Emphasis – Gliding Over All CD (Geenger Records)
The best thing about throwing back in time, when it comes to music, is the fact that a lot of recordings are worth checking out once again. There are literally piles of good music out there ready to be discovered, and perhaps some of them haven’t received well-deserved attention by the broader auditorium at the…

Trigger Cut – Rogo CD
It would be ridiculous to talk about the contemporary noise rock scene and not to mention Trigger Cut. This German trio tends to deliver nothing but a premium noise rock to the admirers of this characteristic sound, thanks to Ralph Schaarschmidt, a noise rock veteran who previously played in a Buzz Rodeo. After his departure…

Maines – Spring CD EP
It’s been a while since we covered a post-punk group on our pages, but on the other hand, Maines are not just another regular post-punk band that exploits melancholic aesthetics, repetitiously explored by the countless groups before. Rather than that, Maines explore several genres to illustrate the quite characteristic sonic imagery, more complex than one…

Harker – No Discordance LP (Various Labels)
Harker is a British punk rock gem, cleverly hidden on the underground scene. At least, that’s my impression when I stumbled upon their music for the first time. There’s something about their sound that forces me to spin their tunes over and over again. This terrific quartet delivers premium punk rock since 2014, and each…

Death Of Youth – Some Demons Never Die CD (Various Labels)
Death Of Youth are familiar faces in the underground circles and certainly not strangers to these pages. I previously wrote an article about their earlier recording Suburban Dystopia, released ona 10″ vinyl record a while ago by Engineer Records. This time, Engineer Records teamed up with Sonicslap Records and Disillusioned Records to release a collection…

Somerset Thrower – Paint My Memory LP (Triple-B Records / Dead Broke Rekerds)
I’ve been familiar with this band for years when their debut album came out a couple of years ago but never gave them a proper review. Somerset Thrower is an interesting quartet emanating from Long Island, NY that unquestionably deserves your full attention. Besides their outstanding debut named Godspeed, published by Dead Broke Rekerds, the…

Dogleg – Melee LP (Triple Crown Records)
Here’s another impressive release from the list of the records that went under my radar during 2020. For some reason, the album artwork looked familiar to me at the moment, but I am quite sure I never stumbled upon this remarkable piece of work. You know that feeling when something appears so familiar to you,…

YON – Order Of Violence LP (Various Labels)
YON is a screamo/post-hardcore group from Dresden, Germany. The group is a well-established name on the underground scene, but it seems these guys are keeping a low profile on social media and maintaining the incognito status while solely focusing on visual and audio aesthetics. Since their formation, YON released a solid list of recordings such…

Screaming At Traffic – I Don’t Like Sports LP (Little Rocket Records)
Screaming At Traffic is a punk rock quartet emanating from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The group operates for quite some time, and last year they published a debut full-length record named I Don’t Like Sports on vinyl for Little Rocket Records. Previously, the band released a single Broken Teeth and a self-titled EP. Later on, the…

Entropy – Liminal LP (Crazysane Records)
Entropy is one of those post-hardcore groups you surely don’t want to let sneak out unnoticed under your listening radar. No matter how much similar groups you heard during your lifetime, their outstanding debut full-length recording Liminal undoubtfully deserves your utmost attention. The group started as a solo project by Hans Frese, who’s been musically…
-
Outside – Green In You LP (Head2Wall Records)
Outside are back with another full-length recording that will surprise fans of post-hardcore with a slightly different approach to this specific genre. It’s been a while since this Northwest Ohio based trio released their self-titled full-length album, published by Clegg Records and Time Will Tell Records. Nevertheless, the band bursts with such specific energy since…

City Of Industry – False Flowers LP (Amerikan Aesthetics Records)
City Of Industry are making a proper comeback with another compelling release. For those who somehow missed this band, City Of Industry is a darkened hardcore trio originating from Seattle, Washington. False Flowers represents their third full-length album, released by Amerikan Aesthetics Records a couple of days ago. Besides this material, City Of Industry also…
