Been digging this one, a new find-- new EP by Berlin's WET DREAM WAR MACHINE. Kinda punk, kinda noise, kinda metal, this one is catchy, weird, ragey, everything good about music like this. Real raw, nasty sound. They have a couple earlier releases I still gotta check out, too.

Just finished "The First Rule of Punk" by Celia C. Pérez. A great book about adolescent identity, complicated (but benign) parental relationships, punk rock, and zines. A really nice cozy book, with some low-stakes drama and a lot of heart.

Had a dream last night that I was the maraca player in a punk band that exclusively performed covers of 1940s ragtime music.
Oh - and the band's name was "Shit-stained Assholes" if that makes any difference.

That cringe Apple-commissioned Erick The Architect app store rap at the end of the WWDC keynote has gotta be conceptually & culturally one of the farthest points hiphop has come/turned from its original roots. Pure cultural re-appropriation, like a Punk song commissioned by the Tories or Consolidated performing at Turning Point. Sampling the aesthetics of a (sub)culture whilst voiding everything it stood for, leaving nothing but an empty husk, facade, stylistic symbols. It's not the firs…

Les Ladazz 1989-1993 (2022)
Les Ladazz was a French garage punk/DIY band from Strasbourg, active from 1989 to 1993. This is pretty much all I can find about this band. Never heard of them til a friend played this on his show. They have a familiar sound with some unique quirks.
This retrospective album features a rotation of singers and musicians over the band’s lifetime and was released only on Bandcamp.
«Born To Kill» es el título del nuevo disco de Social Distortion, la banda neoyorquina de punk-rock. 15 años pasaron desde el anterior šlbum «Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes».

I read it wrong (thanks medication!) but would have chosen IBM.
To be fair, Apple started in a garage, like many of the best punk bands do.
But in 2026? None of them.
Just finished "The Terraformers" by Annalee Newitz (@…). It was recommended as a "solarpunk" book, and I'm currently on a quest to find more speculative fiction as good as Le Guin or Butler, so I was eager to dig in. Having tagged the author (hi) I'll try to be polite here, but I'll admit I was disappointed.
Newitz clearly has a powerful imagination and there's lots of great stuff in the book, but it's not at all pushing boundaries in terms of imagining future societies. I think the message and intent was good in a lot of places, but off or self-contradictory in others. I absolutely adore the relatively small point made at the end about revolutions being complicated and not boiling down to heroes and battles, but despite the book's attempt to avoid that, I think it still falls into that pattern. Without too many spoilers, the way that some big problems are resolved near the end leans too much on a legal framework without questioning how it's enforced, and that resolution then means that a few heroic acts are enough to tip the balance, which undermines the point about messy histories.
The biggest contradiction of the book to my mind though is with a central theme. The book really explores a world in which "anyone of any species can be a person, as long as we just bioengineer them to be intelligent enough," and it tries to make a point about how engineering limited intelligences is cruel. At several points characters comment about how personhood shouldn't depend on intelligence. There's even a brief quote about how maybe rivers could be people... But... the point could have been "anyone can be a person, regardless of intelligence." This would have made for much more interesting philosophical territory to explore IMO (how do we then bound personhood; how do we reconcile predator/prey relations between persons, etc.). These are also questions that the indigenous traditions Newitz draws on (and consulted about, as mentioned in the acknowledgements) has interesting answers for, but we don't get to explore them through Newitz' world, and because the question of personhood regresses to the question of intelligence, it feels like the moral philosophy of the ERT folks isn't any better than the "InAss" they disparage.
It's not a bad book overall, even if it doesn't engage with the questions I'm hungry to see others engage with. Newitz' efforts to sketch out a more vibrant and diverse future are still monumental and inspiring in a lot of ways. I'm just still looking for something more. Ultimately, I think it lives up to the "solar" but not very much to the "punk."

I didn’t realize that Jerry Brown was Governor of California from 2011 to 2019 because I knew the Dead Kennedys were singing about him being Governor in the 1980s. I guess he was also Governor from 1975 to 1983. I need more modern day punk songs to educate me about elected officials.

Plaster Head - “The Cult is a Work in Progress” (2025)
Interesting new post-hardcore punk rock trio from New Jersey.
This is their only album, and this is my favorite track. I hear a lot of mid-80s indie rock mixed with some early 80s post-punk (angular guitars, some clean, some highly distorted). The modern sound gives it a real punch too.
The one review on this BC page says this is the new Fugazi. C’mon, man! It's good, but let's not get crazy here. Well worth a…
This is a great new EP by Jacksonville's punk/hardcore maybe powerviolence outfit ST. CLOVIS. Short, angry blasts of songs- seriously, 6 songs and only one is just barely over the one minute mark. Gotta love it.

Palais Schaumburg - “Herzmuskel" (1982)
German new wave band that was active from 1980 - 1984, featuring F.M. Einheit, the percussionist from Einstürzende Neubauten.
This track is from a live album released in 2017.
It’s a really cool mix of post-punk and new wave with electronic influences.

I feel bad for any punk band touring the Midwest this week in a 20 year old van that doesn't have working AC.
I might go see Rumkicks tonight.
My issue is is it`s quite expensive and they are only the pre-opening band.
The mainliners are The Casualties, a vintage Punk band. A cool band but I don`t know them much.

Middle school punk band with an anti-AI song.
"I won't be a slave to AI
It's time for us all to step out of line
Free your mind and look to the sky
End the code and blind the cyber eye
There's a crisis in the nation
Gotta break free from the simulation
The truth is music comes from the soul
Unplug, join in, take back control
Artificial Intelligence
Can't know the human experience..."
I don't always dig splits, but this punk one from High Ideals and Wasted Boys is pretty damn good. Kinda MDC or Jerry's Kids feel. These are some wild, fast ragers, and each band does one cover.
