How do you like Citizen I.C.E., by Dropkick Murphys / @haywire617? "they've poorly trained an army for our kids to fear today / The gave 'em masks and weapons and sent them on their way / They're knee-deep in proud boys, thΠ΅ party never stops / Too scared to join thΠ΅ military, too dumb to be a cop"
BAYWAY dumped World Of Bayway Vol. III out of nowhere: slow pressure, knuckles first, via @Trustkill - The drop lands just before they head into a packed stretch of shows, including HELLFEST WEST and a long US run with SNUFFED ON SIGHT on select dates. trustkill.bandcamp.com/album/world-...
Pittsburgh horsecore pack Kicked In The Head By a Horse just dropped βMemento moriβ and it hits like blunt force trauma. Short, super heavy, twisted, merging chaotic metalcore with deathmathcore, no breathing room.
BLOOM/DECAY EP, out February 18.

LIKE A PEET, KEEN TO THE RUSTLE OF LEAVES, by LIMBS. Metallic and chaotic, drifting into noise, post-rock tension, and eerie synth textures. MAJORITY RULE colliding with the unpredictability of WRISTMEETRAZOR, filtered through experimental lens.

Miami hardcore band POWERPLAY drop new single βLiberosis,β their first release via TERMINUS HATE CITY, featuring Andrew Neufeld of COMEBACK KID. An anthemic take on mental health, pressure, and finding strength through community - youtu.be/VDSjZ7SUgH4?...
STRESSED return with A World From Ashes. Adelaide hardcore pushed deeper into metal, cold and confrontational, carrying the weight of bands like REPRISAL, ARKANGEL, and MORNING AGAIN. A message-driven violence built for movement, sweat, and impact. lifelairregretrecords.bandcamp.com/album/a-worl...
Itβs late, MTVβs still flickering, and some random loud band crashes in - no clue who they are, but itβs heavy as hell, so you donβt touch the remote. Filth is Eternal www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Pyt...

Thoughts on the new POISON THE WELL? www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkNr...
New single βHangmanβ just dropped from VALLEY OF DOVES from Alabama. Alternative/post-hardcore at the core, but theyβre clearly pulling from that DEFTONES heaviness, some DREDG atmosphere, and twisting it into their own version of solid thick riffed rock. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hjf4...
GILLIAN CARTER just put out a live record captured on August 31, 2025 at The Orpheum in Tampa. gilliancarter.bandcamp.com/album/live-i...
What a wild project he has delivered!

#diy #punk #zines #fanzine #fanzinet #italianpunk #hardcore #hardcorepunk
In the β80s, Italian punk scenes connected without the internet β through fanzines, letters, and real addresses. Paolo Palmacciβs Fanzinet project maps nearly 700 of those publications, bringing back a physical, slow, deeply human network that once held entire scenes together.
MASS CONTROL back in full blunt-force mode. βIllusory Walls / Chasmβ is short, heavy, no filler β straight 90s-core energy with teeth. Sydney / Blue Mountains grit, leaning hard into EARTH CRISIS, INTEGRITY, IN COLD BLOOD territory. Zero mercy. lifelairregretrecords.bandcamp.com/album/illuso...
