This song celebrates the friendship between these two bands. PARADISE ALLEY (England)'s frontman Steve Vincent met PLASTIC TEARS (Finland)' frontman Miqu December in 1992 at the Hellfire club in London. These weren't the best times for rock'n'roll, but there was still a scene and both vocalists were about to start their own bands. PARADISE ALLEY... Continue Reading →
CHEAP GUNSLINGERS formed in 2015 in Florida although their sound has more to do with 70s New York. They also seem to be influenced by The MODERN LOVERS as opening song "Record Store" suggests. Songs like "Good Time" and "Run Girl" make me think about mid-00s punk rock'n'roll bands such as The MYSTERY ADDICTS or... Continue Reading →

Two new songs by Norway's hottest new band RAZORBATS, well not that new now since they started in 2012 (but they've been through various line-up changes)! "The City" brings back a healthy dose of VAN HALEN and The ARK influenced melodies with a catchy teenage rock chorus. If GIRL was still around, they would probably... Continue Reading →

Opening on an 80s sax note, this new album gets on fire from the start with the RAMONES influenced "Let's Get Fucked Up" which already sounds like an anthem! Then, "The Perfect Time To React" and "Until Wrong Turned Right" (with some cool piano and killer sax solo) bring back a bit of a 00s... Continue Reading →
This is the release for the 25th anniversary of "Psychotic Playground" (limited edition picture-dic CD) and I'm ashamed to admit that I wasn't familiar with PARADISE ALLEY until now, maybe because they were among the bands that had an album out a bit too late... I can't even count all the great albums that were... Continue Reading →
L.A. glittery rock'n'roll dandies SMASH FASHION set the goals high with their previous album "Big Cat Love." They are back with this new 11 song album in which the 60s and 70s influences you heard in their previous record are still obvious. Opening song "Can't Take You Anywhere" has a bit of CHEAP TRICK in... Continue Reading →
Although NICOTINE PRETTY released two singles before, "Real Life Glories" is their debut EP (co-produced by Glunk Records.) Opening song "ByGone Boy" offers us some fine glam punk rock'n'roll reminding a bit of early MANIC STREET PREACHERS while "This Ship Ain't Going Down" show us the snotty street punk side of NICOTINE PRETTY. The band... Continue Reading →
