“None of us are weekend punk rockers”. Interview with WARWOUND.
There is not much of an introduction needed for WARWOUND anymore. It is no secret SANCTUS PROPAGANDA are die hard fans of the band, but who wouldn’t, when you get musicians of your favourite bands put together into one. It was time to finally ask some questions to Damian, Stevie and Rat. Enjoy. Note: the...

“The typical Swede works as little as possible so they have time to tour with their DIY punk band all over the world.” Interview with MYTERI.
MYTERI have been around for quite a while so you should be familiar with them by now. The new LP called “Ruiner” out on Alerta Antifascista shows a mature band with a great sound. Being a hard working touring band with two full-lengths on heir account, thousands of kilometers driven, it is time to talk...
(review) GAY PANIC DEFENCE – Snowflake Powerviolence Vol 1
Scottish queer punks have delivered their big boy record. Still not sure what format this wil be available on but tape is on the list for sure. Violence doesn’t help but power violence does, at least for them, to get their message across. Prepare yourself for a 10 minute noise assault on your ears with...
DEAD RHYTHM EASTER FEST closing the line-up

(review) MANTA BIROSTRIS – Cursed Eye of the Prophet CD
When a release like this hits your mailbox you know that the world is a terrible place to live. You know that the people who pull the strings are not to be trusted to say the least, and that they are beats. Whether god exists, it’s up to you, but when you are faced with...
(review) NACHTHEXEN – Disco Creep EP
Early 80s (that’s previous century) brought HIT PARADE. The punk band that decided to play no distortion and noise – instead they took on “disco” tunes, pumped them with highly political lyrics and got their message across via CRASS RECORDS platform. Fast forward do late naughties (that’s this century) and you get NACHTHEXEN. The all-female...
(review) EXTINCTION OF MANKIND – Storm of Resentment LP
EXTINCTION OF MANKIND have been around since 1992, so they are veterans of the UK punk. They started when others finished and when time passed (20 something years) and I get the chance to hear their fourth upcoming full length album, I realise they are one of the very few who are true to what...
“We don’t know any other lifestyle”. Interview with BRATAKUS.
BRATAKUS are Breagha on guitar and vocals and Onnagh on bass + a drum machine. They are sisters (Breagha and Onnagh, not the drum machine) and they have brought a lot of fresh and positive energy into the scene. Coming from a remote whisky village in Scotland they are serious about their beliefs, they mean...
“Less is more when it comes to riffs”. Interview with MORNE.
MORNE has been around since 2005, so chances are you are very well familiar with this Boston-based four piece. They play heavy and atmospheric mix of doom and crust, if you like, and their records always deliver a certain dose of emotions and reflections. Having released three studio albums, the band concentrated on playing live...
(review) BRATAKUS – Ghouls To The Front EP
October 31st brought another stupid terror assault in NYC where inncocent lives were lost. October 31st also brought the release of the all new BRATAKUS EP. The quick and responsive attack from those two vegan straight edge girls from Scotland. And although it is packed with two spooky halloween tribute songs you get the feeling...
(review) PHRENETIX – Fear CD
Thrash metal on SANCTUS PROPAGANDA! Yes! And there are very good reasons for that. PHRENETIX are a fairly young band operating within the frames of the DIY and underground thrash and punk scene and their approach to music and lifestyle suggests PHRENETIX is just more than music and headbanging. They come from Vilnius, Lithuania and...
(review) ANCST/KING APATHY – split 12”EP
ANCST and KING APATHY meeting room. Berlin 2017. ANCST: So, the split, what are we going to do? KING APATHY: Two songs each? ANCST: Yeah, why not? One shorter and the other one longer? KING APATHY: Sounds cool. Like 3 minutes and 7 minutes? ANCST: Yep. Let’s make sure both bands start one song with...
(review) CALM THE FIRE / THE DEAD GOATS – split 12”EP
These two Polish bands are at the moment top league when it comes to bridging some gaps between punk and metal. CALM THE FIRE take no prisoners. They blast through your head with brutal crusty guitars, mincing drums and very high octane tempo. You will find many elements in their music, but you will have...
