Backstage [melodic pop punk, Slovenia]


Influences We were influenced mostly by late 90's fat wreck and burning heart bands

Sounds Like Nofx, Bad religion, Pennywise, Millencolin, No Use For a Name

А знаете ли вы, что в Словении тоже любят мелодичный панк рок? При чем не всякую там новомодную долбежку, а заводное такое музло, ну как на фэт рэке в конце 90-х было и на эпитафе чуть раньше. Да, вот, например, Backstage даже играют такой панк рок и хорошо у них получается, слушаешь - душа радуется.

Who's Up Next [female vocal, pop punk, USA]


Influences William Hung, Screeching Weasel, Toxic Vomit, The Lillingtons, Teen Idols, Teenage Bottlerocket, Weston, The Oneders, The Queers, NOFX, Squirtgun, Plinko, Logik, Chumba Wumba, The Unlovables, Face to Face, Blink, The Ramones, The Riverdales, Sludgeworth, Green Day, Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters, Operation Ivy, Sicko, Social Distortion, MXPX, The Descendents, Weezer, The Methadones, Zoinks, Crash Test Dummies, The Parasites, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett

Что можно сказать о группах играющих трехаккордный поп-панк? Не так уж много, на самом деле. Who's Up Next это коллектив из Аризоны во главе с девушкой-вокалисткой. Женский вокал плюс конечно же характерное музыкальное сопровождение вызывают стойкие ассоциации с такими командами как Unlovables, Spazzys и Dirt Bike Annie. В целом очень даже неплохо. Слушается без напряга.

Brubeck [melodic punk, pop punk, New Zealand]

Brubeck started in 1996. They shared the stage with a wealth of top punk rock bands from around New Zealand and the world. The energy of the band was best captured live.

Мне почему-то кажется, что о панк сцене Новой Зеландии знают далеко не все. Один хороший человек оттуда любезно поделился со мной альбомами некоторых местных коллективов и, знаете ли, среди них довольно много интересных команд. Наверное моей любимой группой из НЗ является именно Brubeck. Это великолепный мелодичный панк рок корнями из 90х. Лично мне они показались наиболее близкими по звучанию к австралийским командам того же времени. Думаю, сходство с Kerb и Game Over весьма ощутимо. А вообще, Brubeck являлись одной из ключевых фигур новозеландского панк рока конца 90х - начала 00х, о чем свидетельствуют выступления с панк звездами первой величины.

Without Brains (pop punk, fast melodic / Moscow, Russia)

Молодая и неожиданная команда из подмосковья под названием Without Brains.

Меня лично радуют конечно же скорости, редкие но меткие распевочки, необычный вокал, простенькие тексты песен, а также свежее звучание, как для сцены СНГ.

Presenting to you guys new and astonishing band from Moscow, Russia.
These guys call themselves Without Brains, and it seems to be truth.
I found their sound pretty new and fresh as for the band from Russia. First of all I like speed of the songs. Also they have a bit of harmonies in couple of songs.
Vocals seem unusual, lyrics are simple and sometimes funny.
Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did when I first heard from them.

I Did Fine (skate punk, hardcore punk / Helsingborg, Sweden )

картинка, оставленная пользователем
Фирменная Швеция, пацаны!
Налетай.


Цитата:
We started the band back in '96 or something. Got a new drummer around '98, and things started to get serious. After a couple of demos and some cooperation with Posh Boy Records the band disbanded in 2002.

In 2003 Peter joined the hardcore/punk act When We Fall from Gothenburg and Andreas gave birth to a post hardcore band called LOS. After four years the members of LOS decided to end the band. R.I.P.

By this time Andreas and Daniel is in the process of bringing I Did Fine back from the dead. Who the other members will be is not yet set. Hopefully Peter and Martin can be involved in some way.

There are two old songs to listen to here. Those two songs are from the latest demo. Be sure to check in here for some new songs. Hopefully we can have two new songs uploaded in a month.

See you all in the pit!!!
Andreas, IDF

A-OK (hardcore punk / Curitiba, Brazil)

картинка, оставленная пользователем

Весьма старая бразильская групп из города-мечты Куритиба!!! (http://repil.livejournal.com/6044.html)
Поют весьма драматичным вокалом и это, наверное, то что мне в них не нравится smile.gif



Цитата:
A-Ok started in Curitiba, in the year of 1997. Since then, it's already been 9 years on the road, building a nome wich today is very well-known, respected and registered in Brazil's Underground Music History and abroad. By playing with a lot of passion, a unique sound style and great stage skills playing live, they make the audience go wild. Each performance is one of a kind, and it keeps getting better and better. All over the press, A-Ok has been considered as one of the best bands in Brazil. Their releases include participation in a few collections (pressed and virtual ones), a 5-track demotape and an independent 9-track CD. These last two releases were very-well accepted by their hometown crownd. Their first oficial release was the CD "Aprecie com Moderação" in 2001, released with "Terceiro Mundo Produções Fonográficas" (at the time, it was property of the band Dead Fish from Espírito Santo). This CD was the one that opened all the doors for A-Ok. The band started being more played and well-known in more serious ways of communication, recorded a video-clip and they could finally show their live performance in most of Brazil's major cities, with an excelent acceptance and posterior demand all over Brazil's territory. Their second official album, released by São Paulo's Nitroala Records in 2004, is called "Absurdo". Guitar duels, sincronicity and a hell kitchen and melodic and agressive vocal lines stabilish even more A-Ok's sound persona and brings foward the technichal habilities of each one of its members. As a reward for all this work in 2004, the band was invited to represent the Brazilian Hardcore (sang in good and old Portuguese) em foreign lands. They amazed them all. The Eruopean tour went through 4 countries (Germany, Netherlands, Austria and Tcheq Republic) and brought an unique experience to the band. A-Ok impressed with their style, technique, skills and the result of that were countless invitations for a second-coming and future record deals. 2005 was the year of the long-waited 3rd album, "A-Ok ao vivo" (the Live album). The best sound professionals in Curitiba working with a single goal: to put on a record all that A-Ok is on stage and make the listener fell what the interaction between band and audience is like during the concert. That process made this moment last forever, sounding just like it was: flawless, no adjustments of sound corrections, and the final result was way better than the expected. 2006 is the year to explore its own bounderies. It's been already 6 months since the beggining of the new album's production, and the band promises to release something totally new and unexpected, as usual. The second European tour is already schedulled for September, this time with a better structure and a public that already knows their music. Doubtless, A-Ok has marked its own style in the World Underground Music, and today it is among the greatest and most important underground band names. Its music, its lyrics and its passion for rock, showed each and every concert, have become a reference and an influence to the new generation day after day, all over Brazil, and now, all over the world. || aok@aok.com.br www.aok.com.br www.fotolog.net/aokrock www.tramavirtual.com.br/a-ok www.purevolume.com/aokrock
