Nutshell are from Leuven, Belgium and this is their new e.p. These five entities grew up, as they say, on different forms of punk rock and they amalgamated all their influences in their music, thus making Nutshell what it is. What do we have here? We have five songs of mighty punk rock bordering with garage punk influences in the songwriting and the music itself is very energetic, yet there is some subtle melody underneath it all, like in one of my personal favorites Florida Man with that wicked guitar hooks of melody. Vocals are shouted and a bit nervous at times, but they are just like they are supposed to be for this kind of punk. Guitars are also very crispy, noisy and hit you right in the eye along with thunderous drumming and pumping bass. Lyrics are a bit humorous, a bit personal and a bit political if you read between the lines. I like this one. If you are a fan of this kind of punk rock, go get this one.
Back Garden Light are finally back under the light! Today marks the release of Such a Shame, the fourth single from the French band’s first album Back Garden Light out on February 26th. The infectious pop- punk song is the follow-up to Hitting the Road that came out early 2021 as well as two singles out since 2018 “Jumping Fences” and “The Right Side”. This is what the band has to say about the catchy new track: “We call it the hit among us because it’s probably the one with the most hit-like elements, and it’s been the subject of a music video with our usual Van Espen team. The song is in ternary which gives it an indecent groove for a pop punk song! The topic is quite classic, we call out TV fans or people easily influenced by the media. Special mention for the pre-break bell which was influenced by Futurama”
