Monday Photo Blog: Stephanie Kiewiet!

30 08 2010

Though we got a lot of submissions this week, I dug into some older submissions before they slipped to the dark depths of my email Inbox. This week we have a handful of photos from Stephanie Kiewiet, from Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Monday Photo Blog: From the Archives, the 90s

2 08 2010

Aaah, the ’90s. Right around when this batch of photos was taken, MRR was about 10 years old, give or take a few years, depending on the photo, and hell, punk itself was just crawling into puberty. This week we have four photos from four very different bands around in the early 90s…

Bikini Kill (photo by Justin Demetrick)

Born Against (photo by Justine Demetrick)

The Mummies, circa 1990 (photographer unknown)

Next week we’ll have one more installment from the archives, (with two very special treats!) then it’s back to the NOW scene.

Monday Photo Blog: From the Vaults, Round 1

26 07 2010

A lot of cool photos have been sent in to MRR over the years. While the filing system for that treasure trove of photos hasn’t always been meticulously kept (and many were returned), the Gang at Maximum has turned up some real treats lurking in the archives. Today we have some old hardcore pics, and a special bonus photo!

Monday Photo Blog: the Birthday Suits!!!

19 07 2010

Minneapolis’ BIRTHDAY SUITS, as shot in Pittsburgh by GG Allix. The Birthday Suits are a two piece with Yuichiro “Matthew” Kazama on drums and the always awesome Hideo Takahashi playing guitar, who you might remember from Real Estate Fraud or Sweet JAP. Great guy. Great band(s).

Monday Photo Blog: Catchin’ Up

5 07 2010

It’s a long weekend here, 4th of July. I know I’m sometimes (often) delinquent in getting photos posted. And those of you who’ve submitted photos a while ago might be wondering why the hell I haven’t posted yours. Well, today I’m playing a little catch-up, getting a few older photos posted. Enjoy!

Monday Photo Blog: Lyon Calling

28 06 2010

Alex Simon from France (currently living it up in Melbourne) sent a batch of photos from his home country, all shot in Lyon by a photographer called Zen. While everybody knows Melbourne’s got great things going on, from what I’ve heard and read, Lyon’s a pretty rocking place itself.
