There's very few bands that work as hard to bring the music to the masses as Supersuckers. They're like a sleeper cell. Without warning, they'll come out of hiding in Anytown, U.S.A. and blow shit up. They are a band that everyone needs to see live at least once - and when you do, you'll want to see them every single time they come. Every show is an event.

And when a new Supersuckers album comes out? Well shit, that's pretty much the only playlist you'll need for the next few weeks. With their latest Get The Hell, Eddie Spagetti and company continue their tradition of meat and potatoes rock 'n roll, but even more impressive - they continue to make rock 'n roll fun.

Let me tell you something folks. Rock came very close to never being fun again with the death of Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone. Thanks to bands like Supersuckers, the fire still burns bright through tracks like "Fuck Up", "Gluttonous" and "Disaster Bastard". They hold the standard high for those that can't hold it up anymore.


Special note:
Folks, as much as we love the music we do, sometimes you need to show it in more ways than buying an album. Supersuckers frontman and ultimate badass could use your help to curb-stomp cancer's sorry ass. Click here to read the story and to make a donation.

Circuit des Yeux

Halo On The Inside
Matador (2025)

Haley Fohr's artistic vehicle, Circuit des Yeux, defies categorisation. Stamping the indie folk label on her was superficial, something dispelled easily once you have experienced the lo-fi distortion of "The Girl With No Name." It might be that under the layers of sonic disfigurement, a folk ethos is present in Fohr's narrative sensibility, but it is no longer the same. … Read more

ZEPHR

Past Lives
Dumb Ghost, Snappy Little Numbers (2025)

Sometimes you can just hear the passion in a voice. ZEPHR is one of those bands. They defy convention a little bit, in that I associate gravelly voices with harsher, heavier sounds, but ZEPHR use sore-throat vocals to great effect with midtempo, emotional and melodic 3-chord chugging punk rock and some DC sound. In few words, it's raw, both musically … Read more

Kreiviskai

Motinai
Infinite Fog Productions (2025)

Kreiviskai's origins are deeply rooted in the neofolk sound and ethos. Their debut record, Zemmis : supnãi, focuses on the musical lineage of Tver, embracing the traditional instrumentation to produce a somber and moving piece. Their follow-up record, Nonregnum expands outward, focusing on various historical events and introducing further influences. The pull of neo-classical is palpable, while the abrasive industrial … Read more
