Kade and the Outcasts is something of an enigma. With the release of the single, “CRISIS”, the project sounds like it is at the forefront of a new punk expansion into sonic abrasion and electronic leanings. There’s plenty of aggression, replete with dirty bass synth riffing, and stream-of-conscience lyrics belted forth in screams that are […]

Steve has managed to coin a more distinctive, anti-conformist sound […]
The Bawl Slant – “Blisters” – an uncontrollable adrenaline rush!
On their album, “Blisters”, The Bawl Slant shows a great balance moving between heavy sludgy riffs and groove-laden stoner vibes, as well as blunt punk bombast, which they decorate with mellifluous anthemic-styled vocals. The interplay between the members is perhaps one of the albums strengths as the band are a well-organized unit. This album is […]

“La Brea Avenue” will endear the Fornicators to a much wider audience!
Operating from the east Coast of Sweden since 2001, the punk and ska influences on the Fornicators are countless, but there’s nothing which feels stolen from other artists. It maintains a core of originality. Having played over a 1000 shows across the planet, and released a sizable body of recorded work, the band has found […]
