Regression – Progress? (No More Blue Balls Punk)

  I personally had to do some digging to find this, because I rarely get punk submissions and when I do they’re typically shit. They probably like to hear that but I don’t mean good shit, I mean just plain shit. I’ve been on a punk blue balls bender for years now because of the […]

Punk Never Ends! (Heroin Crust in Slovakia)

  Those who enjoy soap-opera drama of people’s misery should grab a glass of wine and popcorn for the feature debut from director Juro Šlauka, Punk Never Ends! (Punk je hned!), a bleak, realistic look into drug addiction. It’s the perfect film to let kids know the glamorous life they could lead if they became an […]

TRUCHŁO STRZYGI – Pora Umierać (Polish Death Smash Punk)

  Finally some punk I can legitimately review without feeling like I’m forcing it so this site seems diverse. Leave it to the Polish underground for it to happen, as typical punk submissions are too oiboi for me. Yes, there are also oigirls, but the term doesn’t have the rhyme pattern my exquisite reviewing skills demand, […]

EXPANDER – Endless Computer (Byte Metal)

I want to see more damn computers in underground music. I don’t mean computers as instruments, we’ve had that awhile, I mean computers for aesthetics. It’s time we begin to embrace our computer lives and accept that, yes, the machines are coming and will take over, and what better way than music that speaks of this coming […]

Quick Reviews – September 2017

In case you missed it, we do special, short reviews now of stuff that’s not up to the standards I set for full reviews. Meaning, the cover art sucks. This doesn’t mean the music isn’t any good, of course, but as you know, at least 1/4 of an album’s presence is in its art, a […]

DRÅP – En Naturlig Död

Let’s get crusty, let’s get musty.  People often ridicule crusts for their absolute disregard for bodily hygiene.  It’s the most virulent smelling movement in music, something that’s always pushed itself so far away from the mainstream it’s often looked at with derision and the holding of one’s nose, even when you’re just looking at pictures […]

Infectious Garage Disease – S/T

Albums like this are incredibly hard to review.  You can’t simply listen to them, toss out the score, dish out some silly words, and call it a day.  This kind of thing requires a bit of thought, because it’s not your normal release.  Infectious Garage Disease was barely a footnote in the Sacramento, California punk […]
