Forever Unclean – ‘Float’ The Forthcoming 7″.

Forever Unclean – Copenhagen, Denmark. This might just be our first audio-trip to Denmark and I really fancy a Danish. No, this time, this time I am not talking about a deliciously sweet and crumbly pastry. No, I am rather speaking of fast, abrasive yet playful and smile inducing Pop-Punk infused...

For I Am – It’s… ‘All About Perspectives’

For I Am – Belgium. For I Am are a band from Belgium. They are band that quite unashamedly state (or admit) that the world probably didn’t need another Pop-Punk band. However, as is obvious they chose to form one anyway and have since elected to break a silence of...

Caste Bravo – ‘Foreign Object Free’.

Castle Bravo – Perth, Western Australia, Australia. When you listen to Perth Punk-Rock band Castle Bravo you hear a band that has done their sonic homework and a band that has paid attention to the last twenty or so years of Punk music. The band take cues from the likes...

In Gear With… Shift-D.

Shift-D – Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Shift-D are certifiable veterans. They are band that have existed in their own Punk-Rock world for the past seventeen years and finally they are a band that have seen somewhat of a resurgence in the past two years. With five releases dated from the year...

The Elusive Sounds of Ladderlad and ‘No Good Idea’.

Ladderlad – Ontario, Canada. Ladderlad is an elusive musician from somewhere in Ontario in Canada. From an early age through a slow but decisive flirtation with Punk-Rock and the likes of staple revivalists NOFX, his adoration for organised sound began to take form. NOFX may well have become a huge...

Matty Effin Morison and Their ‘Songs’.

Matty Effin Morison – New South Wales, Australia. Sometimes you need an album that really doesn’t waste any time, an album that simply is what it is. Now, Punk-Rock is relatively consistent and providing such a cathartic release and with the debut album from Matty Effin Morrison, simply entitled Songs, you are...

Fresh Picks: Kill The President!

Kill The President! – Valencia, Spain. Cover photo credit: Greet Druyts. Today’s Fresh Picks concerns a four-piece that I’ve been meaning to write about for some time now. So without further wording, we present Valencia‘s own technical Melodic Hardcore Punk-Rock band, Kill The President! The band are currently working on their first...

CUT UP – ‘I’ll Burn That Bridge When I Get To It’.

CUT UP – San Francisco, California, USA. For our previous work on the band – Click Here. Since we last saw San Francisco Cali-Punk exports CUT UP, their second release I’ll Burn That Bridge When I Get To It has made its way to centre stage for another in the...

Out Of The Ashes: Paper Champ and The 2016 Debut.

Paper Champ – Ipswich, England, United Kingdom.   Fast and melodic Skate Punk is not something that comes to mind when on the thought-train of UK Punk. Yet in recent incarnations of the scene and it’s contemporary form this facet of Punk-Rock is just as blistering as it is else...

Neverlearn – The ‘Start Tomorrow’ EP.

Neverlearn – Oulu, Finland. Cover photo credit: Juha Kuusela. Somewhere in the forestation of Finland there’s a search and rescue in operation tracking down Metal bands that got lost during their photo shoots, but these Punks needn’t worry about such travesties. Skate-punkers Neverlearn are too busy paying homage to the golden...
