[Punk This Week](https://see-saw.fun/tag/podcast/) *is see/saw’s weekly podcast from co-hosts Evan Minsker and Nina Corcoran—a discussion of the latest and greatest in the world of punk rock. We talk about six new punk records we’re loving from the past week.*

Do you know about [Life](https://life9.bandcamp.com/album/my-heart-the-dreaming-memory?ref=see-saw.fun)? We do! This week, Evan and Nina bring a highlight from the Chicago screamo project’s unceasing recent output and a stellar, intense, radical new high watermark for New York City’s [Kaleidoscope](https://lavidaesunmus.bandcamp.com/album/cities-of-fear?ref=see-saw.fun). We also discussed new ones from [Sex Germs](https://crewcuts.bandcamp.com/album/whiplash?ref=see-saw.fun), [Gype](https://gype.bandcamp.com/album/gype?ref=see-saw.fun), [Johnny Skin](https://inscrutablerecords.bandcamp.com/album/johnny-skin?ref=see-saw.fun), and [Kaput](https://kaputband.bandcamp.com/album/i?ref=see-saw.fun).

Read Leor Galil’s [*Chicago Reader* feature](https://chicagoreader.com/music/concert-preview/sadness-debut-beat-kitchen/?ref=see-saw.fun) about Life’s Damián Antón Ojeda and Gem Fair’s [see/saw interview with Evinspragg](https://see-saw.fun/evinspraggs-synth-punk-soliloquies-will-outlast-the-egg-war/).
