see/saw’s top 54 punk + rock'n'roll records of 2025: a zine
Order your copy of this physical newsprint broadsheet with art from David Alvarado and writing from the best.
It’s been a genuinely unbelievable year for punk rock records, and every week, I’ve been exhaustively documenting the good stuff as it comes across my desk. But more importantly, I’ve been engaging with a greater community of sickos similarly revved up by this corner of the music world. I’m honored to have collaborated this year with writers, visual artists, bands, and heads.
Once again, the natural culmination of the year is a big physical broadsheet documenting the best punk and rock'n'roll records of the year. With artwork by David Alvarado, art direction from Tyler Nickell, and editing by me, I’m happy to announce see/saw’s top 54 punk + rock'n'roll records of 2025. Just like last year, I’m not putting this writing or list online.
The broadsheet features blurbs by Tim Abbondelo, Nina Corcoran, Martin Douglas, Jim Fair, Chris Favata, Luke Henley, Chris Landry, Evan Minsker, Zach Mitchell, Jenn Pelly, Lauren Rearick, Sydney Salk, Maria Sherman, Rocco Tenaglia III, and Cody Triplett. In addition to the 54 records covered, there’s a bunch more favorites named in the literal margins.
If you want to hold this in your hands, and trust me you absolutely do, order a copy here. Thanks for reading, and have a lovely holiday.
