Take Cover Records

RT @WastingTimeTO: "Who needs a radio???" You can stream all of our music below on Spotify! open.spotify.com/artist/3hqCMUx… #yeah #spotify #punkr…

1 of 2 I purchased my first @Apple #ipod 15 years ago and having most of my music on the go was revolutionary. Now it feels almost obsolete with even #MP3 shelved by streaming platforms. The accessibility to music now on @Spotify etc

4 of 4 Стиль (Google translate tells me means ‘style’) showcases hardcore sensibilities, while other releases exude many other influences (black metal, rap to stoner rock) forming a solid catalogue for you to stomp, spin kick and windmill your way through. #punk #hardcorepunk

3 of 4 This Russian ‘Crossover’ crew, sporting a name that wouldn’t look out of place on a Napalm Death bill, supply hardcore, beatdowns, shouty vocals, riffs and solos of all flavours across their five releases available on @bandcamp.

Siberian Meat Grinder – Стиль (Style) siberianmeatgrinder.bandcamp.com 1 of 4 As a child I would walk down to the local shop, hand the lady 20p for a mix of sweets and leave with a bag of the unknown. I didn’t care, I just liked sweets. Fast forward numerous decades,

#afatwreck Punk u mentary (@PrimeVideo ) If you're a fan of @fat_wreck bands, then this is a no brainer. Interviews with all the bands that made this label a stalwart force in DIY punk rock and a insight into how a label should be run. #punk #punkrock

@everytimeidie Gutter, Big Dirty, New Junk..

Curbside (@curbsidepunk) - Decades 1 of 3 Sirens are customarily a harbinger of impending doom, in the case of Curbside, this couldn’t be further from the truth. There is nothing gloomy about this Canadian 4 piece, instead they treat you to frenetic, melodic punk rock

2 of 2 seems light years from my youth. However, If it wasn't for @Bandcamp I wouldn't know about @knucklepuck, so as much as I want to resist, I feel I must embrace the new way.

@armadahardcore - Songs of the Exiled I, It’s hardcore Jim, but not as we know it. Dominican hardcore via ‘The Windy City’ USA, clearly with a layover in NYC. Chunky riffs, marinated with latin vibes, delivering the stomp of ‘traditional’ hardcore (continued below)

@SoxMerry @dotmoneendot @LeesPalaceTO I would have loved to see them live, however i'm happy I found the music. An excellent legacy.

One of my favourite bands, from the days of opening for AOF and Rise Against at Myron’s, to the show they played at the APM Centre three weeks before their breakup, to the two opening sets I saw during @dotmoneendot’s Red Tree anniversary shows at @LeesPalaceTO in Toronto.

4 of 4 If The Fullblast is indeed consigned to the grave, I for one will frequent the grave, tip a beer and eagerly await the zombie apocalypse so they may rise again. open.spotify.com/artist/0CgNBUj… #punk #punkrock

3 of 4 influences to create something ear-catching to not only fans of fast punk, but the more open minded and experimental noise connoisseur.

The Fullblast (@TheFullblastRIP ) – Attack Sustain Decay E.P 1 of 4 What’s in a name? A band’s moniker is not always indicative of their sound, in the case of this (apparently now defunct) Toronto quartet however, it is a clear directive.

"Holiday in Cambodia" is the second single by the American punk rock band Dead Kennedys, released 40 years ago with "Police Truck" as the B-side. #punk #punks #punkrock #staypunk #hardcorepunk #deadkennedys #holidayincambodia #history #punkhistory #historyofpunk #punkrockhistory

#Beastieboys are one of my all-time favourite bands, if you are a fan of #hardcorepunk then their earlier releases and the 11 minute, 8 track 'Aglio e Olio' ep should be in your earholes ASAP. #RIPMCA #punk #punkrock twitter.com/PunkRockStory/…

This offering exudes melody in abundance and one thing is guaranteed, your neck muscles will never be the same. Please sir, may I have some more? curbsidepunk.bandcamp.com/album/decades

that immediately triggers visions of Swedish pioneers of the craft Millencolin. Drums fire at you like a machine gun, whilst guitars chug, thrash, stop, start and noodle your brain into mush, before the vocals pick you up, put an arm around you and nurse you back to health.
