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!

The good people of A-F Records gave us this great new small split between Ship Thieves(Hot Water Music) and Reconciler(ex Less Than Jake, Gunmoll). This is a very small single containing one new song from each band. Ship Thieves and their song Nothing Now is really great piece of melancholic melodic punk rock, Southern style, offering melody, kinda sadness and great singing and hum along parts which I love very much having listened to it couple of times in a row. Reconciler sounds a bit similar, having beautiful vocals, great song and such sweet chorus to the song. I really enjoyed both songs on this epic little release.

Zurrapa are punk band from town of Viseu, Portugal and have been in the scene since 2017 and released four records, two came out in 2020. This one contains 14 tracks but there are some samples and spoken word between songs. The music of Zurrapa can be described as no holds barred, no bullshit, simple and fast punk with some roll and hardcore influences in the song structures. Lyrics are in Portuguese so I don´t really understand what they are singing about, but music speaks enough for itself. I love how Ghost Riders In The Sky cover sounds in Portuguese, really nice. I love that language and would love to learn it one day. Songs on this record are mainly fast, vocals are harsh yet melodic and fit perfectly to songs. So, if you love your punk fast, energetic, go grab this one. I am sure you will not regret it.
