EKOLALIA!!!

Ekolalia is the newest side project featuring members of Generacion Suicida and La Voz. It is intended to be a proper follow up after the end of Rayos X. Straight up raw punk in the vein of Eskorbuto, Colera, RIP, etc... I would post up a download link, but Mediafire has been going crazy lately, deleting links and giving out violation notices like it's nobody's business, haha. However, here is a link to the new Ekolalia bandcamp, where you can here the music and download it for free (or pay if you want). If you want it for free, just put in a 0 where it says how much do you want to pay.

on another note, Generacion Suicida's next show will be with Subhumans on May 26. Here's the flyer:

We also have a facebook now (and a bandcamp too) Check out the new Generacion Suicida Lp out on the bandcamp. Here's the link:

Should be a good month...

PESADILLA DISTOPIKA!!

Here's something a little different from the norm. PESADILLA DISTOPIKA is a new band from the Inland Empire (San Bernardino, I do believe). This is fast ferocious hardcore D-Beat in the vein of GLAM or INVASION but without all the excessive reverb. Take a listen and give your ears a ferocious assault! 

You can download the demo here

If you dig these guys, make sure to go check them out at their first show at ROBS LOKO LOUNGE in Mentone on the 27 of this month. Here's a total list of all their upcoming shows:

MAY 27 @ Robs Loko Lounge W/ SUDOR (Spain) and KURRAKA (Texas)

JUNE 25 @ E. 7th St Warehouse W/ GAYKISS (Arizona)

JULY 4 @ Santa Ana W/ LA URSS

JULY 11 @ Unit B W/ STOIC VIOLENCE and NASA SPACE UNIVERSE

Check them out. If their live show is as good as the demo, we wont be disappointed.

FREE RADICALZ!!!

Today was a shitty day... Bored at work, run after the train, hit mad traffic, find out your dog has bleeding cysts... The pits, I say! But one thing made the day go by, and I will share it with you... Free Radicalz! These guys rule hard! I had the pleasure of seeing them when they came to play in East LA (I forget what was the name of the record store they played in, but it was pretty short lived. Black Wax, maybe?). Man, that front man was all over the place! The kids didn't know what to make of it, and everybody just stood still. It was totally lame and these guys deserved so much more! Sadly, Free Radz are no longer a band and this recording is their only output as a band (at least as far as I know). Lucky for us it totally rips! The bassist in this band now does frontwoman duties in Sad Boys (which you can check out here). You can download the Free Radz stuff right here.

DESDE EL CORAZON

Today is going to be a little different than usual. I'm feeling bogged down by a lot of recent events. I feel like I need time to reflect, to breathe, to release... I've been in this scene since I was 14 years old. I've seen a lot of bands come and go, spaces shut down and open up... I love it. This is my home. While I get angry or bitter over certain things, it doesn't change who I am. Everyone gets angry and bitter sometimes (I feel). It's just part of being human. I hope someday that whatever problems are happening in the scene, we can just forget them. What the hell is the difference in the end anyway? What's important now, is exactly that... What is happening NOW. 2013 has just started and we have plenty of time to make this the best year possible. There are new spots opening up, new bands coming up, and new releases by many punk bands from LA. It's time to let go and tear this new year up!

POPULATION IN SANTA ANA SATURDAY!!

We got another killer show this weekend, this time at Mass Media Records in Santa Ana. This spot is pretty cool, being that it's so small and intimate (in the sweatiest way). Catholic Spit dropped from this show (which is a damn shame), but in their place we got Secret Sect. Check em out if you've never heard em:

Show starts at 8 and it's 5 bucks. Come down and have a beer with us.

Oh! And one last thing! You can now download all the Generacion Suicida stuff from our Bandcamp now. Figured it be easier that way: http://generacionsuicida.bandcamp.com/
