“New Blood” is our weekly feature spotlighting new bands from around the world! See below for info on how to submit. Now, check out some killer new shit…

Voided Social Contract

Band name:
VOIDED SOCIAL CONTRACT

Date & location formed:
August 2014, San Francisco Bay Area.

Reason for forming:
We grew up together in Redwood City playing in various punk/grind/noise groups. Some of the bands that we’ve been associated with are Jacob Ham, Agents of Satan, Go Like This, Translators, and the Feldmans. We formed this group because we felt like there was a lack of bands in the area doing this style of music, which we love so much. Well…I suppose that’s only coincidental, the truth is when you play music it’s hard to stop playing music…so we’re playing music because we have to…like junkies. We are junkies.

What are your lyrics about?
Nearly everything we write about revolves around rational and/or irrational fear — e.g., The Government wants to take your minigun and kill you with vaccines “click here to find out why!”

How would you describe your sound?
If you like Redd Kross, the Crowd, Circle Jerks, the Nuns, Ramones, 999, Eater, Descendents, Black Flag, Posh Boy Records stuff, etc., then you’ll probably like VSC.

What’s in the future for this band?
We have a 7″ that we are putting out ourselves under the Ape Law Records banner (being pressed as I write this), we have a shows coming up at the Hemlock on April 30th with Hard Left (record release!) and Bad Daddies. (If you have yet to see these two groups, get to this show because it will melt yer fucking face off!)

barbed-wire-500x12

Band name:
LICKER

Date & location formed:
fall of 2014 , montrose, hou$ton, tx

Reason for forming:
boredom, wanted to start a band that sounded Like a mix of Gai, Mexican Norteno music and the intro to your favorite Saturday morning cartoons.

Licker

What are your lyrics about?
Whatever herber goes on in Herbers brain(transsexual porn, nazism, Stalinism, doin drugs in your attic, punks policing other punks, satanism, punk, punk, punk, and Japanese manga) usually a song is written in 5-10 minutes thanks to the magical powers of cocaine and cocaine accessories.

How would you describe your sound?
Chopped n skrewed Kyushu noiseGospel delivered by the sexiest bags of gelatinous stupidity in the H. Basically Like someone leaving a tv on a static-y channel while oasis and the partisans are being played on at the same time on your beat up record player and tape player while beating off to a city being destroyed by a pisses off lizard with baby hands.

What’s in the future for this band?
Doing a split with the greatest noise pop band in history(aborticidio) as well as touring and other hood ass shit.

barbed-wire-500x12 The Losing Kind_logo

Band name:
THE LOSING KIND

Date & location formed:
September 2013, Vacaville, CA.

Reason for forming:
To offer old school punk rock ‘n’ roll to the masses.

What are your lyrics about?
A variety of subjects from politics and social issues to just having fun and rock and rollin’.

The Losing Kind

How would you describe your sound?
The Losing Kind is bare bones rock ‘n’ roll with razor blade guitar, sonic boom drums, and freight train Bass. Yes, all that from a three-piece band.

What’s in the future for this band?
The future for The Losing Kind holds nothing but promise. As hard as they work in the studio, they work even harder on stage. The Losing Kind is hard at work completing their soon to be released recording “I Can’t Exist in a World Like This.” They are also booking a West Coast tour and looking for festivals to join.

barbed-wire-500x12

Band name:
BEROSSZULÁS

Date & location formed:
Autumn of 2014. Budapest, Hungary.

BEROSSZULAS

Reason for forming:
All of us missed a band from the scene that communicates that level of frustration when you don’t even want to say words but yell as loud as you can. We wanted to make the essential soundtrack of feeling shitty in Hungary with as simple and stressed and negative punk music as possible. And we are really good friends who were hanging out in the practice room all the time anyway.

What are your lyrics about?
Being young in Budapest, drug abusing, general disgust towards people and our country’s rulers and the cops and people on night buses and almost everything else.

How would you describe your sound?
Dizziness, gagging, headache, bitter spit, shaking limbs, that’s what the word BEROSSZULÁS means. We’re trying to sound as simple as knocking on a table.

What’s in the future for this band?
More records, more hangovers, more puking.
