Hailing from Eagle Mountain, Utah, Captives dropped this 5-song EP called “Afterimage” a month ago.

What do you get when you put drummer Brant Björk and vocalist John Garcia together? Kyuss Lives?

War Generation is Jon Bunch (Sense Field, Further Seems Forever), Brad Lehman (Maylene) and Craig Anderson (Ignite). Sounds pretty good, right? Well, so does “Start Somewhere Never Surrender”.

For their latest album, No Age turned it all inside out. Whereas their previous album were filled with noise, shrieking guitars and were fast as fuck, this time around they went with less is more.

Typhoon is something of a collective out of Portland… feel free to compare them to Polyphonic Spree.

All the way from Estonia comes Ewert And The Two Dragons, a charming indiepop/rock outfit with folk influences to boot.

BL’AST! was a hardcore band from California in the mid 80’s who released three albums through SST and enjoyed a cult following.

Fuck Buttons is and will probably always be Andrew Hung and Benjamin John Power. Two dudes who not only have awesome last names but make equally awesome music.

Chris Shiflett has already been in his share of bands including Me First And The Gimme Gimmes, No Use For A Name, Viva Death, his own project Jackson United and of course Foo Fighters.

Football, etc. are back with their second album, “Audible”. Living up to their band name, this Texas trio has named every single song on it after an American football term. Nice touch?
