Album review: M.U.T.T. – ‘Toughest Street In Town’

By Alex Goose
Here at Punktuation, we like it when bands blend punk and rock n’ roll with a sense of humour, and in that respect, this second album from Bay Area quartet M.U.T.T. is pretty much tailor-made for us! Formed from the ashes of the critically acclaimed Culture Abuse, they’ve taken the ballsy (or just crazy?) step of naming several of their tracks after classic rock and metal Continue Reading

A celebration of everyone: Healthy Junkies new release ‘Son and a Daughter’

By Ruth Rae
One of our favourite tracks from Camden crossover punks Healthy Junkies' latest album, 'Listen To The Mad', has just been released with a truly fabulous video to accompany the song. Positivity radiates brightly throughout 'Son and a Daughter', in spite of its subject matter; gender identity and the bullying that people suffer as a result of not being on the binary.Continue Reading

Album review: Diaz Brothers – ‘The World Is Yours’ 

By Alex Goose
Well, after witnessing Diaz Brothers’ storming gig at London’s Hope & Anchor back in early January, how could we not check out their new record? ‘The World Is Yours’ (yep, that’s a ‘Scarface’ reference!) is the band’s second, after 2020’s self-titled debut, but the members are all old hands at this punk rock lark, having been active in other bands since the 80s.Continue Reading

Occupying a space somewhere between hardcore and noise rock, it’s the American duo’s first release since 2013’s ‘White Glove Test’, and their fourth overall.Continue Reading
