Time for a band from this region, namely Napalm Job from Belgrade, Serbia. This band consists of well known faces within street punk scene, having played or playing in Miki Pirs, Birtija, Trula Romansa, PogonBgd, Trnje…
The new e.p. contains 6 songs, one being cover of Zabranjeno Pušenje, one having music by The 4 Skins but lyrics by Napalm Job. The music of Napalm Job is street punk/oi just the way it was meant to be, with lyrics in Serbian language about everyday life, punk, struggling to survive in corrupted and robbed state, similar to problems we have here in Croatia, so I can totally relate to the lyrics these guys are talking about. Vocals are great, screaming angry, yet fit perfectly to the songs that are fast, energetic, just the way real street punk oi should be. My favorites are To nije Oi! and Nema sjaja. Great release, so have a listen and support your scene and the cause worldwide!

Back Garden Light are finally back under the light! Today marks the release of Such a Shame, the fourth single from the French band’s first album Back Garden Light out on February 26th. The infectious pop- punk song is the follow-up to Hitting the Road that came out early 2021 as well as two singles out since 2018 “Jumping Fences” and “The Right Side”. This is what the band has to say about the catchy new track: “We call it the hit among us because it’s probably the one with the most hit-like elements, and it’s been the subject of a music video with our usual Van Espen team. The song is in ternary which gives it an indecent groove for a pop punk song! The topic is quite classic, we call out TV fans or people easily influenced by the media. Special mention for the pre-break bell which was influenced by Futurama”
