Australia’s not all sunshine, surfing and kangaroos, y’know. Australians have their troubles just like we all do, and that’s where Byron Bay quartet Mini Skirt draw much of their inspiration from. As vocalist Jacob Boylan says of recent single ‘Squeeze Down’: “The lyrics are about the unshakeable sense I had of feeling isolated, misunderstood and defensive about my identity.”Continue Reading

Punk rock renegades Healthy Junkies unleashed their latest single ‘Gaslight’ on Halloween, a raw, melodic, and emotionally charged anthem about psychological manipulation and the fight to reclaim your identity. Combining fierce guitars, urgent vocals, and an anthemic chorus, ‘Gaslight’ channels the band’s trademark mix of punk energy and fearless honesty.Continue Reading

On 18th October 2025, Hang Youth, maybe the best-known Dutch punk band, played in the Gebroeders de Nobel venue in Leiden. Support came from Dutch rapper Zeldzame with his DJ Milky Way. Hang Youth played 45 songs in 90 minutes. Many of their songs are less than one minute long. All songs are in Dutch, and are about situations in politics and society from the band's Continue Reading

HEED CASE shine a light on their Neurodivergent experiences through punk banger ‘Mongo’. An unashamedly unvarnished, fantastically frenetic, first-rate, follow-up to last yaer's 'All The Rage' sees Newts, Si and Mr Dusty draw directly from their individual experiences, offering an honest look at the ways neurodivergence shapes everyday life in unpredictable, frustrating, Continue Reading
