Jumpercable – Jumpercable — Monkey Wrench, 2008

Awful intro that thankfully goes into speedy hardcore reminiscent of bands from the early part of this decade. It's fun and moshy. They even have a song that begins with a sweet simple bass line and some guitar feedback whine. There was a time when every band sounded like this and had names like Ten Yard Fight, In My Eyes, and Floorpunch. It was awesome. I have no idea why Jumpercable hasn't been brought to my attention before or even mentioned on a certain messageboard I can't escape from. Nevetheless, Jumpercable = fun.

Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows
GREEDY (2025)

Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows is a live studio recording from 1989, released on picture disc earlier this year on limited vinyl for Record Store Day. Given that it came shortly before the release of Blood, Guts & Pussy, it's no surprise that it's heavy on songs from that record (10 of 14, if I've counted correctly). It's more primal than … Read more
