Loudwire has premiered the newest video from Portuguese hardcore quintet REALITY SLAP, created for the track "Blaze," which hails from the band's recently-released Limitless EP.

Combining the best of old-school aggression with a modern hardcore vibe, REALITY SLAP's songs are full of tight riffs, heavy grooves, and they always pack a massive punch. Recorded at Eyeball Studios in Portugal. Limitless bridges the influence of DMIZE, Outburst, Breakdown, Cro-Mags, and Bad Brains mixed with modern bands like Turnstile, Backtrack, Down To Nothing, and Terror.

Issues the band with the new video, "We felt that...

There are a lot of sounds released over the years that are heart felt iconic pieces of Americana writing and bringing you back to the glory days of no matter how hard things got there’s always hope. Sammy Kay is no stranger to the scene hailing from Asbury New Jersey, home to the folky, soulful heart felt punk sound, an iconic scene full of heartache, hard times and stories of love and despair. On his latest release “Untitled” Sammy is following up from his last well received release “Forth Street Singers” which was produced by Pete Steinkopft and released on Panic Street Records and recorded at Little Eden studios,whic...

ISOTOPES - 1994 World Series Champions
CD/LP/DIGI Release Date: April 14, 2017
Pioneers of the baseball punk genre, the Topes' gritty, no-bargain brand of 100% juice-injected baseball-themed punkrock has earned them faithful legions of fans and juiceheads worldwide.

Now, back from the 9th inning stretch, The Isotopes step up to bat in fine form with “1994 World Series Champs”. Ten blazing ear-bangers chocked to the jock strap with ultra-hooky pop-punk grand slams.

It was back in 2007 when a young Evan October was up to bat with the bases loaded and bottom of the ninth, that’s when the legend began and the rest they say...

It was 89 in the heat of the political landscape and the heart of the punk scene that was exploding Dee Dee decided to leave the iconic punk act The Ramones. So who do you get to fill in for Dee Dee and along comes Chris Ward straight out of the Marine Corps. Hurrah! Fresh, young and full of energy. Wait that won't work - all members of the Ramones end in the band moniker so what's Chris's title then.. C.J Ramone.. Yeah! That will work. Years went by and C.J became family literally after marrying "Chessa", Marky's niece and was even credited to keeping the band fresh and full of energy right up to the very end in 96. Bu...

For the uninitiated, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes consist of Lagwagon frontman Joey Cape on the guitar, Chris Shiflett (Foo Fighters) on the other guitar, Lagwagon drummer and Fat Wreck utility superhero Dave Raun on the skins, and are rounded out by Fat Wreck-head-honcho/NOFX main-dude Fat Mike, and incomparable crooner Spike Slawson. Together, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes — an outfit that has always operated more like a beer-hall Pussycat Dolls than a regular mortal band—contain so much hot air, so much pomp, so much attitude, that it’s a wonder that these guys can still manage to pull their five individual tour bus...

About the Orbit Turntable

We believe that great sound should be affordable. By redesigning classic audiophile components and leaving out nonessentials, we created a remarkably simple turntable that provides detailed and natural sound. Easy to setup and always reliable, the Orbit delivers a dynamic and distortion-free listening experience that outperforms its price tag.

It can be said, without any exaggeration, that The Real McKenzies are a national treasure. 

Founded in 1992 by the larger than life, punk-rock poet laureate, Mr Paul McKenzie, this merry band of miscreants has spent a quarter century circumnavigating the globe to bring the McKenzies gospel to an ever-adoring throng of rebels, scallywags and ne’er do wells. There aren't many bands that can boast of a twenty five year career as staggeringly adventurous, wildly tempestuous and utterly death-defying as The Real McKenzies. It would be a serious mistake to write them off as just another Celtic punk band. They...

The outfit, helmed by producer/bass player Chris Kniker (RevCo, Lords of Acid) enlist former Faith No More singer Chuck Mosley for vocals and Melvins’ drummer Dale Crover for the 10-song collection.

“When I listened to the music for Primitive Race, ideas just came pouring out,” said Mosley, “I couldn't say no to doing the record. When we completed the first few tracks, I found myself wishing I had written them, not just the lyrics… just good heavy riffs and grooves reall...
