     Hailing from Bremen, DefektDefekt (https://www.facebook.com/defektdefektband) are a post punk trio who impressed me back in 2019 when they released a great album titled DEFEKT DEFEKT '79-'81 (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2019/06/defektdefekt-claustrophobia.html).    5 years down the line and they're still impressing me. This time around it's by way of a new album, this one's called Aardvark and straight from the opening track you can hear those early 80's UK post punk influences front and centre.    The album's available on ltd edition ..read more

     It's only a month ago that I last featured Sydney trio Itchy And The Nits (https://www.facebook.com/itchyandthenits) on Just Some Punk Songs. I posted a song from their upcoming album and said how much I was looking forward to it  https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2024/02/itchy-nits-square.html   Usually after posting something from a release I don't go back to it but this album, Worst Of, is so good I feel the need to shout about it again. It's a dozen sub 2 minute garage punk nuggets of gold. It's available on vinyl, cd and digital download from Tot ..read more

AnyMinuteNo - Playing God (Guest Review By Hg80)

     (Photo is by Ian Moss who photographs around 100 bands a year in his spare time, and runs a great site of his adventures in punk rock and elsewhere at https://www.punksnotdead.uk/).       As much as any 18 year old punk upstarts, the older guys who've been in half a dozen bands and have been gigging for years can be just as exciting. They've honed their skills and they're still pushing it because it's what they love.   AnyMinuteNo (https://www.facebook.com/AnyMinuteNo) are all veterans of the Swindon scene, and since they got togethe ..read more

Soapbox - Fascist Bob
Just Some Punk Songs

1w ago
     A couple of weeks ago I played a song on the show by a band from Glasgow called Soapbox. It got the chatroom talking. It was about how you can stand around for ages waiting for a bus and how things have got worse since privatization. It was the band's 3rd single and it provided something a little different from the norm (check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__aY-xHS8FI).    The band line up features Tom Rowan (Vocals), Jenna Nimmo (Drums), Angus Husbands (Guitar) & Aidan Bowskill (Bass). You can find their 1st 2 singles here : https ..read more

Hummer - Apocalypse

     A sad farewell today to Warrington melodic punk rock trio Hummer (https://www.facebook.com/hummerpunkrock).    They originally got together as a duo under the name S.F.R. in 2004 whilst still at school and it was only in 2015 that they properly coalesced into Hummer. Plenty of gigs followed along with a couple of eps and a 2020 album titled How Did I Get Here? In April 2022 though they played their final ever gigs (Though they admit there may (or may not) be a reunion in the dim and distant future).    They did however have a few songs written ..read more

     A few months ago I played a couple of tracks on the show by Sydney duo Finnoguns Wake (one of which, Blue Skies https://finnogunswake.bandcamp.com/track/blue-skies-5, ended up in the Just Some Punk Songs Top 100 of 2023 chart). I mentioned that the vocalist, Shogun, had once upon a time fronted Royal Headache (and what an awesome band they were   https://royalheadache.bandcamp.com/). He was also in short lived Shogun And The Sheets (https://shogunandthesheets.bandcamp.com/album/hold-on-kid-b-w-pissing-blood).   So given my immense liking for Shogun's soul ..read more

   (Photo by Jeff Pitcher)      Sooo, not a totally new band to Just Some Punk Songs, Mick played Mild Misogynist by these guys a few weeks back on the radio show, but this is their first blog entry, spurred on by a fantastic new single "ID'd At Aldi" and its brilliant video.   In the video The Baby Seals (https://www.facebook.com/thebabyseals) offer a visual shopping nightmare for the alpha male type, running around the supermarket filling their baskets with necessary feminine products (And wine, which is a necessary feminine product, and I won't entertai ..read more

Queer Of Hearts - Rich Man's War (Guest Review by Hg80)
Just Some Punk Songs

   A first guest review today by Hg80 who was a member of VideoX (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2023/12/videox-nice-guy.html) before departing to put together a new band called baitpuppy (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554993781998). I'm sure they'll feature on here once they release some music... Among a sea of Amyl and the Sniffers wannabes, Queer of Hearts (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087980448931) definitely stand out among the current crop of female-fronted punk bands as being that bit different. With their modern take on a UK82/D-beat sound ..read more
