THE 36 BEST EPs OF 2022



Here is part two of our end of the year lists. We present you the 36 best EPs of 2022!!! (That we know of, obviously.) If you know what we do, you know why this list is special, and why you should really support and follow these artists. Because they are amazing musicians and deserve recognition, but also because in this hetero-cis-male dominated scene, diversity matters. 

Enjoy!

ENTREVUE AVEC SPIRULINE

Photo: @harshivvvv Spiruline est un groupe riot hardcore de Paris qui vient de sortir son tout premier EP, "Up To Task", alors notre collaboratrice Astrid a profité de l'occasion pour en savoir plus sur le groupe, et surtout ça ressemble à quoi être un groupe qui s'affiche haut et fort comme féministe, en France en 2024. Propos recueillis par Astrid (@brigid.astrid) ---- -- - Quelles sont les principales influences musicales et idéologiques de votre groupe ? D'un point de vue musical, nos influences sont assez variées. On a clairement toustes un passif avec les sous genre du métal qui finissent par -core. On a toustes grandi en écoutant ce type de musique. Nous nous sommes toustes rencontré.e.s au sein des milieux militants de gauche et de la scène contre-culturelle parisienne punk et hardcore. Alors en ce qui concerne Spiruline, on a voulu s'inscrire dans ce milieu là. On aime le hardcore car c'est une scène qui s'est construit en portant des message...

2020: HEAR THEM ROAR

Band: Dream Nails / Photographer: Jeroen Jacobs The year 2020 was probably off to a good start for many of us. The prospect of new music, new shows, new ways to kick doors down and share art that means a lot to us, was promising once again. Then, around mid march, it all came to a stop. The whole industry was placed on hold while new ways of doing things were put in place to take care of everyone around us. It didn't stop us from being heard though. It didn't take long for independant medias and artists to get the ball rolling again. After all, most of us have been doing it ourselves for so long. We were up for the challenge.  Eventually new music was recorded, virtual events became a thing, and through online communities, voices have been heard. We are proud to say that it ended up being a good year for women and marginalized artists. We have discovered so many great bands, have seen so many amazing events being organized, and most of all, we've seen all of you getting tog...

Interview w/ Jennifer "JJ" Leigh ( THE DEVOTCHKAS)

In 1996, three girls from New-York got together to form The Devotchkas . A band that would go on to become one of the most talked about all-girl oï punk of the scene at the time. A time that was long before smartphones and social media, when bands only had web pages on Geocities and Angelfire, which is where we first heard about them. Because in 2001, after Jennifer Leigh, (better known has JJ ) took vocal duties, the band released an iconic album, that was not only our introduction to them, but to how much ass a women can kick when they play badass music. The next year they went on hiatus, and we never heard about them. The whole industry evolved, but for us they remained legendary in their own way.  Fast foward 20 years later, the same line-up that released that iconic album, decided it was time to get back in action. This weekend, the gang is set to play at the C.Y. Fest in Los Angeles, not once, but twice, and even though we can't attend, we couldn't be more exited at the i...
