It is almost exactly 45 years to the day that I first saw Peter Hook wielding a bass on stage. It was Buzzcocks‘ Different Kind Of Tension Tour, Oxford New Theatre 30/10/1979 and Joy Division were the support. This punk-adjacent adolescent was already smitten by Buzzcocks‘ spiky, lovelorn melodies. Joy Division were a name, a curiosity...

Asking which is the album that producer and Hannibal Records founder Joe Boyd is best known for is like asking which album Bob Dylan is best known for: the result is a discussion no sober person wants to embark upon. Fables of the Reconstruction, maybe? Pink Moon? For Razorcake subscribers,...

It could be argued that the photographs of Murray Bowles were as just as integral to the 1990s East Bay punk explosion as the music. Growing up punk, I remember seeing Murray’s photos all over MRR (“they printed anything”) and the mind-boggling number of fantastic punk records coming out of...

A hefty collection of writings and interviews from the perspective that antifascism must be revolutionary, and a struggle between Them, Them, and Us. Simultaneously, the book’s primary strength lies in having a generally broad outlook, and contains plenty of self-criticism. It’s not just about punching Nazis in the face, though...

So the idea of Fangirl is more an ism, without the negative connotations of an ism, because Fangirl-ing is really just the pure passion, focus, and obsession over a band. This zine is all about “FANGIRL energy.” So all that, in a neat little package which gushes about Spells, a...

Well, John’s got the “concert review comic,” possibly an invented form at this level of idiosyncrasy, down to a science. Each show gets four to six panels (mostly), whether it’s the good, the great, the bad, or the ugly (and never does he dare to say so, but simply relies...

As advertised, this pamphlet—there’s really only four pages of content—gives diagrams and brief instructions on five different song forms: Box Spiral Song, Symbol Song, Waveform Song, Line Figure Song, and Triple Song. The diagrams are fairly crudely rendered in marker, and coupled with a few lines of typewritten text explaining...

I don’t know this venue (the New Brookland Tavern, “the most influential live music venue in South Carolina”). I don’t know (most of) these bands. I certainly don’t know these people. But I know these photos. It’s easy, in fact, to feel you know something through the photographic record, but...

It doesn’t get any more O.G. (original gang member) fun than The Loiterers Almanac. The October ’24 issue of this little hand-written one-sheet zine utilizes fantastically snide New York City sarcasm to mock the brutally soulless world of late capitalism we live in. Stories with headlines like “Wonder! Commodified!”; “Making...
