Music Shit / Re: chunklet releases unreleased cupid car club demos (free download)

« on: February 22, 2013, 01:41:18 PM »

Did he ever post the second tape? He said he was going to post more tapes but stopped abruptly, maybe bc someone in Getaway Car freaked out about that tape being available because they were embarrassed?! I don't know, but am writing this on the off chance that someone has the other cupid car club demo or the rodeo riders comp tape!

The very first time readers got their hands ink-stained with the pages of Maximum Rocknroll  was through the zine insert for the now-classic California punk/HC compilation Not So Quiet on the Western Front. Right from the beginning, MRR wanted to have its hands in everything DIY punk: zines, records, radio, show spaces, politics, and more. That locals-only double LP served as ground zero for both Maximum Rocknroll fanzine and Maximum Rocknroll Records. In that same tradition, nearly thirty years later, we present to you the Noise Ordinance  compilation LP!

This brand new Bay Area comp features some of the most exciting and dangerous sounds of the local scene over the past few years, including MORPHEME, NEEDLES, RANK/XEROX, NN, SHOTWELL, BLACK RAINBOW, SURRENDER, CONQUEST FOR DEATH, ACEPHALIX, AIRFIX KITS, RULETA RUSA, FACE THE RAIL, ECOLI, MIGRAINE, YEAR ONE, LOVE SONGS, SUICIDE BOMB, HUNX AND HIS PUNX, ACTS OF SEDITION, FIX MY HEAD, I WILL KILL YOU FUCKER, DUCK AND COVER, and the FLESHIES. And (of course) it comes with a newsprint zine-sized insert with a page from each band and some killer Bay Area punk photo spreads from local photographers. This LP is a limited to 1000 copies, 300 of which are on red vinyl available thru mailorder only!

Taking orders now for release on August 8th? PLEASE NOTE: Only one colored vinyl copy per order ? if you order more than one copy, one will be colored vinyl and the rest will be on black vinyl.

Another issue of Maximum Rocknroll is hot off the presses.

And don?t miss our interviews with Finnish hardcore champs YDINPERHE, doom inflected crust punk NUX VOMICA from Portland, Oakland mutants b, Southern California psyche-punks WHITE FENCE, and Swedish garage stompers BLACK FEET.

New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / new gun outfit 12" on make a mess

« on: March 02, 2011, 07:20:15 PM »

This is just some blurb I took off the PPM website, but gun outfit from Oly have a new record out on make a mess-it says preorder but it's shipping now..
GUN OUTFIT
Three-piece rippers that take you back to a time when riffs were weird and hooks were awesome. Honing in on influences from past greats like MEAT PUPPETS and DINOSAUR JR, GUN OUTFIT create their own sound that is equal parts melody, jangle, punk and pop.  Gun Outfit prevails, they sound like the new sound you wish you had as a teenager. Like a dream you were waiting for. Like a brand new 45 you were wishing for all month, it finally came in the mail, and it is better than you could ever think. They are very nice humans as well.

It?s the February issue of Maximum Rocknroll  ? #333, half way to the Number of the Beast! This issue?s cover stars are the WELDERS out of St Louis. Formed in 1975 by four teenage girls, they were arguably that city?s first punk band, and their recent, never-before-issued 7″ is exciting stuff? We also have an extensive interview with RAI KO RIS ? raging, feminist, anarchist punk from Nepal ? a report from ESKAPO?s  recent tour of the Philippines, and an interview with long-running Balkan hardcore heroes HITMAN. There?s a look at the recent  Touch & Go fanzine book with Tesco Vee, an interview with another teenage girl band from the 70s, the UK proto-twee pioneers DOLLY MIXTURE,  Australian garage maniax STRAIGHT ARROWS, and a look at punk-run record store Celebrated Summer. We also have two great scene reports: one that covers the Venezuelan punk scene from a historical and current perspective, and an Olympia, Washington scene report that, in old school MRR style, includes interviews with tons of local bands from that area, including MILK MUSIC, HPP, WEIRD TV, BROKEN WATER, GUN OUTFIT, RVIVR, HAIL SEIZURES, SON SKULL, WHITE BOSS, and the HYSTERICS. All of that plus the most extensive review section in punk! Get it or regret it?

« on: December 06, 2010, 03:44:14 PM »

Hey!!! It?s another exciting issue of Maximum Rocknroll! Why is it so exciting?! Because it?s the Punk Comics Issue!! That?s right! In our January 2011 issue (MRR #332), with the help of Janelle Hessig from Tales of Blarg acting as guest coordinator, we have compiled an issue jam packed with comics and interviews with artists who have helped shape the US punk scene with their medium. We have an illuminating article about the elusive and rumored still alive Shawn Kerri. She is the  amazing and original, though unsung artist behind some well-known Germs artwork and the famous Circle Jerks skankin? guy. Interviewed in this issue are the famed Jaime Hernandez of Love and Rockets, discussing the his characters, their bodies, their personalities and their origins; Gary Panter, who created the iconic Screamers image and some beautifully frightening characters; and Mimi Pond of the Mabuhay Gardens scene in the early San Francisco punk world. We also have a talk with Ed Luce, creator of Wuvable Oaf, on his hilariously funny, punk and stereotype-shattering ?post gay/post bear? work with collaborator Matt Wobensmith. Also featured are comics from Avi Spivak, Liz Suburbia, John Holmstrom, Bobby Madness, Dennis Worden, Cristy Road, Ben Snakepit, Ted May and Jeff Wilson, Janelle Hessig, Craig Bostick, Fly, Caroline Paquita, Jaime Crespo, Kaz, Josh Bayer, Ben Lyon, Alex Ratcharge, and Liz Baillie and a cover artwork by Eric Hone. And fear not ? we still have the most extensive record reviews section in punk, and all your favorite columnists!
