Portland’s d-beat crust punks DÖDLAGE here on cassette tape from Drop Out Records. A release for those who missed the vinyl releases. It starts with the slow, gloomy and sludgy intro called “Sanctuary Rites” but you’d be wrong thinking this is the mood of the whole release. “Internal Crisis” starts and the d-beat mayhem kicks off. Most songs...

We are pleased to announce that our second release, catalogued PROP 002, will be by the one and only UK’s thrash punk d-beat legends, HELLKRUSHER. We have taken steps to revive the original “Wasteland” recording that happened in 1989 which the band didn’t like and decided to record it again but in a different studio. No one has heard the...
HELLKRUSHER – Wasteland Unreleased LP
PROP 002 Not a lot of people know, but there are actually two recordings of “Wasteland”, the first of which was scrapped for not being up to standard back in the day. The studio was shit and the guitarist was on the run from the police. The recording itself hasn’t been heard outside the band apart from a few close...
“There’s always a cause that’s worth fighting for”. Interview with HELLKRUSHER.
They ain’t no fucking rock stars. They ain’t no fucking rip off. They care about what they do and they also care about you, too. 29 years have passed since the recording of their first record, called “Wasteland” and 29 years later they give you “Human Misery” released on Ruin Nation Records. With numerous line-up changes, various ups and downs,...
BRAIN ANGUISH release a new track.
Angus and Brian plus their good old friend, the drum machine, made their way thru snowy Scottish roads to finally meet up in a secret location known to only three of them (just off A939, near the village called Fodderletter) to record another BRAIN ANGUISH anarcho punk song. This time you are greeted by a female voice reciting pastor Martin...
When VICTORY is OURS.
Compilation records are usually tricky. I am sure your collection boasts jewels and mistakes in one box. To produce a great compilation record that will become an instant classic requires skill and motivation. I am more than sure that in case of “The Dreadful Symphonies” the author had both. SKILL Being a guitarist in a well-known death core band...

(review) POCHWALONE – Koncert LP
POCHWALONE are your top choice when you are looking for musical and lyrical trips far beyond the usual everyday noise you are surrounded with, deep into the heart of independent women’s acting and thinking. They are a trio: bass, drums and vocals. And you do not miss guitars or anything like that. The rhythm section is absolutely enough, especially that...
ORPHANAGE NAMED EARTH – Re-evolve 2LP

Debut album from romantic crust band from Poland. ‘Re-evolve’, is a story of romantic thinking about the world of peace, respect for human and animal life and earth liberation, meeting the brutality of metal, crust d-beat and harsh but atmospheric guitars. Lyrically, the band touches important sociological issues evolving around...
“Age in itself is an attitude. If you feel and act old, then you will be old”. Interview with Brian Curran.
DISAFFECT, QUARANTINE, DEBRIS, RUIN, SCATHA, BRAIN ANGUISH – these are the names you are definitely familiar with. These are the names that have shaped punk for decades now. These are the names that co-define punk from Scotland, along with other fine bands. And they all have one man in common and I talked to this man about his bands, their...
(review) Sub Alert – Obekväma Människor EP
If you see 8 tracks on a 7”EP and the address is Sweden you know what to expect. It’s a hardcore blast, with maniac vocals, heavy guitar and swedish style solos. Anti-Cimex here, MOB47 there, a splash of PROTEST BENGT. Mixed by Kenko from DISCHANGE/MEANWHILE. Good references and very good punk indeed. Check them out! I haven’t heard a bad...
(review) FAMINE/SATANIC MALFUNCTIONS – split EP
I will start with SATANIC MALFUNCTIONS who made quite an impact on me when I was a teenager. Formed in the late 80’s I managed to hear them when they’d been long gone. They seemed to me more American style of noisy hardcore, than the British one. For whatever reason but it appealed to me a lot. And since they...
