Here’s another one from the “digging through the Geenger Records crates” series. In the past couple of weeks, we introduced so many punk rock bands on our pages, so I thought this release would fit nicely on the bill. Getaway is a debut by Sake, a Croatian punk rock quintet that emanates from Pula. This… Read More Sake – Getaway CD (Geenger Records)
Today, I would like to introduce an outstanding group that shakes the boundaries of several genres altogether with its music. Their sound spans over so many genres that it makes it so difficult for us journalists to count them all in one sitting, and that’s probably a good thing because this material deserves repetitious consumption… Read More The Chris Ruben Band – Madness On Repeat
There’s a lot of things going on in the music world right now that I can barely cope with all brand new releases. The tremendous recordings are popping out from every possible direction, and all of them are pretty much good. However, there is a decent amount of bands that are taking things on an… Read More Divine Lorraine – Divine EP
It’s been a while since we had an artist like this one on our pages. There are not so many musicians out there who’re merging classic punk rock with rock’n’roll music. I mean, there is a decent amount of artists who’re exploring these aesthetics, but not in the way Samas do it. Something lurks in… Read More Samas – S/T EP
The contemporary music scene offers so many brilliant groups that seek the attention of the broader auditorium, but somehow most of them remain unheard and never gain well-deserved recognition. It seems like this quarantine caused by the pandemic gave a lot of spare time to musicians to finish their recordings, but most of them released… Read More Blue Coffee – In And Out
Sun Smash Palace is one of those bands with an interesting background story. The group comprises musicians from Germany, Brazil, Canada, and South Korea, who altogether lived in Seoul, South Korea, at the time. The passion for music gathered these individuals who also shared a similar interest in music. Each one of them played in… Read More Sun Smash Palace – Sun Smash Palace
Before I even start talking about this band, I would like to ask a couple of simple questions. Do you love loud music? Do you love rock’n’roll? Do you love rock’n’roll infused punk rock? Do you love rock’n’roll infused punk rock with occasional explorations into deathpunk, hardcore punk, power pop, and garage rock? If the… Read More The Boatsmen – Versus The Boatsmen LP (Ghost Highway Records / Spaghetty Town Records)
It’s impossible to talk about anything psychobilly, rockabilly, rock’n’roll, and punk rock and avoid the renowned name in the game such as The Meteors. Since their inception in 1980, these pioneers of the genre paved the way for the hordes of psychobilly/rockabilly musicians and served as inspiration for countless contemporary artists. The Meteors are also… Read More The Meteors – Skull N Bones CD (Cleopatra Records)
I never trusted promo sheets. I always felt like the information enclosed in promo sheets spoils a listening experience. What’s good about brand new music if everything is detailly explained in the promo sheet, right? Shatten is one of those groups that escapes all the straightforward cliches, explanations, and classifications into a singular music genre.… Read More Shatten – Shatten LP (Rookie Records)
It’s difficult to talk about anything related to punk rock and avoid the name such as Suzi Moon. Her name has become a trademark as soon as she joined Civet, where she established herself as a brilliant singer-songwriter. Civet gave her an opportunity to record a couple of albums for legendary Hellcat Records and share… Read More Suzi Moon – Call The Shots 12″ (Pirates Press Records)
Rock’n’roll is not dead! The living proof is laying out there on the ever-expanding music scene, which delivers brand new recordings by very talented artists on a regular basis. Even the brand new bands are popping out of nowhere every day, and the majority of them sound like they have decades of consecutive performances under… Read More Blast Bomb – Rock’n’Roll Junkie 10″ EP (Undead Artists Records)
The Canarys are a powerful duo emanating from New Orleans that took an interesting route while recording the debut album. These individuals decided to write a conceptual album about human connections, but the circumstances allowed these musicians to spend only a day in the studio before New Orleans shut down for Covid. Therefore, The Canarys… Read More The Canarys – Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid
