DR-10 SNAP - MAQUETAS (1988-1991)



500 Copias Mayo 2013.

DR-09 FLYING LADIES - ABURRIDOS COMO TARDES DE DOMINGO EP

Tengo el placer de anunciaros un nuevo disco de Discos Regresivos, la novena sinfonía ha llegado.

Editado por Against You Records, Muerte a Tipo, Discos Subterráneos, Discos Regresivos y Tuca-Raca.

Flying Ladies nace en verano de 2005 en Logroño (La Rioja) fruto de la unión de cinco amigos a los que la oscuridad y el aburrimiento les inducen a hacer punk rock pues no saben hacer nada más.
Tras 3 trabajos en Cd (uno compartido con sus paisanos Antibióticos) por fin se lanzan a registrar unos temas en acetato.
Cansados de oír los mismos fraudes una y otra vez, Flying Ladies desafían a la tediosa realidad con cinco canciones nuevas en un lujoso single en vinilo, rebosante de punk rock acelerado y actitud a raudales.
Infórmese de qué misteriosos mecanismos hacen funcionar a una banda de rock de Europa meridional,
diviértase escuchando una recopilación de las mentiras más repetidas de los últimos tiempos o descubra los beneficios que una ocupación militar tiene sobre las conciencias de sus víctimas, entre otras muchas cosas.

Grabado en los estudios Blue Planet por Víctor Rubio, con un cuidado diseño.

500 Copias Enero 2013.


DR-08 LA STASI - LA ÚLTIMA ESPERANZA DE LA LOCURITA LP

La última esperanza de la locurita es la última esperanza del punk.
Punk 77 mezclado con el garrulismo de los 80 y con unas letras ácidas,irónicas y costumbristas a la par que divertidas.
Despúes de cuatro años la Stasi sigue demostrando que no hacen falta artificios, ni poses,ni consignas mil veces repetidas para hacer punk.
12 temazos y una locurita que demuestran que tantos años después siguen siendo los más grandes del punk patrio le joda a quien le joda. Todo el arte es por obra y gracia del gran Adso (adsoweb.es).
Edición: 500 copias, 50 de ellas con pack especial "Anti guay". Precio normal:10€. Precio "Anti guay":12€. PUNK!!!!

DR-06 TRANCE - DEMO EP

Desde Mallorca nos llega la demo en formato EP de TRANCE, estos jovenes veteranos nos deleitan con 3 canciones propias y una versión de Ultimo Resorte. Aquí podemos encontrar frescura playera, Punk Rock a raudales. No se que les dan de comer en Mallorca, pero últimamente todas las bandas que nos llegan desde allí nos sorprenden gratamente, en lo que a buen sonido y originalidad se refiere. Por la versión que tocan ya os podeis imaginar que palo llevan esta gente, Punk del de toda la vida, pero del que ya pocos se atreven (o son capaces) de facturar. Buenas lineas de bajo, guitarra con poca distorsion y una batería que nos recuerda al mismísimo Marky Ramone. Escuchando estas canciones te entran ganas de ir a la playa con la chupa de cuero puesta, a vacilarles a los guiris mientras tomas unos Daikiris.(EL TETE)
Coeditado junto a Metadona Records, Disundead y Muerte a Tipo.

500 Copias Abril 2012.

DR-05 EP NTNZ - S/T EP


En demasiadas ocasiones la vida y en este caso el punk puede ser de un injusto que te cagas. Cuantos miles y miles de grupazos nos habremos quedado sin escuchar/ver por culpa de su mala suerte, su brevedad, su indolencia, su mala ubicación geográfica o en el caso que nos ocupa de todas estas cosas a la vez. En la época clásica del punk poco importa, todo el mundo esta ávido de reeditar, comprar y pajearse con cualquier grupo que sea, yo el primero, que conste. ¿Pero que es lo que pasa con grupos de por ejemplo la década pasada?. Este fue el caso de NTNZ, hubieran pasado sin pena ni gloria salvo para 4 o 5 incondicionales, lo cual sería injusto y una putada para ellos pero sobretodo para cualquier buen aficionado al Punk que se habría quedado sin escuchar estas canciones repletas de mala leche, amateurismo y genialidad agraria Y es que amigos solo unos cuantos fuimos los que pudimos conocer en su día a NTNZ sin lugar a dudas disfrutamos de lo que fue un genuino grupo de punk, el mejor que haya salido nunca de la ciudad del acueducto y los cochinillos, tanto por lo poco que duraron y lo poco que se prodigaron en directo.

Solo dos veces les pude ver en directo (a la mayoría de grupos de esa época, al que menos les habré visto cuatro veces) y fue algo de lo más bizarro y caótico que he visto (sin tan siquiera pretenderlo, lo cual le dio más valor a mis ojos). Por ejemplo: he visto a muchos grupos hacer barrabasadas imposibles, algunas más graciosas e impactantes, otras menos, pero a día de hoy no he visto a nadie que en mitad de un concierto deje de cantar para coger el teléfono móvil y ponerse a hablar con vaya usted a saber quien, o que a los pobres los echen unos maromos del escenario tras media canción por llegar tarde de cojones. Así que ya sabéis, tecleen, llamen o acudan a su proveedor favorito y disfruten con otra de esas joyas perdidas del Punk, y después podrán invitarme a una cerveza para agradecérmelo pero esta vez no hará falta viajar hasta en siglo pasado y si pasan de este humilde texto que les de por culo un elefante cabreado.

AYDM-02 EP RUMANIA - FIESTA DEMOCRÁTICA (AGOTADO)

No deja de ser paradójico que la última esperanza blanca del punk en España no sea precisamente española, sino procedente de un tan denostado país comunista. Como ganadores del I Concurso para Colectivos de Inmigrantes Disminuidos Funcionales y Psíquicos, organizado por el consistorio madrileño recientemente, sale a la luz esta grabación realizada en un entorno mágico, una tarde veraniega en la costa levantina.

La formación la componen:

-Un cantante de un sospechoso parecido a Freddy Mercury pero con una voz similar a la de Jello Biafra si hubiese bebido cazalla desde los 12 años.

-Un guitarrista con la mente totalmente desquiciada por las drogas y el sexo.

-Un bajista que presume de ser descendiente directo de Ceauşescu y lo único que puede descender es su equipo favorito.

-Un baterista que igual toca la batería con el grupo, que la pandereta con otros compatriotas en la calle Preciados o el acordeón en solitario.


Esto que gracias a los esfuerzos de este Ayuntamiento que vela por un Madrid mejor tienes entre tus torpes manos, son 6 trallazos de punk idiota hecho por y para idiotas, como una maceta desde un quinto piso directa al dedo gordo de tu pie.

Ritmos simples y crudos, melodías “incómodas” y letras que recogen las vivencias con sus compañeros en el centro de acogida."

DR-04 EP REY MUERTO - ¡VIVA EL REY MUERTO!

Lo mejor sin ninguna duda es escucharlo, una y otra vez las canciones de estos cuatro chavales del barrio del Pilar, que me han demostrado una vez más que lo que me gusta de punk, aunque este en estado terminal, aún no ha muerto. ¿Y que es lo que me gusta del punk?, pues canciones sencillas, directas, divertidas y rabiosas al mismo tiempo, letras que parecen absurdas, pero que tienen más fondo que cualquier pseudo poesía del yonki de Extremoduro, que en este caso hablan de cosas cotidianas retocadas por el tamiz de lo absurdo y lo esperpéntico (lo Valle-Inclán jejejeje), ni más ni menos que como los mismos Ramones, ese grupo tan admirado y explotado pero a cuyos fanes se les ha olvidado que y como eran las cosas que tocaban y cantaban los melenudos neoyorkinos, porque sino no me explico ese rechazo desde tantos frentes supuestamente punks a la música que me/nos gusta.

¡¡¡¡¡NO MÁS REYES PUESTOS, VIVA REY MUERTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DR-03 LP LA STASI - LLAMANDO AL MANZANARES

Imagina un día lluvioso,es tu cumpleaños, lleno de asquerosa gente atravesando ojos con paraguas, en el que te gustaría mandar al de al lado a la mierda ,insultar y huir cual cobarde, acabando en un parque con un abuelo bohemio.

Ese día, tú cáncer de nalga no te dejará mantener tu humor guay, ni podrás disfrutar la peli porno cómo te gustaría.Pero siempre podrás rendir pleitesía a tu ídolo Javier Clemente y pensar en matar enamorados en San valentín o a algún icono de la movida madrileña.

Ese día es como el LP de la Stasi.....................

A GIANT DOG - FIGHT [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2012 Punk (USA)

Just off the presses too!! Hot wax from diggity-dogs A GIANT DOG is unleashed. A great chunk of meaty punk sizzlers, and flat out head-scratchingly overdue for these vets (get it! VETS!!!! Do-oi-oiii...). Female pipes yowlin' on top o' dissonant hooks knee deep in country-fried, blues-tinged LA punk musicality a-la THE EYES and FLESH EATERS in ye olde songwriting department is on point. I guess the inevitable comparison here is to X, but swap Billy Zoom's pretty production with the drunken scuzzy sheen enlisted to do the master's bidding! Oh, and Sabrina Ellis delivers ten-fold as front woman. Great pipes serving her rendition of a less-throaty Exene but with way more range and great, creeping, soulful yowl. What a bitch (Get it!!! A FEMALE DOG!!! Ooofffff!!!!). It all wickedly compliments the lyrical content of Cashen/Ellis' tunes/blasted punk rocking underneath. This 15-track long player SMOKES! Overloaded like the mothafuckin dog kennel! YOOoowww!!!!! LP includes download, and record includes the music!

ABOUT BLANKS, THE - S/T [P TRASH] 2011 Punk (ALE)

Bandmembers for the LP: Jasper Hood (Black Jaspers, Shakin Nasties, Moorat Fingers), Daniel Distration (Frantic Romantics), Lotze (The Shocks), Chris Blank (The Bottrops), now with new live drummer John Boy Adonis (King Kahn & The Shrines)! If this is how boredom sounds....well then let me dwell in Bore-o-Rama forever SHAKIN' my NASTIES, compulsively fidgeting with my MOORAT FINGERS in forbidden privates and blasting this record while trying not to stain Vanessa del Rio's shirt like a FRANTIC ROMANTIC. Jasper Hood and Daniel Distraction have been dauntless Knights of Kings Assi's Round Punkrock Table since the beginning of time. Together with Don Lotzo of the SHOCKS and Chris Blank of THE BOTTROPS they ride once more as THE ABOUT:BLANKS and do what they do best: Unsheate the Punkrock sword to kill the mainstream dragon with some fabulous '77 sound that oozes with sticky melodies and snotty vocals. We all grew up listening to the traditional ditties of the BUZZCOKS, THE SEX PISTOLS and COCK SPARRER and today the MODERN PETS, THE BRIEFS (and all their follow-up projects) and the ABOUT:BLANKS make sure we will always go back to blank in our heads. Let's all surrender to insanity while ''Kill your boyfriend'', ''Your pretty face is going to the jobcentre'' or ''I don't wanna be a homosapien'' fill the white space of our padded cell. The last song ''Come again'' even has some SPITS like synthie lines that are suitable for funeral play. Seriously boring shit THE ABOUT:BLANKS come up with on this record that will help you empty out your exciting life, Punk!

APACHE DROPOUT - BUBBLEGUM GRAVEYARD [TROUBLE IN MIND] 2012 POP (USA)

Hasta que esta banda de Indiana no vió su single editado en Trouble in Mind para mi eran unos perfectos desconocidos. Éste es su segundo trabajo grande, (su primer disco se lo auto editó la banda) con una portada que puede recordar a las “Emanaciones Lisergicas” de los Fuzztones en vena pop. Tras escuchar  “Archie’s Army”,  el tema que abre el disco, uno no puede dejar de pensar en este artefacto porque  con una extraña mezcla de sonidos consiguen un fórmula  en donde psicodelia, pop, garage, glam rock  y teatrismo vocal conviven a la perfección. Por momentos pueden recordar en las voces a Jeff Lescher de (Green) con esos amagos de falsete vocal o pueden ser perfectamente capaces de prender fuego al tema de 1910  Fruitgum Company “1-2-3 Red Light”, además de hacerse pasar por la mas flipada banda psicodélica tejana cuando las guitarras vuelan en ese “Quaaludes ‘68” .Además reviven el sonido de las “semilla” invocando a Sky Saxon en “Ghost Stories”, inquietan con “Lady Blood”, se fijan de soslayo en la época en RCA de mis idolatrados Kinks cuando ejecutan “Robbin, the bank”, tanto en el sonido como en la ironía del las escuetas letras, y firman pequeños pedruscos de garage psicodélico como “Katie Verlaine” que se escapan a los clichés del genero. Cierran con una joyita a medio tiempo con guiño, de nuevo, a los hermanos Davies como es “Hey Valentine”. Me temo que este este disco va a terminar de desgastar, definitivamente, la maltrecha aguja de mi tocadiscos.(Oscarkotj-2012)

ARRIVALS, THE - MARVELS OF INDUSTRY [RECESS RECORDS] 2007 Punk (USA)

Of all the great albums released this year so far, this is the one that surprised and grabbed me the most. This is the first full release I’ve heard from these guys and they remind me of many of my favourite bands, but at the same time not sounding exactly like any other band. Think powerful, no bullshit punk rock with a heavy Leatherface/Jawbreaker influence, especially vocal-wise. The melodies and harmonies are so spot-on that it really is the perfect fast-paced summer record everyone hunts for each summer.

Yes, Paddy from D4 plays bass on this record, and no, I’m pretty sure he has not contributed any vocals. The funny thing is that their singer's voice is so clear yet mumbly that it really doesn’t matter that only Paddy's bass abilities are on this one.

On first listen, I say the last two songs were the only ones that were really special ("Dangerous" and "The Joke"), but after spin number eight or so, it all seems infectious, every song stuck in my mind and never to leave.

The band doesn't necessarily stick to the exact same style all the way through the album, too -- there’s one song that reminds me of a certain Irish psychobilly band.

The Arrivals have delivered one of 2007's punk rock gems with Marvels of Industry. Marvelous.

10 EUR

ARRIVALS, THE - VOLATIL MOLOTOV [RECESS RECORDS] 2010 Punk (USA)

The Arrivals-Volatile Molotov LP with gatefold jacket

Free download with the LP as well!
CD packaged in the bossest digipak!

Modern intelligence ain’t really much to write home about. The sad thing is that it doesn’t take much to NOT be a total dumbshit in this climate. I think, more than i probably should, to myself “Why aren’t The Arrivals the biggest band in the world?!”. They write some of the greatest songs with some of the best hooks ever. The lyrics to these masterpieces are, gulp, er, actually intelligent. Not just exclusively book intelligent, and not just street smarts neither. I guess something vital and relevant for and by 30-something punks that can translate and inspire anyone at any age. And I’m not talking about “Rectospective granulator cosmopheric ramulator” shit, but stuff we can all understand like THE END’s “You may anticipate the end With great devotion You may worship and defend a source to every motion”. It gives me goosebumps because I know what Isaac Thotz is talking about and the hook is easily appetizing.

What I’m saying here is that I don’t need to be pumped up with watered down political sloganeering for 12 year old’s.Volatile Molotov includes paranoia, desperation, and even some humor. 3 great ingredients for an album.

If anyone is listening, I wanna be buried with a copy of this album! Black vinyl copy will be just fine. So it could be that we don’t know how to sell records or people are just too stupid. Or maybe both. Should we tell em to just dumb it down? It’s not like they are unaware of the fact that rock n roll, itself, is a dumb thing to be involved in. They could get career type jobs and move on. They collectively and individually have done some dumb stuff. And like The Beatles did with Ringo, they even let Ronnie sing!

ATTENTION!, THE - GETTIN' ALL [SCREAMING APPLE] 2012 RHYTHM'N'BLUES (AUT)



Two years after the release of their highly acclaimed self-titled debut-album the ATTENTION! from Vienna, Austria return with a BANG! delivering their brandnew longplayer 'Gettin' all ...' to those who are desperately waiting for more insane dance action and give the bleached out face of classic r'n'b a bright new robe.



Those guys celebrate the mod-aesthetics of the swingin sixties in perfection. Stylish from head to toe they deliver a frantic mixture of traditional blues, soul, beat and r'n'b to all the smart dancers worldwide and re-create a sound which hasn't been heard since those glory days of acts like Bo Diddley, the ANIMALS, the YARDBIRDS, THEM and the SPENCER DAVIS GROUP.

Did you ever shake your tailfeather to the sound of Rock’n-Roll!? Well, here’s your chance – THE ATTENTION! - five lads, armed with their love for Rhythm&Blues, fuse their infectious beats, catchy riffs and haunting melodies into an explosive, one-of-a-kind mix, that makes you wanna shout and shimmy! These five hipsters learned their lessons in bluesy licks, soulful shouts and pumping rhythms frighteningly well. So watch out for the heatwave that is called THE ATTENTION! rolling over your town. Make sure to put on your finest pair of dancing shoes and celebrate!

Just a handful of bands like THE JAYBIRDS, THE WHAT...FOR! and THE MOVING SOUNDS were able to capture the spirit of the distinctive r'n'b sound as precise as THE ATTENTION! YOU WILL SHOUT AND SHIMMY!!!

AUTHORITIES - PUPPY LOVE [GET HIP] 1983 PUNK (USA) REISSUE

Remastered reissue of the Get Hip-EV 1996 release in high-quality 180-gram vinyl! The Authorities explode with 14 fast, short ones on this album. Recorded in 1982 –1983 and sounding a bit like early Descendents without the juvenile or pop sensibilities, this Stockton, CA band falls into the punk rock vein as opposed to hardcore. The very popular Killed By Death series brought attention to some obscure Punk bands that otherwise would have been totally ignored. One of these bands is the Authorities, a Californian early 80's Punk combo. Their almost classic single I Hate Cops/Radiationmasturbation was featured in Killed By Death Vol. 1 and created a great interest among punk collectors. Well, now a full length release is available for everybody to enjoy. The 14 tracks included here were recorded in 1982 and 1983 in Modesto, Ca. and Stockton, Ca.

AUTISTIC YOUTHS - IDLE MINDS [TAKEN BY SURPRISE] 2010 PUNK (USA)

We've come a long way, baby... Long awaited 2nd album from hardworking PDX youngsters, following up “Landmine Beach” LP, as well as singles. Driving, melodic punk/hardcore (but NOT “melodic hardcore” if ya get the distinction) with dark, swirling undercurrents. Catchy but not at all vapid. Sounding like a cross between Portland, Southern California, and Copenhagen, you could compare this to bands like THE OBSERVERS, NO HOPE FOR THE KIDS, REAGAN YOUTH, or ADOLESCENTS.

10 EUR

AUTISTIC YOUTHS - LANDMINE BEACH [TAKEN BY SURPRISE] 2009 Punk (USA)

Hailing from Portland, Oregon these 4 youngsters are influenced heavily by classic 80's bands like the WIPERS or ADOLESCENTS but also more recent outifts like THE OBSERVERS or THE EXPLODING HEARTS. On this LP they deliver 11 songs of anthemic and heartfelt punkrock that will make you dance dance dance! The first press will be 1000 copies, 800 on black and 200 on orange vinyl. All of them will have a silkscreened cover. In cooperation with the cool cat from SABOTAGE RECORDS

BARBARAS - 2006-2008 [GONER RECORDS] 2012 GARAGE-PUNK (USA)

In the late 2000s, Memphis had The Barbaras, a handful of early-20s music heads colliding in the midtown bar scene and making a racket that captured VOM and Del Shannon in a blender. The band was great, the live shows were insane.

One thing they didn’t do? Record an album. Although they tried. Jay Reatard recorded them in fits and starts between touring, but after taking two Barbaras (Hayes and Pope) for his road band and touring constantly over the next few years, the group flamed out. The Magic Kids formed in their wake. When Hayes and Pope eventually left Reatard’s band and joined Wavves, he told them that he erased all of the Barbaras recordings.

In 2011, Goner was excited to find the sessions safe and sound right where Reatard had left them, on his digital recorder. Alicja Trout helped the band finish recording and mixing the tracks, and when paired with their own recordings (plus some heavy-duty work from Jason Ward at Chicago Mastering) it was clear their legacy held more than just a great (and now out-of-print) single. There’s a Barbaras album after all—and it’s a doozy.

[SOUTHPAW-10"] 2010 ROCK (USA)

10" - BARE WIRES patent their own brand of electrified garage punk, fusing glam glitter pop with garage punk grime, producing a sound that has been called everything from "Soft Punk" to "Leather Jacket Rock". The Oakland-based trio started in 2007 as a side project of MATTHEW MELTON with the release of a crude garage punk single entitled "Voodoo Doll," released on European label Solid Sex Love Doll. Adding his own analog recording system into the mix in search of a rawer sound, Melton continued to record under the name Bare Wires, releasing the Artificial Clouds LP on Tic Tac Totally in 2009. With solid mid-fi production and a minimalist aesthetic, Artificial Cloudsdisposed the jagged, proto-punk edges of the previous recordings and moved towards a smoother, hook-laden, but no less scrappy sound. Bare Wires new "smooth punk" aesthetic was expressed on the “Let Down” 7" (Milk n Herpes), a dirty, sleazy pair of fuzz-doused songs with guitars ripping through a crunching amplifier on a hazy cloud of smoke. With their latest album, Cheap Perfume, Melton delivers ten stadium-ready tracks of glam-infused, rock n' roll gems, still remaining true to the sincerity and authenticity that has become his songwriting trademark.

BARE WIRES - SEEKING LOVE [CASTLE FACE] 2010 ROCK (USA)

Amplifying the pared down “smooth punk” of their 2009 debut LP Artificial Clouds, BARE WIRES nods to the bubblegum chomping, power pop stompers of ‘70s glam rock with their sophomore album Seeking Love. What started as the side project of MATTHEW MELTON and ALICJA TROUT in Memphis has now solidified as a three-piece based out of Oakland, CA with Melton, drummer NATHAN PRICE and bassist FLETCHER JOHNSON. Released on BRIAN LEE HUGHES & JOHN DWYER’s (THEE OH SEES) Castle Face imprint, the ten songs on Seeking Love boast handclap heavy, stadium-ready production reminiscent of early ‘70s glam rockers Gary Glitter and Slade, while still speaking to the sincerity and authenticity that has become Melton’s songwriting trademark.

BELLEVUE - DISCOGRAPHY [STATIC AGE RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (SUIZA)

A really nice release compiling the complete works from Bellevue. Bellevue were from Switzerland and were from the same scene that spawned Kleenex/Liliput, Sperma and Neon among others (members of Liliput actually play on this) and released two obscure 7"s at the start of the 1980's, both are reproduced here alongside some unreleased songs and some great quality live tracks (that actually add to the release and are not typical rave-up esque filler!). Bellevue sang in German and English, lyrically dealing with issues such as government surveillance, the army, drugs and genetic engineering. This is definitely an interesting release and worth checking out if you have any interest in post punk, or if you are a fan of bands like Kleenex.

BLACK HUMOR - LOVE GOD - LOVE ANOTHER ONE [SUPERIOR VIADUCT] 2012 PUNK (USA) REISSUE

BLACK HUMOR was an experimental rock band from San Francisco in the early 80's. (Not to be confused with "blackhumor," alias of noise artist Frazer Hall.) They released just one, very hard to find LP on Fowl Records in 1982. Only 1,000 records were pressed, each with unique handmade covers: thick slabs of paint, collage, parrot feathers, dirt, whatever else happened to be laying around their Tenderloin flat. Many of these have since gone for high, collector prices or ended up in oblivion.

Existing in a parallel universe to other bands of the era, BLACK HUMOR's music is filled with jarring images of urban decay and desperation, bass-driven melodies, and layers of dissonant guitar and percussion. And perhaps the only known recording of a parrot that was taught to say "Fuck You."

This first time reissue uses the originally intended artwork for the album cover. Fully authorized and mastered from the original analog tapes. Includes new insert with liner notes by singer George Miller and engineer Tom Mallon.

BURNING ITCH - S/T [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2011 PUNK (USA)

Three dudes from Knoxville, TN where the GG Allin runs like the shits and the water is tainted with moonshine piss. Burning Itch are pure, unadulterated punk rock inspired as much by getting fucked up as they are by obscure, KBD-private-press vinyl. S/T is their first LP and does not disappoint...so long as you WANTED a payoff on the promise of their "machine-gun-toting" self-released 7", and the subsequent ragers on both Goodbye Boozy and Leather Bar. Yessir, the boys n girls with a hankering to get drunk to some loud, completely unpretentious punk rock ought to get their rocks off on this bad boy just fine. Recommended pairing: goes great with shooting fireworks off the Smokey Mountains at college students.

BUSY SIGNALS, THE - S/T [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2007 PUNK (USA)

The Busy Signals make it look it easy. Their self-titled 2007 debut deserves being mentioned in the same reverent breath as their one-time lablemates, the Exploding Hearts, as it has the same unabashed hero adulation and the same brash attempts at reaching those impregnable heights. Their overall sound never varies, with plentiful hooks and searing guitars that recall plenty of 1970s punk rockers and power-poppers like the Buzzcocks and likely a dozen more obscure acts. There's no hoarse screaming, political posturing, or desperate panting from lead singer Ana McGorty; just a frontwoman who sings and acts like she belongs up front. There are only so many words to relay this record's spot-on reverence, really; the relentless guitars, the harmonies, the treble, the echo, the energy-- they're all here, faithfully delivered and impeccably produced.

The Busy Signals is a well-executed stab at punk rock comfort music. But within that tried-and-true formula, the band finds ample room for variation and surprise-- the album is consistent without ever getting homogeneous, and without really reveling in how exacting the songwriting is. "Plastic Girl" is a patchwork quilt dizzy from chord changes you'd never notice for its infectiousness and it's devilishly simple chorus, while "Look the Other Way" has slick single-note guitar leads and a short cool down with bassist Jeremy Thompson (formerly of Carbonas) raising his voice before, yes, another great chorus. All the songs show that the devil is in the details: a windmilled chord up against a well-timed, economic lead; a sudden unaccompanied bass part that pivots and pushes; an boy/girl baton hand-off vocal in "Matter of Time"; just an "Oh" or "woah-oh" at the right moment. Songs like "Matter of Time" and "Patterns" are the most hero-cribbing, but stand ably on their own with clean, simple guitar lines that sound almost like Western soundtracks in how they wrangle and lead the song.

But like many a band of spurned and jilted outcasts before them, the Busy Signals' bratty attitude lifts to reveal a bruised interior: the energy of the record hits first, but more listens reveal the hopeless romanticism of tracks like "Tell Me" or "Kiss and Tell", doo-wop laments in overdrive. One side of the band shakes out their troubles to instantly-memorable songs like "Stereo", the other gives teary-eyed relationship woes a pretty stirring soundtrack in their own right. Both sides are worth checking out and keeping tabs on, and, as McGorty sings "young, young, young" over and over in "Patterns," they all sound like their unyielding enthusiasm will never dim.

CASE - AIN'T GONNA DANCE [DAMAGED GOODS ] 2011 SKA-PUNK (UK)

This is the first ever album of recordings by legendary UK band CASE, formed in Croydon in 1979 after being introduced to each other by Slimy Toad from Johnny Moped. Case played the pubs of south London and finally released their one and only 7”, the ‘Wheat From The Chaff’ EP in 1983, it reached the top of the independent charts and led to them being played heavily on BBC radio including plays by John Peel, Janice Long & Kid Jensen. They recorded a live Radio 1 ‘In Concert’ which was broadcast twice.

Originally, in 1980, CASE played primarily at a (fairly rough) pub in North Croydon, called “The Star” and built quite a following there before larger, occasionally more salubrious, venues beckoned. They famously played at The Rainbow in November 1981 - where smoke flares and buckets of maggots flew into the crowd as the band played, the Marquee Club (where they were banned for playing an encore – the only band to be banned for this since the Rolling Stones), Hammersmith Palais, 100 Club, the BBC Paris Theatre, ICA, & the Woolwich Tram Shed (and Chislehurst Caves!) amongst other less-prestigious venues.

With better management who knows where CASE may have ended up – as it is - they retain a legendary status among the legions of punk/ska fans...and graffiti historians.

Back in 1981 case had a vociferous and die-hard following who, in substantial numbers, took to daubing the walls with graffiti championing their support for the band. These expressions of support for the band are now the stuff of social commentary – see, for example, the New Cross item at transpont.blogspot.com.

Something about CASE seemed to attract fanatical fans, several claiming to have seen every gig, since the early days in Croydon, and one in particular who, whilst working in London, spent his lunchtimes visiting public toilets all over the city - unrolling the rolls of toilet paper and writing CASE on each sheet on the roll, with a biro, before rolling them up again. These were strange times.

CAT PARTY - RHAPSODY IN BLACK [SABOTAGE RECORDS] 2011 POST-PUNK (USA

Cat Party started in 2007. They are a post-punk band from Orange County, CA. Since then they're released a hanful of records and been playing shows non stop. They've played up and down the west coast states as well as the southwest. This year their send full length entitled "Rhapsody In Black" is being released. Sticking to their DIY roots the band is releasing limited versions of the cd while Sabotage records out of Germany is handling the vinyl. Release date for the new record is scheduled to be May 16, 2011. Rhapsody In Black was recorded at Cal State University, Domiguez Hills. Our friend Josh McKendry (Jisaw Thoughts 7", The Aftertaste/Cut City split 7", Heartache Over Headache EP)
was finishing up school, getting his bachelors in sound engineering.
We recorded everything there as part of his final project and later fixed up 25% of the record (bass/vocals) down in San Clemente at Jasmine Studios. This record was done entirely by Ryan and Roger, Roger on drums and Ryan handling guitar, bass, and vocals. We are very proud of this record. There's some typical Cat Party tunes on here as well as some songs that took on a new direction/approach. I hope everyone enjoys the record, we worked extremely hard on this one.

CHEAP TIME - WALLPAPER MUSIC [IN THE RED RECORDS] 2012 ROCK (USA)

Hailing from Tennessee, Cheap Time has been around in one incarnation or another since 2006. The nucleus has always been Jeffrey Novak, who writes and sings in addition to playing guitar and keyboards. The band began with members of the band Be Your Own Pet rounding out the lineup—theirs was a sound of a teen punk band with more attitude than musicianship, owing more than a little to early Redd Kross. By the time Cheap Time recorded their debut album, the personnel had changed drastically and, in addition to improved musicianship, Novak brought in influences of ’70s glam and power pop acts like Sparks and The Quick. The band followed this with more lineup shuffles and a sophomore album, Fantastic Explanations (and Similar Situations), that was darker, moodier and more complex than its predecessor. Despite the many changes, however, Cheap Time has always been a sum of its parts. A quintessential ingredient is the low-fi bombast with which they scuzz up their otherwise lightweight brand of simplified 1970s glam punk, packing an impressive amount of adolescent snottiness into two-minute blasts of sound with both precision and melody. Cheap Time are now back with their third and by far strongest record to date. Recorded in Novak’s new home studio, Wallpaper Music distills perfectly all the phases through which the band has passed to date. Retaining both the punk moves and pop-damaged glam jams, the band delivers their most realized, cohesive record yet. Songs like “More Cigarettes” and “Another Time” are Aussie-esque punkers in a Saints-like vein, while “Underneath the Fruit Flies” shows that Novak has found a happy medium between his punk tendencies and his desire to experiment. This latest installment will satisfy anyone who has been keeping track of this band’s trajectory and make them look forward to what might come next.

CHRONIC SICK - CUTEST BAND IN  HARDCORE [NO WAY RECORDS-12"] 2010 Punk (USA)

REISSUE.12".Chronic Sick might well have been the first American punk band to go the direction of full-on irony. I think they were really trying to out-punk the punks. See, they caught a lot of flak in their day for dressing like fuckups (punk), flirting with with swastikas and other ignant symbology (really punk), and writing lyrics that pissed of the burgeoning hardcore scene across the land (PUNX). Mostly it was the first tune off this LP that caused the real controversy, "There Goes the Neighborhood," about some new folks moving to town — "oh my god they're black!" But here's the thing, rather than being an actual racist anthem, these dudes were pointing out the ignorance embodied by bigotry. And in that light — impersonating people you disagree with to point out their flaws (think Colbert) — they're actually a brilliant band (The Landlords had a similar song about rape — in the liner notes they annotated it with "some people actually think like this!"). The rest of the tunes follow similar lines; rather than saying precisely what they mean (a la early Minor Threat, say) you might have to flex your head a bit to get what's going on.

Not only that, but they play some mean riffs. Today, this might be considered pop-punk, or at least going that direction. At the time they were probably just more influenced by 70's punk more than Black Flag, so it comes out really melodic and approachable — ironic, considering the title this EP claims for them. Anyway, sound quality's pretty good considering its age, and the content is just as applicable today. This is a real gem of a record.

You won't catch no sleep with this record. It's the sound blaring from your car stereo when you hit the city for a wild night out, all revved up and ready to shake some action. A record smelling of sleazy bars, too much booze and cigarettes, lipstick stains and broken hearts. Toronto City Sweethearts Curtis Dixon of VICIOUS CYCLE and Vassil of the MARVELOUS DARLINGS and ex-HEARTATTACKS keep you awake with the fast and rolling rockers "Wrong directions" and ''Hot ten''. They make you bring out the air guitar and shout along to the sticky chorus of ''Guys with guitars'', buy you a drink in the howling blues ''Just one night'', make you go hip-shaking crazy in the lascivious NEW YORK DOLLS/JOHNNY THUNDERS styled ''Trouble tonight'', ''New girl in town'', ''Little rocker'' and the perfect ''Cry all night'' and let the monkey on your back dance the cha-cha with the wilder stomper ''War in my head''. All perfectly fixed up by Mr. Ben Cook in a dry and sleaze-o-phonic 70-sound that make you LOVER! and CHEAP TIME fans out there forget the modern world around!

CLAP - HAVE YOU REACHED YET? [SING SING RECORDS] 1972 Rock (USA) REISSUE

Like most followers of rare seventies rock esoterica I first heard about HAVE YOU REACHED YET? via the pages of the now-legendary BOMP fanzine. It was the surf issue if I recall correctly, and editor Greg Shaw, in the course of a pretty positive review, mentioned Clap's ability to mix up what seemed like a healthy late-sixties punk rock attitude with the prevailing hard rock winds of the early-seventies from whence this album came. The album was a charm with the hefty Rolling Stones influences so common of the day being reshaped by a strong Shadows of Knight snarl all filtered through an early seventies heavy metal consciousness giving us...a sound and style that although part and parcel to the stoner seventies mentality had a totally unique and refreshing approach that sounded as if it could stand on its own not only in 1972 but 1966 or even 1987 for that matter. It was teenage rock & roll that continued to sound so long after the entire teen mystique of the sixties and seventies shriveled away, yet it was hard enough for even the most experienced pothead at the supermarket to roll joints to during his coffee break.



So for you youngsters here's an example of what "do it yourself" rock used to mean when you pretty much had to create your own fun, energies, and lives even from scratch and for your oldsters, now's the time to drag out the boas, the mascara and the nylons and re-live the post-Vietnam era the right way. Of course if you get arrested don't come complain' to me, but then again wouldn't that only add to the overall glam/slam effect so common during those rather peculiar times?

King Of Power Pop! is the new studio album by Paul Collins, one of the originators of the power pop sound. Paul got his start in the late seventies as the drummer for the legendary NERVES, (with Peter Case and Jack Lee,) later forming The BREAKAWAYS with Peter Case, and finally starting The BEAT, or PAUL COLLINS BEAT in 1979. King Of Power Pop! is a complete return to his roots, to power pop, the sound he helped create and popularize, a sound that has seen a resurgence in recent years, a sound that is here to stay! Produced and engineered in Detroit by Jim Diamond (Dirtbombs, The Go, White Stripes, to name just a few), King Of Power Pop! also features Eric Blakely on guitar and backing vocals, Diamond on bass, and Dave Shettler on drums (SSM, The Sights). Motor City guests include Wally Palmar of the legendary power pop hit-makers the ROMANTICS, as well as pop icon Nikki Corvette of NIKKI & The CORVETTES. The catchy cover pop art is the work of legendary artist William Stout. The album includes 11 new songs, one new recording of the Breakaways classic "Many Roads To Follows" (the demo version featuring Peter Case can be found on the Breakaways release "Walking Out On Love"), and two covers, for a total of 13 great high-energy power pop songs. "For me this is the record that connects the dots, from The Nerves to The Breakaways to The Beat to today? this is the record that puts it all together!"

COLOURED BALLS - BALL POWER [SING SING RECORDS] 1972 ROCK (AUS) REISSUE

Coloured Balls were one of the best pure rock n roll groups to emerge from the early 70s Australian scene.  Sure, The Saints and Radio Birdman stayed together longer and released a slew of fine albums during the punk era but it was the Coloured Balls who pioneered the proto punk sound earlier in the decade.  Their wildcard was Lobby Loyde, Australias premier guitar hero whose pivotal roles in beat/psych/blues rock groups The Purple Hearts, The Wild Cherries and Billy Thorpes Aztecs made him a major home-grown star down under.  Ball Power is full of raw, hard guitar rock and proto-punk. It's not only the Coloured Balls greatest album but also the finest music of Lobby Loyde's long, fabled career. (Rising Storm)

CONSUMERS, THE - ALL MY FRIENDS ARE DEAD [IN THE RED] 2012 PUNK (USA)

The Consumers were originally just three guitar players with no rhythm section—Paul Cutler, Mikey Borens and lyricist / lead singer David Wiley, all bonded by love of psychedelic Euro-prog jazz like Henry Cow, Gong and Robert Wyatt—who’d stopped listening to rock ’n’ roll after Bowie’s Spiders from Mars came out around 1972. By ’77 our guys had re-discovered rock through Britpunk pub raunch like The Sex Pistols and The Damned. Cutler and high school bud Wiley had even driven all the way to L.A. determined to hunt down a copy of The Pistols’ “Anarchy in the UK” single. In the pre-Internet days there wasn’t a record store anywhere in Arizona that had even heard of it, let alone stocked it.

All My Friends Are Dead was The Consumers’ “fuck you” to Phoenix since nearly all their gigs there ended in brawls with long-haired rockers and other redneck gnarlers pounding on the band for daring to play punk rock in public in 1977! It didn’t take long to suss. Head on out. Just before they packed for L.A. in early ’78 the band managed to get themselves on tape during a single session blow-out frenzy. All My Friends Are Dead successfully captures The Consumers as a pissed-off-yet-still-fun, no-frills, punk-rockin’ band... exactly who and what they were during their extremely short and sweet existence.

After a few months of violent and intense live shows at The Masque and other local punk dives, the band finally imploded. Some headed back to Phoenix and some stayed on in L.A. to form new bands. Cutler went on to form the goth / punk 45 Grave and still later joined the Dream Syndicate. Wiley formed the Pasadena art rock Human Hands. Sadly, today there are only two surviving members of The Consumers. Sadder still, what passes for punk rock today is easy listening when compared to All My Friends Are Dead.

CRISIS - HYMNS OF FAITH [LA VIDA ES UN MUS] 1980 PUNK (UK) REISSUE

'Hymns Of Faith' by Crisis is finally re-released after some thirty years and yet it seems like only yesterday that I bought it upon its release. For thirty years, I have championed Crisis, like some kind of leper in the musical wilderness. I still cannot believe that La Vida Es Un Mus finally heard me. Very few records deserve the tag of classic, but 'Hymns Of Faith' is a classic record! Recorded by a band that was in the throes of death, this mini-LP features seven tracks of political punk (although some would describe it as post punk, an insult of the worst kind), covering the political spectrum from the Italian Red Brigades to the Kanada Kommando of Auschwitz. The LP may have lacked the bite of the earlier singles, but 'Hymns' was innovative and original, and has never been bettered, yet alone equalled. Forget 'Killed By Death', this my friends is the real deal! After Crisis, Douglas P and Tony Wakeford formed Death In June and Luke Rendall joined Theatre Of Hate. Kneel and bow in reverence to 'Hymns Of Faith'!

CRY, THE - S/T [TAKEN BY SURPRISE] 2012 POWER-POP (USA)

THE CRY! is a music sensation emerging from the eclectic arts scene of Portland, OR. With heavy power-pop influences like THE BEACH BOYS, EXPLODING HEARTS and THE SWEET, the band has re-crafted the 2 minute pop song for a new generation. THE CRY! effortlessly merges 50's style vocal harmonies and the jangle of 60's pop hooks with the raw punkish emotion of the PDX street culture from which they come.
12 tracks on this debut LP, here's what Lord Rutledge had to say about the LP:
"The Cry! is a remarkably upbeat record considering how many of its songs are about heartbreak and unrequited love. Love may suck, but The Cry! most certainly do not. Where do you turn when a broken heart has got you down? To pop music! If this album doesn't put an immense and permanent smile on your face, there is literally no hope for you. Its energy is invigorating. Its melodies are contagious. It will make your bad days bearable and your good days even better. It's way too premature to use a term like 'classic', but from a pure pop perspective it doesn't get much more perfect than this. If you're a powerpop fan and you're not hip to The Cry!, get with it!?"

CUTE LEPERS, THE - ADVENTURE TIMES [DAMAGED GOODS] 2011 Punk (USA)

Adventure Time is the third Cute Lepers full length and they continue to navigate the same territory pioneered by bands like The Buzzcocks, The Beat, The Jam, and The Boys pioneered a generation before but with the quirks and crooked teeth you'd expect from two guys who used to be in The Briefs. In fact, in a huge nod from that generation, Duncan Reid of The Boys wrote the song "77" and gave it to the Lepers for this album. In addition to the usual Cute Lepers formula there are also a number of new subtle tweeks including the best saxophone use in a punk song since The Saints "Know Your Product" on opening track "Tribute To Charlie". The song itself is an ode to UK Subs frontman Charlie Harper by name and a number of other die-hards in spirit. Like the last two LP's this record is an undeniable ear worm. I defy you to not wake up tomorrow after hearing the LP without "Tribute To Charlie", "All Of This Attention Is Killing Me" or "Head Over Heels" in your head first thing.

“Smart Accessories”  is the second album from Seattle’s Cute Lepers who, as I’m sure you know, are a six/sometimes seven-piece band from Seattle, WA equally influenced by first wave punk, mod-revival, power pop, with the spirit of Johnny Thunders... together with occasional hints of doo-wop, early 60's rock 'n' roll and a load of female back-up vocals. Led by chief songwriter Steve E. Nix & Kicks (yes that’s Steve E. Nix & Kicks from seminal Seattle band The Briefs!). After a couple sold out singles and lengthy tours of the United States and Europe, summer 2008 their debut album "Can't Stand Modern Music"  was released on DG in Europe and Blackheart Records (yeah... the label Joan Jett started up a few decades ago!), it combined the attitude of punk rock, the style of mod, and the polished sound of pop. The album went on to win the Best Punk Album category in the 8th Annual Independent Music Awards. Now their back with their second album “Smart Accessories” follows much the same path, 13 new tracks including the recent single ‘Berlin Girls’ along with 12 other future punk-pop classics. The band will be doing a lengthy European tour throughout November and December. Lookout for more tour news and singles soon. PRESS QUOTES Their Pop sensibilities shine through in their unashamedly retro tunes in short sugary blasts. - BIG CHEESE This is exactly the type of hook-laden short, sharp shock modern music needs at the moment—a warning shot across the bows to all wannabe stadium rockers.

CYANIDE PILLS - STILL BORED [DAMAGED GOODS] 2013 Punk (UK)

The most talked about band at last year's Rebellion Festival was without a doubt Cyanide Pills. They took to the stage unsociably early on the Saturday afternoon and gave a truly amazing performance that cemented their reputation as one of the country's best, kick-ass live punk pop/new wave bands.



Their self-titled debut LP came out in 2010, and now the lads' second album Still Bored is ready to hit the shelves. It's a storming 17 track punk pop blast dealing with alienation, despair, politics and impotence. There's also a punk rock/geography/history lesson with “Johnny Thunders Lived In Leeds”. Cyanide Pills will be doing a mini tour in the UK in April with dates in Germany to follow in May. Like the previous album, Still Bored was recorded at The Billiard Room in Leeds by Wedding Present producer Carl Rosamond. ng their eponymous debut album on the 5th July 2010, with another single ‘Conquer The World’ a couple of weeks after.

The Cyanide Pills may just be the greatest band in the world…but we could be wrong… So far we’ve released three 7” singles by the Leeds Based punk band, all of which are quite frankly brilliant! First came the catchy punk pop blast of “Break It Up”, followed by future classic “Suicide Bomber” and finally ‘Conquer The World’ all of which are on 7” snotty coloured vinyl.

This all started after receiving their demo which was the best demo we’ve heard in years. Think of The Boys, Buzzcocks, The Briefs and you won’t be far out. We’ll be releasing their eponymous debut album on the 5th July 2010, with another single ‘Conquer The World’ a couple of weeks after.

rhr058: DAVILA 666 - '12" EP'

Review: davila 666 [website] are in full-on take no prisoners mode. we asked them for a couple songs for a 7" and what we got was 5 near perfect pop anthems that would never fit on a 7". of course we wanted them all so we threw them on a 12" and what youre getting is probably their best release to date. these songs are instantly addicting but unlike other puerto rican imports consumption is no crime, it's encouraged! on top of that their live show is one of the best around and their constant touring has left a path of amazed fans. its no wonder that when we booked the atlanta mess around the legendary urinals asked specifically not to be placed after davila 666 in the lineup!! who in their right mind would want to follow davila 666? ...better to follow 'em with a shot of something equally strong.

DEAD NITTELS  - EARLY SONGS 1981-1983 [RAVE UP] 2013 Punk (AUT)

Formed in 1980, in order to show them all! The Schaeffer brothers Josef (bass ) and Manfred (drums) brought Herbert "Lörkas" Langer (guitar) on board, who had recently quit the Punk combo Pöbel. With singer Hannes the first line-up was complete. After the HEINZ NITTEL assassination (city councilor of the social democratic party in Austria who was murdered by palestine group ABU NIDAL on the first of may on his way to town hall) the band name was an obvious choice - DEAD NITTELS (following our musical heroes the DEAD KENNEDYS). The space in the Wiener Gassergasse (referred to as GAGA) offered by the autonomous youth centre was used as a rehearsal room. GAGA soon would become the nucleus of [close] viennes punk. A lot of legendary DEAD NITTELS concerts took place in that time. Their first concert however was a gig as a supporting act for the female punk band A-Gen53. after several reshuffles considering the position of the singer, Christian Koczera, nicknamed Hulk, took over. With him a second guitarist in the person of Michael Neumann, joined the band. In this line-up the DEAD NITTELS recorded the so- called green Kassette AntiNewWaveLiga. CRUDE AND STRONG EURO PUNK!!!

DECIBELIOS - OI! [MUNSTER RECORDS] 1985 Punk (ESP) REISSUE

.The title says it all. One of the pillars of the Spanish Oi! music scene, originally released in 1985.
Decibelios are one of the pioneers and main reference points when talking about Oi! music in Spain. Formed in 1980 in Barcelona, their beginnings mixed late 70s punk and hard rock but they gradually introduced ska elements into their sound, always accompanied by a combative and in-your-face attitude.
The culmination of that sound and attitude took shape in the 1984 LP "Caldo de pollo" and the mini-LP "Oi!" from 1985, reissued now on vinyl for the first time. The latter presents the band and their proposal at their peak and is one of the essentials records of Oi! music recorded in Spanish. It contains fierce highlights from the band's repertoire such as 'Viento de libertad' and 'Subversión', ska gems like 'Ningún nombre de mujer' and a tremendous cover of The 4-Skins' 'Chaos'.

DENTIST - S/T [MEMOIRE NEUVE] 2009 Punk (FRA)

Dentist is a french punk from Nice, founded in the late 70's. They played fast & they played well. Dentist chose superbly their covers ranging from Otis to Radio Birdman, from The Stooges to Question Mark, essential songs exclusively... Even more, Dentist got to writing their own material inspired by the models that they were caught up in, producing an original sound that was neither ridiculous or immature. The A side of the album presents the 1978 session and on side B their 1979 session. Sliding towards a more 60's sound which was an early sign of things to come and the end of the group. Late 1980, Dentist split to leave space for another story: Les Playboys. All in all a classic punk rock tune.

DERBY DOLLS - EXTREME PROBLEM [P TRASH] 2011 Punk (ALE)

Exactly 30 years ago (in June 1981) the German NDW band NICHTS released their first LP "Made in Eile" on the independent record label Schallmauer-Records. With it they produced one of the earliest and most important NDW records, directly compared to "big names" like IDEAL and NEON BABIES... Already one year later the major label WEA signed them.

Now it's that time again where a young German band with NDW punk roots releases an awesome hit record! After two split EPs here's finally a full length album from Tübingen's 4 head Powerpop/NDW Combo. 10 Songs between NICHTS, HANS-A-PLAST and BUZZCOCKS, sounding like the No Fun and Schallmauer Records stuff from the early 1980s. The mixed German/English lyrics shuttle between life doubts, adapted subjects and people on the go, always with an irresistible and beat-twitching tendency to drag you to the dancefloor. The weighty female lead vocal of Helen totally reminds you of NICHTS singer Andrea Mothes. Now come and check it out yourself right now!

DIE SCHWARZEN SCHAFE - JETZT KOMMEN DIE JAHRE [CAMPARY RECORDS] 2010 Punk (ALE)

Die Schwarzen Schafe have been around since 1985 and have released more than 20 records, that's really impressive. They have probably influenced bands like Rasta Knast, Dritte Wahl and lot's of other german bands. "The Black Sheeps" is very energetic and melodic and there is almost some Oi! vibes in their music. Is the german punk scene underrated? I would say yes. The more I look for good band, the more I find. There is so much more than just Die Toten Hosen, a band I never have been very keen of. I wish my german was better because the lyrics are in German and they seems to be interesting. Please, translate them to english next time. I had never heard Die Schwarzen Schafe before so I don't know much about their earlier sound but I have read some other reviews of this album and it seems like many reviewers think that they just get better and better. Even if it's lot's of melodies is there a few tracks that is more aggressive like "Das ist nicht mein punk", "Schrei" and my favorite tracks "Nein nein nein".

DIGITAL LEATHER - MODERN PROBLEMS [FDH RECORDS] 2012 PUNK (USA)

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Digital Leather, the musical project of multi-instrumentalist Shawn Foree, is releasing his 5th LP Modern Problems. Written and recorded after a brief stint in Berlin following the death of his good friend, collaborator and former manager Jay Reatard, Modern Problems is an exercise in raw beauty, tender grieving and finding a way to move on. Recorded entirely on tape in his bedroom and usually in one or two takes as the Arizona native/Nebraska transplant Foree is want to do; the purity of sound in such an intimate setting permeates each song with a soulful immediacy often missing from the perfectly edited digital recordings in today’s studios. Like your favorite scratchy record, Digital Leather’s allure lies in the vintage-sounding keyboards and buzzy guitar as well as Foree’s charmingly lonesome vocals. Passionately catchy beats and synthy punk-flavored hooks give ample levity to the weighty, personal lyricism of Modern Problems. Like I said, the LP comes out February 14th 2012 on FDH Records. Fittingly, as what is a valentine if not a poignant labor of rock n’roll love such as this?

DISCHARGE - EARLY DEMOS [ANTISOCIETY RECORDS] 2011 Punk (UK)

DISCHARGE was formed in 1977 by Ivan Rivera (vocals) and Roy Wainwright (guitar). They soon recruited Terry's younger brother Tony Roberts on lead guitar, Nigel Bamford on bass and Tony Axon on drums. The band recorded their 1st demo, and saw them supporting bands such as The Ruts, The Clash and The Damned. This line-up recorded a demo in 1977. The musical style of the band was initially influenced by 1977-era punk bands such as the SEX PISTOLS, THE DAMNED and THE CLASH. This LP is limited to 1000 copies. This is where it all started for the band from Stoke, sounding more like SEX PISTOLS, but still a great history of where the band came from.

EARTHMEN AND STRANGERS - S/T [FDH RECORDS] 2009 GARAGE-PUNK (USA)

Earthmen and Strangers - self titled LP - I love when bands bridge the gap between punk and indie without losing or getting lost in any of the above genre's charm. These Arizona boys come off as a lost treasure on flying nun records whilst taking in some of its neighbor's (RADIO BIRDMAN and the SCIENTISTS) hook-driven pull. I'd almost put my imaginary house on it these boys rock the CLEAN and the VERLAINES every second day whilst blasting the WIPERS in between. Not a single duffer; every track becoming an instant new fad, sounding old in the warmest sort of way, a beautiful tonic to the worst Monday bluesI've ever had. Now I'm off to spread the word: We have found this year's best record." -MRR

ELS MASTURBADORS MONGOLICS - S/T [MUNSTER RECORDS] 2012 Punk (ESP)

Legendary unreleased recordings from 1978 by one of the first punk bands to come out of Barcelona.

They lasted just over a year, played naked on stage and caused outrage wherever they went.

A short-lived but essential band of the late 70s Barcelona scene whose recordings are at last deservedly rescued.

Els Masturbadors Mongòlics were one of the first punk bands from Barcelona, formed in 1977 by Lluis Miracle and with an ever-changing line-up which had guitarist Paco Martínez as its other constant member. Among the people involved was Manel, later guitarist of Decibelios.

In the same way as legendary bands like La Banda Trapera del Río, the usual lack of resources and general incomprehension towards Els Masturbadors brought them all kinds of problems, only made worse by their completely irreverent attitude, which caused chaos almost everywhere they played, including their participation in the festival Canet Rock of 1978.

All of which led to the break up of the band at the end of that year, just over a year after they first got together. Before that, they managed to record a number of tracks for EMI, which never saw official release and are now made available for the first time. It's the evidence of a crucial period for the later changes in Spanish music, which were only possible thanks to the transgressive and no holds barred behaviour of bands such as Els Masturbadors Mongòlics.

EPIDEMICS' take on punk rock is an explosive mix of the energy you will find in a crowded, sweaty, loud hardcore show in someone’s basement and that perfect pop song that you fell in love with the first time you heard it. “Waking up the dead” is a true story about social change, urban angst, electric shock therapy, zombies, pollution and warfare. This is passionate punk that will fill the dance floor, make your ear drums bleed and leave you wanting more more more!!!

ERGS, THE - THAT'S IT…BYE [DON GIOVANNI] 2008 Punk (USA)

Fuck the Ergs! Splitting up like that. They weren't ready to go. They left us with one classic long player, one hit and miss follow up, and a hodge podge of other bits and pieces. For such an awesome band, they were woefully inconsistent. Which is rather peculiar. This departing three tracker hints at what might have been. "Anthem for A New Armada" is a grown up pop punker. With wurlitzer (?), and typically Ergsian lyrics and Descendents-esque riffs / bass, it hits all the right spots and makes one somewhat misty eyed. It barely even comes to an end before they've started on "...and the true believers". Both of these songs would have been more than at home on their epic "Dork Rock Cork Rod" LP, which gives you some indicator as to their goodness. Wistful pop music of the very best kind. Things draw to a conclusion on Piltdown Man, who I believe is a fake caveman or something. Sadly, this song is not really that good, maybe because not the awesome vocalist sings. Oh well. The other two songs are shit hot at least.

Goodbye to the Ergs! Failures the world over will miss you very much.

FINDERS, THE - FINDERS KEEPERS [CHEAP REWARDS] 2013 POWER-POP (USA)

THE FINDERS continued the power pop path set by their previous incarnation, the Rockers. After solidifying a new line-up consisting of John “Rock” Perga, Phil Schraub, Bryan Allinsmith and John San Filippo, the band began working on a series of demos before entering the studio to record their first single featuring “It’s So Insane” and “Which Way.”

The band created a theatrical stage show which included John puking into a toilet during their song “Bad Food,” the B-Side of their second single. The A-Side was a track called “Calling Dr. Howard,” which paid homage to the Three Stooges. When Moe Howard’s daughter saw the cover of the picture sleeve which illustrated John throwing up beside a poster of the Three Stooges, she had a cease and desist letter sent out which forced the band to change the cover image. Nonetheless, the song became a popular local radio hit and they even made a music video for it that saw rotation on MTV.

The Finders later added a second guitar player named Mark Newcomb and went in the studio to record a full length album with former Move manager Tony Secunda producing. After completion, they found their label had gone belly up and things spiralled downhill from there with the band ultimately splitting up in the summer of 1983.

The tapes from their last recording session sat in the Mobius Studios vault for over 20 years before Phil and Dennis rescued them. Now for the first time ever on vinyl, Cheap Rewards Records is honored to deliver the best recordings from those session along with quality studio and demo material in one great package.

FRONT - BITTE RECHT FREUNDLICH [DIRTY FACES] 2007 PUNK (ALE)

Front started in 2003 as a cover band devoted to early german punk bands like Male, Abwärts or S.Y.P.H. Soon they wrote some songs of their own and I am glad they did. They really managed to transpose the vibe of pre-deutschpunk german punk into today’s pitch. With a mix of Mittagspause and Trend they play songs that simply kick ass as fuck.

Their lyrics are awesome and totally authentic early 80s style just that they sing about up to date topics like this fucking new patriotism in germany, cctv and media bullshit. In a way it is so ironic that they complain about retro chic in “hier liegt ein irrtum vor” while they themselves sound like were casted directly from the bar at Ratinger Hof in 1979. Each song on this thing is a total hit and if they split up before I got to see them live and do massive fingerpointing to all these killer choruses I’m gonna be fucking angry. If you are into punk before 1984 at least the slightest bit you must love this.

FU2 - PUNK ROCK [1-2-3-4 GO! RECORDS] 1977 PUNK (UK) REISSUE

Fake Punk can be some of the best punk! The late 70's had a bevy of great punk/power pop one off bands. Often secretly and not so secretly fronted by members of famous/semi-famous rock groups. The Pack, Pork Dukes, The Greedies, The Monks (UK) top amongst them but one of the longest and loudest lauded is F.U.2.. Raw, snotty, and jammed up with hooks and attitude. The group was essentially the 60's garage/freakbeat band Downliners Sect under an assumed Punk name and recorded over a case of Vodka. What came out is some of the realest fake punk you'll ever here. THE EXPLODING HEARTS would later cover their classic "Sniffin' Glue" which many incorrectly think was a Hearts original. The album has been bootlegged many times since it's release over 30 years ago and is finally being treated to a legitimate reissue sourced from the original tapes! Limited run so grab it while you can.

GENTLEMAN JESSE & HIS MEN - LEAVING ATLANTA[DOUCHEMASTER RECORDS] 2012 Power-Pop (USA)

Since Jesse’s first album came out in the summer of 2008, he’s had plenty of excuses to put the “Gentleman” part of his act to bed. In fact, the Mr. Nice Guy routine landed him in bed for a month after being mugged and beaten with a table leg while he was trying to help two strangers change a tire. When the economy shit the bed, violent crime in Atlanta hit home in a big way and really made the city a dreary place to live for a while. In addition, several tragedies strongly affected the Atlanta music scene and the DMR family. It was a bad time and Jesse took it very personally. He seemed close to throwing in the towel and retiring to a dark room with cheap beer and You Tube videos. To cope with the reality of living in a place that seemed to be going straight to hell, Jesse went down to the basement of his house and wrote twenty songs that would become Leaving Atlanta. What could have easily become a bummer record ended up being nothing short of inspiring. The record kicks off with “Eat Me Alive”, an anthem of perseverance that Jesse undoubtedly used as a demon-exercising tool. The album is bookended by another mover titled “We Got To Get Out of Here,” a song that turns out to be less about getting out of an actual location and more about getting out of a state of mind that makes you afraid of it. Stylistically, Jesse never strays from his bread and butter, which is short, hook driven, and delicately patterned rock n roll songs. We could compare him to Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello, or Paul Collins till the cows come home but at this point in his career, Gentleman Jesse sounds like Gentleman Jesse. Leaving Atlanta is Jesse hitting his personal and musical stride.

GG KING - ESOTERIC LORE [ROB'S HOUSE RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (USA)

When the Carbonas died, Atlanta wept.Mothers and children, left orphaned by the deceased, wandered the streets with tears streaming mottled faces. Strong and silent men struggled to maintain composure, and they retreated to basement workbenches, biting lips, cracking knuckles, running hands through thinning hair, sullenly wondering: "Why?" Skies darkened. A palpable feeling of devastating loss plagued the city. Nay, the world.

Thankfully, ex-frontman Greg "GG" King wasted little time in yanking up his knickers and pursuing new noise. He wrote a series of tunes not unlike those he contributed to the Carbonas – that winning mix of hyperstrummed '70s Europunk and brawny stateside r'n'r pummel intact – and amassed a crew of friends and former bandmates to help him flesh out the din. He released a handful of solid teaser singles, played a number of good shows. He reasserted himself as one of Atlanta's greatest exports.

And now, with the release of Esoteric Lore, his first full-length longplayer, the venerable GG King moves beyond his old guard, skindiving in new sinkholes.

Yes, herein we find some highly Carbonic moments – traces of Hubble Bubble, The Kids, Zero Boys, et. al. – but we also hear the King & Co. vamp on vibes harnessed only previously by goth-punk forebears: early Christian Death, 45 Grave. We sense smudged traces of minimal mania a la 100 Flowers. We catch whiffs of the emblematic hardcore of the Germs & T.S.O.L., feel the plod 'n' thud of Negative Trend. We're treated to bits of hijacked shortwave, aural static clinging 'tween songs proper, bleeding into the tunes themselves. And we hear a walloping wayward punk rec that nods knowingly toward L.A.-circa-'82, but in melding its influences, somehow sounds distinctly Atlanta, and right now.

GRUBERGER BROTHERS, THE - GREETINGS FROM READING, PA [RERUN RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (USA)

A full LP of never-before-heard Punk and Fanzine Rock 1978-1980!

From the same guys who brought you proto-punk legends O.Rex and '77 punk gawds the Afrika Korps!

Jay and Solomon Gruberger were born to play music. They formed the legendary proto-punk/living room band O.Rex in 1973, when younger brother Jay was a mere 12 years old. Future Gizmos’ lead singer Kenne Highland joined the band for sporadic jam sessions in the Gruberger's Brooklyn home. Beating most punks to the punch, O.Rex managed to release a three song maxi-single on their own Oral Records in late 1976. By that time, Kenne was a member of the Gizmos as well as a full time Marine! Within a few months, Kenne and the Grubergers would meet Kim Kane of the Slickee Boys, and it was this meeting of the minds that would form the Afrika Korps. They immediately set about recording what would become their monster, 22 song debut LP. Music To Kill By was released to great critical acclaim in late 1977, but the Grubergers would soon part ways with the rest of the Korps.

Those who stuck around would drop the Afrika and release a second album. Meanwhile, Solomon and Jay relocated from Brooklyn to Reading, PA and tried to form a new band. Having trouble finding a drummer but determined to keep things moving, in early 1978 they recorded an eight song EP under the name Spike. They took photos for the cover and even titled the EP "90 Miles Per Hour", but the record never made it to press. The Grubergers would continue to record at the same studio over the next couple years but nothing was released from those sessions. Jay would go on to work as a bass player for hire until his tragic death in 1993, and although Solomon continued to play for enjoyment, they never did play their own material for the public after moving to Reading.

It was during the production of Gulcher’s O.Rex double CD collection in 2009 that we learned of these recordings. We knew they shouldn’t remain unheard, so we collected the Spike EP and the other, unreleased studio sessions from 1978-1980 for an LP that hints at what a second Afrika Korps LP could have sounded like if  the Grubergers had stuck around. Mastered from the original tapes, and we even got Kenne Highland (O. Rex, Gizmos, Afrika Korps, etc.) to give us his reactions to these recordings! Pressed in an edition of 500 copies on black vinyl, with full color cover and insert with liner notes.

GUMBABIES - LOVE, PISS & UNDERPAYMENT [CAMPARY RECORDS] 2011 Punk ( ALE )

12" A-SIDED.„Strictly d.i.y., no sympathy fort the music industry“ prangt der Slogan auf dem Textblatt der neuen, einseitig bespielten Gumbabies 12“. Diese Einstellung ehrt die Münchener und wenn ich mir die Platte so ansehe und anhöre, kaufe ich ihnen diese Haltung auch voll und ganz ab.

Leider, leider habe ich den Eindruck, dass man mit dieser Einstellung immer mehr zu einem Schattendasein verdammt ist. Wer auf etwas leiseren Sohlen unterwegs ist und nicht jeden noch so cleveren Marketingkniff voll ausschöpft, dem wird nicht unbedingt die Aufmerksamkeit zu Teil, die man eigentlich verdient hat.

Wenn es gerecht zuginge, sollten die Gumbabies eigentlich schon Dank ihrer vorherigen Veröffentlichungen weit über die Grenzen der bayrischen Landeshauptstadt bekannt sein.

Bis auf die Nummer „In a nutshell“, die eher durchschnittlich ist, haben die 4 Songs auf „Love, piss & underpayment“ auf jeden Fall das Zeug zum Ohrwurm, wunderbar melodisch, zwischen 77er UK Punk und Glamrock. Große Klasse ist auch das Public Toys Cover „Safetyp pins on television“.

Auf 500 Stück limitiert und den Download Code gibt’s auch noch dazu.

HAPPY THOUGHTS - S/T [HOZAC RECORDS] 2011 POWER-POP (USA)

We’ll admit, this finished album landed at our headquarters late last summer, but it just seemed unfair to release it in the Fall or Winter months, since this debut LP by the Happy Thoughts is such an incredibly classic-sounding “Summer album” in all aspects of the term. How do guitar riffs like these clear the clouds away so well, while embracing a pure freshness in such a familiar sense? You’ll feel like you’ve been listening to these songs your whole life. As clean and crisp as the early 60s-infused rock’n roll backbeat holding onto these songs for dear life, each track sticks right to your ribs, and with the addition of a full band, compared to the previous solo recordings, it’s a richness you didn’t even know you deserved. Purity, harmony, and true, unabridged happiness come bleeding through this collection of songs even more impressively than on the other bands Eric LaGrange has played a pivotal part in, namely, the excellence of the Cave Weddings and Romance Novels (the latter of which, chosen by Nobunny for support on his first US tour).

It’s got the boyish charm of The Bobby Fuller Four humming along ’64 Bang-era Neil Diamond hooks, in that same magical way Nobunny channels the ghost of Buddy Holly so well. Yet, The Happy Thoughts’ raw innocence is so irresistible, so untouched by this cruel world’s evil clutches, it’s like that first kiss, that first warm breeze of Summer, that first wave of excitement you get when you got your first taste of freedom. It’s so heartwarming in certain spots, that it’s almost intimidating to a point, where the sheer optimism and elation of being alive soaks up all the blackness stuck in the darkest corners of the human heart. A true Midwest, Summer classic that will win over even the most hardened souls and the perfect remedy for every level of depression known to man.

HOLLOWS - VULTURE [TROUBLE IN MIND] 2012 GARAGE-ROCK (USA)

What a year it’s been for the four ladies & one gentleman in Chicago band Hollows - after releasing their Trouble In Mind debut (the "Bobby Blueheart" single) in late 2010, the quintet has played a score of shows (including a hi-profile gig in Millennium Park, performing to approximately 10,000 people), & honed their singular sound into a razor-sharp musical talon!

Hollows have taken the girl-group influence of their debut album and time warped 20 years, creating a sound that has more in common with Kate Bush than Ronnie Spector and more Go-Go’s than Shangri-La’s. Their sophmore effort "Vulture" finds them mining more sophisticated & nuanced sonic territories - the opening track "V is for Vulture" sets the tone for the album, with its yearning throb that swells into a (literal) symphony of bittersweet horns & strings, and "Ma Cat" is a somber ode to a lady trucker, with vocalist/organist Maria Jenkins cooing o‘er it’s soothing melody.

HUSSY, THE - WEED SEIZURE [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2012 Garage-Punk (USA)

THE HUSSY are a two-piece garage/punk/trash band hailing from the politically charged cheese rectum that is Madison, Wisconsin. Consisting of BOBBY and HEATHER, the band has spent the last three years releasing a slew of singles, tapes, and a critically recognized debut LP Cement Tomb Mind Control (released in May 2011 Slow Fizz Records). Weed Seizure is the follow-up to The Hussy?s sold out debut and is released via the Tic Tac Totally Records imprint based in Chicago (Bare Wires, OBN IIIs, Moonhearts, etc.). The new LP was recorded and mixed by Bobby Hussy and mastered by JUSTIN PERKINS (Jaill, Goodnight Loving, etc.). It features 13 of the scuzziest garage stompers this side of the Oblivians. Think Ty Segall angst meets Reatards rampage with a batch of ?60s girl group pop charm. Melodies that stick and rot, drums that pummel and guitar that throws you on an endless LSD loop. Weed Seizure is a psych punk classic for the masses. Artwork designed by legendary outsider artist BEN LYON, most known for his incredibly illustrated fliers.

HYGIENE - PUBLIC SECTOR [LA VIDA ES UN MUS] 2011 PUNK (UK)

On their debut album Public Sector, Hygiene take the listener on a post-pub stagger through the concrete walkways and underpasses of Britain's decline. Daydreaming at their offices on a weekday or at home with their record collection on a Saturday night, the members of Hygiene are dislocated in both time and space. Their LP has one DM boot in the past and the other longwing brogue firmly up the backside of the present. Public Sector hearkens back to a time of Polytechnic radicalism, Special Patrol Group repression and O Level temptresses yet evades the pitfalls of vapid historicity and pastiche. Hygiene see historical continuities and follow them to their logical conclusions, reducing their influences down to their essential constituent elements and reassembling them into now music for now people. Flouting Rockist conventions with equal doses of stark minimalism and plodding fury, these post-punks resolutely refuse the "post" prefix.

ICEAGE - NEW BRIGADE [WHAT'S YOUR RUPTURE?] 2011 Punk (DIN) REISSUE

REISSUE.Here's what we know about Iceage: They are four friends, ages 18 and 19, from Denmark. Their debut LP, New Brigade, has actually been out in their home country since January, with a much smaller, limited run coming to the United States earlier this year. These are the essentials. Over the past few months, as New Brigade has been passed back and forth online with increasing enthusiasm, there has been a remarkable amount of chatter, some of it focused on their age, some of it on their music, some of it on faraway mystique.

Not long ago, a Danish daily deemed them "teenage punks full of anger and anxiety," a line galvanized by bloody post-show photos of smiling audience members published on their blog. Questions like "Are they the saviors of punk music?" have been posed, as though punk music needs saving. They just played their first show in the U.S. this past weekend, in Brooklyn. It sold out. The New York Times and The New Yorker have weighed in. They're set to return to Roskilde this summer. As you may have already realized, there's a swirl of information and interest surrounding this band right now, at the heart of which is their music.

And it turns out that New Brigade is a refreshing and extraordinary debut. These four have located a punk-rock sweet spot: mixing the black atmosphere of goth, the wild-limbed whoosh of hardcore, and the clangor of post-punk. It's a feat made all the more impressive by one very important intangible: energy. While they still have room to grow as songwriters, the energy in every atom of New Brigade's charred, sub-25-minute rush is seductive. From the moment "White Rune" starts to quake until those last tangles of guitar conk out on closer "You're Blessed", there's little escape from this record's grip. Even the foreboding mash and march of "Intro", its wordless, 46-second pulse of a prelude, is enough to make you feel like you need to fling yourself in the direction of someone else.

That said, despite the typically direct, blunt-object nature of "punk," much of New Brigade is also impressionistic. Elias Rønnenfelt's words (sung in English rather than Danish) are largely unintelligible, leaving a lot up to the heart and imagination. Rønnenfelt finds an effective way of sharing just enough room for listeners to fill in the blanks. As if mimicking the motions of his own guitar, he scythes his way through each song, usually to anthemic heights. That you can hear in the gasp of "Collapse" and starry-eyed bounce of "Remember". Even more so in aforementioned climax "You're Blessed", a song that sounds like a more irritable cousin to the poppy, post-hardcore emo that came of age here in the 1990s.

The album's grit has nothing to do with fidelity. While Iceage employ decidedly abrasive no-wave textures, New Brigade was recorded in a proper studio. The result is a recording whose snare hits and basslines announce themselves with real fury. And though a lot of this music might seem from a distance like a dozen ideas thrown together in the space of a single song, what they've done here is deceptively precise and exists on a deeply personal, unfiltered plane. All these lurches and groans and crashes and bangs and stutters and roars come together to form one consistently rousing, emotionally immediate whole. From them to you.

IMPOSIBLES, LOS - EN ESPIRAL [SUNNY DAY RECORDS] 2011 Pop (ESP)

Grupo madrileño formado a finales de 1980, su carrera comenzó en los bares de Malasaña en tiempos de revival garagero y rockero, pero a ellos lo que les gustaba era el beat de los Beatles, el pop de los Brincos, el folk-rock de los Byrds o el rhythm and blues de los Animals, eran un grupo que avanzaba en dirección contraria, sin destino, pero convencidos de lo que hacían. Llegaron momentos de experimentación con la psicodelia , posteriormente se atrevieron a crear una “poperetta” que dejó a todo el mundo boquiabierto por la descomunal muestra de tal compañía para crear complejas y preciosistas joyas de pop que remitían a obras maestras del pop clásico de los 60 como el “Forever Changes” de Love, el “Odessey & Oracle” de Zombies o el “Sgt. Pepper’s…” de Beatles.

Con el paso de los años, Los Imposibles desenmarañaron sus melodías para acercarse a la pista de baile, entrelazando sus habituales gemas pop con temas de rhythm and blues y soul. Vientos y alma negra que dieron paso en su último disco del 2007 a aires de nueva ola y powerpop descarado.

JOHNNY MOPED - THE COMPLETE BOOTLEGS VOL I & II [2LP-DAMAGED GOODS] 2007 PUNK (UK)

Well first off lets say how totally honoured we are to be releasing a Johnny Moped Record, the bootlegs have always been one of my favourite tapes and the 7" that Chiswick released with the first album is legendary.

Hopefully there will be more from where this came from... Keep 'em Peeled!

So Johnny Moped then... well... This is 'borrowed' from the lovely Trakmarx website... www.trakmarx.com and from Dave Berks sleeve notes in the Chiswick CD 'Basically'

"Johnny Moped had all three ingredients necessary for maximum rock'n'roll: amateurism, mayhem & humour. As the proud owner of a pair of Slimey Toad's shorts I give my full endorsement to this silver digital beermat. Essential punk rock!" Billy Childish (1995)

Johnny Moped: essential punk rock. Billy Childish knows, you know.

JOHNNY THROTTLE - S/T [DIRTY WATER] 2011 PUNK (UK)

Formed by ex-Parkinsons front-man Afonso and including former members of Menace, The Shakin’ Nasties, the Jackoffs, the Chinese Lungs, the Stains and Urban Shocks, Johnny Throttle have been playing drunken, beer-soaked gigs since the tail end of 2008. They play snotty, moronic and straight-to-the-point gonzo-garage punk rock, banging out furious 20-minute (smoking ban-friendly) sets of short and catchy songs that bring to mind something like Slaughter and the Dogs meet the Electric Eels.  Longer if they like you.  This is probably London’s best punk rock band, and definitely the snottiest.

Their debut release, “Stukas Über Shoreditch”, which came out on Wrench Records, was a two-fingered salute and a spit in the eye. If you didn’t know better you’d think it was a 1976 release recorded by glue-sniffing, speed-freaked, three-chord, angst-addled teens, frying up the airspace with sub two minute machine gun aural abortions, securing themselves a defining Peel session before splitting up and fucking off for a life behind a desk working in an insurance office.

After a second 45 on the legendary Crypt Records, it’s now time for their first full length offering – which is a similarly abrasive kick to the head, a blistering, full-on, spiked slab of rampant frenzy, replete with 100mph serrating riffs, like a seriously wired Dead Boys having a party with The Stooges whilst the pub rock honk of Eddie & the Hot Rods unsuccessfully tries to calm things down.

Like the best bands of the seventies punk era, Johnny Throttle are hugely influenced by the sixties garage bands, and were regulars in the audience, and on the stage, at the old Dirty Water Club during the last decade. But the main thing to them is that the music has to be sharp as a dagger, threatening but also beautiful. The 12 tracks on this album are inspired mini-operas, played with the kind of near incompetent teenage enthusiasm which only borderline middle-aged, lowlifes, has-beens and neverweres can truly muster.

This is real rock’n’roll, the way it was meant to be – it has an urgency and honesty that no teenager today can manage to achieve, despite their skinny jeans and carefully studied attitude. Johnny Throttle have the attitude, learned from a life on the streets, hanging out in cheap dives and hanging out with cheap women. Johnny Throttle are for real.

JUMPERS/198X - PALACH MEMORIAL [RAVE UP] 2012 Punk (ITA)

The 'Punk' style became quite popular in Milan only after the Adam and the Ants concerts in 1978. After this event (15th/16th october), the local kids became conscious that build a 'punk scene' in town was finally possible. Of course, some bands were started before those nights (see Decibel, that were the official supporters of the Ants). But 'our' focus in this story is dedicated to Mittageisen, Gags, TV Vampire, Jumpers, 198X. This album contains three tracks recorded in studio of Jumpers (more punk, in the same vein of Clash, Pistols) and rare sessions of 198X, a band inspired by Wire/Siouxsie and the Banshees/Adam and the Ants that were connected with Mittageisen, Gags. TV Vampire. This album is a true 'missing link' for all the euro-punk fans!

LEGENDARY WINGS - MAKING PAPER ROSES [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2012 POWER-POP (USA)

“It happens very rarely (like a couple of times over the course of 120 releases) that we here at Dirtnap get a random CDR demo in the mail, pop it in, listen to it a couple of times, and then slap our fist down
on the counter and say ‘fuck it, we'll put that out!’ And that's just what happened in the case of Kalamzoo, MI's LEGENDARY WINGS. Unsolicited demos are largely a lousy way to round up new bands
for the label, but once in a blue moon you get one that's just THAT good. Musically, the apple that is Legendary Wings doesn't fall TOO far from the tree that is Dirtnap Records, (think caffeiniated, raw,
fast pop), but they are also unmistakably, instantly identifiable as originating from the Midwest.Potential Johns meets Gaunt? Scared Of Chaka if they were from Minneapolis? Denton with jangle?

Their mix of caffeinated instrumentation, and overly sensitive lyrics will make you melt if the mood is right.”

LENZ, THE - UNDER NEON [TIC TAC TOTALLY-12"] 2012 Punk (USA)

12"-I think we have found the perfect format format for Andy Jordan's (The Cuts, Time Flys, Andy Human) spacey glam-punk material of recent vintage. Under Neon is a beautifully concise and balanced record with a huge sounding vision. 4-songs that sprawl out nicely across a 12" dishing equal shares of Andy's awestruck John Hughes sugar, and the darkened melodramatic undercurrent of class-A punk gloss carved in marble. It leaves you with aural phantoms ringing of Roxy Music, Grauzone or any number of high-class power-pop bell-ringers. The guitar tracks of Ray Seraphin (Nobunny, Epic Sessions, The Impediments) chisel this vision into the grooves leaving a big, clean, self-produced fingerprint for maximum taste. Under Neon follows their sole S.S. 7", and we're sure those in the know will appreciate both incredible mission statements these records provide. This record was lovingly mastered by Jason Ward at Chicago Mastering Service, and it comes in a beautiful reverse-jacket with inner-sleeve and yes, includes a download code with purchase of the vinyl.

LIMIT, THE - S/T [CHEAP REWARDS] 2012 POWER POP (USA)

THE LIMIT sprang from fertile ground. In the early 1980s, New Orleans was home to a thriving punk, hardcore, new wave and metal scene. The Limit, who coined their brand of music “powerful pop,” began playing the local club scene in the spring of 1982.

The trio recorded their debut EP at the end of 1982 and released it as a 10” in May of 1983 in an edition of 500 copies. Featuring four infectiously catchy tunes, the record sold well and received promising reviews.

Although the band enjoyed modest success in Louisiana, drawing large crowds to their shows, they were unable to gain interest from major labels. The band lost momentum and ultimately broke up in January of 1984.

30 years after The Limit recorded the songs for their sole release, Cheap Rewards Records is excited to give new life to their music. The Limit LP compiles the songs from the band’s self-released EP, along with a demo of their shoulda-been hit, “Uh Oh,” plus an entire side of previously unreleased live recordings. Expertly restored from original source tapes, this record is a remarkable listen from start to finish. All copies come with a free digital download card.

LOCAL OAFS - POWER AND GLORY [P TRASH] 2010 PUNK-HC (SUE)

After the MANIKINS hung up their guitars and called it a day, Kalle and Max roamed the nocturnal streets and met their old pal Nero who was taking Chewbacca for his daily walk. Together they went over to the 24/7 juke joint for some of that delicious and eyesight-robbing Swedish moonshine liquor and went insane.

The rest is history documented on this second Vollgas album that was written in one go on the backside of an old Samantha Fox poster and recorded straight away in the drunk tank of the local police station. When the four OAFS were found in the morning, they had thrashed themselves into a rabid delirium and the shocked officers sent these 18 outbursts directly over to the P. Trash HQ. We see it as our duty to let this thrashy testimony be a warning for our youth to keep away from the evil spitits by letting you listen in indignation to such a wild blast of fast and beating songs entitled ''Dead by dawn'', ''The best thing that ever happened to me is nothing'', ''The dark ages are coming back (and I f**king like it)'' and the even more shocking ''Pissing on a drowning man'' and ''Surfin' on a big brown wave of shit'', together with a whole lotta more titles where those poor boys speak in tongues, clearly lost forever. Relentless and unforgiving. Keep away in a safe place, we know how hard it is to resist such tasty temptation.

LONG TALL SHORTY - THE SOUND OF THE GIFFER CITY [TIME FOR ACTION] 2009 MOD (UK)

LTS were formed in 1978 as one of the earliest Mod Revival band, split up in 1982 and reformed in 2000.

Now they are back with 15 new songs incl. a Re-working of their old live classic ANTI CND which has never been previously recorded by LTS. And the music is more or less the same as in the early stages - Mod Punk with powerpop and 60..s influences.

So once again they epitomized the pure Mod Revival sound with incorporate the agression of Punk and call it today Giffer!

LOVE IS ALL - LAST CHOICE [WHAT'S YOUR RUPTURE?] 2008 Pop (SUE)

Don't be fooled by the self-deprecating title of Love Is All's newest EP. Last Choice is anything but. It takes its name from its title track, the stunning, swaggering disco-ish standout that first appeared on the Swedes' sophomore full-length, A Hundred Things That Keep Me Up At Night, and though the EP's five other songs are all new B-sides, they don't sound like leftovers. In fact, the EP's main fault is that it's too short; these five new songs deserve to be paired with another five on a full-length. With each subsequent effort Love Is All refine their sound, and Last Choice suggests their best work could actually be yet to come. Though they started as spazzy noisniks who joyously shouted and pounded so loudly that it was often hard to hear the "pop" in their heavily rhythmic pop anthems, on A Hundred Things they exerted more control over their delightfully messy sonics and placed greater emphasis on their wonderfully descriptive and direct lyrics.

With their mastery of richly detailed yet simple storytelling, Love Is All offer lyrics that crackle with added resonance. Often overshadowed by the spastic din of her bandmates, singer Josephine Olausson's warbled words now have the space to be heard. So though the title track will immediately win listeners over with its glammy, steel drums-like keyboard intro and a plinky, sax-studded melodic interlude ripped from Bruce Springsteen's "Rosalita", it will earn repeated plays with its straightforward depiction of the kind of end-of-the-party loneliness that leads one to go home with their "Last Choice": "The same song is on repeat, something inappropriately upbeat/ And now people leave hand-in-hand, as if according to some mysterious plan/ I'm about to be left alone, I'm sitting on the sofa on my own."

Olausson has intermittent regard for pop rhyme schemes and seems to care even less if her chosen words fit into the music's allotted space, either hurrying over syllables or drawing them out over extra beats. But her off-kilter delivery-- with its emphasis on her hard Scandinavian "r"s, babydoll-voiced run-on sentences, and explosive caterwaul-- adds character to her distinctive, first-person narratives. Who knows if the songs on Last Choice are autobiographical, but Olausson's unselfconscious approach to her subjects-- she often presents them at their worst, most selfish, or loneliest-- makes her a rare vanity-free frontperson. "Early Warnings", a Yeah Yeah Yeahs-ish stomp, describes an accident-prone, very bad morning-after. On "Jealousy" Olausson takes the guise of a demanding girlfriend having a public fight with her boyfriend, and "Vans Vans Vans", which returns to the harder-hitting, fuzzier, more lo-fi aesthetic of Love Is All's first album, recounts unglamorous tales from the road.

If the band believes that their debut was, in fact, nine different versions of the same song (as its title jokingly claimed), then they must be proud of Last Choice's diversity. They display comfort with jangly, Clean-like pop (as on "From Your Corner") and surprising agility with heartbroken, tambourine-aided twee (as on "Loud Heart"), as well as re-pledging their allegiance to the funky, manic post-punk that they made their name on. This EP may be short-- it's less than 19 minutes-long-- but it makes a very big statement about the future of this Swedish quintet: They've only just begun to show what they can do.

LOW CULTURE - SCREENS [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2013 PUNK (USA)

Low Culture's Screens will probably be my favourite album of the year, as well as being one of the best I've heard in the last ten years. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, it should give some idea why I've rated this as five stars and anyone who disagrees can... well, I don't care because you're wrong. Now on to the business in hand:

Low Culture are from Las Cruces, NM and features members from bands such as The Marked Men and Shang-a-Lang, both of which excel at punk rock played with big fat nods to garage and pop in suitable doses along the way. As good as both those bands were/are, I really do believe that the dozen songs on Screens take things to another level. It's not a case of a band creating something new, it's more that they've taken a punk/garage sound and used it as the foundation for a whole bunch of ridiculously cracking songs.

The album kicks off with the title track and it's like a greyhound out of the traps, hurtling along at top speed and taking me along for a short, sharp ride. However, there is no time to catch a breath from start to finish really, as there is a momentum throughout the album which doesn't dip in terms of pace or quality, although the final track "Magical Thinking" does slow things down a touch as Screens reaches its conclusion.

Don't be kidded into thinking that this album is just a blur, as there are huge chunks of melody within these songs, some great lyrics and hooks aplenty all delivered with a sense of purpose, which seems to be to do something that is simple and effective yet different enough to make it stand out. The production on the album, provided by Mark Ryan (Mind Spiders/Marked Men), is massively fit for purpose and gives a cleanish feel to the record, but one which does not feel overproduced and homogenised. The other thing that hits me each and every time I listen to Screens is the use of the cymbals: for me, this is what keeps up that frenetic pace, thus allowing guitars and bass to seem as if they're being played that much faster than perhaps they are.

Each listen provides me with another favourite track on here and one day it could be "Pills," the next it's "Screens" and then it could be "I Feel Your Ghost"; each song has its own merits to have it vying for the best track on the album. Additionally, I find various tracks just leaping into my head without any notice, and to be fair it's always a welcomed arrival, guaranteed to cheer me up. 

There you have it, the top spot on my Best Of 2013 List is almost certainly decided now and if you consider yourself to have any interest in music (and I deliberately do not use the word 'punk' because I think this transcends genres) then give this a listen and see what you think (but I reiterate, if you don't like it, I don't care!).

The MALLRATS are a hook laden power-pop trio from Sacramento, California. The band formed in late 2000 with Adam Miller on bass, Ted Angel on guitar, vocals and Mickie Rat on drums. Seventeen year old boywonder, Steele Strella later replaced Mickie solidifying the bands sound.

MANIC DEPRESSIVES/0:30 SECOND FLASH - SPLIT MLP [RERUN RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (USA)

Super swell Buzz Saw/Killed By Death Punk from two new Orleans bands! Complete Recordings 1980-1981!Both bands were the brain child of Larry Holmes who ran the legendary Vinyl Solution record label and the Final Solution fanzine in New Orleans. Beginning in 1979, Vinyl Solution released singles by early punk bands Red Rockers, Shell Shock, Toxin III and other locals, along with the scene defining No Questions, No Answers compilation LP. The vinyl releases are U.S Punk classics, and his Final Solution fanzine was by far, the best documentation of the early New Orleans punk scene. Making sure to cover all angles, Larry put the Manic Depressives together. He choose pals like local loonie Mandeville Mike and members of the Models to fill the line up. The band didn't last too long, but they managed to leave behind a 7"ep and a two compilation cuts of tough, yet melodic speed punk. When the Manic Depressives ended, Larry formed the similar sounding 0:30 Second Flash with another group of friends. They recorded a four song EP and played live a few times, but they were over even faster than the Manic Depressives. The EP was not released as planned, and Larry, like many others got bored with punk when it turned hardcore.

We've collected the complete recordings of both bands on a 45rpm 12". Side one has the Manic Depressives 7”ep and compilation tracks from 1980-1981, while side two is the unreleased 0:30 Second Flash 7"ep from 1981. Pressed in a an edition of 500 copies on black vinyl, housed in a color jacket with previously unpublished photos and liner notes.

MARVELOUS DARLINGS - SINGLE LIFE [DERANGED RECORDS] 2011 POWER-POP (CAN)

In a pretty hilarious essay about his brother, Paul, author David Sedaris describes how his brother, who refers to himself as ‘The Rooster,’ copes with hard times with the help of what he calls a “Fuck-It Bucket”–a plastic pail filled with jawbreakers and bite-sized candy bars. According to the Rooster, “When shit brings you down, just say, ‘Fuck it’ and eat yourself some motherfucking candy.”

Given the more or less troubled state of the union, and the world in general, the Rooster just might be on to something, and applying his coping mechanism to recent trends in the garage rock scene could explain the number of punks currently playing power pop–a style of music that, with its quick-fix melodies and sugar-rush highs, is pretty much the candy of rock ‘n’ roll. Which makes a good power pop record one helluva good fuck-it bucket, and bands like Denton’s Bad Sports (and especially “Teenage Girls,” a song that repeat buttons were made for), Canada’s The Steve Adamyk Band, and Chicago’s Smith Westerns, to name just a few, have been saying “fuck it” with the best of ‘em.

Add to that list Marvelous Darlings, the power pop side project of Fucked Up‘s Ben Cook. The band’s debut lp, a collection of 7″ singles appropriately titled Single Life, rocks like a high school kegger in a disco-ball basement loaded with kids just lookin’ to hook up. Opening cut “I Don’t Wanna Go To The Party” announces the band’s intentions with a driving melody that plays like Big Star or Cheap Trick channeling The Ramones, and things don’t let up from there. Hell, there’s even a little Billy Squier–a los grillos all-time favorite fuck-it bucket rocker–laced through Marvelous Darlings’ unabashed power pop trip. So don’t say no to this one–dig it!

MATT K SHRUGG - GONE ASHTRAY [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2010 PUNK (USA)

You know MATT from the PIZZAS, ZODIAC KILLERS, and many more projects of note. This here is MKS's first LP and it's all the raw nugs collected from his various home recordings that Matt had been doing and then (awesomely of him) sending over to Tic Tac Totally over the last couple of years. His first vinyl release since his initial burst of three 7-inches (one on TTT, and two on Plastic Idol) in 2008. Since then TTT had been in touch for an LP that was carved up nicely from his first 35 song CDR, and then while recording that material, his ADD got the best of him and Matt wrote another 50-60 other new songs, all of which were sent over the years, pen pal style. Long story short, every demo clinched it deeper into "holy shit" territory. The songs were often far too good to leave as "demos" on a few folks dashboards. And Matt's home-recorded stuff always leaves a cool fingerprint from the demo takes anyway which works with it not against it almost always. Gone Ashtray features a solid collection of those demos all nicely mastered for vinyl. Edition of 300 copies on assorted colored vinyl with screened jackets by KEEGAN. Includes an insert with info and song notes by MKS.

MISS CHAIN & THE BROKEN HEELS - ON A BITTERSWEETRIDE [SCREAMING APPLE] 2010 POWER-POP (ITA)

You'll either love her madly or hate her badly. Or both. And she's not alone. Disaster Silva and the Barcella Bros. are Italy's hottest pop sensatiton, THE BROKEN HEELS!!

Together they deliver their unique mixture of rawdy pop, sixties beat and eighties dreams. It ain't no party, it ain't no disco, it ain't no fooling around, just charming songs appealing to your heart, soul, feet and skin!

They're the last craftsmen of the perfect pop song. If you don't like them don't worry, you're probably dead but nobody told you yet.

Lovely Miss Chain (or shall we call her Disaster Silva, ... or maybe just Astrid?!) explains the magic of their amazing debut abum as follows, ...

"On a bittersweet ride, it's like climbing sunshine pop mountains and falling down into groovy bubblegum worlds ! Walking on garage punk streets, stomping our feet while dancing to our fav hits !

The KINKS and the BYRDS warm our heart, Phil Seymour and Dwight Twilley gave us the start, SHIVVERS and FLAMIN' GROOVIES made our teenage years, BIG STAR and RASPEBERRIES gave us smiling tears. We grew up with the Nuggets and 60ies Girl group sound, screaming "hold tight" and "I get around" ! Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, oh BADFINGERS's Baby Blue, all we wanna say : BAY CITY ROLLERS we love you !!!!!!!

We sing about holding hands and love for eachother, summertime fun and mellow ballads, underneath a nostalgic vein you will feel but each track will blow your mind for real !! up and down, inside out, come on dance, twist and shout!"

After having released three 45s, the band now comes up with 12 more impressive examples of what real power-pop is all about. This platter is a real little masterpiece. All tunes deliver the perfect blend of classic late 70's power-pop, 60's all-girl group sounds and the minimalistic charme of early punk-rock. We said it before and we will say it again, this band will be HUGE!!! If you really dig the sound of crunchy guitars, be a sucker for songs with the highest possible recognition value and go bananas for a full dose of harmonies, you need to have "On a bittersweet ride"

MISS CHAIN & THE BROKEN HEELS - THE DAWN [BACHELOR RECORDS] 2013 POWER POP (ITA)

After four singles (“Common Shell”, “Boys and Girls”, “Lie” and the 2012 single on Bachelor, called “Rainbow”) that sold out in a flash, an album for one of the most prestigious power-pop labels already in its second pressing, raving reviews on both sides of the Atlantic, two US tours and lots of dates all across Europe, Miss Chain & The Broken Heels are once again among us.



We had left them with “A Bittersweet Ride”, the LP which was released two years ago on Screaming Apple / Burger / Sonic Jett Records. Two years of relentless touring and personal change. Miss Chain was then singing about being 25 years old and the bittersweet thoughts and preoccupations that come with such an age. Now, two years later, the girl has become a woman: this journey has finally seen the light of dawn, it has changed its nature, turned into a rite of passage. Her thoughts have become a stream of introspection that is equal parts light and darkness, reason and spirituality, demons and hopes. Following this transformation, the music itself has changed, pushing the melodies beyond the usual rock ’n’roll/garage blueprint, such as we were used to.

MIND SPIDERS - MELTDOWN [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2012 GARAGE-ROCK (USA)

The Second album from MARK RYAN’s (MARKED MEN, HIGH TENSION WIRES) MIND SPIDERS, and it's a Meltdown, alright. This is a very different beast from the s/t Mind Spiders LP released just 13 months ago. The most obvious difference is that while the s/t LP was recorded piecemeal, with Mark more-or-less playing all the instruments, Meltdown is the first Mind Spiders recordings to feature the full live band. And what a band it is: members of THE BAD SPORTS, High Tension Wires, Marked Men, UPTOWN BUMS, etc etc. The fact that there are two drummers (MIKE from the Marked Men and GREG from The High Tension Wires both play drums at the same time) gives alot of these songs a rhythmic complexity that sets the songs apart from a lot of other "garagey" type bands. Loosely organized like the first LP, with the more straightforward, rocking stuff on side A and the weird curveball stuff on side B, Meltdown, while remarkably cohesive, blends a lot of different elements: Great sounding guitar tones. Happy, warm organ. Mean, buzzing synth. 60's pop sensibilities. Snotty garage rockers. Dark, brooding postpunk. Weirdo sci-fi soundtrack stuff. Nods to Krautrock.

MOBCHARGE - APOCALYPTIC HORROR [KREMON RECORDS] 2010 D-BEAT (ESP)

Fuck yeah! There’s nothing new or innovative here, and there really doestn’t fucking need to be. This is 100 % pure D-beat in all of its slightly sloppy, raw glory with a singer who sounds remarkably like the late Kawakami (DISCLOSE, of course). He recording may actually be a little too clean for my taste, but if your crank the bass and listen to is as loud as possible, it sounds good. As far as the style goes, MOBCHARGE is more in line with second-wave bands like DISGUST and DISASTER both in their lack solos and the relative shortness of the songs. Nice Lyrical nods to CONFLICT and SORE THROAT as well, My only complaint is the way obvious Photoshop work that’s all over layout. What’s wrong with good ol’ cut ‘n’ paste (AU)....

MOON UNIT - IN SIX MOVES [CLIFFORD RECORDS-10"] 2008 POP (ESP)

De Moon Unit podríamos decir que hacen power pop, pero del reflexivo, como demuestran en la intensa "Insincere", o la directa pero estudiada, "I’m alive", sin renunciar por ello a las melodías básicas pero adictivas y a la frescura y color que mantienen en temas como "Shine". Ellos, dicen ser el resultado de un mix entre una buena dosis de rock, pop y punk bien triturado y, si por todo esto entendemos también a Paul Weller, puede que no se equivoquen, ya que en él parecen tener a su principal gurú y referencia. Sin duda, un buen guía espiritual cuyas lecciones han sabido interiorizar y llevar a su propio terreno.

MOTHER'S CHILDREN - ARE YOU TOUGH ENOUGH? [TAKEN BY SURPRISE-12"] 2011 POWER-POP (CAN)

Canada seems to be the new fertile ground for smashing powerpop. MOTHER'S CHILDREN hail from Ottawa, the same place as great bands like SEDATIVES, STEVE ADAMYK BAND (who they share a member with), WHITE WIRES and many others are from and keep making me go GAGA. This 6 track 12" is the follow up to their well received THAT'S WHO! LP on DERANGED. Dirk Klotzbach from OX put it this way (I fully agree!): I really hope that you all followed my call up from OX # 92 in the meanwhile and have bought yourself a copy of MOTHER`S CHILDREN "That´s Who" Debut LP. So just to make it clear once again, there is no excuse ! The same as great as mentioned LP is this follow-up 12" from the Canadians. Power Pop Glam´n´Roll driven to perfection that should be spinning on your record player multiple times a day and that still is on a par with it´s musical archetypes. Take your personal hits from the first three Powerpearls Compilations add it up with the two episodes of Killed By Glam, listen to "Milk & Alcohol" and "She´s A Windup" by DR. FEELGOOD once again, don´t forget your BOYS, STIFFS and FAST CARS records and imagine you would be warped right back to the Seventies where you would be seeing all those bands live on stage, because this is the moment when you realize that you are dancing and beerspitting right in front of the stage of a MOTHER`S CHILDREN show. Maybe you´ll even meet Noddy Holder or Gary Holton there on your timewarp.

the debut lp by California's mighty MUNDO MUERTO! Retaining the melody of the

up on the first track to the last note this smokes all the way through!!!! The Spanish vocals only add to the amazingness of this lp and all the "whoa" parts

What you get is basic, four-the-floor hardcore with catchy as fuck, whoa-soaked vocals over the top of it. This thing is jam-packed to the hilt with hooks... fans of Vaaska and Peligro Social will dig HARD. Catch the Histeria!!!

NAMES, THE - YOUNG ROMANTICS [RAVE UP] 2012 Punk (USA)

Punk Rock hit Phoenix, Arizona in a slow and violent way. The dirt brain mentality of "rock" fans in the area showed resistance to any new musical group that didn't conform to the model. Finally, after a Ramones show in town, four young guys decided starting to play punk rock: The Names were born! The band and headed into the studio. Songs like 'Young Romantics', 'Love/Hate', and the anthem 'I Don't Like Radio' gathered the band airplay on the AM radio station K-15. Bands such as the Rubber City Rebels, the Gears and many others came through the area and The Names opened for most of them. The last show of the band was on New Years 1980. The next day, the band became Red Squares, that recorded the amazing 7” 'Modern Roll/Time Change' (see American Lost Punk Rock Nuggets # 25). All studio tracks + 4 live cuts!

NEGATIVES, THE - NO TRUTH, NO JUSTICE [TRASH 2001] 2005 PUNK (SUECIA)

As the name suggests the band are straight out of Sweden not from Bradford (or should that be ‘Not From London’?) 11 tracks of full on Rancid before they got shit style streetpunk with a poem to kick things off. Othen than the poem this album kicks in like a ecstasy rush and will have you jumping around all the way to the last track, which is a tribute to the late John Peel. All the songs are in English and the cd booklet has all the lyrics so late night sing a longs are possible. I particularly liked the track ‘Greatest Punk Rock Rip Off’ a song about bands who get back together with one original member for the money, a subject I’m sure a lot of you reading this know about. One of the best albums I’ve heard in a long time and a band I will be looking out for in the future.

NOH MERCY - S/T [SUPERIOR VIADUCT] 2012 PUNK (USA)

Formed in San Francisco in 1977, NOH MERCY was comprised of only two women: Esmerelda and Tony Hotel. The band's motto was "No Boys On Guitars" as a reaction against male-dominated rock 'n' roll. They didn't need boys or guitars. They harnessed the angularity of DEVO, the punk/poet attitude of PATTI SMITH, and the art spectacle of ROXY MUSIC, all ground down to a minimalist core of voice and drums. Their only two previously released songs – "No Caucasian Guilt" and "Revolutionary Spy" – have long been considered essential recordings within Post-Punk/No Wave collector circles and by fans of other late 70's "girl" groups, such as X-RAY SPEX, THE SLITS, and THE RAINCOATS.

This album contains almost entirely unreleased material, unheard for over thirty years. Recorded by Fluxus artist and electronics genius Tommy Tadlock (TUXEDOMOON) during their peak in 1979. As prescient as bands come, NOH MERCY preceded the defiant queer rebellion of Riot Grrrl and the frenetic art minimalism of the early 21st century by decades.

NODZZZ - S/T [WHAT'S YOUR RUPTURE?] 2008 Pop (USA)

Nodzzz are Sean Paul on guitar, Anthony Atlas on bass, and Eric Butterworth on drums, with Pete Hilton as forever auxiliary drummer, now stationed in Bulgaria in the service of the Peace Corps. They're sweet dudes with an even sweeter sound, first honed on a killer single called "(I Don't Wanna) Smoke Marijuana" b/w "We Are the Only Animals," released on Eric's Make a Mess imprint. Barely three minutes long, each side tore the face off of the last days of 2007, revealing a candy skeleton that had the Modern Lovers' teeth marks in it.

The group's self-titled debut is a grower, with ten new songs in a markedly more pop direction. You can hear the simple American pleasures of baseball, road trips and late summer within, plain as day within this record. More specifically, you can hear three guys examining where punk became something more, between notions of power pop and advanced songwriting on the Embarrassment/Big Dipper/ Pointed Sticks axis, but with the economy of the Minutemen or Beat Happening. They're in and out before you know it, having firmly planted the seeds of catchy melodies between your ears.

NOLLA NOLLA NOLLA - S/T [SVART RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (FIN) REISSUE

Perhaps best known as the first real band of Jore Vastelin, of Musta Paraati fame, Nolla Nolla Nolla (also known as 000) produced only an EP and an album during their two short bursts of activity. Having broken up in 1982 after the EP "Oodeja simasuille", they reformed briefly in 1984 to record this album. Their original blend of classic punk rock and Killing Joke -style post punk was not a popular concoction at that time, and it is only in later years that their legacy has grown into a cult. The original pressing of this album has been known to change hands for several hundred euros.

The Svart reissue features a sturdy gatefold jacket and a 24-page A4 booklet with bilingual liner notes from the band's guitar player Make and many previously unpublished photos from the era. The audio has been mastered for vinyl from the original tapes.

NORMALS, THE - SO BAD SO SAD [LAST LAUGH RECORDS] 2012 PUNK (USA)

Extraordinarily acceptable for late-‘70s, recently-unearthed power-pop and will please those who most assuredly purchased it upon release earlier this year. This is a second LP of studio tracks from yet another no-longer-long-lost Hyped-to-Death/Teenline-style concern that hailed from New Orleans. The retro-stroke campaign for The Normals began with a reissued 7” last year, and ears that I trust claim it had a bit of Dictators pop-metal mixed in with its otherwise expected sound, but this LP is nicely-accomplished power-pop with energy/punk-rock edge, all of which makes for the perfect sonic ground for the addition of great big, unforgettable hooks, yet that never happens on So Bad, So Sad. The knuckle-draggers who operate as brainwashed disciples of this sort of stuff, as well as the new bands that ape it and add nothing of worth, will talk really loudly, in social situations or at record stores, of their unmovable opinion that The Normals are super-catchy and badass in that way or this way, but all I ask is for folks to be honest about what’s entering their ears and ask themselves if this needs to be added to the 1,945,923 examples of identical affairs that constitutes their record collections.

NUEVO CATECISMO CATÓLICO - LOS AÑOS EN GOO RECORDS [SOLO PARA PUNKS-2xLP] 2012 PUNK (ESP)

Espero sinceramente que te guste esta nueva edición del sello. Lleva mucho trabajo detrás y una fortuna invertida también. Ambos discos han sido cuidadosamente remasterizados para la ocasión y prensados como es debido. La carpeta doble viene con las fundas interiores impresas con la portada de cada disco, las letras de las canciones por primera vez y mogollón de fotos no publicadas hasta ahora.

A finales de los ochenta, el furioso Punk vasco (de estallido tardío respecto a Madrid o Barcelona, pero de impacto y repercusión mucho mayores), una vez pasada la reconversión RRV, había terminado en manos de grupos mayormente mediocres, cortados por un patrón de indigencia estética, autocomplacencia lírica y musical, desastrosos conciertos etílicos y, en definitiva, cutrez. En medio de este panorama, en 1987 irrumpe La Perrera.

La crítica especializada los amó desde el principio, el público tardó más en aceptarlos (demasiado rockeros para la punkarrada, definitivamente punks para los jevis, y un ruido infernal para el resto), pero poco a poco fueron congregando su propia parroquia.

La herencia de La Perrera era más americana que británica, y además de adaptar referencias punks que en aquel momento nadie usaba y pocos conocían (intenta listar cuántos grupos versioneaban el Sonic Reducer de los Dead Boys antes de que lo hiciesen ellos, y cuántos la han tocado después), también mostraban querencia por el Hard-Rock clásico, el Glam, y el Pre-Punk (Thin Lizzy, Rory Galagher, Alice Cooper, Dictators, Stooges). Eran, ante todo, fans de la música, “presumían” de una cultura musical extensísima, y reivindicaban grupos menores con exquisitez de coleccionista. Su estética, de carácter vintage y mitómana, no era forzada, pero sí consciente. Sus letras, muy personales, odas alienadas de individualismo y autoafirmación, suponían una excitante novedad entre el analfabetismo en inglés y los sobados clichés carentes ya de convicción. Y, por supuesto, su demoledora puesta en escena, sin apenas pausas entre temas, marcaba un antes y un después en todo aquel que asistiese a uno de sus conciertos. Todos estos aspectos se fueron acentuando, expandiendo y/o refinando cuando, una vez desaparecida La Perrera, los hermanos Arturo y Gonzalo Ibáñez fundaron junto a Julen Atorrasagasti y Jorge Reboredo (ambos ex-Barrakos) y Arturo Zumalabe (ex-Hondakin), Nuevo Catecismo Católico. Y son, desde entonces, elementos inherentes en todos los grupos Punk/Rock’n’Roll underground.

Sería exagerado atribuir únicamente a NCC la paternidad de una escena que consume sin prejuicios distintos estilos de música Punk, Hard-Rock o Heavy Metal, y que se interesa por investigar la historia del Rock’n’Roll. Grupos australianos, americanos, y más tarde escandinavos, ahondaron en ese enfoque, y gozaron, lógicamente, de mayor predicamento. Pero NCC estaban y hacían eso antes, y fueron “Nuevo Catecismo Católico” y “En Llamas”, y sobre todo, los directos de una banda que en veinte años de trayectoria no ha dado UN SÓLO CONCIERTO MALO, los principales responsables de la existencia de demasiados grupos como para enumerarlos, y de la transformación de toda la escena rockera underground española.

El implacable paso del tiempo (esa gran obsesión del principal letrista del grupo, Gonzalo), no se ha atrevido a tocar los dos primeros elepés de Nuevo Catecismo Católico, colocándolos en el lugar que merecen: el de los Clásicos. Son dos excelentes, excepcionales, extraordinarios, discos de Punk-Rock. En cualquier contexto (vasco, español, mundial). Quienes perdimos el juicio cuando fueron publicados, seguimos sintiendo esa detonación en el estómago que se expande en carne de gallina y pelos de punta, al escucharlos hoy. Habrá otras maneras de quitarse veinte años de encima (al menos durante lo que dura una canción), pero no serán tan divertidas.

-Daniel F. Marco.

OBN III'S , THE - THE ONE AND ONLY [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2011 Rock (USA)

New entry for the top-shelf, mid-tempo “City Slang”-vibed bangers contains zero frills and marries it down to a Stooges swagger. This debut long-player is as tight as it is unhinged. The double-deep-fried guitars and solo riffage render tunes of a hooky, hard rock sheen. Effectively transplanted from the S/T EP without a doubt. But OBNs use the stretching room an LP affords to also flirt with a Sabbath-like weight in their sound, add even further snotty attacks, and lay out ridiculously deliberate, locked-in grooves to serve on (Graham Low and Matt Hammer function as an incredible rhythm section). Of course the “Texas-tinged IVY GREEN” tag remains 100% applicable, but I’d also go for “VAMPS-meets-STOOGES” comparison here even more (101% I guess??). Matter of fact, the fucking Vamps are another Texas five-piece with a blonde guitarist too. Wha…tha…fuuuuck? 20-year time warp? Reincarnation?! All the killer riffs on this album just set it off for “front, man” Orville Neeley, whose howling episodes take over the tracks like a “front, man” should. Highlights on this thing include E-VER-Y-THING. No jokes, no riddles, no ham sandwich. I don’t care if you ARE Barrack Obama. Recorded by Orville Bateman Neeley III in hot-as-fuck Austin, Texas. As if enough sweat wasn’t baked into these tapes already. LP includes a free download and is pressed on heavyweight wax housed in a nice inner/outer sleeve deal. Get on board with this shit, and grab the singles on TTT and Super Secret Records if you ain’t dun diddit yet.

OUT ON A LIMB - DROWNED [TAKEN BY SURPRISE] 2011 PUNK (ALE)

Out On A Limb are from Germany and play slightly-slower-than-mid-tempo post punk. The band claim Joy Division as an influence, which I hear a little bit, but the danceable drum parts remind me of the Cure for some reason. The feel of the record itself leans more towards bands like Heroin/Unwound/other early ‘90s Gravity Records offerings, but the post punk influences creep up and become a lot more apparent at times, which makes the listening experience more interesting. The vocals are clean and sort of just hint at melody, and fit in well with the music. I kept feeling that the vocals sounded a lot like another band I couldn’t place until I decided that the accent just reminded me a lot of the Peacocks. The production on the whole record is very subdued, which fits the sound, and the mixing is excellent.

PAPERHEAD, THE - S/T [TROUBLE IN MIND] 2011 POP (FRA)

Upon your first listen to this record you may thing that you’ve stumbled onto some lost nugget from 1968. THE PAPERHEAD take their name from a lyric in July’s golden-age psychedelic single “My Clown” and while the record may have a vintage sound, it’s mind boggling to learn that it was written and recorded in the summer of 2010 by three 18 year old kids from Nashville. Neo-psych fans may hear a more ambitious White Fence or a poppier Spacemen 3, while others may recall Pretty Things, July or a post-LSD Beatles. Twelve tracks that combine layers of orchestrated pop, Eastern influences and plenty of groovy intrumental work. Produced by CHEAP TIME’s JEFFREY NOVAK.

PEOPLE'S TEMPLE - MORE FOR THE MASSES [HORIZONTAL ACTION] 2012 Rock (USA)

The Peoples Temple have righteously returned with a sliver of their next wave, and with the anxiously awaited follow-up to their debut LP ‘Sons of Stone,’ we have a band on our hands here with their heads clearly going in the right direction. The Lansing, Michigan snarlers have constructed their sophomore LP, ‘More For The Masses,’ with a taste of what they’ve been working on since their last outing, and it’s got us seething with excitement to share it with the world. The new songs show a bold advance in the songwriting structure, with intricate arrangements, incredibly diverse new directions not far off from the pioneering material spurned forth from the iconic 60s band Love. We’re talking flashes of primitive baroque pop and British ‘Fading Yellow’-style songs, albeit not absent of their illustrious fuzz guitar flourishes we’ve all come to love and expect, laid on thick. ‘More For The Masses’ is a perfect example of what Peoples Temple do best, a direct shot to the dome of perfect rock’n roll snarl, classic pop, head-expanding fuzz, those two-part vocal harmonies, and an ever-compelling riff that takes you over the edge and back within minutes. Peoples Temple have built on their unusual knack for crafting original pop music sounding like it’s been stripped out of the ashes of time, only to emerge with some of the most creatively exciting sounds coming out of the Midwest in years.

A band built on the rare structure of TWO sets of songwriting brothers is groundbreaking enough in it’s own right (can you think of any other band made up of two sets of brothers that all compose?), but their ability to crank out awe-inspiring classic songs at such a rapid clip is making our heads spin over here, and we can’t wait to unleash ‘More For The Masses’ on an unsuspecting public, destined to break the mold apart even further, and expose the raw guts of this unstoppable rollin’ machine. -Victimoftime.com

POBLACIÓN SUPERFLUA - S/T [10"-MALDITOS VINILOS] 2012 HC (ESP)

“Evidentemente, toda vida es un proceso de descomposición” F. Scott FitzGerald

Población superflua funcionó de forma más o menos estable entre finales de 1994 y el 2000. En gran medida su existencia estuvo ligada a la del Centro Social Anarquista de Xixón, donde además de ensayar, grabar y tocar en incontables ocasiones, participaban en la asamblea, la organización de eventos, la distribución anticomercial, y en diversos colectivos y proyectos anticapitalistas…

El local estaba situado en los bajos de la casa sindical, espacio reclamado como patrimonio sindical histórico por la CNT, que finalmente negoció con el estado la propiedad privada y oficial del mismo. Esta potestad estatal fue aprovechada por la Federación Local para expulsar de malas maneras a las personas y colectivos que autogestionaban el espacio de forma autónoma y que pese a sus esfuerzos no conseguían captar ni someter a su disciplina. Hoy ese espacio continua triste e inutilizado, un panteón del placer o un monumento a la alienación ideológica, entendida la ideología como falsa conciencia de la realidad…

Volviendo al grupo, que se nos va la pinza, después de varios intentos frustrados de okupación, comienzan un periplo por locales de ensayo de alquiler y conciertos en bares, ya sin el encanto de la autogestión anticomercial…

Finalmente la supervivencia, la vida reducida a los imperativos económicos, fuerza a parte de los integrantes de la banda a desplazarse geográficamente y ya solo se volverían a reunir de forma esporádica…

De esos cinco años salieron un montón de conciertos benéficos y anticomerciales, la mayoría en Xixón, pero otros en Uvieu, Llangreu, Coruña, Torrelavega, Lasarte, Valladolid y Madrid. También varias “cutredemos” grabadas por el propio grupo con cachivaches prestados, de las cuales solo se llegó a mover una (primero en cintas “DIY-Style” y luego editada más profesionalmente por un contubernio de sellos pequeños)

Los temas de este disco son los únicos grabados en estudio, en concreto en ACME (Avilés) en mayo de 1999. En su día se iban a utilizar para un EP compartido pero el proyecto no llegó a cuajar. Se editan más de diez años después, más que nada por el propio interés de los miembros de la banda en ver su mierda plastificada en un vinilo, único formato que les produce cierta pasión y alimenta su fetichismo mórbido. Además, el espeluznante contexto sociopolítico en el que vomitaron su odio y rabia, en forma de poemas ruidosos, sigue vigente…

Para el diseño de la carpeta, tras un duro trabajo buscando entre viejos papeles amarillentos y llenos de ácaros, se consiguió recuperar una copia del collage que iba a usarse, en su día, para el disco compartido y algunos carteles y entradas de conciertos…

Respetando la filosofía de la banda, el disco se distribuirá a precio de coste y se intentará que se venda al precio más bajo posible…

Por último, dar las gracias a todas las personas, colectivos y grupos que colaboraron desinteresadamente con la banda, en especial a Escuela De Odio y Odio Visceral por seguir en activo y a todas las personas que han echado una mano para sacar esto adelante…

Este disco está dedicado a Fernan y Piñera, entre tantos otros, caídos en la batalla diaria por sobrevivir…

POL POT - WHOLE MYSTERY [GO MONGO RECORDS] 2011 Punk (ESP)

Los Pol Pot son de Zaragoza y son, para mi gusto, una de las mejores bandas actuales del panorama patrio. Cuando tocamos X-Prays con ellos en Zaragoza, simplemente flipé. Básicamente su sonido se basa casi todo en el rollo Punk siniestro a lo Crisis y a lo Warsaw/Joy Division (a veces demasiado calcado), pero también le meten otros matices. Matices a veces imperceptibles, muy diluidos, y en ocasiones más presentes. Por un lado, algunos temas tienen una línea de melodía más bailable, que puede emparentarles a grupos como The Cure, pero renunciando a la parte bonita y sin abandonar nunca la seriedad que impone la voz grave que recita sin compasión en medio del polo norte. Y, por otro lado, hay partes que te dejan un leve sabor a vanguardia británica 79-82 (en algunos temas más que en otros). No se parecen en concreto a ninguna de aquellas bandas, ni llegan a sus niveles deconstructivos, pero podrían haber teloneado a Pop Group, Gang of Four o PIL.

Whole mystery es un disco muy sólido, con muy buen sonido, que se tiene de pie solo. Son solo 9 temas, pero son todos muy largos. Así que, para alguien que no esté muy puesto en este estilo, escucharlo entero puede ser como inyectarse muy lentamente plomo congelado. Pero para los que adoren la marcialidad y la seriedad de Joy Division, el disco se les hará incluso corto y, por supuesto, les encantará. A mi me parece uno de los discos del momento, con una calidad excepcional que no deberías dejar escapar.(http://soloespunk.blogspot.com)

POP RIVETS, THE - GREATEST HITS [DAMAGED GOODS] 2000 Punk (UK)

The Pop Rivets (AKA TV 21) played their first show in 1977 at Detling Village Hall, Kent. Famous for their renditions of "Stingray" and "Hippy Hippy Shake", The Pop Rivets recorded the first truly independent punk LP in 1978/9, pipping Swell Maps to the post (who's LP was actually funded by Rough Trade). The Pop Rivets, on the other hand, borrowed £300 from AKA, a friend, who had just received a year's Social Security back pay. AKA was a type of fan who hated Childish and dismissed the Pop Rivets as a bunch of art school wafters. The mystified Pop Rivets took the money anyway and set about recording the "Greatest Hits" LP in the front room of a bungalow in Herne Bay. (They had to stop recording for the engineers mother to watch the 6 o'clock news). The resulting LP was described in the NME as "The youngsters as the future of rock 'n' roll" and then nothing happened.In 1979 The Pop Rivets embarked on two self-promoted tours of Switzerland and Germany and recorded their 2nd LP - Empty Sounds From Anarchy Ranch. Two further EP's appeared in 1980 before The Pop Rivets recorded a lost John Peel session and split up. For The Pop Rivets, punk rock had gone horribly wrong. Thatcher - Milk Snatcher was in and New Romanticism was rearing its

poesy old head. Far from being dead and buried it seamed that Bowie and co we're on the ascendant. But there where still many questions the boys need answers for: Why did modern studios insist on making drum kits sound like the recording of a wet cardboard box with a dead fish in it? Why could no group keep its integrity beyond one LP, or even a single 45? Why were Link

Wrays 2 track recordings more vital and exciting than anything a modern 8 track studio, or 16 track studio could knock out? Did spiders really see out of all eight eyes at once? Could it be that sophistication far from enhancing creativity, destroyed it? It was time for the Pop Rivets to stifle their intellects and devolve. There were plans to record a final double LP consisting entirely of rock n roll covers recorded live on half track to be titled - The Pop Rivets Meet the Whirling Dervish and survive! They didn't.

PRANKS, THE - MODERN COMMUNICATION [SCREAMING APPLE] 2010 POWER-POP (ALE)

Move to the front of the line for "best of 2008". The Pranks "Modern Communication" pushes up there in a crowded field and I am guessing will slot in my Top 10 of the year after a few listen this is really, really FUN album of classic power pop. Fans of The Plimsouls, Paul Collins Beat and The Nerves, listen up - on the more modern, updated side of pop, I am name-checking Peachfuzz, Redd Kross and True Love. GEEK NOTE: this is NOT the late 70s power pop band featuring Jeffrey Foskett, whose unreleased material still languishes.The band proudly rape and pillage pop past. Bonding blazing guitars and jolts of exhilarating power, The Pranks are a mighty tasty and filling snack that is both healthy for you and going to put a big smile on your face because these unfiltered, high-octane, gems are just the right ticket for good rocking popping times!

"Modern Communication" lives from the enormous drive all the songs own, from a production which perfectly fits to the sound of the band, from the loud, buzzing guitars and most of all from their ability to write great, dead catchy tunes. Just listen to Song #1 below, "Your world falls down around you", 120 seconds of pure pop heaven, without drowning in stereotypes and sounding too sweet and you will understand what we are talking about. Who is able to clothe a pop-tune in a tight punk-rock suit surely deserves an award. And this should definitely happen to these popmeisters, called the PRANKS, cuz what we got here is a power-pop band that like to rock. The "Yummy" for the best modern power-pop band goes to - The Pranks. EXTREMELY HIIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

POPPETS - S/T [P TRASH] 2010 Pop (SUE)

On a cold Febuary morning the two POPPETS took out their caffeine addiction and their old drum computer pal to an empty warehouse where they met up with a cheap gang of guitars, a good-for-nothing bunch of synthesizers and a sock wearing, noise addicted microphone and together they wrung out these 8 minimalistic and animalistic lo-fi gems that were captuired immediately on a 4-track tape recorder.

Their first longer effort to date clocks in at 14 minutes and is filled to the brim with damaged and beat-up Pop that shakes and twitches in every corner. None of the involved had to suffer mental or physical damage and will soon be operational for other releases.

POWER-CHORDS, THE - THINK I'M GONNA [SCREAMING APPLE] 2008 POWER-POP (USA)

"If you stretch your memory far enough, you can probably remember a time when "pop" was still a three-letter word. Before TRL and Ryan Seacrest and teen actresses-turned-singers, pop was actually a legitimate art form.

For the members of Chula Vista, California, band The Power-Chords, it still is. And if it isn't, that's your problem. These guys take pride in stuffing 10 pounds of melodies into a 5-pound bag. In fact, from the sound of their debut single, "Unattached Strings" (out November 7 on Mean Buzz Records), these guys eat, sleep and breathe pop hooks.

"We don't like to stray too far from the rock and roll pop song format because it's a common language, although we try to twist it a bit by throwing in a weird chord here or there", says singer/guitarist Jon Hammer. "But let’s face it, the kids today need some energy, the kind of energy that was being exerted in the late ’70s, as exemplified by bands like the Clash and the Ramones, punk bands that started playing fast. The Buzzcocks are revolutionary for essentially making 'pop-punk' long before it was a generic term for modern commercial-radio punk music."

What makes the music of The Power-Chords so striking is the band's ability to channel the grimy, blood-and-piss-soaked anarchy of ’77-era punk through the solid song structure of influences like the Rolling Stones, the Beatles and the Zombies. The result is something of an anomaly in the punk world – music that sounds as wild and carefree and couldn’t-give-less-of-a-shit as The Queers, but is bound tightly with thought-out chord changes and melody lines so sweet they could give you a cavity.

It’s simple and smart, rebellious while proudly adhering to traditional form. The name "The Power-Chords" couldn't be more, or less, ironic.

In the band's short career, The Power-Chords have already raised eyebrows up and down the west coast. The boys have been nominated for a San Diego music awards in each of their three years together. But as their music suggests, winning accolades is hardly the goal for The Power-Chords.

"For me, playing shows to people exited for our music is the highlight", says bassist Craig Barclift. "It’s a great feeling to see someone going crazy for the music that you’re playing."

"Nothing can touch the fact that a few kids have told us that we gave them hope in music today," Hammer says proudly.

As The Power-Chords prove on their debut release, there is hope indeed.

12 simply amazing power-pop-punk pearls speak for themself. "... think I'm a gonna" is a true must have for all friends of euphoric, two minutes pop anthems and fans of bands like THE BUZZCOCKS, UNDERTONES and ADVERTS.

PREDATOR - S/T [DOUCHEMASTER RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (USA)

Our new years resolution in 2011 was to refrain from using the words “pop” or “catchy.” We’re sticking to our guns on this release at least as this LP is a punk behemoth. If you remember the Frantic, you know that Mike and Brannon don’t pick up instruments without asking themselves what Rick Agnew would do. This record is short and deliberate, but you can definitely pick up tinges of post punk too. The Adolescents worship continues, but you get the idea they may be secretly digging Warsaw. Comes with a download, fool. 1000 black vinyls.

PRIMA DONNA - BLESS THIS MESS [WANDA RECORDS] 2012 GLAM ROCK (USA)

"Kennt ihr noch den Rock´n´Roll in seiner Urform ?

Den vor Schweiß tropfenden, sich mit Erdnussbutter einschmierenden, wahnsinnigen und zügellosen Bastard, der den Teufel beschwört und für den sich Teenager bis zur Ohnmacht kreischen oder ihre Jungfräulichkeit verschenken ?

PRIMA DONNA sind ein solcher Bastard, eine von den Bands wie sie D-GENERATION oder die TRASH BRATS waren, die ihren Sound nicht an Klischees, sondern an den Wurzeln von Punk orientiert haben.

Sie treiben sie sich in den selben verdreckten Gossen wie die NEW YORK DOLLS herum, Johnny Thunders ist selbstverständlich allgegenwärtig, doch dazwischen ist auch Platz für die SAINTS und Chuck Berry, die gemeinsam einen durchziehen, um anschließend dem Auftritt von MOTT THE HOOPLE beizuwohnen, deren Ian Hunter wie ein Besessener auf das Piano einhämmert, während sich Iggy Pop zum Luftangriff seiner STOOGES mit dem Mikro die Stirn blutig prügelt und David Bowie „Ziggy Stardust“ inszeniert" (Dirk Le Buzz)

PUMPHOUSE GANG - S/T [SING SING RECORDS] 2011 POWER-POP (UK)

Formed from the ashes of a mid-70's rock band called Horse, the founding members of Pumphouse Gang - Ricky Wreckage (vocals), Ralph Von Wau Wau (bass), SG Coolbridge (guitar) and Dread 'Family Man' Jones (drums) were active on the fringes of the UK punk scene as early as late 1976. The band made regular trips from their base in Ryde on the Isle Of Wight to play London's live circuit at venues like The Marquee, The Speakeasy and The Nashville, and on the same bill as acts like Generation X, Fabulous Poodles, The Lurkers and The Only Ones.

This album features the best of Pumphouse Gang's material for Splash Records, including eight tracks never previously released on vinyl. Lost classics like 'When We Were Young', 'Black And White' and 'Teenage Lament' together with those now highly collectable Splash singles only emphasise how wrong the record buying public were to ignore the band back then. Perhaps this LP will go some way to righting that wrong. - James Denholm (Worthless Trash)

Q65 - REVIVAL [BOOTLEG] 1969 GARAGE-ROCK (HOL)

Along with the Outsiders this was one of Holland’s top groups. They predated the MC5 and Stooges by a few years, their sound was powerful blues derived garage rock with a nasty edge. Willem Bieler’s vocals were spit out with venom and in Frank Nuyens they possessed one of rock’s great underrated guitarists.
Revival was their second lp released in 1968/1969. Prior to that Q65 had released a superb 1966 debut, plenty of great non-lp singles and an outstanding blues rock ep titled Kjoe Blues. It was a time of transition for the group, Bieler was tired of the club circuit and opted out for military service. Other members were making new music under the name Circus. These new tracks reflected the psychedelic era but it wasn’t long before Circus folded and Hans Van Hemert released a new Q65 album titled Revival. Revival was made up of earlier singles, stray album tracks and Circus material. Much of the music had more of a psychedelic vibe but still bore many of the classic hallmarks of Q65.

RAYDIOS, THE - NOW - MELTDOWN [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2009 ROCK'N'ROLL (JAP)

Our first release from a Japanese band, and we couldn't really ask for a better one than this. For those not in the know, THE RAYDIOS is FINK from the legendary TEENGENERATE and current member of FIRESTARTER. This is their 2nd album, coming about 10 years (!) after their Demo LP on Screaming Apple. The CD version of Now is released by Japan's Mangrove Records last year (and is being distributed by Dirtnap in the USA), and is just now seeing the light of day on vinyl. It's been remastered for vinyl and remixed by Fink himself, and sounds GREAT. Musically this is no frills, crunchy, mid tempo rock n roll. Less trashy than Teengenerate, but not quite as ‘pop’ as Firestarter, this is kinda a middle ground between the two. Total dream release for Dirtnap. Pinch us.

Still unwrapped you can already feel this new long release by Swedish Überrockers REGULATIONS buzzing inside its sleeve and in the moment you put the needle in the groove you know you're finally home and that this is the Christmas present you desired and deserved!

Twelve new sharp fusillades that make this silly Hardcore-Punk heart inside of your beaten body jump with joy and pounding pleasure. When it comes to timeless and catchy early 80s US Hardcore sound in these fast and modern times of ours, the REGULATIONS take the biggest part of the cake. Once more they managed to step back to the classic Hardcore of the ADOLESCENTS, the CIRCLE JERKS or BLACK FLACK and stir it up with ingenuity, inspiration and passion in meldodic mid-tempo songs like ''Baghdad Beach Party'', ''Creature in a Cage'' or ''In the Shadow of a Mall''. You also find two excellent slower and distorted tunes with ''To be me'' and ''Down the street'' as well as the fast sweeper ''Busy night'' and the yet to be a classic ''Don't bother me'' which could have been recorded ages ago.

This record sure will keep you warm and shaking your bones to these freezing days coming ahead.

RESONARS, THE - CRUMMY DESERT SOUND [BURGER RECORDS] 2013 POP (USA)

Plenty of bands claim a garage rock influence, but The Resonars are one of the select few who genuinely sound like they could appear on a Nuggets-style compilation of vintage mid-'60s obscurities. For one thing, frontman Matt Rendon has a classic garage rock voice, rangy and just the right amount of snotty. Secondly, the band's high-energy delivery, powered by James Peters' hyperkinetic drumming and the twin-guitar attack of Rendon and Isaac Reyes, lacks the studied affectedness of so many mainstays of the underground garage revival, who too often play as if they're afraid to sweat through their perfect vintage corduroy-and-paisley outfits. But mostly, the songs on this vinyl-only release are near-perfect little two-and-a-half-minute blasts of teenage alienation ("Invisible Gold"), soaring uplift (the nearly Monkees-like "The World Is Wrong") and psychedelic quasi-profundity ("John Stone Will Be Christian') that are better than anything anyone else in this style has written since the Paisley Underground days. Put it on and dance.

RIFF RANDELLS,THE - DOUBLECROSS [ALIEN SNATCH] 2007 Pop (CAN)

They grew up on the smell of vinyl and share friends with music maniacs like The FEVERS, 5678s, Tina Luchessi & The BOBBYTEENS and The FLAKES. ALIEN SNATCH! released their 10” mini-album entitled “Lethal Lipgloss” which is seen as one of the most infectious bubblegum music and got them many fans – and also on the cover of MAXIMUM ROCK`N`ROLL. With their new album the RIFF RANDELLS found home on the highly praised and successful underground labels of the last years – ALIEN SNATCH! and DIRTNAP. Those cats roll since ´99 and are the new generation JOSIE COTTON & NIKKI CORVETTE. In their good-times attitude, musical taste and continuity in doing the most exciting thing besides having the crush on the weird geek from the Hot Dog stop is playing in a buzzing rock and roll band! “Doublecross” is a girl group power pop album driven by a JOAN JETT blend of rocking three chord guitar drenched with Kathy's spectacular, undeniable hot and saccharine vocals. She´s got what so many girl singers miss - shout it out as catchy as only girls can do and keep it punchy from start to end. No screams and tears but make the north pole melt! Get hooked on this awesome simple though catchy record you want to take right to the next party. On top they made a perfect matching choice on covering “Bandana” of the LITTLE GIRLS. Go get a lollipop! Who else than those girls are gonna sell out Converse girl sizes and make frustrated middle aged guys wear tight black jeans in combination with pasta stained horizontal striped shirts? The vinyl edition has a bonus song from the japanese session “Robot Man” and the first 100 copies are on clear red vinyl for mailorder only. Right at the LP release date in October 2007 they are heading for a european tour with CHIXDIGGIT. The RIFF RANDELLS are once more ready to play your town. Who said Girls can´t rock!? Listen up!

And after the last track, a driving and hypnotizing 6.40 minutes song, there's nothing needed to be said. Enough said!

ROCKIN' HORSE - YES IT IS [SING SING RECORDS] 1971 POWER POP (UK) REISSUE

REISSUE.Rockin' Horses' "Yes It Is" has been critically hailed as one of the true lost British power pop relics. When the late Greg Shaw (Bomp Records & Magazine) created his Voxx subsidiary, the first single he decided to reissue was Rockin' Horses' 1971 magnum opus single, "The Biggest Gossip in Town." Shaw declared that the single was the greatest power pop song of all time – heady stuff.

The power pop sounds of "Yes It Is" have been favorably compared to the best of The Beatles' "Let it Be" era and Badfinger's early 1970 efforts. As an homage, the band's name was drawn from The Beatles' "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" and the album title itself from The Beatles B-side of "Ticket to Ride."

Rockin' Horse was formed in 1971 by lifelong best friends Jimmy Campbell (The Kirkbys/23rd Turnoff) and Billy Kinsley (The Merseybeats/The Merseys) after the end of their respective Liverpool bands had split. Joining the Liverpool core duo were hired studio guns: Bobby Falloon (guitar), Stan Gorman (drums) and Michael Snow (keyboards).

Having been schooled in the very same musical influences as the Fab Four, the end result is eerily similar to the sound the Beatles were creating at the end of their career during 1968-1970. The album was not an attempt to "ape" The Beatles' sound, but more the end product of having grown up as contemporaries of The Beatles in Liverpool and listening to the same records and playing the same circuits . How could they not end up sounding similar?

Locating a copy of the original album is close to impossible and very expensive. Now you can own one of the greatest power pop recordings of all time on vinyl with its original Hipgnosis sleeve design.

Are you ready for another wylde garage-punk extravaganza?

Rightly so, then we certainly can help you out with the first long-playing record by Switzerland’s one and only kingly renowned garage band - THE ROYAL HANGMEN. The album contains 11 self-penned songs, full of tempestuous and raw energy, with plenty of hooklines, verve and style. Songs that are soaked with a sixties spirit, but were made in the here and now. It’s all in there: fuzz-guitars, VOX organs, snarling vocals, throbbing bass and rattling drums – always short, tight and efficient. And that’s exactly how the odd garage record should sound. Their self-titled debut was painstakingly produced by David Langhard (aka Admiral James T.) with much love for the detail and with heavy use of analogue equipment.

Hailing from Zurich, THE ROYAL HANGMEN started eight years ago to proclaim the gospel of garage rock. First a simple cover-band, they soon found their own style and tunes and finally some attention amongst the international 60’s/retro scene. Their first 45 single Mary Jane was released back in 2009 on Greek label Lost In Tyme. Lots of concerts in France and native Switzerland followed thereafter, culminating in a support slot for the mighty SONICS.

It took them some time to record their first proper album, but it was definitely worth the wait. So get on your go-go boots, put that marvellous wax on the turntable and shake your hips to the driving Turn Me On, the frantic Mary Jane, the melodic She’s Gone or Get Out Of My Way and all the other smashing tracks on this record, until you reach the final comedown with the moody, psychedelic “Wake Up”. What a trip. If you go bananas listening to bands like the SHADOWS OF KNIGHT, the ZAKARY THAKS, the BAD SEEDS, the CYNICS and the STAGGERS, this one’s for you babe!

It’s fab! It’s groovy - It’s THE ROYAL HANGMEN!

SHITTY LIMITS - BEWARE THE LIMITS [SORRY STATE] 2009 Punk (UK)

For the last two years The Shitty Limits from Reading and High Wycombe have easily been the most active, prolific and best punk band in the UK. They have released five untouchable 7" singles and now it's time for the debut album. Their myspace says their influences are 60's garage, 70's punk and 80's hardcore and that's exactly what you get inside this 23 minute album. It has attitude, tunes to kill for and that something special. Think a garage version of Minor Threat or 'Pink Flag' era Wire mixed with the L.A. punk scene of the late 70's. Each song is short, sharp and a fireball of energy. Hands down the best UK punk album in years.

SOMETHING FIERCE / OCCULT DETECTIVE CLUB - S/T [10"-DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2012 PUNK (USA)

Two of Texas’ leading punk monstrosities, Something Fierce and Occult Detective Club, joined forces for a split 10” for their recent tour together through the US. Both bands hail from Houston and Denton (respectively) and this release is pretty much dead on for the Dirtnap label. Something Fierce are coming hot off the heels of their 2011 release for Dirtnap, Don’t Be So Cruel, while Occult Detective Club put out their sophomore LP titled Crimes on Alive Records last year as well.

For this limited-edition split, both bands capitalize on what made their recent albums so lethal. Something Fierce clearly has the edge for making up some catchy punk rock. That becomes clear in a song like “Get On or Get Off”, featuring a tight and mid-paced pop-punk vibe that splits off halfway through the track. Grungy bass lines and shredded guitars combine for a groovy, psyched-out midsection until the track finds its footing again in the final minute.

As for Occult Detective Club, these guys offer short and blazing punk jams that on-average last about two minutes per track. Things sound a bit more sloppy and unhinged in these parts, but it makes for a blitzing good-time in a track like “Ships at Sea”. Sharp, crunchy guitar hooks lead the way through the stomping beat, revealing a fiery solo midway through the track that will quickly seal the deal.

SOMETHING FIERCE - THERE ARE NO ANSWERS [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2008 PUNK (USA)

Something Fierce take a great hook and beat the tar out of it—it’s as catchy as the Undertones but it’s a different kind of perfection, faster, louder, more frantic. Guitar lines that are simple and infectious. Lead vocals that melt into backing vocals as they hold the vowel sounds at the end of the lines.

SONIC AVENUES - TELEVISION YOUTH [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2012 PUNK (CAN)

SONIC AVENUES are just four Montreal kids who started riffing punk tunes in 2006, but since getting swept up in the booming punk epicentre of neighbouring Ottawa, they’ve been catapulted into the ranks of the best pop-punk acts in Canada! After releasing a few singles, SONIC AVENUES dropped a bomb in late 2009 with their debut LP on Ottawa’s infamous GOING GAGA RECORDS. Within a few short months, the record had sold-out twice, including out repress in cooperation with SABOTAGE RECORDS. Two years later, after obliterating eardrums from stages across North America and Europe, they returned home to record a crushing follow-up, Television Youth, this time prestigious Portland-based label DIRTNAP RECORDS will handle the pressing overseas. Featuring more of the over-driven guitars, infectious harmonized melodies and blazing 2-3 minute songs that powered their debut, the AVES have nonetheless pushed the limits into new territories with this latest offering. In short, TELEVISION YOUTH is punkier, poppier, louder and dirtier than anything they’ve done before. Armed with this devastating new arsenal, as well as ambitious touring plans spanning the (un)civilized world, SONIC AVENUES are sure to keep fists in the air and beers a-flyin’ for years to come.nes.

STAMPLETONS, THE - EARLY TAPES [TIME FOR ACTION-2LP] 2012 POP (BIE)

2LP .Formed in 2009, the Stampletons is a 60´s style Beat band from Belarus. Shortly afterwards they released a first album as a limited local edition.

Everything about the band was right – the clothes, the haircuts, the sound, the attidude and as a first appreciation the Russian band the Cavestompers invited them to play a show in Moscow. Not only that but one year later they recorded their 2nd album live at the Doo-Dah King bar, Minsk, which never saw the light of day and soon after this recordings the band fractured.

This double vinyl here is an almost definitive over-view of the bands early recordings.

Featuring a crystal-clear sound and lyrics about spring, girls, love and without any vulgarity or affectation they have laid down some mighty pure Beat/R&B/British Mod sounds.

The first disc features the bands debut album of distinctive 60´s sound in the vein of early The Kinks, The Action, Small Faces, The Who and of course the Beatles, with chirpy vocals by Alex Stampleton being reminiscient of Steve Marriot or Ray Davies in their best days.

The second disc features the previously unheard songs from their unreleased 2nd album of pure amphetamine fuelled excitement from the first minute to the last.

Comes in deluxe gatefold edition w/ extensive sleeve notes, lyrics & photos.

rom the first minute to the last.

But wait.... The Stampletons are back on the map today!

They’ve changed their line up a bit and their sound is now more embedded in 60´s psychedelia and baroque pop. Best of all they’ve already got the attention of British producer Fran Ashcroft. To be continued!

STATUES - HOLIDAY COPS [P TRASH] 2010 Punk (CAN)

Canada is so proud of their native sons that the country erected a massive golden monument to the STATUES in the middle of their hometown and sent all cops on holiday so that the punks could dance around it singing 'Hurray Hurray! a new STATUES album saw the light of day!'

Then go listen to 'Uptime' and 'Up scope, fire one' and get the chills in the slightly more dissonant and yet fantastically melodic 'Broken parts' and 'Start time'.

STEVE ADAMYK BAND, THE - THIRD [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2013 PUNK (CAN)

The Steve Adamyk Band keep things straightforward and simple, and that goes for the title of the band's third album which has been named Third, so as not to confuse anyone, as well as in the type of music it contains. Now, that doesn't mean that musically this is something to be ignored, as that is far from the truth, but basically Steve Adamyk and his companions take from a number of genres to deliver an edgy, punky power-pop set of songs that are fun to listen to without being overly taxing. The other good thing is that this formula doesn't stray from the first two albums, although I feel that the second, Forever Won't Wait, was a slight improvement over the debut self-titled long player with Forever Won't Wait and Third being neck and neck in terms of quality.

With "Not A Witness" providing a rip roaring start full of guitars and singalong parts in pure pop-punk style, the Steve Adamyk Band snatch my attention and keep it fixed on the dozen tracks that the album contains. Tracks skip along at a fair pace and it's reminiscent of the first couple of Ramones albums, the template for much of the pop-punk genre where you barely catch your breath between songs yet they still manage to implant themselves in your head. I'd also add a bit of the Dickies and Screeching Weasel into the comparison too, with Third having a frenzied yet measured, hook-laden delivery.

Though a relatively consistent album it's the likes of the opener along with "Katacombs," "Wait For Your Number," "Nightmare" and "Won't Let You Go" that stand out as the markers of the highest quality on the record.

The huge positive from listening to a record like this is that it puts me in a good mood regardless of how I might have been feeling prior to putting it on, and it also gives me a kick up the backside in terms of providing some often much needed energy to get me going: it's just so damn infectious.

Thank you to the Steve Adamyk Band for sticking to the old adage, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' as this is a continuation of previous work, thus making for yet another highly enjoyable listen.

STEVE ADAMYK BAND, THE - FOREVER WON'T WAIT [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (CAN)

THE STEVE ADAMYK BAND are a bunch of obnoxious, rowdy, "kids" from Ottawa, Ontario. While the name would automatically draw comparison to a blues, jazz or rock band given the layout, make no mistake; the Steve Adamyk Band are a punk band. The SAB play trash-pop inspired by seventies punk, the skinny tie bands of the eighties, and nineties garage rock. From the ashes of MILLION DOLLAR MARXISTS (Gearhead Records) and SEDATIVES (Deranged Records), the group was born out of necessity—a whack load of orphan songs with no band to call home. Frustrated playing in bands that would eventually call it quits, Adamyk formed a band that could have an endless timeline, even if the name is outside of the standard band name zone. Releasing two European singles before their first live performance, the SAB would go on to unload 4 seven inch singles and an LP in 2010. The self-titled LP in question sold out its initial pressing in three months and received rave reviews. The following year, the SAB toured Europe, performed at SXSW and recorded their sophomore LP Forever Won't Wait. More touring and releases are currently in the works for 2012, as it doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.

STILETTOS, THE - PUNK TRAMPOLINE [RAVE UP] 2013 Punk (USA)

The Stillettos were born out of the back room of Max’s Kansas City in the late sixties when, if you could get into the back room, you would be in the company of Andy Warhol and His Superstars, up and coming actors Al Pacino, Sly Stallone and Robert DeNiro, graced by the presence of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin , The Stones and even an occasional night with Dali or Fellini holding court at the round table. Before the Sixties waned artists and freaks clawed their way to be in Warhol movies and some found themselves in Bizarre plays of Jackie Curtis appearing at La Mama Theater which turned out to be the seeds that grew the New York Punk scene. [close] Jackie’s “Femme Fatale or the Three faces of Gloria” brought together Jayne County, Patti Smith, Penny Arcade, The Winbrandt Brothers and Elda Stilletto, to act as the music scene began to explode with the Glitter and Glam of The New York Dolls, Eric Emerson and the Magic Tramps and KISS. In 1971 Elda formed Holly Woodlawn’s Pure Garbage - she sold her Andy Warhol cow to get a loft to live and rehearse in. She brought the show to the stage of New York’s top cabaret club Reno Sweeney’s, In 1973 bent on having a rock band, Elda left Holly to pursue the cabaret she was meant to do and recruited a Max’s Kansas City waitress who said she could sing, Debbie Harry. The Stillettos were one of CBGB’s first premiere acts billed with Television, The Ramones and Patti Smith. The fifteen year career of the Stillettos became a revolving door of some of New York’s most talented musicians: with Elda at the helm. And at any time you could find Sylvain Sylvain, Johnny Thunders, Lenny Kaye, Robert Fripp, Genya Raven, or Rick Danko sitting in for a song. On this album your ears will be candied with the sounds of Cheetah Chrome (Guitarist for the Dead Boys), Walter Lure, Billy Rath, (both of JT’s Heartbreakers) Tish and Snooky, (The Sick F**ks) Rick Derringer, Leon Neon and many others who believed in the talent and writing Elda Stilletto brought to the New York Scene. Limited edition of 400 copies of this grain of punk history!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back to basics Hardcore PUNK from Belgium. These dudes have been around for most of the last decade and their efforts have largely gone unnoticed. That kind of endears me more towards them actually, but yeh they're one of the best live bands I've played with - and this record is good stuff; sped up punk with vocals that dip into Jello-esque territory. The guitarist too nods his cap to the Dead Kennedys giving the record a surf-ish vibe. It doesn't stop there though, I mean they're stealing riffs from plenty of your favourite bands. This record is great for anyone who's got bored of Dean Dirg.

SUPER WILD HORSES - FIFTEEN [HORIZONTAL ACTION] 2010 POP (AUS)

HoZac Records is proud to announce the much anticipated debut album by Melbourne duo Super Wild Horses. It’s rare that such a striking balance between tough and tender can be executed as well as it has on this long-player, bridging post-punk simplicity with savagely primitive propulsion, all wrapped up in a scratchy indie-pop envelope, sealed and delivered right into your vulnerable skull.

Super Wild Horses are two Melbourne gals who switch between guitar, drums and keyboard. Formed in 2009, they play taut, minimal and decidedly garage based pop music that relies heavily on dual harmonies over sparse arrangements. Following the release of their one sold-out EP in 2009, they have played around Australia with the likes of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Jon Spencer, The Drones and My Disco, including a much-talked about Golden Plains Sunday morning set. In addition to this, they have garnered an international cult following and had a song featured on a Bonds TV commercial.

The band’s debut album, ‘Fifteen’ is a heady concoction of hits, from the softly crushing sunny pop tracks that seduce and mesmerize on contact, to the impossibly catchy, noise-laden numbers that channel these ladies’ choppy expertise of stripped-down tension and texture. Recorded by Eddy Current Suppression Ring’s Mikey Young, this breakthrough album perfectly captures the chunky guitar/drum wallop and ripe vocal melodies. Truly an original sound in these modern times, which reflects nuances of alt-pop heroes from Dolly Mixture to The Breeders to later-era Bikini Kill, with all the hooks in between.

SUPPOSITORIES - MOMENTS OF SQUARE VIOLENCE [GOING GAGA RECORDS] 2010 Punk (CAN)

Here’s a story…about a badass band from my home town. There used to be a really cool spot to hang out, small room, weird rotting old tiki shit everywhere, great beers, great silly drinks with fruits and umbrellas, and ALWAYS great music. The household Saturday night was so much fun. It was 3 dj’s who played rad punk rock shit. I used to go almost every Saturday night. It would get crazy in there, the capacity was about 40 people, but there would be people dancing, throwing shit, puking, screaming, laughing, it was the best. Anyways, the Saturday night dj’s, a little order than me, I would soon get to know and become great friends with…these guys had a band called the SUPPOSITORIES. I saw ‘em for the first time at a terrible club, on a Sunday night. It was pretty obvious that they had little interest in promoting their band, there was nobody there…so punk! I seriously couldn’t stop moving. I’ve been to pretty much every show they’ve played since…just can’t get enough of these guys. They recorded 9 songs in their jamspace…the bass player singer is a self-made recording whiz. By the time I found out they recorded, it had already gone to press. This explains why there is no mention of GOING GAGA anywhere on the record. Either way, I kidnapped the record, and became its surrogate father. I wanted people to hear it, it’s so good. The name of the album came from a review of the band I wrote for the STANDARD ISSUE zine earlier on. These guys turn 1 chord into a whole song…minimalist perfection, with lots of violence, and noise. Could have been KBD, will be OOP, OMG, FU.

SUZY & LOS QUATTRO - STICK WITH IT [SCREAMING APPLE] 2008 POWER-POP (ESP)

"Ever wondered what The Dictators crossed with The Records with Brenda Lee singing might sound like? Well, you stopped by the right place. These guys ain't dealing in nostalgia. This album features future classics that could actually please all of the people all of the time".

This above is an excerpt from the liner notes on Suzy & Los Quattro's new album, "Stick With It" (WPR/Screaming Apple 2008), penned by Lindsay Hutton, founder of the legendary magazine The Next Big Thing and collaborator in MOJO or SOUNDS.

"Stick With It" is a great step forward in the band's career, proving they can beat any obstacle after two years of line-up changes. Now working as a four-piece, the band plans an extensive tour that will take them to 9 different countries.

Musically speaking, the band sticks to their magic formula of catchy pop songs fuelled by crunchy guitars, you only have to listen to Crazy On The Phone or Because Of You to realize they still have it when it comes to writing immediate hits. But something has changed, this time the production and arrangements are taken up a notch, without losing a grip on punkpop. This time Suzy & Los Quattro have broadened their horizons to a lot of the sounds they worship so much as die-hard music fans. H.A.T.E! is soaked wet in glam, winking an eye to bands like The Sweet, Slade and featuring some guitars likely to remind you of "Billion Dollar Babies" by Alice Cooper. Too Late will get your feet on the dance-floor like the disco Blondie did in the 70's and The Sounds have done recently. But Suzy & Los Quattro don't forget their 60's pop heritage, penning the beautiful ballad Maybe I'm Wrong, that would surely make Phil Spector proud with two pianos, strings and horns playing under Suzy Chain's voice, shining through every track of this album like never before. Of course they didn't miss their date with new-wave in cuts like Go On, which might remind you of Baby Let's Twist with Chrissie Hynde on lead vocals. And for the more straight-forward crowd, tracks like Comeback Superstar will please the surfers and Rock Boys (dig those harmonies!) will do it for the rock'n'rollers. Special mention to Donna Donna, an amazing track with one of the catchiest choruses ever, dedicated to Donna, a rescue dog that recently became part of the Quattro-Chain family, and that will be linked to animal rights camapaigns.

And watch out for the ending, Henry Rollins, easily the best proof of a new level of versatility the band has reached. A fully a capella track done exclusively with Suzy and B.B. Quattro's vocals and dedicated to the tough and muscled DC singer.

This album consolidates all the things that Suzy & Los Quattro promised on their first album, "Ready To Go!" (2004), which got rave reviews and was licensed in Germany and Japan. During 2005 they embarked on their 2 week Japanese "Lipstick To Japan Tour", which confirmed their "pop idol" status in the land of rising sun, selling out two nights in Tokyo and receiving an almost beatlesque warm welcome. You can see it for yourself on their Lipstick To Japan video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vygzxCQHViU

This tour was followed by a compilation of all their singles, "The Singles" (2006), a record that kept them on the road again, playing two times at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool, where John Otway from the BBC included their show on his top 10 of the festival (out of 150 bands on the bill!).

So for any Ramones / Blondie / Beach Boys / Raspberries fan, here's your new favourite band!

TEAM ROBESPIERRE - EVERYTHING'S PERFECT [SABOTAGE RECORDS] 2008 PUNK (CAN)

Formed in Brooklyn during the winter of 2005, the members of Team Robespierre were initially connected by their roots - having all grew up in similar punk rock scenes in New York, Denver, Minnesota, Texas, Poland and Jersey, playing in bands like Thulsa Doom, Morning Glory and Hipster Bloodbath. But as Rex, Tom, Ty, Mike and Jim got older their record collections expanded to include noise, indie, electro and new wave among other genres. All and none of these genres can be heard in their recordings or live shows. But what comes across most when seeing these guys is their raw energy and unwillingness to separate themselves from the crowd. With a sound that melds the future and the past, the Team brings back memories of 80s new wave and 90s hardcore, with the ability to share stages with bands as diverse as Dan Deacon, Japanther, An Albatross, Leftover Crack, Parts And Labor, Best Fwends, USA Is A Monster, Japanther and Kylesa. Having already embarked on 3 tours in 2007, and recently enlisting a live drummer to add another layer to their complex electro-punk arrangements, the Team felt the timing was right to record an album's worth of material. With the help of Colin Marston (Orthrelm, Ghengis Tron, Stay Fucked), Team Robespierre spent most of their summer recording an album and playing dance parties. Powered by a dirty punk rock ethos, synth hooks and programmed dance beats, Team Robespierre has helped resurrect a Brooklyn punk scene that has been waiting to embrace the raw energy of our nation's basements and late night warehouse dance parties. With a sound that melds the future and the past, the Team brings back memories of 80s new wave and 90s hardcore, and after IMPOSE owner Derek Evers saw them play a show in the spring of 2007, he ended up so drenched in beer and human sweat that he had to sign these guys – making "Everything's Perfect" the first official full-length.

TERRIBLE FEELINGS - SHADOWS [SABOTAGE RECORDS] 2012 PUNK (SUE)

The album was recorded at Tambourine Stu­dios in their hometown, in January 2012. Co-producer Erik Sunding spurred them to use more than ten different guitars and amps, a quirky violin bass played over a massive amp from the 70s, old beat up drums, farfisa, hammond, piano and tons of rippling percussion. The outcome is 12 quite different songs, somehow all tied together by a common notion; walking hand in hand towards a bleak future. For those with a weakness for melancholic yet danceable punkrock, this record might just prove to be an essential staple in any collection.

TERRIBLES, LES - QUELQUE CHOSE COME ÇA [SCREAMING APPLE] 2012 GARAGE-BEAT (FRA)

They did it again! The french ambassadors of the yéyé beat return with their third album "Quelque chose comme ça"! So, are you ready for an amazing 60's dance party? Well, don't forget to bring this platter to the DJ! LES TERRIBLES deliver an incredible mix of 60's garage-punk & big-beat shouters and give all of you Beatkeller-dwellers an excuse to dust off your winklepickers and give your mojo a workout!

The band that includes members of THE NO TALENTS, LES SYNAPSES, DUTRONC, CECILIA UND DIE SAUERKRAUTS & OPERATION S goes back to the sound of the French Beat & Roll when it was bitten by the Big Bad British Bug back in 1965. Imagine how THEM, THE SMALL FACES, THE YARDBIRDS or the early STONESwould’ve sound if they were from France, never turned professionals and Van Morrison, Keith Relf or Mike Jagger were chicks. All the songs are in French, with that glamorous 'mademoiselle' accent!

The band could've been described best as the great french sixties rock band that should have existed but never did. Owing to cultural impediments and lame business practices, there were very few outstanding french rockers from that period. Ronnie Bird, Larry Greco, and a dozen others you've never heard of: LES TERRIBLES cover them all, and every song makes you wanna dance. The band rounds out their set with some originals, as well as their own french versions of some great foreign songs that never got adapted before, all done with a perfect ear for the style. Fronted by the charming and talented chanteuse Rudie this hard-working orchestre delivers the groove that gets the dance floor moving to the Swim, the Jerk, and the Hully-Gully. Les Terribles are sur scene ! (Jon Dragueur)

A Top 10 forever-must have this one is. What more can we tell you?

TERROR VISIONS - WORLD OF SHIT [FDH RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (USA)

Back in 2007 FDH released the first and only full length record from Jay Reatard’s harsh electropunk project Terror Visions. World of shit was a collection of songs recorded between 2002 and 2006 as a outlet for songs Jay wrote that didnt fit with his current projects (Lost Sounds, Angry Angles, Jay Reatard). The record was released as a picture disk LP and CD limited to 1000 copies each. Within months we ran out of the LP’s and had only had the CD available.
We are very excited to announce a re-release of this record on vinyl. This reissue is really more of a band complete discography then a reissue. It collects the entire World of shit album (including 2 tracks that were originally CD only tracks), as well as the 2 tracks that were never released, one original and one Brian Eno cover (Baby’s on Fire).
For this reissue we had new artwork put together for a gatefold cover including a stack on uncirculated pictures of Jay. We went with 180 Gram black vinyl and had the tracks remastered to greatly improve the quality over the picture disk from a few years back.

TITLE TRACKS - IN BLANK [WINDIAN RECORDS] 2011 Garage-Pop (USA)

Title tracks is the latest project from front man john davis, who’s served time in q and not u and other dc mainstays. This is their third release following a 7″ single on dischord and their debut lp on the ernest jennings record label. Well structured / crafted pop tunes recorded at inner ears studios, a mecca for dc recording artists for the last 20 years, so you can trust pure analog warmth at its finest. The lp’s first single “turn your face” defines the simplistic, moderate sound of this band, pounding it out in a desperate calm. John usually records all the instruments himself, but this time, found himself a pretty steady, rumbling rhythm section. Eleven tracks of quality, mind mesmerizing, pop hooks that are easily their best yet.

TONGAN DEATH GRIP - CHULA VISTA [P TRASH] 2011 Punk (USA)

Holy fox, this Halifax machete swingers cut right to the chase on their debut album which P. Trash delivers right on time before your Power Pop shakes start kicking in again and you start scratching off the wallpapers on a cold Punkrock turkey. This sounds like the DICKIES holding a lighter under a tin foil where the MARKED MEN are ready to take a big drag while the grinning BRIEFS are throwing peanuts at them.

Burning down fast on 45 tokes a minute, the pacing ''Rad moves'', ''I'm not listening'' and ''Pizza jerk'' will cause a head rush and the full pack of melodies and hook-filled choruses in ''Scientology'', ''Something's wrong'', ''Stupid kids'' or ''Watching you'' , mixed with the unknown psychedelic substances of ''Billie's genes'' will keep you nailed on the floor with your own personal Chula Vista projected on the bedroom ceiling of your inner eye.

Once more, this is pushing some serious Punkrock stuff to the needy. Rehab is futile.

2º Lp de LOS TRACAHOMBRES (Valencia) exclusivamente en vinilo y en una limitada edición repartida entre la gentuza de los sellos Discos Calamidad, Sonámbulo Records y Tuca Raca, un puto placer. Después de su anterior trabajo homónimo (2009) LOS TRACAHOMBRES nos asaltan con una nueva propuesta, “Rock and Roll despechado”, un nuevo Lp mucho más trabajado, con una presentación y sonido más cuidado, coros y registros vocales y unos teclados que trastornarán (aún más) tu jodida masa cerebral.

Ritmos frenéticos y melodías manteniendo el espíritu crudo marca de la casa, parte de la cortante personalidad de la banda. Mete en una vieja batidora de funcionamiento desfasado y cuchillas oxidadas a bandas como LOS SAICOS, LOS CRAMPS, LINK WRAY, GABINETE CALIGARI, TOM WAITS, SEX PISTOLS, CHUCK BERRY… y te haces una idea. Garaje, Rock&Roll y Punk Rock a partes iguales con una personalidad y actitud que acompleja. Un disco que repasa sin pegas las distintas vertientes del Rock a lo largo de sus décadas. Como dijo el poeta: ritmos primitivos, vidas salvajes. Sonidos primitivos que te devolverán a las cavernas los que destilan las 12 canciones (incluyendo una versión libre de MERLE TRAVIS) de este Lp registrado en directo en solamente dos días! Y con una masterización especial y específicamente cuidada para una única edición en vinilo! Cuidando graves y medios para que suene POTENTE, como debe ser! Fresco y salvaje, ácido y dulce, gamberro y “maduro”…es el resultado plasmando excelentemente un fresco álbum de Rock&Roll salvaje de los que hacía tiempo que no escuchabamos. Con letras dementes y atormentadas que te recordarán a tus pesadillas favoritas, esas de las que te levantas brutalmente empalmao.

TV IDOLS - 17, DESPERATE AND ALL MESSED UP [SCREAMING APPLE] 2001 PUNK (JAP)

Do you remember the PHANTOM RATS? These guys have put out some of the most impressive punk´n´roll platters of the nineties and together with bands like TEENGENERATE & the 5,6,7,8´S they were responsible for the beginning of the japanese rock´n´roll invasion in America and Europe. Unfortunately they broke up in 1997, but singer, songwriter and guitar player Kazand drummer Tetsu couldn´t do without playing and formed this new and even stronger outfit called the TV IDOLS. 17, desperate and all messed up is their debut albumand it´s the hell of a record. While the PHAMTOM RATS had a strongrock´n´roll influence, the TV IDOLS are more fixed on late 7t´s, earlyeighties US punk, like the DEAD BOYS and the early REPLACEMENTS. Great songs, catchy hooks, a hard edged guitar sound and a real driving rhythmsection, that describes the TV IDOLS sound best. 12 powerful and energetic punk-rock anthems including covers of the DEAD BOYS and the RICH KIDS make thisrecord one of the punkin´ highlights of the new millennium.

TYRANNA - S/T [RAVE UP] 2011 Punk (CAN)

Whenever Toronto’s punk scene of the late 70s is discussed, it’s usually the Diodes and the infamous Viletones that get name-checked, while other important bands of the era are overlooked.

In some cases, there are good reasons why groups that regularly played the main punk venues of the era like the Turning Point, Larry’s Hideaway and the Crash ’n’ Burn are now largely forgotten.

Tyranna’s best work wasn’t released on singles at the time, and they rarely ventured outside the city during their brief run in 1978 and 79. This explains why the energetic pop-punk crew led by the snarly Vera “Rabies” Skye, who split bills with Iggy Pop, Jane County, the Members and the Dils, isn’t better known today. The band also appeared on 'My Girlfriend Was a Punk' compilation with the track 'Back Off Baby'.

It may be 30 years too late, but Tyranna’s long-rumoured early demos, finally being released on album on Rave Up records!

Following hot on the heels of the band's The Golden Shower EP (out on the Oddball label), The Ulcers started playing their brand of high energy punk n roll in 2002. Having had half of London in their line-up, they've finally settled on merely sharing Eric (the drummer) with The Parkinsons.

'Hot Skin & Cold hard Ca$h' is fast furious fun full of dirty rock n roll and filthy punk rock in the same vein as early Rocket From The Crypt, New Bomb Turks etc.

ÚLTIMO RESORTE - DEMO 1980 - DIRECTO 1983 (BILBAO) [VOMITO PUNK ROCK RECORDS] 2012 Punk (ESP)

Bueno en el título queda bastante claro lo que contiene este disco. Un vinilo hecho por fans con cariño (eso se nota) para darle una sorpresita a Silvia. Incluye un libreto extenso con comentarios de la propia Silvia y de músicos de grupos como Desechables, Vomito, Monstruacción, Decibelios, TDEK, Familia Real, Vulpess (ya sabéis, barriendo para casa)... y gente tan sobresaliente como Punkike o TGL.

Sin duda lo que más me gusta es la maqueta del 80 (grabado en la sala Garaje y con un tema que no conocíamos (Johnny cogio su fúsil). La etapa que más me gusta de Último Resorte es esta primera, mucho más Punk y menos Hard Core, rozando incluso la Nueva Ola. Las tomas grabadas aquel día no son tan brillantes como las que salen en el Post Mortem (insuperables para mi gusto) y el sonido es mucho más crudo, incluso cavernoso. Sorprende la lentitud con la que están grabados temas que en el PM son superacelerados como Me Excitas, La Quiniela o Año 2000 y no digamos ya los anfétaminicos Cementerio Caliente o Peligro Social que en el single van a una hostia increible y aquí son tan pausados que a veces tienes que comprobar que el disco es a 33 RPM y no a 45 RPM. Eso sí, el que sean tomas más lentas no quiere decir que sean malas. A mí me gustan bastante (porque son temazos, qué duda cabe) y porque ayuda a descubrir matices, entender mejor las letras y verlos de otra manera. Por no hablar que ese sonido (bastante aceptable) a caverna que mola mogollón.

En la cara B tenemos el directo del 83 que dieron con Las Vulpess, en donde se dedican a pisar el acelerador (aunque sin llegar a la velocidad de su última etapa). Y en el repertorio comienzan a aparecer ya temas tardios (Una Guerra sin fondo), pero aún se mantienen bastantes clásicos pre-single. Eso sí, a pesar de la velocidad, el sonido (muy muy malo) destartalado hace que todo suene mucho menos HC de lo esperado. La batería parece un tambor de Colón y la voz superalta, tapa las guitarras. Más que UR parecen un grupo de chavalillos de 14 años haciendo versiones de UR en el garaje de su casa y grabándose con un radiocassette situado en el piso de arriba, jajaja. A mí eso me mola mogollón, ya lo sabéis. Pero supongo que a mucha gente le parecerá un poco tomadura de pelo. A esa gente les recomiendo que se centren mejor en la cara A (documentazo histórico), donde el sonido, sin ser la leche, es bastante aceptable para lo que suelen ser estas cintas rescatadas.

No es, desde luego, lo mejor de UR, pero sin duda se trata de un documento muy interesante, solo para fans, eso sí. Pero, ¿quién no es fan? Punk!!!

ÚLTIMO RESORTE - LA LARGA SOMBRE DEL PUNK [LA VIDA ES UN MUS] 2009 Punk (ESP)

Último Resorte fueron el puente entre la primera generación del punk español y la primera oleada del Hardcore egpañol. Durante sus 5 años de existencia (1979-1984) sólo lograron grabar una demo, y dos registros imposibles de encontrar en la actualidad. Un EP 7" titulado 'Ultimo Resorte' con 7 pistas y un Maxi 12" titulado 'Una Causa Sin Fondo' con 5 pistas.

'La Larga Sombra Del Punk' recopila pues estos dos registros además de contener un libreto con 16 páginas de 11"x11" con una larga entrevista la banda hecha para el fanzine americano MRR además de toneladas de fotos y recortes de fanzines.

Musicalmente UR ocupaban la vertiente más agresiva que estaba entre Vice Squad, Discharge, Electric Deads, o acaso Siouxsie and The Banshees. Liderados por Silvia Resorte, su voz se convirtió en su propia marca de distinción y siempre estaba respaldada por una banda que con urgencia trataban de averiguar donde estaba su propio fondo, además de un sintetizador que jugaba creando ambientes fríos en la mayor parte de sus canciones.

Esta banda seminal proveniente de Barcelona, se puede decir que destilaban cierto sentimiento de desesperación en sus canciones. Sus letras tenían el sentimiento de angustia adolescente que sólo las bandas de principios de los 80 eran capaces de escribir. Junto con Rip, Kangrena, Anti-Dogmatikss, Vulpess o Larse, el grupo ayudó a poner a España al día en el mapa internacional del punk.

Primera edición de 'La Larga Sombra Del Punk' es de 860 ejemplares con 160 de ellos en vinilo de color rojo para la venta por correo.

V/A - LAND OF NOD: AN ATLANTA PUNK AND HARCORE OMNIBUS [SCAVENGER OF DEATH] 2013 Punk (USA)

Local and regional compilations used to connect listeners with obscure punk tunes long before the Internet furthered the reach of fledgling bands. Compilations such as the recently released Land of Nod: Atlanta Punk and Hardcore Omnibus still have a purpose in the digital age, serving as timestamps that capture the state of underground rock music at a certain time and place. Land of Nod showcases 13 different bands, 11 from Atlanta and two based in nearby Athens, compiled by G.G. King and COPS band mates and Scavenger of Death label bosses Ryan Bell and Greg King. It's a pretty cohesive list of local punk acts, as only Resons is conspicuous by its absence.

Album opener "Born Dead Generation" by Bukkake Boys captures the now-defunct hardcore band in all its brutal glory and sets the tone for the rest of the album. Punk compilations often contain both bands that have called it quits and the first officially released track by newer acts. Land of Nod is no exception, as it includes what are likely the last two officially released Bukkake Boys songs and the vinyl debuts of Athens-based American Cheeseburger offshoot Shaved Christ, local grind standard-bearers God's Balls and Predator spin-offs Acid Freaks and G.H.B.

Speaking of Predator, their two offerings show the group coming off a lengthy hiatus sounding stronger sonically and lyrically. Whether this is the intention or not, these songs should sway several listeners to pick up a copy of another new Scavenger of Death release: a Predator cassette featuring new songs and unreleased demos. Other punk and hardcore highlights include G.G. King's dim yet catchy "Eternal Feeling," which stacks up well against both sides of the band's stellar "Joyless Masturbation" seven-inch, and Ralph's hilarious, eponymously titled slice of 1980s hardcore that cements that the band's name is a reference to puking.

Not every band on the compilation can be considered hardcore or, depending on whom you ask, punk. Still, everything from bands on the noisier end of the spectrum (Vincas and Wymyn's Prysyn) fits the flow of the album. This is probably less of a surprise than the seamless inclusion of a song by power-pop songsmith Gentleman Jesse Smith. The track in question, "Fence Yourself In," owes more to catchier Killed By Death deep cuts than Stiff Records power-pop.

Overall, this is a solid collection of modern local punk songs. Like 1980's Standard Deviations, which captured the aftermath of the Sex Pistols making their U.S. debut two years earlier in a Buckhead shopping mall, and The View: An Atlanta Compilation, 1984-1990, a Lunchbox Records cassette that showed a local shift from early American hardcore to the sounds associated with more visible acts on SST and Dischord Records, this will someday serve as a history lesson to young Atlanta punks. Until that day comes, Land of Nod will be an exciting listen for the bands' peers and, if we're lucky, will let outsiders know that more goes on in Atlanta than a now slim garage-rock scene.

V/A - ITALIA NEW WAVE [SPITTLE RECORDS] 2012 NEW WAVE-PUNK (ITA)

What exactly happened in the Italian underground / post punk scene 30 years ago, is not entirely clear. Therefore, this collection of 13 incredible tunes helps tracking down the feeling and focuses on the blurry images of a period that was mixing influences from the UK/USA scenes with a more “national” approach to new music developments. The damage began in 1977 when a series of urban / suburban musical agitators, whether skilled or complete amateurs, decided to embrace instruments as weapons for a war against sonic stereotypes. Here’s the result: a multiform sonic attack that marks the history of a movement that may have remained local in most cases but whose echo reflected the amazing creativity of a generation.

The one that reall got the madness rolling. Many records on this are really great and are among the greatest punk rock classics. The first pressing varies a lot from later pressings. Not only did the first press come with an insert, it also has the entire Pollywog Stew ep by the Beastie Boys, as well as a "special bonus track" at the end of side two. Interestingly, the first pressing also has a picture of the Nasty Facts' 7", but doesn't include any of their songs. Later pressing omit the Nasty Facts sleeve, as well as the other records that don't appear, which are the Beastie Boys songs and the bonus tracks(*). This is still one of the greatest comps ever!

Third record in the Bloodstains series. This, along with ...Texas and ...California were the originals of this series. The information given about the bands/records is as often fiction as it is fact. The Gynecologists, for example, were definitely not from Hogfuck, Indiana. I should know--that's my hometown! Actually, next time you are in Indiana, go to Bloomington, head to the corner of Kirkwood and Walnut, right on the town square. You'll see a video store called Plan 9 Video. It's downstairs, under a book store. Ask for Kerry Scott. He's none other than Tommy Afterbirth! Then you can go take a shit on John Mellencamp's front porch. Like Texas and California, this is one of the best in the series! However, being from the Midwest, this one has a special place in my heart.

V/A - TURIST I TILLVARON VOL3 - A SWEDISH COMPILATION [TURIST] 2012 Punk (SUE)

Yet another compilation from Turist i Tillvaron are now released. The different genres are significant for this compilation collection. I find both old and new acquaintances. The Negatives who've belong to one of my favorite bands for a long time give me strong pogo feelings with their brilliant punkrock. Hyrda Knektar, another punkrock band, but with more pop feelings than The Negatives suprise me in a positive way. Uppgång & Fall have that classic swedish 80.s punkpop sound and the female/male vocals make it really good. Vervain, who use to be a good band isn't good this time, I think they have to decide how they wanna sound, it's the vocals who disturb me most it just doesn't sound good. The crust/hardcore bands on this volume is the mediocre Total Aggression, the good Träshers and another good band Livet som insats who play really raw and fast kängcore. Just like Uppgång & Fall have Vånna Inget that old punkpop sound, and I think it's allt the bands from that genre I like most from the Turist i tillvaron compilations. I didn't realize how good Vånna Inget really are, I wanted more and found more on Spotify, I have to buy their records when I get more money. Antipati is the last band on this volume, and if you've read all reviews in this issue do you already know how much I like them.

V/A - OH NO IT'S MORE FROM RAW [DAMAGED GOODS] 1999 PUNK (UK) REISSUE

Raw Records was one of the UK's first ever independent labels, having been formed in 1977 by Lee Wood. This was the second compilation they issued in early 1978 following up the ‘Raw Deal!’ album (Damgood 209). This reissue includes 4 bonus tracks including the ultra rare ‘Into the 80’s’ by The Now.

16 of the label's best tracks feature here alongside a comprehensive discography of one of the most important but vastly underrated indie labels of our time. Bands such as The Users, Killjoys, Lockjaw and The Unwanted later provided members for the likes of The Cure, Psychedelic Furs, UK Subs and Dexy's Midnight Runners whilst the scarcity of Raw's releases made them highly prized collectors' items.Two Soft Boys tracks from one of the rarest Raw singles fetaure here, unavailable elsewhere.

The CD also features original photo’s, posters and adverts from 1978. As with the RAW DEAL compilation the vinyl version comes in two different colours, Red and Blue

V/A - THE WORLD'S LOUSY WITH IDEAS Vol. 8 [ALMOST READY] 2009 LO-FI/POP/GARAGE (USA)

9 songs - 31 mins.
Vivian Girls - Lake House;Blank Dogs - Ages Ago;Pink Reason - Going Home;Guinea Worms - Soiled Sender;Times New Viking - A Lot of Paintings;
Tyvek - Flowers (different/better version than cd-r);Intelligence - The Beetles;Sic Alps - STREPIX;Thee Oh Sees - Schwag Rifles.

Basically I think comps are pretty worthless these days. Maybe ever. Unless you are attempting to sum up the state of a 'scene'. Which is what records like All The Presidents Men did. And what "The World's Lousy With Ideas Volume 8" does. For this record features the cream of the cop in the new Yankee garage / lo-fi - pop / indie scene, and it's not just a bunch of throwaway crap like on various comps what have been released over the years. Vivian Girls open up and present us with "Lake House" which is a gorgeous slice of fuzzed out laziness that could have come straight off of that awesome Katie the Pest CD that not enough people know about. Rectify that please, if you enjoy this sound you need to be listening to Katie the Pest. The absurdly prolific Blank Dogs bounce off the end of that with their typical synthy "dark wave" or whatever you're supposed to call it, basically they sound like Joy Division gone wrong. I can't say I regularly sit down to listen to Blank Dogs, but I do enjoy them and in small doses they are particularly enjoyable. If you listen to that 2 x 12" thing in one sitting, you are a tougher person than I. Times New Viking may steal the show on here with the stunning "A Lot Of Paintings". I've struggled with this bands albums but this song is so super sweet. No production, messed harmonies, complete failure - plenty of bands do the thing where they record into something with the fidelity of a dictaphone, but Times New Viking are capable of writing an awesome song, and that is what sets them apart from the knuckle dragging masses. Intelligence did a fairly unremarkable LP on In the Red recently, but this loping fuzzy garage rock piece is eminently listenable, good work chaps! Guinea Worms wind down side A with a lumpen, loafing punk effort, great bassline and it sounds pretty drunk. I reckon this is somewhere between Moss Icon and something hipper. I like this a lot.

Flipping to side B, Sic Alps do the throw away track of the record, pointless noise and feedback, zzz. Easy to skip them to the ultra hip Thee Oh Sees, who actually disappoint with their effort, a fairly average slice of their garage rawness with echoing vocals. You'll find far better on their most recent LP, but that's not to say this is terrible. An average Thee Oh Sees effort is of more interest than song A by generic garage band B. Next is Tyvek (you should be getting the picture by now, the line up on this comp is astonishing), who deal a slow burning effort that meanders and like Guinea Worms is somewhere between Moss Icon and something hipper. This band is seriously impressive, and I just wish their LP on Siltbreeze had been a bit better. Rounding things out on here is Pink Reason, who do this towering epic, spiralling guitars and stoned vocals, there is so much to like on this track, teetering on the edge of falling apart. The way it builds and with the tribal drumming, this sounds really in the ball park of any number of mid 90s emo bands that anyone who likes this kind of music would be so quick to disown. It's just the vocals that differ. I'm not making this up. This could have been on Goldenrod or something. Best track on the record.

So, um, easily the best comp I have heard in a lot of years. This record makes me very excited about new music. I hope it does for you too.

VANNA INGET - ALLVAR [P TRASH] 2011 Punk (SUE)

To our humble ears, the alloy of Scandinavian melancholy and perfect melodies somehow always seems to work whenever we put on Swedish bands like the BOMBETTES, TERRIBLE FEELINGS, VICIOUS or INVASIONEN. But never has a comparable sound emulgated into what awaits to be discovered inside the blurry cover of this record. The unlocked potential of the small-town blues of Småland and the ardent post-teenage angst bundled in 10 songs that slowly burn a hole into a gray and bland surface. Singer Karolina's crystal clear and intense voice covers a tight texture of melodies that brachiate from hookline to hookline, somehow comparable to the early 80s Californian Punk of THE AVENGERS that meets the more New Wave sound of Swedish Feminist-Agit Punk bands TANT STRUL and PINK CHAMPAGNE. The three slower songs on this LP perfectly fit inside the steady mid-tempo and increase the feeling sadness and anxiety expressed im- and explicitely. A piercing ray of sunlight on a cold autumn day.

This LP has all the hallmarks of being a killer instant classic!!!

VAPID - PRACTICALLY DEAD [DERANGED RECORDS] 2009 Punk (CAN)

Cuatro chicas de Vancouver, CAN, forman Vapid en 2006. Un par de años después editan un single de punk sencillo y quedón y en 2009 consiguen sacar su primer largo, Practically Dead, con el que añaden cierto empaque y sustancia a la constante. Punk con sensibilidad pop y no pop con toques punk aderezando el conjunto para la ocasión y el pegolote. Completan el aliño ecos al bubblegum, al hardcore americano de primera generación, el garage punk marca de la casa de la factoría Billy Childish, sutiles toques ramonianos -sobre todo los que aluden a las girl bands de los 60- y mucha actitud Riot Grrl. Rabia y ternura en un mismo nanosegundo. Y una propuesta que engloba distintas y variadas influencias en un conjunto ya no sencillo, sino maravillosamente simple. De ese modo recuerdan a los Samoans en Choke, alardean doblando voces melódicas en Die, garagean ala Monks en Take a Walk, Baby y con Bruises destruyen el mito para los que creen que la chicas no saben roquear. Y todo esto es sólo la mitad del camino.www.myspace.com/xxxvapidxxx

VINCAS - BLOOD BLEEDS [DOUCHEMASTER RECORDS] 2012 POWER-POP (USA)

You would think that because only about 60 miles separate the cities of Athens and Atlanta, Georgia that maybe the same sphere of influence would affect both. In the past decade, Atlanta has seen the growth of a creatively sustainable music scene, and we sort of forgot about our neighbors up the road. There is no shortage of great bars, restaurants and clubs in Athens, but it’s been a little while since an Athens band made me want to jump in my car and make the trip. Vincas have given me that much needed excuse. Blood Bleeds is a monster of a record. They are playing dark and heavy songs that at once will draw Birthday Party and Gun Club comparisons. I’d bet they have some later Scientists records in their collections too as there is a discernible element of swampishness weaving itself throughout the record. It’s sexy in a super-bitter dark chocolate kind of way and has a pounding cohesiveness throughout. Vincas demonstrate total control from start to finish, and it’s pretty clear that they didn’t just stumble onto a style of music like this. We truly hope the folks over in Athens realize what they’ve got on their hands. Vincas self released the first 100 copies with screen printed covers. Good luck finding them. We do not have any. There are 500 total. All copies are on black vinyl and come with a download code.

VISITORS - AVENGING THE VISIGOTHS [GOING GAGA RECORDS] 2010 PUNK (CAN)

The VISITORS come from a faraway place. They keep an apartment in Ottawa to stay in touch with the scene. This is the scene that built their empire, an empire which they rule over, and visit often. Ottawa knows a good band when it hears one, and the VISITORS are definitely a local favourite. This 3 piece male ‘n female combo have the songs and the raw energy that can turn a stranger into a fan. What you have here is the latest 6 cuts of the VISITORS best! Trading off vocals between all three members, the righteous 3 piece format delivers unrelenting downstrokes, fast 4’s, and great melodies. They say they wanna sit between the Riverdales, the Ramones, and Iron Maiden. I always think of the Tyrades, Marked Men, and the Distillers (in a really good way, even though I don’t think I’ve ever listened to a full song, it’s just that Erin has a voice that’s rough in all the right ways…no wimpy girl voice!). Skottie from the CREEPS is on guitar duty here! And Berger’s been playing pop punk drums (well!) for like 15 years! Highly recommended for fans of any of those name drops. This limited edition pressing of 300 copies is housed in a full colour jacket, with a 2 sided full colour insert. A MUST have for any punk rock record fan!

VIVIAN GIRLS - S/T [IN THE RED] 2008 Rock (USA)

As usual, things always happen faster in New York, and this week's Breaking Sounds feature shines the spotlight on a group of three upstart females who have taken the noisy pop mantra and dipped it in pure gold, the Vivian Girls. If you're familiar with outsider artist/Chicago janitor Henry Darger's bizarre paintings (he coined the term 'Vivian Girls') that have turned the art world on it's ear over the past decade, it's prime time for those oddly alluring innocent nuances to be absorbed and reconfigured in a most pleasant musical format, contrary to the similarly-named bands HERE and HERE.

With their debut 7" on their very own Plays With Dolls Records already sending out waves of panic and adoration to the outer limits of the underground pop contingent, they have become the newest breakout sirens of the New York loft-pop brigade. Within seconds of hearing their seductive three-part vocal harmonies lushly interwoven with chest-pounding rhythms of beautiful feedback, it's obvious that their songs are hard to resist, especially if you find yourself keen on the mid-80s noise pop trifecta of Jesus And Mary Chain, Black Tambourine, and most notably, The Shop Assistants.

As anticipated, the Vivian Girls' debut LP surfaced this month on Mauled By Tigers Records, and is available from the band on their current nationwide tour for an essential pop platter that your bummer of a summer won't be complete without. Swirling noise topped with sweetly angelic vocals is practically a can't-miss concoction, so expect your fruity neighbors and your attention-starved friends to chime in with unabashed praise. As a matter of fact, In The Red Records has already snatched up the 'Girls with plans to reissue their debut album within the coming months, after the first MBT pressing inevitably sells out. With another action-packed tour in the works for August along with cohorts, Crystal Stilts, look for the Vivian Girls to be everywhere you want to be this year, and catch them live before they blow up like their predecessors. Fanning the flames of their grassroots support circuit, the added help of extra publicity from the similarly-titled play As Told To The Vivian Girls (which just ended a month-long run in Chicago by the Dog & Pony theater group) pushes their presence ever further to the forefront of modern pop.

Pick up the LP from Mauled By Tigers, right HERE or better yet, buy it from the band on the West coast this week, and on throughout their Midwest tour next month for a lethal dose of female-powered raw pop perfection that breaks out like few others have before them.

WARM JETS, THE - WANNA START A WAR [RAVE UP] 2010 Punk (USA)

Philadelphia’s punk rock finest band! Started in 1977, the band was really popular at the ‘The Hot Club’, one of the main punk venues in USA. They had a punk ethos, but laced with a potent pop mentality and a big sense of pure theatricality that reminded one of suck disparate outfits as Sparks, The Weirdos, Lance Loud’s Mumps and The Dickies, not to mention The Monkees! Unfortunately the band recorded only one acetate and few studio tracks that you can find in this anthology that contains the best production of their unlucky career!!!

Pure US punk genius, grab this!!!

WARSONG - ANCIENT TIMES [THE PRESSION RECORDS] 2011 Punk (ESP)

Warsong are a relatively new band from Spain featuring members of Insomnio and No Escape. Warsong deliver the goods with their debut Lp entitled Ancient Times. Ancient Times features 9 tracks of melodic and anthematic songs that have definite Strike Anywhere, Dag Nasty, and Red Tape Parade type influences. The nine songs on Ancient Times make Warsong easily accesible and will appeal to fans of both hardcore and punk in a way bands such as Strike Anywhere, Avail, and Hot Water Music can do. The guys in Warsong craft some really well done melodic hardcore/punk with a slight rock edge to it. Ancient Times is a definite must for fans of Strike Anywhere, Hot Water Music, and other rock leaning bands of that nature. Good stuff. Enjoy!

WAX MUSEUMS - ZOO FULL OF RAMONES [TIC TAC TOTALLY] 2011 PUNK (USA)

Billy’s Room, TX. Peering across the floor through beer cans, garbage and vomit-encrusted B-movie clamshells...something moves. You slowly look into a shaking cheeseburger bag...AND THE WAX MUSEUMS EMERGE TO CLAW YOUR NOSE OFF! It lands on a rotting hamburger. You die. They've crafted the sickest spectacle of partying, sharp humor, and Steinberger basses since they crawled out of a VCR in 2006. And if you've had an eyeball (Yes? No?!)...you've seen them. But do not dismay if you've missed any of their out-of-print wax previously issued on Hozac, Douchemaster, Kenrock, Rehab or Fashionable Idiots. Because here's the entire carnivorous monkey-house in one 24-track LP...Zoo Full Of Ramones!

Our scientists at TTT have recreated the very primordial ooze of the band. Returning to print every dose of concentrated hyperactivity, and enhancing them with an extra beaker of UNRELEASED, and rare material, circa 2006-2008 AD.

WHITE FACES - S/T [WINDIAN RECORDS] 2011 Garage-Pop (USA)

White Faces debut S/T LP is a perfect mixture of pop  gone blasted, from the fiery L. A. swagger vox, to the driving bass, to the completely under-out-of-control drum bashing, this album lives up to the hype, and  will be spinning on your turntable for quite some time. From the furious, out of the gates riff of “Disconnected” this album will keep your attention as one after another of well written, pop laden, cock-sure rock ‘n rollers are feverishly screaming out of your speakers. The albums “Happy” and “Ain’t Havin’ Me” are the perfect example of the bands direction, tight, dance-able pop garage with a West Coast swagger. Also includes a cover of Milk ‘N Cookies “Nots”!

WHITE WIRES - II [DIRTNAP RECORDS] 2011 Garage-Pop (CAN)

Tras la meteórica edición y reedición de su primer lp, ya había ganas de escuchar este nuevo disco que el sello de Oregon anunciaba como nuevo fichaje. Entre medias, pequeños disparos de punk con nervio en formato de siete pulgadas. Portada de esas que a un servidor le encantan y temas que giran a 45 revoluciones en formato de lp y el trío de Ottawa que sigue el mismo esquema que nos atrapó con su primer álbum, guitarras rudas pero sin complicarse en buscar nada nuevo, melodías arrebatadoras, canciones de poco más de dos minutos y temas para caer en sus redes como  “Did you forget my name”, “I can tell”, “Be true to your school (‘til you get kicked out)”, “Popularity”, si cuando eras un “chinorris” te gustaban los Buzzcocks no tienes excusa para pasar por alto este disco, que a medida que sigue sonando  con temas como “Hands” y “Summer girl” hace que mi cabeza vuele por completo.

WIMPS - ROLLIN' ON [INCOGNITO RECORDS] 2003 Punk (HOL)

Algo más melódico que el material al que nos tienen acostumbrados los de Incógnito records, llegan los Wimps. Desde los países bajos, pero sonando alto, llega esta mezcla entre el Lo Fi R'N'R de Steve McQueens y la melodía sucia de Burger Kings (el grupo paralelo de Steve McQueens). Para completar el cocktail añádele a eso un toque a lo Supersuckers pero en plan meloso y unas gotitas muy suaves de Country. Se les puede emparentar con los Demonics, incluso, a veces llegan a aburrir tanto como ellos; pero cuando llegas a la versión de Rezillos ("Somebody's gonna get their head kicked in tonight") descubres que tienen más estilo y clase que aquellos demonios de tercera división. Si te gusta el punk melódico con algo de suciedad, te gustará.

WRONG WORDS, THE - S/T [TROUBLE IN MIND] 2011 POP (USA)

For those of us who take our record collection maybe a little too seriously, it’s a comfort when a band just seems to get it. While there isn’t much left to be said about the current music scene in San Francisco (where The Wrong Words hail from) we like to think they have combined all of its best elements (power pop, punk and a dab of flower-psych) on this amazingly solid debut LP. Recorded by Greg Ashley of The Gris Gris and mastered by Mikey Young of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Wrong Words have been referred to as a “West Coast Gentleman Jesse”. While there is no denying the Californian influence, there is a midwestern blue collar pop feel as well a’la The Scruffs or more than a few tracks off of the Yellow Pills comp. This album has pop hooks galore, great lyrics and ripping guitar work.The Wrong Words take tried and true themes such as hating your day job and letting your girl down but put their own ‘catchy as hell’ spin on them. Stick it on the turntable, but be warned, it’s going to be there for a while.

RIYL: Gentleman Jesse, Jaill, XTC, Nick Lowe, Barracudas

X-BELIEBIG - OH TANNEBAUM [RAVE UP] 2012 PUNK (ALE)

X-BELIEBIG was founded in Wiener Neustadt in 1980 by the two then-17-year-olds Rene Adamecz (guitars/vocals), Franz Heuschneider (bass), as well as Bernd Bechtloff (drums)—Bechtloff had just turned 13 years old at the time. The primary musical focus was at first German-language punk, although none of the musicians considered themselves punk rockers.They rehearsed for several months and, in 1980, gave their first concert at the Snack-Bar, a highly popular venue in Wiener Neustadt at the time. Performances near Wiener Neustadt with various smaller bands from Wiener Neustadt (among them Zerbrechlich and Dämmerattacke), mostly in self-organized concerts, followed. The band later went on to perform in Vienna, at the Amerlinghaus, Metropol, Gassergasse and the U4.In the spring of 1981, the original bassist [close] Franz Heuschneider switched to the Wiener Neustadt band Dämmerattacke and was replaced by Zoltán Daróczi. Starting at this time, a clear change in the band’s musical focus, away from punk and towards music inspired by the band Joy Division but with German texts, could be observed.In the spring of 1981 a cassette recording was recorded for the Panza-Platte label, and the single Leben ist Blut / Illusionen (english: Life is Blood / Illusions) was recorded in the summer of 1981.

X-CERTS, THE - RATED XXX [BRISTOL ARCHIVE RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (UK)

As 1978 wore on, we thanked God for the likes of UK Subs and Angelic Upstarts, and here in Brizzle...the mighty X-Certs! With Clive Arnold (vocals and guitar), Simon Justice (guitar), Taf (bass) and Neil Mackie (drums), The X-Certs served up welcome blasts of Clash-style punk anthems. They were politically charged and passionate, friendly and down to earth, and a great live act, but for some reason their recordings were relatively few and far between. One track, Blue Movies, on Hearbeat Records' 4-Alternatives EP, and another called Anthem on the same label's acclaimed Avon Calling compilation album. And that's yer lot with the original line up.

This edition includes a Limited Edition Insert with stories from all four members of the band, Introduction by Shane Baldwin and never seen before pictures.

X-PRAYS - S/T [BOWERY RECORDS] 2011 PUNK (ESP)

X-Prays son un trío madrileño de Punk formado por miembros de Webelos, Grupo Sub-1, Obediencia... Surgen de las cenizas de los desaparecidos Asiatics con una propuesta más agresiva, más directa y, definitivamente, más Punk. Las flipantes voces femeninas son las protagonistas absolutas y en seguida traerán a tu memoria a grupos KBD como VKTMS, Electric Deads o UXA. Tampoco desentonarían compartiendo cartel con bandas más actuales del calibre de Spastics, Tyrades o Gorila Angreb. A pesar de ello, no renuncian en ningún momento a tener un sonido propio y composiciones originales, que combinan, de un modo bastante original, la sencillez instrumental con unas audaces melodías vocales. El resultado: hits instántaneos tan pegadizos como inmediatos. Pero lo mejor es que eches una escucha y juzgues tú mismo. http://soloespunk.bandcamp.com/album/x-prays

YEAR ZERO - YEAR ONE [P TRASH] 2011 PUNK (CAN)

Great new band featuring current and ex members of the SEDATIVES, STEVE ADAMYK BAND, LAST COMMUNION and MOTHER'S CHILDREN. Combining elements of early-90s Lookout-era punk (Green Day, Monsula, Samiam, Cringer) with a prominent 70s/80s UK influence, Year Zero effectively crams three decades of punk into one digestible mass for the ears. If you like any of the aformentioned bands, or bands like the Replacements, Husker Du, the Jam or the Buzzcocks, you’ll dig this.
