From London and Brighton, Old Chase are a skate punk band who are releasing their third album ‘At The End Of All The Thrills’ on 3rd October 2025. Consisting of 11 short tracks, the longest is their last track ‘Endgame’, at 2 minutes 47 seconds. They may be brief, but each song has a lot of energy and passion! Fast, melodic, hardcore, rapid, aggressive, and catchy as fuck!Continue Reading

Out of the ‘biz’ for some time, Polly b Rose don’t look back. Their debut energetic, exciting, wonderfully excess free album 'Moltencholia' is 10 songs in 35 minutes, and it’s amok with emotive rhythms.Continue Reading

Following their album ‘Doll’, released on 28th March this year, Liliths Army are unleashing their next single ‘Cursed’ on 24th October 2025, via Criminal Records, with the music video fittingly being released at 10am on Halloween (31st October 2025). It’s one of my personal favourites from the album, haunting, powerful, passionate and emotional. So much expression, Continue Reading

With Subhumans iconic logo, rapid-fire, hard-hitting lyrics and breakneck speed, crunching guitars, the band still stands out as one of the best anarcho-punk bands to come out of the early 80s. Supported by BarrelHaus, an alt-rock duo from Oxford. The dual guitars and vocal sharing duties work well here, producing a solid wall of sound that makes them sound like a far Continue Reading

The Let’s Go’s are pure musical joy. From the moment they kick off with the euphoric pop-punk rush of ‘In My Head’, the Japanese trio bounce around the stage with carefree abandon; they clearly love what they do, and it’s as if they can hardly believe that they’re so far from home and still drawing a decent crowd.Continue Reading

In terms of prime-quality blue collar punk n’ roll played with maximum passion, this takes us right back to seeing Social Distortion at the Astoria (RIP) twenty-odd years ago - it was a triumphant return for Mike Ness’s crew, and should he be looking to pass the torch to a new generation, The Drowns are absolutely ready to take it.Continue Reading

On 31st August 2025, Paradiso held a punk festival in its big hall. Journalist and DJ Oscar Smit launched a new expanded version of the first volume of his book series on punk in Paradiso. This volume is about proto-punk in 1976, and the explosion in 1977, after the Sex Pistols had played Paradiso. There is also a new compilation LP on Suburban Records 'NEDERPUNK: The Continue Reading

Teo Wise and his band have come all the way from Italy, and from the start, it’s clear that they’re having a ball, with the main man brandishing his Flying V guitar like some kind of rock n roll rifle. Self-described as ‘spaghetti rock n’ roll’, he blends elements of punk, rock n’ roll and new wave with Italian-language lyrics.Continue Reading

Miss the glory days of Epitaph and Fat Wreck Chords-style skate punk? It's safe to say that Southampton trio Everyone Lies do too, as they're doing a great job of breathing new life into the genre. They're about to release a new EP, 'Web Of Lies', and we caught up with the band for a chat ahead of their Salisbury launch gig and London show with The Drowns.Continue Reading
