry Sweatheart’s new single “Sweatpants (Are All That Fit Me Right Now)” bring that 1990’s ska punk that reminds me mostly of bands like Reel Big Fish particularly with the ways the horns are incorporated and the guitar tone.
Girth Brooks Release New Single: Cajun Crust
In their own words Girth Brooks is a pizza themed metal band who write songs about pizza. I’m a little sad that I didn’t find them dressed up like Pizza the Hut in any of their pictures on IG, but I did appreciate the pizza face masks.

Asfixia Social bring it all to the table and fucking let it rip with a mix of ska, rap, hardcore, punk, funk, dub all flavored with the Brazilian music of their country. And if that weren’t enough, “Traffic Lights” even has some rad ass guest vocals from Joey Shithead from D.O.A. one of my favorite hardcore punk bands!
Whippets Release New Single: “Ice”
Whippets are a post punk band whose sound somewhere along the lines of themselves though I can tell they are likely fans of Fugazi, Jesus Lizard and GBV which tells you absolutely nothing still. I know. Let me try to narrow it down for you.
Sickrecy Releases New EP: Split with Barren
Where to start? My first thought when I heard a song from Sickrecy was of Magrudergrind and Assholeparade, but after listening to the full EP, Split with Barren, I realized that there is so much more than grindcore happening here.
