I met Ray Carlisle at this years Punk Rock Holiday when he was playing ball in front of the stage in the hot afternoon hours with his kid Milo. Later that night they delivered mindblowing fantastic gig, that will stay in my memory for as long as I live. This seven inch is in fact the split e.p. of Teenage Bottlerocket and Ray´s kid Milo´s one man band Human Robots. Both bands provided two songs with Teenage Bottlerocket having two songs Everything To Me and Olivia Goes To Bolivia delivering mindblowing pop punk Ramonescore like we are used to from this fantastic band. Human Robots´side delivers two songs Step On ´Em All and I Want To Hang Out With You. The latter being a bit better, but it is the fine effort from this young man and if he continues that way, the future is bright for him, because he will for sure make killer music one day.

Taking cues from the likes of Neck Deep, All Time Low and Blink 182, their debut album is packed with soul filling pop-hooks and sing-alongs. The album’s first video single ‘Apologies‘ premiered on ‘Wall of Sound’ Magazine, Fraction Radio and featured on ‘Pop-Punks not Dead’ and ‘New Punk Tracks’ by Spotify along with Triple j’s Short.Fast.Loud. The video for the single also premiered on Ghost Killer Entertainment’s site on 19th July.
Northern California’s punk rock cult favorites Tsunami Bomb are back with ‘The Spine That Binds,’ their first new LP in 15 years.
The LP, which was produced by the band and mixed by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Joyce Manor, Jeff Rosenstock), will be released on November 8th via Alternative Tentacles.
The first single (“The Hathors”) is now streaming everywhere.
Vocalist Kate Jacobi says, “The story of “The Hathors” is haunting and sad as much as defiant. In the journey of learning to be happy with who you are, there are those that won’t believe in you and people who will be let down with who you become. It’s about turning down the voices in your head of everyone that said “you can’t” and silencing the doubt, knowing that it will never fully go away.”
‘The Spine That Binds’ will be released digitally and on limited edition colored vinyl.

Honing their skills of melody while being more in-your-face and more aggressive than ever, they conjure a dark journey of discovery with each track. Originally formed in 1998, and disbanding after many member changes in 2005, TSUNAMI BOMB reformed at the end of 2015.
