Motivation




So here is the amazing Motivation! Straightedge Positive punk from Hungary. My love of the stuff coming out out Hungary is well known, it's almost like stepping back into the mid nineties with thrash/PV/hardcore bands just everywhere!

These fellows have been heading the charge for awhile now with the none stop tours and releases. It's good to see a hardcore band with a positive message, and yes i know alot of people do or don't agree with the straightedge principles but when the music is this good then who cares! Crank this shit up and let the posi river flow over you!

JXM




Just came across these guys today. Awesome fast thrash from Liverpool, UK. Really powerful stuff with that dirty ass sound that this music needs, plug in, play loud, play fast and thrash all the way!

I'm post up their split with the equally awesome GWC another great thrash/hardcore band also from Liverpool.

JXM are looking for gigs in the UK or anywhere i guess so if you can help then hit them up at their myspace page.

The Homefront



Awesome hardcore punk from Massachusetts, USA. Fast, melodic and just what this shit should do and throw in some wicked group vocals and bingo we got a super awesome band. Been listening to this album alot of recent, always dig some hardcore to the start of summer!

The Homefront - Sacrifice

Under A Dying Sun



One of the most underrated bands ever! Since i heard their s/t album many moons ago i fell in love with them. Playing their own kind of emo/post punk tunes and unlike most bands around they play their own style, pretty dirty and well crafted songs. It's always a pleasure when a band put some thought into their stuff and show a varied range of music. With some really nice quiet, slow parts then burst into hyper, energetic frenzies and can then go either way. They always keep you guessing, which is awesome. Powerful stuff indeed.

Here is one of their earlier ep's Supernova. I was going to post their s/t album but i lent it to a dickhead friend and never saw it again!
