The Holy Mess - Cande Ru Las Degas (2012)

I've been incredibly lazy about looking for new releases and even lazier about posting them here, but this one deserves to be posted inmediately. The Holy Mess are a band from the musically prolific city of Philadelphia and if you haven't previously tasted their tunes I would say that you're gonna love them if you enjoy bands like The Flatliners, Elway, Banner Pilot or Red City Radio. So energic, so catchy, so sarcastic and so fucking funny that you will put the album on repeat at minute one. This is their first LP and it could never disappoint their previous fans because it keeps the sound and the vibe of their early EP's. You should be grateful by now for this awesome band writing music and making it to your ears. If not, fuck off.

Cobra Skulls - Agitations (2011)

After listening to it for three long days online, waiting for the download to leak, here you got the third album from Reno's best punkers. Undoubtedly, a great work of energy and melody, plus this political rage and awareness that is the signature of the trio. They keep this slight rockabilly and country feel, plus some strange touches of ska or folk, and mantain their strong vibe of angry-with-the-war band. Listen it and give thanks to Peralta and his pals.
