Psychic Teens

Psychic Teens - TEEN

I think these dudes are from Philly, and I don't know much about them, except that they are one fucking rad band. This sounds like Young Widows mixed with Joy Division (or Sonic Youth mixed with Bauhaus). Noisy and dark rock music that any punk or goth kid can get behind.

Sacred Love

Sacred Love - Love Songs Demo

Sacred Love - Dividing Lines

Sacred Love are a great hardcore band out of Baltimore, MD. If you dig Bad Brains, Cro-Mags, Burn and Bitter End then give these guys a listen, they'll have you bedroom moshing in no time. The demo is pretty rad but Dividing Lines is where it's at. Youngblood Records (one of my all-time favourite hardcore labels) released the demo 7" and the Dividing Lines 12" EP, so go and buy them both from them.

Coliseum - Parasites

Coliseum - Parasites EP

Latest EP from one of the best bands going. The bulk of this EP was recorded by J. Robbins at Inner Ear Studio and the tracks all sound amazing. The remaining jams are House With A Curse leftovers (that also totally slay). The added icing on the cake here is that rad fucking cover art by Rick Froberg.

Life Sux

Wavves - Life Sux EP

New EP from Nathan Williams and Co. I know this dude is a total douche, but god damn can he write some catchy tunes. Opening track "Bug" is one of the best songs of the year, and my favourite Wavves song so far. This is a great EP by an awesome band. I've been jamming this non-stop in the car on the way to and from work for over a month and I'm still not tired of it. Oh yeah Fucked Up and Best Coast guest on this thing, if that does anything for you.

Atlas Losing Grip - State Of Unrest

Atlas Losing Grip - State Of Unrest

This is Rodrigo from Satanic Surfers/Intensity's new band. Fast as fuck punk rock. If you dig Propagandhi, Satanic Surfers and A Wilhelm Scream then you'll go nuts for this. I meant to post this months ago, oh well, here it is now. If you miss that 90's Fat and Epitaph sound as much as I do then this should help to fill that void.

Nothington - Borrowed Time

Nothington - Borrowed Time

Here is the latest from these Bay Area punk rockers. These dudes take equal influence from Jawbreaker, Leatherface and Social Distortion (and sound like the perfect blend of all three). Gruff punk rock with lots of heart. This is their first LP for Red Scare after having released two albums with BYO Records.
