Born on the banks of the Delaware River, Bovine Social Club booked their first show before they ever rehearsed. The Bovine’s project is a grassy, funky, punky, twangy, dancy, fancy breed of sounds sure to get you mooing. The songs, the beats, the amps, and the volume: violin, banjo, twangy guitars, drums, and double bass played by one hellava wicked lineup of seasoned jam musicians backing the lyrics of lead singer Samuel Saint Thomas.

The GC5 (Grady Coffee Five) was a punk rock band from Mansfield, Ohio, formed in 1997 and split in 2003.
The GC5 provided a political charge to their music comparable to that of The Clash and Stiff Little Fingers. Lyrics included themes of social and political discontent, leftist politics, and the struggle of the working class. In 2000, The GC5 released their debut album Kisses From Hanoi, and in 2001, the band released the EP Horseshoes and Handgrenades. In 2002, the band released the album Never Bet the Devil Your Head. While most definitely presenting the sound of the streetpunk genre, the album was noted for not relying on the street fighting, hard-drinking themes that overruns many of the genre’s songs. In 2003, Thick Records re-released their two albums Kisses From Hanoi (which was out of print) and Horseshoes and Handgrenades (which was originally only available as an import) on one CD. It was the final release from the band…READ MORE

Vincent Eugene Craddock (February 11, 1935 – October 12, 1971), known as Gene Vincent, was an American musician who pioneered the styles of rock and roll and rockabilly. His 1956 top ten hit with his Blue Caps, “Be-B
op-A-Lula”, is considered a significant early example of rockabilly. He is a member of the Rock and Roll and Rockabilly Halls of Fame…read more

The Sultans of Ping FC are an Irish band formed in 1988 by Niall O’Flaherty, Pat O’Connell, Paul Fennelly and Ger Lyons. The band’s name is a play on the Dire Straits song “Sultans of Swing”, dating from a time when “it was sacrilege to say anything whatsoever funny or nasty about Dire Straits”.
Following a number of line up changes the band came to the attention of the UK and Irish music press, when the humorous pop-punk song “Where’s Me Jumper” was released. After several other independently released singles, the band signed to Epic Records, through a deal organised by Rhythm King Records’s Martin Heath.
With Epic, the band released their debut album Casual Sex In The Cineplex, and its follow up Teenage Drug. Already a cult hit in the UK, by this time The Sultans Of Ping were also becoming popular in Japan, with many tracks gaining release in that market only. The latter album was called Teenage Planet Sexy War in Japan, and included the single “Michiko”…Read More

All-girl Russian punk band rages against Putin
Jan 26 01:45 PM US/Eastern
Wrapped up against Russia’s midwinter in vivid balaclavas, brightly coloured minidresses and not much else, eight members of an all-girl punk group stood on a platform in Red Square and started an impromptu show.
“Riot in Russia!” they screamed, before taunting Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and urging Russians to hit the streets in protest.
The band, Pussy Riot, has been gaining Internet notoriety after their January 20 gig of sorts, the latest in a string of impromptu performances to protest Putin’s candidacy for the presidency.
The radical feminists’ eyecatching show in front of Saint Basil’s Cathedral lasted mere minutes, but long enough for them to let off smoke flares, wave a flag and strum an unplugged guitar. Police let the women play a short song lampooning Putin — twice — before detaining them…READ MORE
