They just released their brand new video for “Predstava”, in my opinion the best song from their current album with the same title meaning “The Show” in Croatian.

Check out the video, get both of their full length albums and support the guys, I know it would mean a lot to them!

(record review)THE PHOSPHORUS BOMBS-“Blank Slates”

I never cease to be amazed with the Australian punk hardcore scene. So many awesome bands, so many awesome people and although we live across half the world from each other, I feel connected to them by the magic of music. The Phosphorus Bombs from Sydney have a new record out and I listened and reviewed it for this webzine.

“Blank Slates” contains five songs of refreshing yet somehow nostalgic hardcore punk. The music is very harsh and energetic, angry and noisy, yet it still contains enough hidden melody underneath to keep it catchy and excellent. Don´t get me wrong, this guys really know how to handle their music instruments and play well and thought out punk. The lyrics are personal, somehow self deprecating but still enough political and smart between the lines. The song that I loved the most while listening this record a couple of times was “Overdue”, being the most melodic and energetic song on the record for me. This is an excellent record by the excellent band, so go get it, write to the guys in the band, tell them how you loved and why you loved their music, I am sure it will mean tons to them!

8,5/10

(record review)ELWAY-“For the sake of the bit”(Red Scare Industries)

Elway is an American punkrock band from Colorado. “For the sake of the bit” is their latest album and I listened to it and reviewed it for this webzine.

As the readers of this webzine are already aware I love and always appreciate the emotion and melody behind punkrock music and Elway provides all of that with this album. The album contains 8 melodic punkrock songs, this is not fast hardcore stuff, this is more of a Nothington/Menzingers stuff meaning melodic punk with personal lyrics and emotional choruses made for singing along. Personally, the best songs for me on the album are “Hold on”, “Selfish masochistic psychic trauma” and “Paper guitars”. This is an excellent album for listening to chill out but also to throw out of your system something that hurts you and doesn´t leave you be. So, I am recommending you, if you love punkrock done in melodic but at the same time personal way, get this one.
