Name/Band: Oscar and Martin (Oscar + Martin)   Define your genre in five words or less: "just a couple of guys appreciating some architecture."   Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?

Composed on mostly Casio... Read More

Punk rock has sadly been bereft of bands who have a greater understanding of the world around them. Populating the ever-growing throng of ever-worse contemporary punk bands there's a disturbing lack of self-awareness; even those who are associated with the smarter end of the punk spectrum like Anti-Flag or Rise Against tend to dwell far too much on the political or ethical aspects of life,...
