No Pressure – No Pressure LP
Review — July 19, 2022
Well to be honest I'm not a Story So Far fan and would not add their albums into a “Favorites” playlist, but I can tell you that No Pressure is Parker's new music project and it just put out a banger tune this year. As has previously been told, No …
Forests – Get In Losers, We're Going To Eternal Damnation
Review — July 25, 2022
Singaporean trio twinkle band, Forests, just put out their 3rd full- length entitled Get In Losers, We're Going To Eternal Damnation. I guess the title itself explains what would lie in the theme of the lyrics. It Ssounds stupid but serious at the same time. The band still encapsulates …
Football, Etc. – Vision
Review — August 2, 2022
I never thought that I would review a Houston-based band. It seems Football, Etc is my first. The band just put out this new EP this year which is a surprise, as the band is focusing on Overo now (which includes 2/3 members of Football, Etc). The last thing the …
Camp Trash – The Long Way, The Slow Way
Review — August 11, 2022
Camp Trash is a band that impressed me from the first second I heard them on their first single ”Weird Carolina” before the Downtime EP was out. I can't deny that I got to discover the band through Keegan, the guitarist. (Keegan used to write on many Asian bands for …
without – Be Corny
Review — August 16, 2022
To me, the Japanese orgcore scene has always been an interesting thing when you're talking Asian scene and I see many great Japanese 90s-'00s melodic hardcore/orgcore bands as my early influences. What's been so good about the bands is that Japanese bands have always made accomplishment through their music or …
The Clever References – Hamish's House
Review — August 23, 2022
Some say Australia is a very nice place to spend your life, saying it's the safest place on earth with its protective system for its citizens. I know it's kind of dumb for thinking that any band that is from a more "wealthy place", like Australia, will always have its …
Xingfoo&Roy – Green Around The Gills
Review — August 31, 2022
It's always nice to know one of your friends and favorite bands is doing good stuff and this example goes to a Singaporean band called Xingfoo&Roy. I met them initially 6 years ago. Me and some friends in our tiny town arranged a gig for the band. They're super nice …
Joyce Manor – 40 oz. to Fresno
Review — September 6, 2022
Joyce Manor is one of those bands that I always follow, a band that shaped my tastes in my earlier years of digging into pop punk/emo subculture. Let’s say I would like to thankgod, ‘cause 2022 is a year where a lot of good stuff is coming out and unfortunately …
Swarm – Menyerbak Asap
Review — September 20, 2022
It is nice to see some friends actually being productive on the pandemic age and finally come up with something new on the scene, like we all know that for some person having so much free time doesn't mean a good thing for her/his productivity. And this goes up for …

Screeching Weasel – The Awful Disclosure of Screeching Weasel
Review — October 11, 2022
Before starting, I would like take a quote from the band's spotify profile” "Went to a Ramones show. Started a band. Pissed a lot people off". The quote tells a lot about the band's history and controversies. Begin with having a beef with many label owners, Fat Wreck one of …

By the time I'm writing this review, I would like to express my condolence for all the families and the victims of the police brutality in Kanjuruhan (Malang) soccer match. And this time we have a submission music coming from Haum Entertainment. Haum Entertainment is a Malang (Indonesia) based label …
Graduation Speech – Controlled Burn
Review — November 9, 2022
I mostly enjoy acoustic albums during my cruising time to work by bike. I can't explain what makes the acoustic sounds special when you listen to it in the morning. Maybe I'm a typical kind of guy who is slow to wake up and acoustic tunes are perfect to build …
Pembroke – All The Brightest Pictures
Review — November 29, 2022
Let's say this is my first assignment at Scene Point Blank and this time I'll do a review for a hardcore punk album. It's an album by Pembroke entitled All The Brightest Pictures. Well, it's a quite rare thing for me to review hardcore punk records these days but …
Pee Wee Gaskins – Get Well Soon
Review — December 6, 2022
To many Indonesian kids who dig into the melodic punk local scene, Pee Wee Gaskins is one name that has gained national popularity through the years. My first introduction to the band was on a social media platform called Myspace. Yes, Myspace had been the band's wheel of fortune for its career …
