WAR//PLAGUE from Minneapolis showed their latest face on a split 7” with WARWOUND, which in my opinion is the most brilliant piece of metal crust available in the US at the moment. With 2 LPs and a split LP with Police Bastard on the menu plus the latest split 7” with AXEGRINDER they are my...
People are what they are, You have to learn to accept that, And you have to learn to accept society’s rules, If you don’t follow the rules, bad things happen… Yeah, right. What a load of bollocks. And what a great way to open a great record. WARWOUND prove they break the rules and make the rules at...
WAR//PLAGUE, a Minneapolis based crust punks will have their first cassette released on 4th Sept. The cassette will include a selection of 21 tracks chosen from all W//P releases, so it is going to be both, a great introduction to the band for those of you who don’t know them well, and a nice blast...
When you do a project, when you are creating something from nothing, people ask themselves this question a lot of times: can you create something totally new, that hasn’t been created yet in the world we live in today? We always think that everything has been created and invented, so whatever you do is going...
If you ever wondered what people from SEDITION and DISAFFECT are up to – here you ago. Angus and Brian made friends with a drum machine, called themeselves BRAIN ANGUISH, used anarcho punk sauce we all know from their previous bands and they prove they are still angry. Check them out here and watch this...

MORROW debuted with “Covenant of Teeth” album on Alerta Antifascista, Chaos Rural Records and Halo Of Flies in 2016. You can’t ignore the fact that MORROW is yet another project of Alex and his friends (FALL OF EFRAFA, CARNIST, LIGHT BEARER) so you kind of know what to expect musically and visually. But you may...
It’s a great little record, this. Firstly because it features two great and very active bands and secondly because it is packed with lots of punk emotions, starting from sound and lyrics, finishing on a beautiful artwork done by Andy Lefton from W//P. Now, this just proves that a white cover on a punk record...
SURYA takes no shortcuts. To reach their audience they use many methods but one: vocals. No, you will not find lyrics in SURYA, at least on their latest release “Apocalypse A.D.” Yet, they are challenging you with animal, earth and human liberation message. I talked with band members, Bartek and Greg on guitars and Raquel...
POZOGA is a new band to come out of Dublin. Consisting of four members from all over the world they play old school hardcore with great vocals. Their mini demo on Bandcamp plays their own track and a cover by an old Basque band RIP. Check them out now, becasue we hear debut EP is...
If you ever wondered how a punk record sounds with no vocals in it, here you go – SURYA will show you. But before we get there…SURYA are a four-piece from London who paint pictures with their music. If you decide not to sing, you need to think of ways how to get your message...
I am sure you also have got a band from your local punk scene on your mind which years ago released little but a mind blowing material and lasted shortly. This is HOSTILITY for me. Started as ANTI HOSTILITY in the beginning of their operation playing chaotic and fast punk to later rename themselves to...
When I came across this exquisite box set I was right in the middle of Italian heat in Florence. No better place to learn that your most favourite Italian hardcore punk band was honoured such a collection. And this is a collection of everything NEGAZIONE ever made. Plus more. This release is the genious work...
I’ve always had and always will have appreciation and respect for those punk artists who choose to convey their message through more artistic approach where different methodologies are applied including storytelling. This is MORROW as in TOMORROW. And indeed, lyrically Alex (-ex FALL OF EFRAFA just to start with) takes us forward to the year...
Do you remember a band from Ireland (I think!), called F.U.A.L. and their only full length called Fuck Up and Live! ? Released in 1989 it was a blast of melodic anarcho punk with female fronted vocals. If you haven’t heard them, it is time to make it up. Because, BARAKA FACE JUNTA is a...
