rolling punk/non-indie underground 2014

Thanks Emily, ordered.

First night of Static Shock was cool, started off with 3 HC bands - Snob, Strong Boys, Arms Race all pretty good, then Diät and Rakta which were more post-punk. I got confused because they changed the running order, and thought Diät were called Rakta, and bought the Rakta album after Diät's set, so I was really hoping Rakta would be good after spending money on them! I didn't like them as much as Diät tbh but they were pretty good. I just made the last tube home but I'm working from home today so I didn't have to get up too early.

I've been really digging this for the last week or so: https://peoplestemple.bandcamp.com/album/more-for-the-masses

Not bad!

New video from The Yips (that I directed, but it's a genuinely great band) for a tune off their EP: http://bruisedtongue.bandcamp.com/album/air-loom

Self-described ouija rock, dark surf-y garage music.

never got round to checking these guys out until now but this new Pop. 1280 track is really good https://soundcloud.com/sacredbones/pop-1280-krank/s-bsOZd?mc_cid=a93011f1a2&mc_eid=2a28e84fe0

sounds like the kind of industrial/punk that would get smuggled into Kerrang circa 1993 hidden amongst Pantera and Terrorvision coverage

anyone mentioned the Coneheads?

obnox!!!!!

shit yeah good call. gonna x-post to the 2015 version tho...

Royal Headache, the soul-inflected Australian garage group who are one of the greatest bands in the world, have announced a new album and U.S. tour dates and put a new track up on Soundcloud.

^broken link, but this works too https://royalheadache.bandcamp.com/track/high

Ah rats, thank you

good track imo!

Definitely! This live video from 2013 has performances of a few other tracks from the new record ("Carolina", "Garbage", and "Electric Shock") plus I guess some other stuff that didn't make it. (Someone in the comments has helpfully added links to the individual songs.)

this is amazing

A belated discovery--their most recent release is from 2104--but I'm really digging Vancouver's Needles//Pins:

(Shamebirds, that 2014 record, is prob a good place to start, but for a great bite-size chunk, check out the "Outta This Place"/"Date Night (You Bring the Napalm)" single.

*2014, that is--no need to wait 89 years for their latest.

Their First World Problems EP from 2010 (which isn't on discogs, I think it was a cassette?) was p good but I never followed up on it.
