Machete Law, London Devonshire Arms, 10th Oct 2026

By Alex Goose October 11, 2026

Tonight, I find myself back at The Dev, but fear not; though it may be a favourite haunt for London’s goths and metalheads, I’m not trying to decouple this website from the punk train. No, I’m here for an evening of crossover thrash, that wonderfully unholy union of speed metal and hardcore punk...Continue Reading

Yur Mum celebrate 10 years of Fuzz with Healthy Junkies & Wonk Unit at The Underworld 27/9/26

By Ruth Rae October 10, 2026

A decade ago, Yur Mum realised the world needed more riffs with a Brazilian backbeat. Throwing a great party to celebrate 10 years of the band — a night that was less “gig” and more “controlled chaos” — Yur Mum co-headlined with DIY legends Wonk Unit, and invited their friends and special guests, Healthy Junkies, to open the show at Camden’s Underworld on a sunny Sunday in Continue Reading

Meryl Streek, London 100 Club, 8th Oct 2026

By Alex Goose October 9, 2026

Tonight is a cause for celebration on two counts. It’s not just that self-described ‘one-man punk band’ Meryl Streek is on the eve of releasing what promises to be an absolute ripper of a new album in ‘Stories They Don’t Teach You At School’, but also that he’s managed to sell out (or at least VERY nearly sell out) the 100 Club...Continue Reading

EP review: Gorilla Tremors release ‘Gospel According To…’ and preach their rock ‘n’ roll message to the punk congregation.

By Sonny Tyler October 9, 2026

Gorilla Tremors are wild garage punk rockers who cannot be caged, and prove it with a new 6-track EP! 'Gospel According To...' is about the noble mission of preaching raw rock n’ roll in a world where autotune, click tracks and USB sticks rule the roost, which is why every track was recorded to tape. The band's self-confessed influences are the likes of Misfits, Ramones, Continue Reading

EP review: Aftrshocks – ‘Get Loud’

By Richie Viral October 9, 2026

Young Dundee trio Aftrshocks properly grabbed my attention on the Rebellion Introducing Stage this summer, and they delivered one of those sets that reminds you what the stage is actually there for. Raw, loud and unfussy, they tore through their set with what I described at the time as a blast of old-school punk power. Listening to the ‘Get Loud’ EP back in Essex proved Continue Reading

Album review: Slow Faction – ‘Return To The Windmill’

By Alex Goose October 6, 2026

Alright, in terms of ‘I was there’ punk moments, the recent South London Punk Collective all-dayer wasn’t quite up there with the Sex Pistols at the 100 Club, but it was still a brilliant day of quality punk rock - not to mention with the added bonus of a free barbecue (something that the Pistols definitely declined to provide).Continue Reading

Album review: Crapsons – ‘Sunshine On Keith’

By Richie Viral October 5, 2026

There comes a point in every punk rocker’s life when staying out until four in the morning looking for rebellion stops being as attractive as a nice early night… I’m certainly not saying that Junk Punk protagonists Crapsons have reached that point - but they are more than happy to sing about it! ‘Sunshine On Keith’ is essentially the sound of three men staring middle age Continue Reading

Album review: John Coffey – ‘Not Alone’

By Alex Goose October 5, 2026

Many bands play punk rock - only a small percentage of those bands live it. Dutch quintet John Coffey are firmly in the latter camp, having long combined their explosive brand of punk/hardcore/rock n’ roll with political and social activism. ‘Not Alone’ is the band’s fifth album, and centres around the theme of “the power of connection".Continue Reading
