Radkey are a band that have had to do things differently, battling adversity and setbacks again and again. They have spent years kicking back at everything that has come their way, and kept on pushing, kept on believing. 'Bedroom Sand' is testimony to that belief, a solid collection of songs played well, with attention to the small details.Continue Reading
On paper, Hannah Hays (14, guitar and vocals) and Lydia Stubbs (15, drums) are impossibly young to be turning out a record this assured. In practice, Trivia's debut EP ‘Home’ quickly makes their age irrelevant. Trivia already have tunes, confidence and something of their own beginning to emerge. Now perhaps they need to sharpen it, rough it up and see where the noise takes them.Continue Reading
For sure, Madball are a band on whom you can rely. At this stage, the New York hardcore veterans are highly unlikely to deviate much from the musical blueprint that they themselves have helped to forge, but few other bands have their knack for writing prime quality street-core anthems.Continue Reading
Hard times create great hardcore music, and Atlanta quintet Muelas are a fine example. This debut EP is described by guitarist Kaemon Maggard as harnessing “the rage and despair as we see our neighbors and democratic institutions suffer blow after blow to the rise of fascism."Continue Reading

Self-described power-punk trio Thronk! are Newport/Weston-Super-Mare based, and their drummer, Rich Brown, was the original Split Dogs drummer. New 5-track EP 'Kick Me While I'm Down’ certainly doesn't hang about, and it is old school skate-core personified. Thronk! are also a band with a sense of humour!Continue Reading

Including interviews from famous names who lived through it, you’ll be entertained by their exploits, surprised by some of their opinions, laughing at the funny moments, and shocked by some Continue Reading
Italian band Spleen’s debut album gushes grunge-punk and bleeds raw emotion. Dished up with a generous side of indie-punk goodness, ‘Gush’’s DNA can be traced back to early 90s alternative, emo and even new wave. Part angsty, part melancholy and part optimistic – the album has its share of complex emotional moments: exploring themes of intense relationships, social Continue Reading
Dogshite are based in the big smoke and have been peddling their own form of Anarcho-punk rock for quite some time now. They are also known to inject a little Ska into their tunes, which gives their gigs a danceable and party-like atmosphere. New album 'Violation' is out on Grow Your Own Records and is an enjoyable release for all those punk rockers, ska fans and festy Continue Reading
A 6 year wait? No problem...Gimic’s debut album comes after a couple of 7” singles and demos which I missed out on...every...single...one...shameful. ‘New Traditions’ throws down a second chance to climb aboard with its 12 songs of emotive, specially crafted, breathless punk attitude.Continue Reading
