Review | Yaang - No by @ouchmonkey.bsky.social "Yaang are fully carbonated and unnecessarily caffeinated, they have a short attention span, a drum machine and at least one dubious moustache." echoesanddust.com/2025/03/yaan... @crackedankles.bsky.social

Pre orders for the vinyl edition of the forthcoming Whinge album come with a head figurine hand painted by one of the band. PLEASE NOTE - these heads will be discontinued on Wednesday 29th, so the band can get all the head painted ready for shipping the week after whinge.bandcamp.com/album/someth...

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣6️⃣ >> Hauspoints - Eel Feeling Art-rockin' post-punk for dancefloor kids and beard-strokin' audiophiles alike. Lyrics that make you think, scratch your head or laugh out loud in equal measure. #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024 @crackedankles.bsky.social

🚨 ALBUM OF THE YEAR 🚨 0️⃣8️⃣ >> Michael - Nite Salad Packed full of doom-laden brain-liquifying punk noise that accompanies burroughsesque cut-up, Edward Lear on meth style lyrical genius. Play very loud!!! #AlbumOfTheYear #AOTY #AlbumOfTheYear2024 #AOTY2024 @crackedankles.bsky.social

Here you go, the @thepunksite.bsky.social writers and photographers 2024 Top 40 Countdown, and this year we’ve done things a bit different.

Review | ZD Grafters - Three Little Birds by @ouchmonkey.bsky.social "Their 'parole jazz' party is a wild affair of drum rumble, filthy bass and squalling sax. Overpowered by skronk." echoesanddust.com/2024/12/zd-g... @crackedankles.bsky.social

Not one for promoting himself, 'Filthy Dirty' is another superb artist from the @crackedankles.bsky.social stable, whose debut album 'The Rise And Fall Of Blasphemouth' was released on the label also. You'll not find another like him. #shotfrombothsides #filthydirty #evilblizzard #crackedankles

Hauspoints play Manchester Peer Hat this weekend folks - see you there?

Listened to or seen Michael yet? You should because they are stunning. One of the best live bands I've seen and their gigs are insane. Check them out on @crackedankles.bsky.social one of a number of ace bands on their roster, I'll post more soon #theferret #Michael #crackedankles #shotfrombothsides

Now I have given you a 'Michael' heads up, get your lug holes around this beauty. This is one of my favourite tracks 'Bronze Again' from their recent 2nd album 'Nite Salad'. michaelwebsite.bandcamp.com/track/bronze... @crackedankles.bsky.social #Michael #crackedankles #shotfrombothsides
