(new single-new video)Tim Loud releases new video for the track ‘Hate’

The second video from Tim Loud‘s third album ‘Salvation’ looks at the media driven culture of hatred that has been allowed to thrive in society, and subsequently spark a rise in right wing politics.

The video centres around a couple watching TV and then images and channels relevant to the lyrics cutting in and out. The video features a host of extras from the North-West UK DIY scene. The video was written and directed by Oclumus.

(record review)VANILLA POD-Goodbye My Love(Horn & Hoof Records)

Vanilla Pod released their swan song, their final record and it is an e.p. Goodbye My Love through Horn & Hoof Records.

Cover 1500

Norfolk, UK legends Vanilla Pod are calling it quits and their final record is an excellent melodic punkrock hardcore release comprised of four songs. The music this band plays, for those who don˙t know is faster paced, melodic punk hardcore with a lot of great melodies, cutting guitar riffs, memorable hooks, harmonic backing vocals and choruses just made for singing along and pumping your punkrock defiant fist in the air hehe. For me, the absolutely best song on this record, there is no doubt is Waster. This record is a nice ending to a great era and we can only thank this band for all the memories, all the great music and I am only sorry that I was not able to see them perform live. But, who knows? Life is strange, maybe one day hehe.

8/10

(news)Misgivings Release New Single Call It Off

2c6b6bbb-bcd5-4cb4-86eb-a2264ebc4ef1

 Lockjaw Records have announced that Portsmouth’s gruff punks Misgivings will be joining their roster to release their debut album Hermitage.

 

Portsmouth’s Misgivings are a powerhouse of gruff melodic punk rock that will wrap you in riffs and tug at your heartstrings.

Combining the hooks of The Flatliners and the rasp of Leatherface with the gut-wrenching power of Iron Chic, they bring emotion alive with every intricately constructed song.

To celebrate, Misgivings have release a video for their brand new single Call It Off.  

Embraced by the loud, melody-driven South Coast UK punk scene, Misgivings bring a uniquely British edge to an otherwise traditionally North American punk rock sound. Lyrically, Misgivings are rooted in personal and political issues, viewing the world with equal measures of uncertainty and hope, aiming to reward the listener for looking closer. Their raw, emotional approach to rough melodic punk is bound to appeal to fans of Hüsker Dü, Polar Bear Club and The Burnt Tapes.

Originally formed in 2013 by guitarists and vocalists Will Pearce and Ollie Richardson, Misgivings are now completed by drummer Rob Day and bassist Martin Spooner. Since their formation, Misgivings have released series of self-produced EPs and singles, including 2014’s Delete History, 2016’s Elsewhere and a 2016 split single with Szyslak.

Although this is Misgivings’ first release with Lockjaw Records, regular Lockjaw fans may know Will from his work in Sombulance, who released their 2017 EP Lifer via the label last year.
