SWAMI JOHN REIS (California, USA)
A pillar in the California punk scene, Swami John Reis has been in influential bands such as Drive Like Jehu, Rocket From The Crypt, Hot Snakes, Night Marchers, Swami John & The Bed Of Nails. Now, he is back with LP “Time To Let You Down” - a savage blast of junk shoppe punk that kicks all within earshot in the ding ding.
LIQUIDS (Indiana, USA)
This is gonna be a wild one... I loooooooooove Liquids, the perfect blend of hard garagey punk with all kinda misc thrown in... YESSSSSS
"Blasting out of the industrial wasteland of Northwest Indiana, LIQUIDS is a chaotic punk/rock ‘n’ roll wrecking crew dedicated to raw energy, reckless abandon, and pissing off anyone within earshot. Combining the ferocity of hardcore, the swagger of garage rock, and the nihilistic humor of a band that knows they’ll never be your favorite, LIQUIDS vomits out short, sharp shocks of noise designed to leave bruises—both sonic and psychic.
With a reputation for unhinged live shows and a discography that sounds like it was recorded in a trash compactor, LIQUIDS doesn’t care if you hate them—in fact, they probably prefer it. Whether they’re your 3rd least favorite band or just the soundtrack to your next bad decision, one thing’s certain: they won’t stop."

ROWDY (Scotland/USA)
These seasoned rockers are dealing out a heavy dose of song-forward classic garage punk that sounds like a mixed bag of Joan Jett singing for Teengenerate and Roky Erikson and The Aliens covering Oblivions.This is no surprise as Rowdy is formed by members of legendary Austin band Hex Dispensers and Scotland's Goldie Dawn.

GIMIC (Bristol)
Possibly my fave hardcore band knocking about at the moment, perma coil spring tense bouncing off the wall ideas executed to perfection but still feeling totally wild. Nobody quite like it knocking about atm, seriously... Nailed it at JT Soar fest last year, super excited to get em to JT proper.. Their 7" We Are Making a New World is 10/10.. Glad they've just done a repress I think I've worn mine out.. perfect slab of hardcore/post punk/misc.. YESSSSS
