Bar Tape – Dublin, Leinster, Ireland Today, I am excited to be involved with the video premiere of Bar Tape and ‘Take Heed x St. Peter’s College Drop-Out’ ahead of the Dublin four-piece unleashing their latest salvo of organic, writhing and raucously gritty melodic Punk.

Full NutritionHummer – Warrington, England, United Kingdom Hummer and ‘How Did I Get Here?’ arrived at the end of a year that will forever be substantiated by the latter moniker. That and this year so far, how irritatingly shit! Moving on, then. Who are Warrington’s Hummer? Well, the answer can be…
Full NutritionForgotten Names – London, England, United Kingdom “Forgotten Names and Their Debut Single” is a headline itself the product of yet another arduous lockdown project. I shouldn’t need to extrapolate on that for more than a few token words. That said, as many of you in bands or in the…
Full NutritionMuch The Same – Chicago, Illinois, USA Undisputedly, the hardest part of the interview process is ascertaining a title.

Full NutritionNo Lights – San Francisco, California, USA The words – No Lights – Stay Awake/June Bug recently appeared in my cavernous inbox.

Full NutritionFilthy Hearts – Denver, Colorado, USA Filthy Hearts and The Debut Beyond Repair. What to say before we dive in? The band have been teasing us quite readily since their 2016 inception with the I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead (Inside) EP. The band’s emotive 90’s Punk cascade of life-songs was confined…
Full NutritionSame As You – Montreal, Québec, Canada Montreal has an excellent Punk-Rock output and as does its home province of Québec, a land itself perpetually producing an excellent Punk music crop as a general rule.
