SUBHUMANS I’ve hit more than my fair share of punk rock shows in New York City, so I’d like to share a few pics and videos. First up, legendary UK punk, the Subhumans, hit The Meadows at the Brooklyn Monarch in NYC to kick things off. One of the things that always strikes me about […]
Buried at Birth is a hardcore, female fronted bunch from San Jose, California. I don’t know much about them, but thought I’d give them a little shout out on here just because they were cool enough to check out the show “Raw Travel” and “got it”… and let’s face it, the name is attention getting […]
Check this new song from our buddies, the former Russian interns… Well they are still Russian… and Latino members and they are the very talented Degrees of Freedom. Don’t let the piano intro fool you. You are going to want to keep the volume up as it builds intensity. If you dig industrial or goth […]
Christian Hardcore? Yes, it exist. Don’t believe it? Then check this film from Canada coming out next month called ChristCORE. Religion and punk… how do you feel about that? Here is the info on the film from the publicist. ChristCORE is an inside look at the explosive subculture of Christian hardcore music that is surging […]
Paris, France.. “City of Love”, the Eiffel Tower, great food and bla, bla, bla so many other things there is no use in listing them. Needless to say it’s one of the world’s most famous cities and for many good reasons. Fresh from my time in Cannes where (no I was not lounging by the […]
“We’re excited to have UPS! be our first band from the punk music hotbed of Eastern Europe” states Robert Rose, Founder of Punk Outlaw Records. “These guys have important things to say and our intention is to help them say it” Rose continued.
Good to see my old show “LatiNation” keeping punk on their radar screen. You’re smart, so you already know this, but most people don’t. Latin people do more than just listen to salsa, marengue and hip-hop.. yes, even in New York City. Enjoy!
While in Lima, Peru Punk Outlaw cameras were treated to a showcase by some from the Lima punk scene. This time around featured a couple of punk/hardcore bands including “Kondenados” and the hardcore band “Epidemia” (Epidemic) which is fronted by a petite muchacha named Monica with powerful vocals. The evening ended with a performance by […]
NYC.. why did I leave? The questions I’ve been asking myself this week as I ran from one hectic appointment to the next in incredibly beautiful weather. I can’t believe this was the place that just 9 months ago I was bitching about and so ready to get the hell out of. But that’s what […]
So I’m moving from NYC to the Los Angeles, but not before spending a few months in Latin America traveling and covering the punk scene for Punktology and working on a few other projects and in general, living out of a backpack. It might not surprise you to hear that moving sucks! Hell, you’ve probably […]
If you like hardcore punk you might just like this band from Medellin. Check out this new music video from my friends down in Medellin, Colombia, “Alkoholemia”
Here is some video of Colombian hardcore band Renkore at last weekend’s punk show in Medellin. Check out the dancing I referred to in my last post that seems to incorporate some martial art moves, maybe even capoeira? Is there a name for this anyone? Sorry for the delay on these videos, I have lots […]
MEDELLIN, COLOMBIA: July 7th, 2010 I promised you video from our coverage of Rock Al Parque in Bogota, and here goes our first clip. This clip features the very popular punk/hardcore band from Medellin, “Fertil Miseria” performing on July 4th at the big 3 day festival. Fertil Miseria was just my 2nd interview when filming […]
Waiting for the Los Suziox rehearsal in Medellin, I was able sit in on the last song from Medellin Punk Metal band “Infeccion Sikosis”, and was able to tape this wicked song. It was actually cold outside and the rehearsal studio was crazy hot, so the camera kept fogging up, so the video in the […]
Casualties Kicking ass in NYC at 11/19/09…
Is it Halloween or just a Misfits concert? Both! The legendary Misfits (what’s left of them) played BB King in NYC on Halloween night and it was a sweaty, hot, loud and smelly mess.. just like a good punk show should be. The Misfits played their two new songs especially written for the occasion now […]
