AUDIO / Haybaby's "Joke/Rope"
AUDIO / Haybaby’s “Joke/Rope”
It’s no secret that No Such Punk loves Haybaby.
Maybe it’s because New York City is filled with a-million-and-one bands all clamoring to be the next big (read: commercially successful) thing or maybe it’s because the million-and-one bands are actually a quarter-million people who rotate lineups incessantly so you find yourself at shows musing, “wow, they sound just like a different version of…

Does Donald Trump make you want to vomit? Is getting your Seamless fix worth more to you than saving the environment?
Watch Surfbort’s video for “TRASH” and go see them tonight at Palisades or tomorrow at Berlin before they leave for SXSW.

AUDIO / Black Beach's "Shallow Creatures"
AUDIO / Black Beach’s “Shallow Creatures”
Photo: Madison McConkey
Thick fuzz and barbaric yawping mark the highlights of this trip to Black Beach, Boston’s heavy doom punks whose idea of fun in the sun certainly involve some necessary self-medication, surfing sludgy waves, and passing out under the boardwalk.
Their rip-roaring “Static Sound” is a pummeling fist-punch right in the middle of the LP which starts slow and heavy and picks up…

AUDIO / Greys' "No Star"
AUDIO / Greys’ “No Star”
The only constant in the world’s reaction to the November shootings in Paris was the fact that everyone had a reaction. There was a global outpouring of support towards the country and the victims. Social feeds were saturated with profile pictures overlaid with French flags and reasonable fixation upon the fact that, had the attacks been carried out at the same show in New York, we or our friends…

PHOTO / ¡Vamanos! (Record Release), Crazy & the Brains, Spewing Cum, Sun Voyager & Tongue Party
The first time I saw ¡Vamanos! was in a basement. It was so packed that it was hard to get rowdy, but the crowd managed to get crazy nonetheless (I believe it was the last basement show ever thrown in that apartment… whoops). The twosome bring a party and a gnarly wall of blues-infused punk that is 100% infectious.
Saturday’s show at Shea marked the album release for ¡Vamanos! …presents a 10″ at…

PREMIERE / Decoy's "EP1"
PREMIERE / Decoy’s “EP1”
A punk band and a shoegaze band had a baby. It was heavy and noisy and lovely in every way.
Decoy started as a joke project–it’s starting to seem like an awful lot of good bands start that way–when Charlie Ellis (bass, vox) and Matt Bernstein’s (guitar, vox) other project was having a hard time booking shows. With Barry Marino on drums, the trio hit the ground running in 2015. As such, they…

Jocelyn Simone one bad ass babe who loves everything she does. Simone works full time alongside Chelsey Pickthorn running PICKTHORN, one of the city’s buzziest hair salons, known for the perfect platinum and custom, hand-painted color. The salon has a fair amount of crossover with the music world, Simone spends a lot of her time going from venue to venue gathering bands to play the salon’s annual

VIDEO / Soupcans’ “DOB” Soupcans love smashing things. The Toronto trio has already incited abusive behavior towards a skateboard. In their new video for "DOB," they take out their rage on a variety of food products.

AUDIO / Ultragross' "Mom Jeans"
AUDIO / Ultragross’ “Mom Jeans”
Mom jeans for the win.
The track doesn’t need much more introduction. Ultragross is the brainchild of Seth Applebaum (you know him because he plays in The Mad Doctors and takes amazing photos) and Bettina Warshaw (you know her, because she beats the skins in The Rizzos).
Anyway, Mom Jeans are good and so is their first track. Listen below and go see them play their first ever show at the…

AUDIO / The Snarks’ “It’s Like… Carpe, YOLO, Man”
Do you like straightforward punk songs? Yeah? Me too.
They’re even better when after a few chords, you’re ready to simplify the vibe to a Ramones-sound-alike only to get sidelined by a wash of surf-inspired guitars. The Snarks are a five-piece project out of Fort Wayne, Indiana and they just released a new EP It’s Like… Carpe, YOLO, Man.
Each song is full of dynamic changes, building, crashing…

GUEST PLAYLIST / Paul Bruno
Music preference is largely subjective. You can argue about technical and compositional proficiency, but at the end of the day, great music exists without it and incredibly boring music despite it. So, here’s the first guest playlist. The parameters of the request were pretty simple: make a playlist of things you like.
Paul Bruno runs the Unblinking Ear label and podcast. It originally started a

YES. NEW. PUP.
Photo: Boy Wonder
PUP is rad and they have been touring like crazy–they had to pull out of a handful of US tour dates due to some severely mangled vocal cords–and now they’re getting ready to release their second album, DVP. I first fell in love with PUP via their self-titled 2013 album. To this day, “Reservoir” is one of the few songs I neverskip over when I put my catalog on…

VIDEO / Dead Stars “Calm Punk”
Following up on Dead Stars’ recent 7″ including “Calm Punk,” the band has now released a video that very much follows along a day in the life of a fittingly mellow punk.

If you take anything away from this, you should: know never to judge a book by its cover and get excited for the band’s impending full length Bright Colors (release show on Mar 4 @ Rough Trade).

AUDIO / Leggy’s “DANG”
A (slightly) more serious turn for Cincinnati’s Leggy.

In the perfect follow up to last year’s release, Leggy’s DANG delivers a double-punch via a contextual flip, trading much of the doe-eyed adoration found in Nice Try for hits at something a bit darker.
Though they don’t entirely give up sweet, reverb-drenched vocals, they are thrown into a blender with tongue-in-cheek…
