I’m a sucker for complicated yet repetitive percussion, single note guitar riffs and great singing so this is kinda like the perfect storm for me. There’s a track called “singing” where Fabi Reyna talks about how she didn’t want to sing because she thought it would take away from her as a guitarist. I AM SO GLAD SHE GOT OVER THAT!!! Her voice is gorgeous, smooth in a Sade kinda way but even more intimate. Like you’re sitting on the couch while she’s singing in the same room! I’m absolutely desperate to hear these songs live.

This is just hitting the spot this evening! Absolutely amazing mix. Feels like everything I could ever ask for in this moment.

I want to be Juana Molina — though I’d settle for her hearing something of mine, closing her eyes for a moment, and feeling like she’s in the countryside at noon.

🔥I would say this is super listenable Political Punk, but I hate the idea that great bands with normal ideas like equality for everyone are “political” when really it’s everyone else who is being boring as hell while upholding the status quo. Lambrini Girls are way too musically wild and way too fun to be tied down to all these words anyways. Even better lyrics than Idles and I really like Idles. I know it’s not a competition but if it was….Take a deep dive into their interviews on YOUTUBE. You will not regret it.

🪩This ten song record from 2023 is already an underground classic. Is it surfy new wave punk? Punky Disco? Whatever it is IT’S FUCKING GREAT. Lira Mondal is the vocalist I want to hear everyday singing every song. The obvious musical comparison might be Pylon, but there’s also a poppy Romeo Void vibe that I’m fully addicted to. The best record of this year and it came out last year! hahaha!

🎸Like a great musical compilation that features a ton of different styles. From fiction by Honeychild Coleman and Hanif Abdurraqib to several great Roundtable Discussions called “No Whites on the Mic” that cover topics like how to start a DIY collective, what’s happening in the punk scene NOW and self care. I came for the great writing and the bands but came back again to fully enjoy the amazing comics and photos. This is one of those must have books like ‘Banned in DC’ and ‘Shotgun Seamstress; The Complete Zine Collection’.
