If It's Too Loud...

Image courtesy Speed Week Australian garage punks Speed Week are back with their first new music since 2020. "Subdivision" is a biting and sarcastic song that you're going to love from the opening bass line. It's spoken word vocals are delivered in the style of a carnival barker, and it's all wrapped up in a package reminiscent of Blur meeting Yard Act. It couldn't say that "Subdivision" is a particularly hard or fast song, but it's certainly in your face. It's a fun track, if you're into this sort of thing. We're just discovering Speed Week ourselves, but if "Subdivision" is any indication, we'll be bringing you them as often as we can. You can listen to "Subdivision" below. Weak Speed is due out October 17 on Endless Recordings, and is available for pre-order via Bandcamp . For more on Speed Week, check out the band on Instagram . Weak Speed by Speed Week

They've been playing together for a few years, but it was during a trip to Japan that the duo decided to focus on guitar based rock inspired by bands like The Clash, The Replacements, and Fugazi. Their new single, "Psych," wears the influence of Fugazi on its sleeve. It's an aggressive song that festers more than it explodes. It's fuzzy, whining guitars that echo a bluesy sound at times that you might not expect. "Psych" is what happens when art rock decides to just rock out. Sure, it's artsy and noisy, but at its very core, this is a hard rock song in the most glorious sense. You can watch the video for "Psych" below. The song is available now as a single via Endless Recordings. For more on 100, check out the band's Facebook and Bandcamp .
