rolling punk/non-indie underground 2012

I would buy most of these records based on the band names alone

lightning bolt's about to go on the road and have a new record coming out at the end of sept, so no physical copies of the new black pus, think he's just blowing off steam tbh

but he's got others in varying states of availability including one on load. that new one's pretty stupefying tho - "play god"!

also, all recorded on a tascam cassette 4 trk

it is bafflingly tricky to buy Load releases in the UK atm - they don't deal with any bedroom distros that I know of but they don't turn up in eg my local store either (and they used to)

there's probably some big online place that has em idk

are you in london? I know they switched distro's a while ago. amazon maybe? plus I think they take international orders on their website if you wanna order direct.

Saw Naomi Punk tonight, they really brought it

Tinsel Teeth and their vocalist have parted ways. LAME up the lame!

nuthin lasts forever

Wiccans' 2nd LP, "Field II" will be available tomorrow from Katorga Works

here's a track - http://soundcloud.com/katorga-works/kw-018

tomorrow? hasn't it been out for a while? i bought a copy off them live earlier in the summer, it's good but not as good as the debut

iirc it's getting released by a Euro label around now so maybe that's it? I did mean to buy it when that happened

i'm in the band. the tour copies were 110 test presses that were done for tour because it wasn't ready in time.
these are the final copies.

it's out in europe on Hardware as of a few weeks ago.

brain tumors is some serious hardcore

http://derangedrecords.bandcamp.com/album/fuck-you-forever

it's been quiet in here... too quiet...

http://divorce.bandcamp.com/

love that there's a little kid running around in the crowd

lol winning sperm party

going to see hank wood & the hammerheads next month :-D

yeah they're good them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esG22B5-Ozs

^ think i quite liked this lp iirc

Loving Divorce

child abuse killed it in pvd a couple weeks ago, hope they play a show w/ divorce if they come to the US, the flyer will look like a social services ad

great Nu Sensae show on friday at a squat in Oakland. Peace from Vancouver also played, killed it. their records sound kind of like Sonic Youth: http://peacevancouver.bandcamp.com/ . also, Straight Crimes (Erin from High Castle/Sister Fucker/Child Pornography with Brad from Huff Stuff Magazine) played and they're probably the best new Oakland band of 2012.

http://soundcloud.com/straight-crimes . they've gotten much tighter since these posts.

New Sex Church 12" pre-order ends today:

http://instantpleasure.bandcamp.com

Any of you guys have/hear the new Guinea Worms? I loved the 2xlp from CDR last time, but am seriously curious how they have gotten since then.

Since Edward suggested it...

Any love for Drunk In Hell here? Have knocked me sideways both times I've seen them, they might just be my favourite band in Britain.

http://drunkinhell.bandcamp.com/

yeah that's a nice little drunks with guns/flipper fixation they got there

Looking at their gig history, they've played very few times outside of the North East. I think they're in Glasgow at the weekend?

me and other ppl had some cloud talk going at the weekend about setting up a UK tour w/ them and other bands (specifically, ones featuring the participants) but idk if it would be that practical. they seem to genuinely not care about getting more widely known and have had a debut album planned for at least two years, plus a split single w/ Kilslug. but yeah they completely floor me

nu-kilslug still an unbelievable thing to me. played a show with them last year and they went 90 minutes, basically doing every song they knew because the crowd wouldn't let them stop. they also put out a pretty demented record this year, 11" red vinyl that plays from the inside out, in a hardcover leather sleeve embossed w/ gold lettering. the label's selling them at a loss, total labor of satanic love.

this is really great! like nation of ulysses meets joy division

Ex Nuns - Piss/Shit Mountain EP (i know...i know)

http://exnuns.bandcamp.com/album/piss-shit-mountain-ep

no apologies for scatology on the rolling punk thread

after I sent out a mixtape to my friends with music by a band named Diarrhea Planet on it I lost all compunction for that kind of thing... sounds pretty good

RIP pat dzieweczynski of TVBC, legendary underground band here in minneapolis, he was in the original 80s lineup alongside paul metzger and freddy votel (votel was later in the cows, now in skoal kodiak)....but they were amazing, still play sometimes w/different lineup...but definitely flew the flag for weirdo punk funk jazz post punk improv in the 80s

you can listen to their classic album Ex-Cathedra here:

Okay I'm really wishing bandcamp had a built-in volume control right now. Goddamn.

I feel like a weasel asking this every year instead of keeping up with this thread, but are there any consensus best punk/emo/noise-rock/hardcore/post-hardcore albums I should be checking out this year before making my EOY list? I feel so out of the loop, and the recommendations I get here are always so good

hank wood & the hammerheads, fnu ronnies, and white load are probably my top 3 of the year

haven't heard new uv race yet but i'm stoked for that

CONVERGE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJU2_Is3ou4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFWESHoTgE0

just stumbled across these guys but BITS OF SHIT from Melbourne are kicking my ass as I type, this is a late contender for best punk LP of 2012 I think: http://homelessrecords.bandcamp.com/album/cut-sleeves

loud monotonous knuckledragger bar brawl blooze punk. don't think I'm projecting when I say it sounds deeply Australian. this is probably gonna be silly expensive for me to try and buy on wax, I might just spring for the download

that sounds amazing

love the vox, just my style

haven't heard new uv race yet but i'm stoked for that

ha I was just abt to ask if anybody's heard this yet

xp that album is awesome. There are some quality live vids on youtube of them, I posted a couple previously

That FNU Ronnies album is very silly. The Converge record is great; one of the few I've actually heard this year. That Bits of Shit album is a hoot, too. Exactly what I want from an Australian punk band.

Couldn't find the White Load album online (Googling it produced the expected problems). Know if it's streaming anywhere?

it was released by the record label "load" if that helps

i'm at work so i don't know if these streams are still live but giveitashot http://builtonaweakspot.com/post/20914579366/white-load-waynes-world-iii-b-w-godfather-iv-lp
