Blue Youth are one of the undiscovered jewels of the underground. These guys play noisy punk with a lot of nervous riffs, apocalyptic screaming vocals and complex song structures creating their vision of noise hardcore. There are 7 songs on this record out with Zegema Beach Records and if you are a fan of the more brutal side of punk with even some screamo and sludge thrown into the song structures, then this record is the right one forya. This is crushing and unrelenting noisecore sometimes reminding me of Deadguy in a way, but maybe it is only me hearing that. But, under all the heaviness, there are some subtle layers of melody therein discovering the punkrock roots and hearts of this fine band. Recommended songs: The Power, The Past.

South Class Veterans are relatively new band and this is their debut full length out with Demons Run Amok Entertainment. The band comes from New Jersey and they formed in 2017., but the members are in no way strangers to the punk hardcore scene, growing up going to shows and playing in various bands of that area. South Class Veterans released 4 song e.p. but this is their debut full length album. And what an album! This album contains 10 songs of full blooded American street punk/oi with some hardcore influences. This record reminds of the best days Bruisers, Anti Heroes and similar bands, meaning street smart lyrics, anthemic choruses, harsh yet catchy guitar melodies and these songs just make you wanna pump your fist in the air like crazy. For me, favorite songs on the album are Lies, Shortcomings, Repass and Those Nights, but the whole album is just fantastic piece of streetpunk easy to listen to under cold street lights and smelling the how city concrete and swilling a beer or two.
