Direct Hit! – #5

Direct Hit! hail from Milwaukee and are surely the most exciting pop punk band around today. They self-release their music, play totally fun and awesome tunes and have got the perfect “fuck you, get pumped” attitude I love to see in guys that...
NOFX – The Longest EP

While waiting to release a new album (of which there is no news yet), NOFX are teasing their fans with the second release filled with rare, b-sides and previously unreleased songs – after the compilation “45 or 46 Songs That Weren’t...
Donots – The Long Way Home

Have you ever been inspired or influenced by the weather while listening to music? To me, it always happens. When it’s sunny, Itend to listen to positive, happy and melodic power pop. When it’s rainy, I tend to listen to darker music. And...
Good Riddance – Capricorn One: Singles & Rarities

Dead To Me – African Elephants

Dead To Me did’t hit my attention with their debut album, “Cuban Ballerina”. Quite possibly because on a first listen the songs on it just sounded generic pop punk rock. Quite possibly because the “don’t judge a book by its...
Strike Anywhere – Iron Front

Strike Anywhere are back with their fourth full album, this time on Bridge 9 Records. After leaving Fat Wreck Chords, with whom the Richmond guys released their lowest album “Dead FM”, the new work “Iron Front” is surely the band’s...
