Unite Against Society are going to release their fourth album in DIY style on digital platforms but also on LP.

On Demons Run Amok will be out EP from Dutch band Bent out of Shape.

The fourth album of this Brno punk rock band is called Zpověď (Confession), it is again self-published and you will find ten songs on it. Zpověď is probably because singer and guitarist Rorýsek had an accident years ago and took a long time to get back together... you can hear all that right away in the first song. On two songs (Zpověď and Vzpomínej - Remember) Ketty makes a guest appearance as a great complementary female vocalist. Compared to previous albums, I praise the greater use of acoustic guitar and more songs in a slower tempo, for example the almost ballad Vzpomínej, which is about the emptiness after a breakup, or the very first Zpověď, which is truly brilliant thanks to the solo guitar and singalong. The CD contains some great ultra-melodic songs at random, such as the anti-war Prach a Dým (Dust and Smoke) with a great bass solo (which also has a video clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dtDB0BZZZI), Švihák lázeňský (Spa Dandy which tells about Rory's convalescence in baths :)) or Pes (Dog). Other interesting things are Omerta, which is dedicated to American mafiosi, Železnej hotel (Iron Hotel), for friends who are behind the bars (again with a great guitar/bass) or the harder Co se za všim skryvá? (What is hidden behind everything?) with a booming steel-sounding bass. The booklet is nice, with lyrics, thematic photos for them and a photo of the band with greetings on the back. This is simply great, great music and lyrics that are both funny and serious and personal and it is clear that the band has matured like wine/beer/spirits. In addition, there is also a best-off LP that maps the band's work since 2013, which will be reviewed later. You'll definitely be hooked after that.

The VeeBees are an Australian punk rock band that has been playing for about 25 years and has five albums and a whole series of EPs, split EPs and singles. This EP contains two songs, Third in Line for the Throne and Yeah Orright and is limited to 150 copies on silver vinyl. Take Toy Dolls, give them a bit of a rougher sound and more booze and you have roughly the sound of The Vee Bees (which is an Australian beer brand, by the way). Try to check them on YouTube and you will see that they are great bunch of lads who don´t spoil any joke. The first song has a great drive, a super boosted guitar and bass sound and is about how you stand in front of a public toilet and what you don't learn from the walls where great wisdom is written. The second track Yeah Orright is a slower song, both lyrically and musically, in the style of classic rock. Otherwise, the band plays in a standard four-piece line-up. Inside you will find a paper with lyrics, a promo photo of the band, where the singer is sitting on a porcelain throne :) and a beer coaster, a patch and a badge. A great music for letting off steam.
