FÉNWÄR - St Lp - DEVIANCE/ BLASTING DEAD/ BOURRE PIF/ ZONE ALTERNATIVE/ KEPONTEAM/ LA SOCIÉTÉ PUE/ LADA/ DIY KOLO/ MANGE TON MAÎTRE/ SHUT UP & PLAY THE MUSIC - 2024 X ''What really matters for me in anarco-punk is the DIY and non-profit ethic, and a certain form of generosity. But clearly, I don't give a damn about the social revolt and class struggle aspects - I'm still a die-hard individualist, who only loves his fellows as individuals, but loathes them as a group. As for your music, your Up In Flames reminds me of Heimatlos ' NBC , a song that has ever been in my personal punk-hardcore pantheon.'' That was essentially what I told Toffy Patatrak , the bassist of the anarco-punk combo Fénwär , when he expressed his surprise at my offer to help release their album. ''It's not that bad, and we'll be delighted to accept your support'' he replied. Some nice, open-minded people. So the deal was done, overcoming a political stance s...

SILICONE VALUES - How To Survive When People Don't Like You And You Don't Like Them Lp - SDZ Records - 2024 X Favorite punk album of the year ? Yesss, without a doubt ! One of the best of the decade ? Yeah, for sure ! It's been four years since the British band Silicone Values started uploading hit after hit to the immaterial world of Internet. It was about time that the fifteen or so tracks they've already written found their way onto vinyl. And that's great news! Because if this Lp-compilation is a sonic masterpiece, as jubilant as it is ecstatic, it will also remain forever as a testimony to the faultless story of a collective with sharp tastes, purveyor of catchy riffs and melodies, eager to explore new musical avenues, and whose members share the same state of mind - the only one that still makes us deeply love punk rock. In terms of sound, it’s as if the Silicone Values crew had wanted to write the perfect, definitive synthesis of this musical movement kno...

LA SÉLECTION DE TONTON JOUV !  (Avril/Mai 2024) François Jouvenaux hails from Mont-de-Marsan, in the Landes region of France. He kicks the drums in the Aquitaine combos Wild Zéros and Holeshots x ,  plays the bass for the Heartbeeps , and accompanies Perpignan-based  Lord Diabolik on his tour. That’s enough to say that he knows a thing or two about garage, 60s rock, psychedelism, '77 punk, garage-punk, surf and mod music. On his social networks, he also regularly writes great reviews of recently released records. References abound, and they always hit the point. It would be unfortunate if all these testimonials were to disappear forever into the limbo of the internet or because of our daily scrolling... So we're going to give them a second life and host them for a while in these columns. Here’s Tonton Jouv's first Selection, a collection of his reviews from the last two months.   François Jouvenaux nous vient de Mont-de-Marsan, dans les Landes. Il officie de...
