This week was either pop punk or not pop punk? Isn’t that all the weeks? Have a listen and see if you can put the bands in a better box than I can. Go find something new to listen to on repeat like I am.
If this is your first time here, I’m the worst music reviewer.
Don’t forget to show these bands some love…follow the socials, buy the music/merch, etc.
P.S. Protect trans lives. Say gay everyday. We can’t and won’t be erased. Be a safe space for your local and not so local queers to land. We see you. We are here for you. We love you.
P.P.S. Safe abortion for all. No compromise. No Apology.
Here’s the recap of new (to us) bands we listened to last week (12/05 – 12/11).

12/05: Sparing
New music Monday? I listened to the new EP, No Room Left to Grow and the 2021 EP, Old Dreams. It’s early 00’s punk/screamo vibes, but more punk than screamo. Favorite Track: I Couldn’t Agree Less
12/06: Keep Your Secrets
I started with the EP from 2021, Let’s Face It, We’re Lost and then checked out the newer stuff. Catchy pop punk. What’s next? Favorite Track: trauma.
12/07: When the Sun Sets
I listened to the new 2020 full length, Transparent and the new singles. It’s pop punk. Favorite Track: Memory (one of the new ones)
12/08: Chainsaw Girl
I listened to the 2021 self-titled EP. Genre bending. I have no idea what section of a record store I’d look in to find this record, but I’d look! What’s next? Favorite Track: Late Stage
12/09: Out of Love
New(ish) music Friday! I listened to the new EP, Not Us, By Us which is an EP full of covers. Then I listened to the 2020 full length, So Far, So Good. Sounds like a super fun show. Grung(y) pop punk rock. Favorite Track: All Grown Up (from the full length); Astro Zombies (from the EP).
12/10: Social Cinema
New music Saturday? I checked out the new EP, Repeat. It’s a cool, calm and collected bop. New wave-ish, alternative dance (is that a genre)? Favorite Track: Loner (or On a Roll)
12/11: Friends Don’t Lie
New music Sunday? I listened to the new EP, Year Zero. It’s pop-punk. You’ll like it! Favorite Track: Moving Bridges
