ARSE is a punk band built for the times. The Sydney trio’s genre-blasting tunes nail the modern condition in a way that's universal yet undeniably Australian all at once, as evidenced on Kaputt, the band’s most unhinged offering to date.
In 16 minutes of raw power, Kaputt skewers everything from climate denialism to crooked law enforcement. “Shame Bomb” channels Diesel and Dust-era Midnight Oil with a protest song about the destruction of Australia’s dead heart. Elsewhere, “Night Shift Blues” sounds as if Flipper slapped the Stooges. Then there’s the title track; equally indebted to classic ’80s hardcore and the scorching psychedelia of Tropical Fuck Storm and King Gizzard.

Gull House is a new punkband from Diest, Belgium. They put their favorite garage, hardcore and post-punk records in a blender, cranked up the speed, threw in some eggs and drank the kool-aid. The result: Short fast-paced tracks with the occasional heavy outburst and noisey part.

The Pedigree is a concept invented by man to make everyone believe that dogs should be judged by how they look instead of how well they can do things. In order to still look a certain way they will make dogs fuck their whole family and then you get really stupid dogs. Pedigree is multiple dogs from the same musical scene fucking each other for so long that you get this big stupid deformed beast.
