Coucou, les chaton.ne.s! It’s been awhile. A really…while…(is this grammatically correct?). Bref, lots of things have happened lately.

So do we?). Damn. Every year gets better. Hell yeah. Most of the content of this entry already has been featured here in the blog throughout these last 12 months, some other will be « brand new » since they were in queue and also were meant to be here some months ..read more

Coucou, les chaton.ne.s! We’re final-fuckin’-ly back with a brand new entry. We’ve been really busy lately and we couldn’t update the blog before, but, don’t worry, we always try to compensate our (un)justified absences with some fresh hardcore punk releases from different countries around the world (well, at least we try to cover everything up considering our limited resources and possibilities ha!). Now, during the first three months of 2023 (Damn! Time surely flies by…), we noticed that a very good amount of records have been released and some of them were in queue, patiently waiting for be ..read more

Coucou, les chaton.ne.s! We’re final-fuckin’-ly back with a brand new entry. This is the third part of our special post about an attempt to retell the history of powerviolence in LATAM, and, just like its screamo/emoviolence counterpart, this entry wil focus on different countries in the region where, either by the size of their respective local hardcore/punk scene or the little or non-existent interest in the subgenre, powerviolence bands are really, really rare and thus not very popular. The fourth chapter will also be like this one. If you thoroughly have read the previous La Carencia-relat ..read more
