Tomorrow is the official release date for Human Nature, the second record by our favorite punk-rock four-piece RECKLING. Today we’re stoked to be premiering ‘Spitter’ - the last early look at the EP before D-Day. Cementing itself as a live favorite, ‘Spitter’ details the emotional labor of moving through life’s hard times and more literally, moving past a bitch that spit on you.
Feeding their growing fanbase less than a year after their sophomore album, Keep on Truckin’, the American-punk-core of Surfbort has released a new single. The next installment of their world domination, “Never Gonna Be What You Want Me to Be,” is a focused performance with a head-down directive opposite to the loud, deliberately messy, and wild record of last year.

With a sound that makes it easy to imagine if a Whip-Smart era Liz Phair was a snarling punk in 1970s Los Angeles, “In My Hair” is an anthem for every obsessive overthinker and indecisive decision-maker. An earworm of an offering from Reckling’s upcoming EP Human Nature, out August 12th, we’re already obsessed and hungry for more.

Last weekend we hustled out to Zebulon in Los Angeles, CA last minute to catch Human Issue, who celebrated the release of their debut record Faceless. Nameless. Supporting Human Issue were LA favs The Side Eyes, Slaughterhouse, and Enemy.
Bonavega continues to be one of the most unique personas in the LA music scene. The 80s comes alive when this glam-rockstar takes the stage, coupled with the androgyneous style that emboldens Bonavega as an underdog to revitalize shock-rock, glam-rock — whatever your conservative parents hate to call it.
If you’ve ever seen 80s-inspired pop duo Faux Real live, you know that they’re LA’s local kings of Doing the Most. Another jewel in their string of instant-hit singles, they make good on their promise to “shed it like a snake” with their latest music video.
The Brooklyn-born quartet of punk-rockers, formally known as Surfbort, know how to make music so raw it spits in your face. Some months ago, we reviewed their debut studio record, Keep on Truckin’. Among those tracks we loved, “Lot Lizard 93” was a particular favorite - so when Surfbort dropped a music video for the track, we wanted to do a write up!

Los Angeles, CA based Veronica Bianqui has just shared the music video for her song ‘I Want To Tell You’ - it’s dreamy and we love it.

It’s no secret that we’re obsessed with PUNK CRUSH and luckily for us, the LA-Based noise-masters have just shared a burning new single ‘BLACK OUT!’. Following the sporadic-release of their last few music videos, PUNK CRUSH never fails to bring the emotionally-gripping moments of life front and center on the platform of nasty guitar tones, primal drumming, and screaming.
From the horizons of Melbourne, Australia, Amyl and The Sniffers have been emerging like a volcano.

Coming from the success of their self-titled debut, the quartet’s recent record, Comfort To Me, is a spectacular follow-up.
It’s no secret — we love Kill Birds. Their 2019 self-titled debut was a gorgeous encapsulation of indie rock and punk that mystified and gripped us. While the record had its more deeper moments, the pervading score was like a fog slowly rolling in, slowly consuming.
Straight up: Surfbort's latest LP Keep on Truckin' is a galore of odd, funny, and droning lyricism floored atop of a congestion of deep guitar riffs and distant drum-blows. Entrenched in this weird record is a merit of cautious technique and buzzing infection. Like an ear-bug, Keep on Truckin' nestles itself in your ears and fucks shit up.
LA-based Wallows have just dropped a new single, “I Don’t Want To Talk”. The track is the bands first release since dropping an EP Remote (Deluxe) all the way back in February and we couldn’t be more stoked.
