Boston’s Choke Up is back with the follow-up to 2015’s “Black Coffee, Bad Habits”, which you should check out if you haven’t already done so.

Following two EP’s, Norway’s Sløtface are finally releasing their debut album, “Try Not To Freak Out”. A title that we can get behind.

“Canadian Graffiti” is The Riptides’ first new album in eight years and their eighth album overall.

Besides having one of the best band names around, Ellen and the Degenerates also have the uncanny ability to write punk rock songs that are as catchy and melodic as they are aggressive.

Portland, OR’s Dark/Light should appeal not just to punks, but also to fans of the X-Men universe with their self-described style of ‘mutant punk’.

I pretty much kept on sticking up for the Foo Fighters up until 2011’s “Wasting Light”.

Autonomics have a new album out and it’s called “Debt Sounds”. A pun on the Beach Boys album? Sure, just look at the artwork.
