It’s already 16 years since JOEY RAMONE, iconic frontman of punk pioneers RAMONES passed away. He was only 49! To remember this super cool dude here’s a hilarious 1999 interview with Joey telling some great stories from the early days…

COCAINE PISS – Belgium’s Noise Sensation Shares New Clip For ‘HAPPINESS’…
Clips that will impress your ears and your eyes…
‘Happiness’ by COCAINE PISS
Last September spectacular drone punks COCAINE PISS from Liege, Belgium released their dynamite debut album ‘The Dancer’ produced by legendary noise expert Steve Albini. The band went all the way to his famous Chicago studio to can the record. Result: fourteen primal scream explosions in twenty-one minutes. And even better than this thunderous
LP are the band’s concerts. Led by the amazing, socially outspoken borderline frontgirl
Aurélie Poppins, always communicating with members of the crowd eye-to-eye, the band are a smashing body/mind experience when playing live. To keep the heat going they just shared a mad clip for one of the dynamite thwacks on the album. Here’s HAPPINESS…

THE BLACK ANGELS Drop Third Striking Track From New Album – Here’s …’HALF BELIEVING’
Fresh sonic impulses for body and soul…
After Currency and I’d Kill For Her, two monumental crackers, Texan psych gang THE BLACK ANGELS share a third track from their upcoming, fifth, longplayer DEATH SONG,
out 21 April via their new label Partisan Records. HALF BELIEVING is a slow one and is moodier in sound & atmospherics than the two other songs but as gripping and powerful in spirit. Seems like the band is on its way to a masterpiece album. Here’s the scary clip for Half Believing…

23 Years Ago Today OASIS Released Their Smashing Debut Single ‘SUPERSONIC’…
When timeless in sound and vision…

‘Supersonic’ by OASIS
Released 11 April 1994
I still remember that moment, back in 1994, when I heard OASIS’ stunning debut single SUPERSONIC for the first time on Studio Brussels, a Belgian alternative radio station. Its
in your face rock swagger, Liam‘s powerful ‘I’m mad for it’ voice and the euphoric lyrics knocked me out on the spot. They truly sounded like nobody else at the time. Sharp,
loud, untouchable and bloody cool. Electrifying Guitar Rock was back! I instantly felt
that something really special was going on. Four months later I traveled to London
to experience one of the best gigs ever in my life…
‘I need to be myself / I can’t be no-one else /
I’m feeling supersonic / Give me gin and tonic”
Discover The Thunderous Power And Fierce Intensity Of Belgium’s Noisy Engine… IT IT ANITA
Vibes that thrills us in a way we want to scream out loud…
Over the past few weeks I already did a couple of features, here on this blog, on this spectacular band’s new LP ‘AGAAIIN’ and their incredibly hammering power on and
off stage. IT IT ANITA is simply the most exciting live band of the moment – for my
ears and eyes – on this planet. Their storming psychedelic jams are hypnotizing and
their clamorous vocals are mind-twisting. They generate a stupendous thunder, on
and off the podium. This gang is a non-stop hard rockin’ force. A truly impressive, magnetizing and high-voltage Grand Prix bolide. HELL YEAH! Here are the clips for
two of the album’s slashing crackers. Turn It Up!…
