Time for another heartfelt and heartwarming piece of music as two frontmen of their respectable bands team up for their solo split e.p.

Nathan Gray(BoySetsFire) and Jesse Barnett(Stick To Your Guns) released a split e.p. with End Hits Records. The e.p. features six songs, three each. Jesse Barnett´s side is stripped down acoustic heartfelt melodic emotional travel to Amsterdam, ode to love with Hang Your Love(my favorite on Jesse´s part of the e.p.) and musical yearning of Stay With Me.

Nathan Gray´s side is made of three songs recorded with Pete Steinkopf(The Bouncing Souls). For me his side is a bit better, because I am a great fan of his solo work and his songs.  Enough, Find me and Brighter are just masterpieces as I drown in darkness, light, beauty, melody and sorrow listening to Nathan´s voice accompanied by smart and orchestral song structures. Love it! Nice e.p. by two superb singers and frontmen from today´s hardcore punk scene.

Wow! There are very little physical made zines left out there, so every effort to create a new one in the scene must be cherished with happiness and I am happy that new zine from Pula, Croatia is in the scene!

As the name says, 3.Generacija meaning Third generation in Croatian, the zine is made by the young punks, new in the scene and it is heartwarming to see the kids doing still hand made copy paste punk as fuck zines like this one.

Number one has interview with Sake, some non music thinking by the authors, gig reports and it is not long, but it is done from the heart. Number two features an interview with Kani Bastardi, an article about Fabrizio De Andre, gig report and Fried Brain info. The third number is in the works right now, so support the guys and order some zines and help the scene. Write to: lukasardoz@gmail.com
