BRAT FARRAR
Taking his DIY approach to the ultimate level BRAT FARRAR comes rumbling out of a Melbourne bedroom with tunes that sound like they were recorded in 1979 over a cassette version of the first Wipers record. Leaving behind his previous life as frontman of Digger and The Pussycats, BRAT FARRAR has been reborn a one-man all singing all dancing, new wave machine.

THE ANOMALYS
The Anomalys from Amsterdam, Holland released their self-titled debut album on Slovenly Recordings in the USA in 2010. With this release they prove to be able to put their reputation as 'wildest live band in Europe' to wax. Their special brand of psychotic, unpredictable and primitive rock 'n roll has turned many audiences, from Istanbul to Las Vegas, into insane mobs. This rings true to the one and only mission of these three giant, hyperactive monsters: making rock 'n roll dangerous again! 2012 will see them releasing 2 new singles, one on Slovenly and a special collector's edition flexi disc on MV50 Records.

ZUCCHINI DRIVE
Zucchini Drive’s Marcus Graap and Tom De Geeter have a knack for cooking up surprising music from unlikely ingredients. From the onset of their collaboration in 2002, the pair tackled the challenge of melding the lo-fi acoustic sounds of De Geeter’s primary project, Cavemen Speak and the buoyant electronic landscapes of Graap’s Stacs of Stamina. Perhaps the group’s energy was evoked by this sonic dichotomy, or perhaps by the sheer distance between the two, (Swedish Graap and Belgian De Geeter did much of their work remotely, meeting sporadically in London, Paris, Brussels and in between). No matter the cause, Zucchini Drive emerged as an project of which change seemed be the only constant.

MOTHER'S CHILDREN
Even though Ottawa-based Mother’s Children have the name (and cover art!) of some sorta psych-folk band from 1970, they are in fact are a(n) insert macho-sounding compound-adjective preferably missing its final ‘g’ here rock n’ roll band who clearly love the same sort of half-punk/half-power-pop bands, like The Boys, The Flys, The Beat et al, that set the Exploding Hearts racing.
MONDO RAY
Pop-Garage as it has to be when it comes from southern germany by two indo-portugues Punkers.

NO PROBLEM
Once a man from Edmonton did six giant hits of acid and sat on the toilet to do a little light reading. He often skimmed through the newspaper’s headlines with a morbid curiosity for the obituaries. But today was different, the acid was quite strong, and when he looked at the recent entries he saw…his own name!!!!
STRANGE ATTRACTOR

FOREIGN OBJECTS
Boston band featuring former / current members of Libyans, Conversions and Ampere. The music is simple, catchy and to the point punk in the Dangerhouse tradition, but the vocals are what really sell this... incredibly unique and powerful, like Kathleen Hannah if she were really into Chavo-era Black Flag.

NEON PISS
Every song reminds me of something that I can't quite put my finger on, and still all of them sound entirely original. At different moments during my first listen, I clearly heard elements of COMPLICATIONS, NO HOPE FOR THE KIDS, JAY REATARD, WIPERS and others, but I stopped listening for references (in fact I stopped everything I was doing) and just listened.

EARLY MAN
When it comes the music of EARLY MAN, the formula is simple: riffs that detonate on impact, a rhythm section on fire and vocals that soar to Mt. Olympus.
It’s all about the delivery! Since releasing a jolting self-titled EP, their debut full -length, "Closing In," in 2005, and the much-awaited "Beware the Circling Fin" in 2008, the Brooklyn-based group has made a name for itself in the music scene, winning music critics and fans over with their straight-to-the-jugular rock attitude that champions the sounds of everything from Black Sabbath and NWOBHM to early Metallica and even punk rock.
TOXIC SHOCK
Toxic Shock plays 80’s thrash/crossover similar to styles of Suicidal Tendencies, Uncle Slam and Anthrax and consists of former members of Damaged Goods, Between the Lines, Richie Don’t Die and Bite Down.

REVEREND DEADEYE
The Reverend Deadeye is the Reverend’s son of a Reverend’s son. He spent his youth handlin’ snakes and performin’ at tent revivals alongside his Pentecostal family on the Navajo reservation in Arizona. This sacred musical heritage finds its way prominently into his performances. But don’t expect a Sunday mornin’ church service; instead, expect a Saturday night baptism with fire holy rollin’ revival. With his modified wok-lid resonator guitar, homemade beer can microphone, kick drum, and washtub snare, he delivers a punk-rock version of gritty pre-war delta blues which he blends with fiery gospel interpretations capable of turnin’ the whole room into a spirit filled bar room revival.

HAMMERS
Hammers are a UK hardcore band who play d-beat/crust punk in the essence of His Hero Is Gone and Tragedy. I recall them having a quote written somewhere that went something like "too punk to be metal, to metal to be punk" and I think that sums them up pretty well.

MAKABERT FYND
Makabert Fynd (who have released earlier records on Yellow Dog and Flat Black) play raw, straightforward hardcore in the tradition of old Swedish bands like Asocial and Avskum, but with huge, modern production. Of course these guys also boast Poffen of Totalitär as one of their vocalists, and fans of that band won't be disappointed.
