(review) The Getaway – Left For Dead (People Of Punk Rock Records)
In 2005 Canadian punks The Getaway flew to Los Angeles to record an album for Kung Fu Records. For some reason this album was not released until now, when People Of Punk Rock Records treated us with this time travel jewel in form of this little punk rock record. These 10 songs offer us pure and no holds barred melodic punk rock from Toronto. While listening to this band, they remind me a lot of Face To Face, being harsh riffs but at the same time melodic. Vocals are great, a bit snotty but fit perfectly to the songwriting craft. Backing vocal harmonies and melodies are perfect, just here to make you smile and believe in punk rock and expressing your emotions with music that you love and believe in. Songs like I Hope You Feel The Same, Rescue Me, Left For Dead are my personal favorites, you will just have to discover yours. So, if you love your punk rock melodic, energetic and having heart and soul, this record is the right one for you. It is also a document of an era in our scene that is passed fifteen years ago, but fortunately we can relive it through nice music.
New punk rock supergroup: Montreal’s R!OT (Members of The Mahones, The Ataris, The Brains) debut video – Hit ‘Em Where It Hurts!
R!OT is Montreal’s new Punk Rock supergroup, composed of Sean Ryan (Irish Nails, The Mahones) on vocals and guitar, Danny Duke (The Ataris, The Queers, Ripcordz)) on bass and vocals and Guillaume Lauzon (The Brains, Gutter Demons, People and Space) on drums. ‘Hit ‘Em Where It Hurts’ is the band’s debut single and video release, on their own independent label Chester Records.
The band formed at a music addicts meeting during the Covid pandemic. All three degenerates decided while in the confines of a world without music to fully live out their sonic addictions, forming a band that no responsible mother would ever let her children listen to. Combining a wide variety of influences, R!OT will be releasing an EP in the very near future.
To support the new single, R!OT will be touring a quick run of shows this fall for Halloween:
Oct 28: The Mansion, Kingston, OntarioOct 29: Living Colour, Toronto, OntarioOct 30: Upper Space, Niagara Falls, Ontario
