Verspannungskassette #30 (2x C-60)
It looks a lot as if i'm gonna be occupied by something other than this blog for a few weeks so don't panic if things are getting a bit quiet here temporarily. At least i managed to shit out a new mixtape and since there's been a lot going on recently, i made it a double feature. Four sides with four rather different vibes. You'll hear from me again in a couple weeks.

F.E.I.D.L. - Wödmusik
Ooohkay… still recovering from yesterday's "deutschpunk" ambush, let's now focus on our foreign language / world music department again. "Wöd" appears to be austrian for "World", as well as "pretty fuckin' rad", at least that's what the internet says and the internet is always right. So yeah, this shit's pretty wöd, as you'd expect from the successor to the Vienna garage punk group's kinda leiwand 2020 EP.
Album-Stream →Dead Years - Dead Years
Not long after the kickass Schedule 1 EP we get to hear yet another group reviving the spirit of late 2000's / early 2010's melodic post punk, once again brought to us by the punk powerhouse that is Dirt Cult Records. This time the folks responsible are from, lemme see… Bielefeld, Germany?!? Are you fuckin' kidding me? No, no, no this can't be right. Musically this is your familiar, somewhat oldschool Wipers-influenced, song-driven approach and the songwriting chops on display here are more than able to pull that shit off. This is a hell of a treat for fans of stuff á la The Estranged, Anxious Living, Daylight Robbery, Xetas, Red Dons or, more recently DDR and the aforementioned Schedule 1.
Album-Stream →Sex Mex - Vol. 1
Their recent Skeleton/Runaway digital single was some quality shit already and a huge step up from previous releases. With their newest EP, the Austin, Texas group keeps the good stuff coming, clear highlights this time being the perfect power pop one-two punch The Amazing Super Ultra Spiderman & Shit Me Out but the rest is great fun too, coming across a bit like an amazing super ultra holy trinity of Ausmuteants, S.B.F. and Set-Top Box.
Rifle - Holloway Demos
A highly appetizing first taste that is, the debut EP of this London group playing a somewhat hard to pin down, adequately rough-edged yet also kinda catchy style that's like 60% garage punk and 40% postcore, overall reminding me of a rather diverse cluster of groups among which are the likes of The Abandos, Obits, Golden Pelicans, Mass Lines, Dumb Punts and Ascot Stabber.
Album-Stream →Die Verlierer - Mann Im Mond
Die Verlierer releases March 11th via Mangel Records.
