Play of the day is not your EX
I first listened to this band in 1980s and have been a huge fan since. It is the band that can do now wrong and certainly have done no wrong in all that time.
Play of the day is not ugly but it might bring tears
Luke, Nina and Greg are three friends who got together as people to play heartfelt punk rock songs. These songs are about parenting, relationships and not necessarily about changing the world. But in a funny way they are, Ugly Crier are part of a community that celebrates the normalcy of life and sing about the highs and lows of our journey through this world.
Play of the day is not an exclamation point
Pet Shop Punks Interrobang return with a new record. If you can’t dance to it, it’s not our revolution, and a bop around your front room while listening to music is no bad thing is it?

Mart are in the market with a new record
Music matter but for Mart it is the words and the actions that mean so much. Frontman N Kaos is a man on a mission, be that with his band, his gig organising or his radio show. N Kaos's way of life is spoken through puck rock actions. Mart's music through these 14 tracks is a menacing fast paced punk with nods to UK82 mixed with UK Decay.
Neurosis return with new album a decade on.
If a ghost train wasn't just a fairground attraction Neurosis would be the soundtrack in the speakers, fed through the train at top volume as ghostly figures desolate and gaunt made their way through the carriages. Hypnotic and scary we are made to suffer emotionally as this music is an anti-paean, not expressing joy or triumph but a stark reminder of the mess we have made as humans in this existence.
Rebellion 2026 Day 4 the end or the beginning?
One sign of a good festival is to see how enthused you are at the end for something new. Be that looking forward to next year or seeing something that happened that inspires you in some way. After Rebellion last year I vowed to take a different direction in my personal life. I left my … Continue reading Rebellion 2026 Day 4 the end or the beginning?
