Christian Ska, Punk, and Hardcore in Spanish
So a few months back, a Christian deathcore/hardcore band from Matamoros, Mexico took the scene by storm with their message of faith, hope, and love that comes through Christ our Saviour.

REVIEW : Young Poet - Thrive in a Modern Era
Punk rock and pizza are similar in more ways than one. While the two can complement each other quite well, music â like food â requires a recipe. Unfortunately, Young Poetâs Thrive in a Modern Era tastes more like a dubious experiment than a well-made pizza pie.
Opening song âAlizaren,â catches me completely by surprise with the spoken word akin to Being As An Ocean or Listener. I thought this was pop punk? Once âBetter Heartsâ comes on, I find out that it is ⌠at least, for the most part, in retrospect.… Continued →
