Record Thieves - Wasting Time

By most accounts, this has been a pretty lousy year. Civil unrest, political uncertainty and a pandemic make for some depressing times. However, there have been a few random highlights sprinkled into the shit stew that is 2020. One of them is certainly the reemergence of Denver, Colorado punks Record Thieves (feat. members of Authority Zero, Allout Helter and Boldtype), who have been disturbingly quiet since 2017.

PUP - This Place Sucks Ass

Toronto’s punk powerhouse PUP are thrilled to announce a forthcoming EP to get us through the craziest year of our lives. Entitled This Place Sucks Ass, the six song collection arrives October 23, 2020 via Little Dipper / Rise Records. In addition to the previously released songs “Anaphylaxis” and a cover of Grandaddy’s beloved “A.M. 180,” the EP contains three songs from the Morbid Stuff sessions that have yet to see the light of day, as well as the blistering “Rot,” which was written and recorded this year.

Territories

Territories Punk Rock Theory

One of the most surprising releases this year has to be Territories' new EP, 'When The Day Is Done,' out now on Pirates Press Records. These Canadians have quite a lot going on in just six short and fast songs and all of it is pure goodness.

Kurt Baker - After Party

American musician, songwriter, music producer, and multi-instrumentalist Kurt Baker has dropped a vintage 80's-inspired music video for "Over You," the lead single off his upcoming solo album 'After Party' set for release on October 23 via Wicked Cool Records.

No Thank You - Embroidered Foliage

No Thank You have announced their new album, Embroidered Foliage, due out October 23rd from Lame-O Records.

No Thank You have shared the album's first single "Enough," a perfect introduction to Embroidered Foliage's dynamic range.
