Calling your band Earth Mother Fucker is a statement in and of itself, and having the audacity to go for such an aggressive sounding moniker should stand a project in good stead for the coming years. Should. For this wildly named band, the lights of the stage were few and far between and despite existing for just over a decade, Earth Mother Fucker never quite hit the heights of the charts and their time as a functional entity was over by 2001. The band did record some songs and this album/compilation houses pretty much all their recorded output.

Ostensibly led by Bruce MacGregor, Earth Mother Fucker play a sot of noise/garage rock that certainly sounds of its time. For the modern ear, this collection of songs is jarring, to say the least and I Fuck Therefore I Am is a heady waltz of off-kilter guitars and screeching vocals. It is surely a collection of completionist types, who would be the only people willing to engage in the one hour running time.

Graphic Details
Independent (2026)

One of the things I love about reviewing music is stumbling across bands that have somehow managed to fly under my radar for years. Sometimes it's a new band just getting started, and other times it's a group that's been kicking around the underground for decades without me ever crossing paths with them. Birmingham, Alabama's Skeptic? falls firmly into the … Read more

​Pressure Set

​Pressure Set
Dr Strange Records (2026)

Punk rock has never needed complexity to make an impact. Sometimes, all it takes is a handful of riffs, a relentless rhythm section, and enough attitude to make the whole thing stick. Pressure Set understands that formula, but rather than simply recycling it, the band coats it in layers of filthy fuzz, garage-rock swagger, and an unexpectedly sharp melodic sensibility. … Read more
