    Booze & Glory – The Reggae Sessions Vol. 2. 12″ EP (Pirates Press Records)

    Here’s another good release, recently released by Pirates Press Records. I was pleasantly surprised when this vinyl arrived at Thoughts Words Action headquarters. Since 2009, Booze & Glory paved their path to punk stardom, and their music is widely known to the international streetpunk crowd. There’s more than a good reason for their success. In…

  • Los Fastidios – XXX The Number Of The Beat LP (KOB Records / Fire And Flames Music / Potencial Hardcore)

    Los Fastidios – XXX The Number Of The Beat LP (KOB Records / Fire And Flames Music / Potencial Hardcore)

    Los Fastidios celebrate their 30th anniversary, so what’s a better way to celebrate than with a brand new album. I have to admit that I was excited about it as soon as I saw the news in my inbox. It’s been a while since I received any news about Los Fastidios, and I was excited…

  • V/A – …And Out Come The Lawsuits LP (Sell The Heart Records / Lavasocks Records)

    V/A – …And Out Come The Lawsuits LP (Sell The Heart Records / Lavasocks Records)

    Everyone loves Rancid. I never stumbled upon a punk rocker who said he’s not into some Rancid albums. Favorite picks differ because of personal preferences, but the impact of this legendary group is notable all over the place, and it seems it even intensifies over the years. The release I would like to talk about…

  • T-Killas – Awareness CD (Fire And Flames Music)

    T-Killas – Awareness CD (Fire And Flames Music)

    We had some ska-punk included on these pages a couple of days ago, so let’s continue in the same manner. Here’s another outstanding record from a Fire And Flames catalog, released a year ago on vinyl and compact disc. I was surprised when I realized this material came out a year ago. For some reason,…

  • Resaka Sonora – Frekuenzia CD (Fire And Flames Music)

    Resaka Sonora – Frekuenzia CD (Fire And Flames Music)

    Here’s another tremendous music release from a recent Fire And Flames Music batch. I rarely have a chance to write reviews for ska bands, but those politically charged ska-punk bands are even rarer on our pages. Still, when releases like these arrive at our headquarters, they always sound incredible. That’s the case with this most…

  • Inner Terrestrials – Heart Of The Free LP (Various Labels)

    Inner Terrestrials – Heart Of The Free LP (Various Labels)

    Today, I have the privilege to review the latest full-length material by living legends. There’s no way you got involved with the British anarcho-punk scene and missed Inner Terrestrials. The group roams the underground scene for nearly three decades, went through several lineup changes, toured Europe many times, released five brilliant albums, a handful of…

  • Victory Kid – Discernation LP (SBÄM Records)

    Victory Kid – Discernation LP (SBÄM Records)

    We’re all witnessing a pop-punk revival, and cool new bands are popping from every part of the globe. Luckily, most of these new bands are sounding incredibly good, and not only do they’re sound good, but they’re offering some new moves rarely seen/heard before. With all these revivals popping out in recent years, the key…

  • Authority Zero – Ollie Ollie Oxen Free LP

    Authority Zero – Ollie Ollie Oxen Free LP

    This band doesn’t need any introduction. Authority Zero roams the melodic punk rock scene for decades, and their music ages like a fine wine. Each following album offers even more improvements, surprises, potential punk rock hits, and they’re certainly one of those bands that are not allowing any mistakes during the recording process. Their impressive…

  • Radikal Dub Kolektiv – Vinyl Debts 12″ EP (PDV Records)

    Radikal Dub Kolektiv – Vinyl Debts 12″ EP (PDV Records)

    Recently, I wrote an article about Hellness Centar, a third full-length album by Radikal Dub Kolektiv. For those who somehow missed my recent post, Radikal Dub Kolektiv is a phenomenal dub group from Zagreb, Croatia. The band operates since 2002 and pretty much keeps it active as much as possible. PDV Records recently announced a…

  • Radikal Dub Kolektiv – Hellness Centar LP (PDV Records)

    Radikal Dub Kolektiv – Hellness Centar LP (PDV Records)

    It’s good to occasionally get back in time, especially if it’s about great music. Today, I would like to talk a little bit more about one of the finest dub bands that emanate from a Balkan region. Radikal Dub Kolektiv are not strangers on a local and international scene, but somehow I felt these guys…

    Justin Freely – What A Time To Be Alive

    Justin Freely is an Australian indie artist based in Melbourne who gained experience while performing with various local musicians over the years. His debut solo recording came as a result of short hiatus from performing with musicians such as Mr. Jimmy, Leah Senior, and Foggy Notion. Justin decided to gather skillful musicians for the recording…

    Flying Vipers – Dub Fader Cuts 7” (Happy People Records)

    Flying Vipers are not wasting time at all. After their critically acclaimed full-length recording Cuttings that’s been released sometime in 2020, the group is coming back with a brand new 7” record called Dub Fader Cuts. The publishing of this material is scheduled for March 21st, and it carries a couple of marvelous dub compositions,…
