The Dead Krazukies release new single ‘Captain Crust’ on May 12
– the band from France shows new nuances in their music with a heavy hitting mid-tempo song.

Hossegor. A singalong choir, mid-tempo almost hard rock beats are not what is very typical for the melodic-skate punk band The Dead Krazukies. Nevertheless ‘Captain Crust’ is as heavy as can be and such a powerful melodic track that will leave every listener impressed by the broad spectrum of the band’s sound. In addition the scratchy yet extremely powerful voice of singer Maider makes The Dead Krazukies kind of the Powermetal of Punkrock.

‘Captain Crust’ will be released digitally on May 12 with a video coming a few days later!

About The Dead Krazukies:
Think Pennywise, Rise Against and a bit of Anti-Flag and you’ve got The Dead Krazukies! Since 2010, the band from Hossegor brings out a concentrate of catchy melodic punk, raw energy and 90’s surf and skate culture.

In 2016, their first self-produced album, ‘The Northern Belle’ was a great success and directly established the group in the European skatepunk scene. After a lot of shows and festivals, they end up in 2019 opening for the Punk in Drublic Festival with legendary Bad Religion and NOFX on the French date of the event.

In November 2020, the band released ‘Icarus’ during the pandemic through SoundSpeed Records (USA), SBAM Records (Europe) and Punk&Disorderly (Canada).  The album was a hit and became quickly sold-out.

Fueled by troubled times, the frustration of not touring and the musical path already initiated by Icarus, The Dead Krazukies is back with a brand new piece of raging tunes, ‘From the Underworld’ which release is due June 16 2023 through SBAM Records and Kicking Records.

The 10 songs, mixed by Christian Carvin and mastered by Jason Livermore at the Blasting Room, oscillate between So-Cal Punk Rock and Old School Metal with no fear to explore new territories.

At the same time surprising and bold, From The Underworld won’t leave you indifferent. The Dead Krazukies intends to defend this album on stage and take everything in its wake.

Reviews

(review) The Rumperts – ‘New Age Jesus’ (SBÄM Records)

Leave a comment

The Rumperts are in no way strangers to the pages of this zine, we covered their single taken off this album so now it is time to review the full length album that came out with SBÄM Records. The Rumperts are Austrian punk band with base in capitol Vienna. This new full length contains ten songs of melodic, yet raw punk with health y dose of hardcore punk thrown in the song structures. The lyrics deal with political side of things in Europe and world, but also through the lines reflect on personal, our little private world that each of us has. Vocals are great, angry when necessary, melodic all the time, shouted and singing, songs are catchy having such nice parts just made for singing along at gigs. My personal favorites are ‘Nazissist’, ‘Growin Old’ and ‘Mutiny’. So, support and get this one, you will not regret it, cause it’s a great punk album.

(new single/clip) Melodic punks Ink Bomb releases new music video: ‘Theme Song’!

Leave a comment

Dutch punk rock band Ink Bomb releases a new music video: Theme Song. This new single is an ode to making music together and to carrying out plans, being this band together. Theme Song is the second single taken from the new album that will be released later this year.

Listen to Theme Song on Spotify
Ink Bomb is an active band consisting of four very different individuals to whom the band is important. “If you tour a lot together and write and record music together, you spend a long time together. You also experience each other at times when you are not the best version of yourself. Both the pursuit of our band dreams and the creative expression provide mental support when things don’t go well at other aspects of life,” singer Joost says.

“Uptempo songs with a fiery core / Make soothing salves for open sores / Ammo for those darker days / When your hearts been led astray”

“I was working on a melody for a song and since I don’t write lyrics I was just singing the words ink bomb over and over again as a demo for our singer Joost”, Ink Bomb guitar player Quirijn explains. “Joost took this as a cue to write a theme song for the band.”

For the energetic music video, Ink Bomb worked together again with Edwin Willemsen from Ambivalent Aardvark Productions who also shot the recent video for the song Human Remains. The video was shot in a so-called Instagram museum called Akwart Experience in the little town of Elst. Ink Bomb bassist Arina: “One of the rooms is covered in paint splashes, so a literal ink bomb exploded. This was just the perfect place for the video.”

Ink Bomb will be returning to the studio very soon to record more songs for their second album, expected in 2023.
