A political, anarchist, DIY, folk-punk band from Indiana consisting of Chris Clavin and Hannah Jones who have been in various bands such as Operation: Cliff Clavin and Disarm. These guys have played everywhere, even backyards and street corners, and have got rid of the usual restrictions of amps and equipment by choosing to play simple folk-punk. Other Ghost Mice releases i've posted: 'The Debt Of The Dead'.
Dip Dap are a DIY punk band straight out of Glasgow, Scotland. They started in June '08 and play sloppy pop punk with a mix of male and female vocals. This is a recording of the bands 5th gig. They also put out the zine 'I Can Smell It From Here' I posted last month. You can download more at www.last.fm/music/Dip+Dap or check them out at www.myspace.com/dipdappunk
This is my 3rd Connie Dungs post, a snotty pop punk band from Kentucky, and my second Operation: Cliff Clavin post, a DIY political pop punk band from Indiana. These bands are definitely worth checking out.
A two piece political, anarchist, DIY folk punk band from Indiana. Both members, Chris Clavin and Hannah Jones, have been in the bands Disarm, The Devil Is Electric and Operation: Cliff Clavin. They decided to play folk punk so they could tour easily, play almost anywhere and get rid of the usual restrictions of amps and equipment, often playing in backyards and on street corners.
Operation: Cliff Clavin were an influential DIY political pop punk band from Indiana. Their songs are sloppy and recorded badly, which is how it should be; stripped down, simple, fast and smart. More releases will be posted soon.
First issue of the Scottish zine 'I Can Smell It From Here'. Only 10 copies made of which only about 2 were actually given out. Features interviews from Glasgow bands such as 4 Past Midnight, Poverty Scum, Shove and also contains articles and reviews. Almost all of it is hand written, photocopied and put together. Completely DIY and definitely worth a read.
