- Protest The Hero - A Calculated Use Of Sound (For fans of Propagandhi, Symphony X)Ahh... Protest The Hero. One of my favorite bands that receive pretty mainstream success with their albums Kezia and Fortress. These days, Canada's Protest The Hero is often labeled as a proto-progressive metal band, but they didn't start out that...
- None More Black (Live In Philly 2/28/10)Last night, I headed out to Philly's Barbary to catch one of my punk favorites, None More Black. The show was completely sold out, (lucky I bought a ticket in advance), and I missed openers Gypsy.Man Overboard:I did make it in time for NJ's Man Overb...
- Witch Hunt - Burning Bridges To Nowhere (For fans of F-Minus, Aus Rotten, Leftover Crack)The whole female/male dual vocals found in crust punk is incredibly difficult to pull off. The general idea is to take the usually harsh dude's vocals and have it melodically mix in with the (slightly) less harsh and dudette's voice. The problem is t...
- Seriously? Still Snowing (A Mix)Haha holy shit, we're getting hammered! No, not in the getting wasted variety... but I thought winter was pretty much over then end of January due to the warmer weather we were getting on the east coast. But then February comes ripping in and snows a...

And Excited By Nothing!!!".Recorded and mixed wi...

On Saturday, I headed out to Philly's sickest hangout living room around, The Terrordome to catch pogo kings Blanks 77 with street punk legends Violent Society. The place was jam packed with mohawks,...
- The Casualties - Die Hards (For fans of The Unseen, The Virus, The Boils)Man, The Casualties get a lot of shit from the punk scene. I've heard complaints ranging from they just recycle riffs (Ramones anyone?) , they care too much about their hair (I'm not looking at them on CD buddy), their fans are all younger (we all st...
- The Ruining - This Is An Ambush (For fans of None More Black, Lagwagon, Whatever it Takes)Last Friday when I went to go see Off With Their Heads, I wound up running late and unfortunately missed the Philly/NJ local openers, The Ruining. After the show, I stopped by their merch table just to see what the band was all about, and one of the...
- Team Robespierre - Everything's Perfect (For fans of Atom and His Package, Matt and Kim, Intro5pect)Ever since the demise of Atom and His Package, there has been quite the rising of quirky as dancy synth driven music in punk. Sure, I guess you can argue it started with New Wave, but those were the 80s, and everyone was smoking crack then anyway.Jus...
- Off With Their Heads with Cloak/Dagger, Slow Death (Live in Asbury Park 2/12/10)On Friday night, I took the 1 and a half hour drive out to punk rock bowling alley Asbury Lanes in my home state of New Jersey to catch one of my favorite sing a long bands, Off With Their Heads.Cloak/DaggerI arrived in the middle of these guys set,...
