punk this week: dry socket, censer, king tuff, stuck + 13 more
Downtown Boys, Billiam, SUX, Spiritual Law, the Antics, Mother Nature, and more ring in see/saw’s second year of existence.
Hey, it’s Punk This Week, a column about new punk and rock’n’roll records. This weekend marks two years of see/saw. There are a couple parties in Minneapolis. The first one’s at a warehouse tonight (Friday March 27), the big year 2 party is at Eagles 34 on Saturday and features the Sleaze reunion, Bermuda Squares’ final original lineup show, and five more deeply sick bands. Next week I’ll probably write some reflections, but for now, I’m extremely grateful for everyone who’s been supportive of this thing I do. Come to the shows if you can. For now, let’s get into the good new records.
see/saw is an independent reader-supported punk publication, and continued support from readers is the only thing that keeps the operation afloat. That’s why this weekly column is exclusively available in full to those who subscribe for $4/month, $40/year, or barter (hit me up). Punk This Week, bonus podcasts, and the full see/saw radio archive are what’s behind the paywall. There’s free stuff, too, if you want to subscribe for free.
Dry Socket: Self Defense Techniques [Get Better]
Portland’s Dry Socket open their new album with these words, screamed repeatedly and desperately: ”Tired of being scared, exhausted by their hate, no longer living to appease and placate.” This is righteous, furious hardcore by a band screaming about the boot pressing further and further on all of our necks, performed with precision and engineered gorgeously.
