Maximum Rock ‘n’ roll # 354 november 2012

Oh yes, another issue of MRR is out and ready to take the world by storm! Check out the November issue — MRR #354 — for the latest and greatest in punk and hardcore! Bay Area hardcore ragers REPLICA tell us their story so far and discuss what it’s like today for women in hardcore, Swedish hardcore punks the VICTIMS share part of their extensive European Tour Diary with us, Kevin from Girth Records discusses punks in academia and his label based out of Geneva, NY, and MÁXIMO VOLUMEN look back at punk a few decades ago, in light of their 1992 demo reissue. And there’s more…. We also have Massachusetts bands ANCIENT FILTH, who play back-to-basics hardcore discussing their recent tour and EP, and grind menaces BEARTRAP on how their multifaceted project works. We also have Canadian punks with an edgy twist OHMWAR, Bay Area post-punk enthusiasts SYNTHETIC ID; Finnish garage lady-rockers the SPLITS, and Brazil’s old-school USHC skaters O INIMIGO. Plus, of course, the most extensive reviews in punk and all the columnists you love to hate!
