New HC from Bandcamp

Posting more on the blog wasn't one of my 2016 resolutions, but I should do more of it anyway.

This 3 song EP from a Parma, Italy hc garage punk band was originally put out on 7" back in April of '16. It sold out and now they've got a re-release available.

This 2 song EP from Shitty Life is due out on 7" from Euro Trash Records in March 2017:

From a 2 song sludgecrust effort, Black Aspirin are from Prague:

Podcast coming up later this month will feature some obscure vinyl as well as more recent material from the recently defunct OSR Tapes label.

Punk Out To The Max: French Crust, Puerto Rican Resistance, Synth-Punk from Dallas, Grindcore from the UK, and Wisconsin Fuzz

HC crust from France. This was released all the way back in 2004:

Puerto Rico's Enrique Lópe heads Krampus Records, is the Madd Blake of Madd Blake y Los Stalins, and has put out a lot of great stuff in the past few years. Here's a new project of his called República Bananera, "Resistance Songs From A Pre-Apocalyptic Puerto Rico":

Cool post-punk from Dallas, off an LP available on their bandcamp page. This is from last October:

Let's get down to it with this extreme heaviness from a UK band called Brainshit. This will be out soon, from a split cassette release along with a band called Anti-Social Behavior, courtesy the Mind Ripper Collective:

Fuzzy, poppy punk from Madison, Wisconsin. This was put out in 2011:

Weirdo Lo-Fi from Sweden and Japan, Garage-Psych from France, No-Wave from Brisbane, Argentinian Hardcore Punk, Jangle-Pop from D.C., and All Kinds of Punk from All Over Creation.

While waiting for Total War: SHOGUN 2 to dl on Steam (currently on sale for $12.49 and supposedly the pinnacle of the Total War games), I thought I'd finish up on December releases from bands and label I follow. These monthly updates might be getting a little repetitive, with a rotation of the same bands and labels every update. I'm working on that. Meanwhile, here's more of what you've come to expect from a standard CNQ update.

This awesome oddball lo-fi pop is the new solo project of Martin Månsson Sjöstrand, frontman of Sweden’s Dog, Paper, Submarine. Comes courtesy of perennial CNQ favorite Manx label Small Bear Records:

More weirdo lo-fi, this from Japan. I've featured Boys Age a lot in 2015. Cool, weird stuff:

No-wave from Brisbane's Moontown Records. I'm not sure where the band Bent is from though:

Glasgow freak-out:

Garage-psych from France:

More garage-psych by Boys, off a PNKSLM 2015 End of the Year Sampler:

Great jangle with a new video from Washington DC's Dot Dash:

Feminist punk from Olympia:

And more, this from a Bridge Nine 2015 compilation. War on Women are from Baltimore and I'll mention again, are a great live show:

New power pop from from Sweden. This sounds like it's from 1983 but I think it is new:

From Fort Wayne, Indiana:

Found this Argentinian crusty hardcore courtesy France's Crapoulet Records. This was released back in October:

Finally, this is from Puerto Rico's Krampus Records, who brought us one of my fave new bands of 2015, Madd Blake and the Stalins.

Thanxgibbin Mix

Still working my way thru email updates with this post.

First off, a new traditional Fangsgibblin' tune:

From a neat little collection of psych-pop songs put out by Chicago's Trouble in Mind Records:

I dig this bedroom pop From Minneapolis' Lawn Chair Records:

New weirdo stuff from Guiguisuisui, I think from New Zealand:

Incidental music from the score to a new independent movie called "Counting for Thunder." My dad turned me on to this guy from Shreveport. Per the bandcamp page, Futreal built some of the instruments used on this score, including the electric gourd, electric chromatic dulcimer, electric mountain dulcimer, and chromatic gourd dulcimer. The whole album is really cool listening:

Dan Deacon-esque tune from London, apparently this cat makes music on kid's toys and old synths:

The Bristles were a Swedish punk band in the 1980s who broke up in 1985, but got back together in 2008. This is from their latest album, released in late October:

Music video of Australian hardcore from do-no-wrong Lethal Dose Records:

New Punk: HC Crust, Grindcore, Synth and Garage...mostly from Dallas but a couple from Denton and one from Salt Lake City.

This show is going on right now in Fort Worth, I've been wanting to see Pavel Chekov for a while but fate keeps conspiring against me. This time, it's a Monday night and we just got back from vacation, so we're too pooped to party. Here's a song from each of the bands playing tonight:

Female fronted crusty doom from DFW:

From Denton:

"Progressive Crust" from Salt Lake City:

I've featured this track and other songs from Dallas' Pavel Chekov several times before, but they always bear repeating:

Anyway, if I wasn't such a boring wuss I'd just drive out to that show. This first song is from Denton, but the three after that are all new releases from Dallas:

Grindcore from a full length released back in March. Apparently these guys have been around for a while:

Brand new Spanish synth-punk:

Noisy garage, released October 30th:

International Rock'n'Roll Mixtape: 8 New Songs from Around the World

Lately, my posts featuring new music have turned into a bit of a broken record - new, cool tunes, but most of 'em from the same bands and labels I follow on Bandcamp and/or get email updates from.

So tonight, here's some rad new sounds from bands I've never heard before. A lot of them are from overseas and I think that's the tops, man, bless this internet.

These are all from today's new arrivals in the Bandcamp punk genre, and the theme is quick blasts of male-vocal punk, mostly garage-style and mostly lo-fi, but there's some hardcore and crusty stuff thrown in too. If that's your thing, enjoy! Otherwise, you know, I guess you shouldn't bother listening:

From Paris, France:

From Barcelona:

From Kunchukokhabl', Russia:

From Reykjavik, Iceland:

From Oslo, Norway:

From Cincinnati:

From Birmingham, UK:

From Toronto:
