(record review)THE BENNIES-“Natural Born Chillers”

Australian scene never ceases to amaze me and THE BENNIES from Melbourne are one more band I discovered and fell in love with immediately.

This is their new album and I had a privilege to listen to it and review it for this webzine. The album contains 8 songs of party music. Meaning melodic punk with anthem choruses for singalong, garnished with a lot of reggae parts and a lot of harmony on vocals and although it still snows a bit here when I write this review, I already feel the Sun warming  on my face and making me happy and making all the troubles far and bringing smile back to my face. The absolute highlights on this album are “Dreamkillers”, “Apathetic Revolution” and the title track. The clever use of psychodelic miniatures, reggae and melodies make this record a keeper! Nice one!

(record review)AIMLESS AGAIN-“2020 Future Punks”

Aimless Again is a Punk Rock group from Port Jefferson Station NY Formed in 2007.This is their new album and it was time for me to review it for this zine.

The album is made of 8 songs plus intro, interlude and outro. Aimless Again play loud, melodic and gnarley punkrock like it was meant to be on the hot streets and hotter nights. You cant but pogo listening to “Shredder” or “Rejuvenate”. Personally, I like my punkrock to be more faster, upbeat and more hardcore than punkrock. In my humble opinion, the songs on this record are a bit too slow for my taste. For me the best song on this record is for sure “Turn & Run” being a true punkrock anthem for the live gigs. As I understand, these guys are unsigned, so labels, if you read this review, please sign these guys so they can further provide us with some quality punkrock.
