Mr. Lisp – Get Our Minds Right
7.5/10 Simplicity is a thing I truly and wholeheartedly believe will revel in from time to time. Like a pig in shit, I absolutely love not having to dissect something like a fucking neurosurgeon. Such […]

Dr.Doak – It’s Time to Leave
5/10 The classic glass half empty, or glass half full; you’re going to have to tell me on Dr Doak’s release, It’s Time To Leave. It’s an ambiguous mix of pop punk, grunge, and rock; and […]

Amber Lamps – On the Lamb
6/10 On the Lamb is the latest release from New York punk band Amber Lamps. A combination of old-school pop-punk and bluesy rock, the EP is a catchy enough listen but did little to wow […]

Like Pacific – In Spite of Me
7.3/10 The sophomore release from Toronto-based Like Pacific has the band picking up right where they left off on their 2016 debut Distant Like You Asked. Another installment of anthemic, emo pop-punk tunes that’ll keep your heart […]

Trappist – Ancient Brewing Tactics
5/10 This one is a goddamn novel. At 21 tracks, Ancient Brewing Tactics crams in more sweat, more grime, and more dirty riffs then any punk band has any right to. The one problem? They […]

El Escapado – “The Not So Full – Full Length EP” E.P.
6.5/10 El Escapado’s music is very much like that beer-swirling-lunatic at any punk show you’ve ever been to. You know the one; that guy or gal who is trying WAY too hard to have a […]

Cuecliché – Look at the Pictures
6/10 Cuecliché, a three-piece skate pop-punk band based in the UK, has recently released their second, self-recorded EP titled Look at the Pictures. Following up their 2017 debut release One Last Chance, Look at the […]
