Out Of The Box On Sunday XXI

  listen to Grandma in the Trenches by s n e e z e

In this wave of pop punk bands appealing to the hardcore kids, I wanted to do my part in getting Sneeze (their blogpage), featuring members from L'Antietam, Genders and Ape Up, some attention. This band has a refreshing grungy sound added in the mix, so this record oozes with 90’s appresh!  When you get those grunge groove with punk rock sensibilities, it feels like you get a perfect balance of catchy music that’s just that bit less poppy and rocks out way grittier. Like a  mix between Nirvana’s song Territorial Pissings, Jawbreaker’s I Love You So Much It’s Killing Us Both or The Offspring’s SMASH-era.

Out Of The box on sunday XI (fixed!!)

  listen to Puss by The Jesus Lizard

ever wondered where bands like Daughters, These Arms Are Snakes and Young Widows got that what the fuck(ed up) sound from? that not sure if want awkward song-structures and vocals with seemingly random words and riffs. The kind that really grows on you! The Jesus Lizard (website) were doing it, back when Nirvana was still underground enough to do a split with such a band (which they did). rooted in the late 80's and early 90's alternative rock, their twist to it consisted of that sound of sheer insanity and al-ways catchy hooks. the latter may need to sink in, as it is smothered in the chaos and noise, so don't give up on it too soon.
