The Dissidents - No Air

  


  Hey there fellow punk fans, you've probably noticed it's been a decent week for new releases. Plenty of big hitters (and Just Some Punk Songs' favourites) putting out new material. No doubt you've already come across new songs by Bob Vylan, Wonk Unit, Chubby And The Gang, Raging Nathans, Benefits, Wild Billy Childish etc so instead of featuring one of those on here, I think I'll just play something on this week's show (Sunday, 8pm UK time :  https://www.facebook.com/events/210359827728398/). 

  Instead, I'll point you in the direction of a rough and ready digital demo today ("tape coming soon"). It's by a new 4 piece from Philadelphia called The Dissidents who feature a line up comprising of members of bands such as The Brood, Mischief Brew, Witch Hunt, The Pist, Aus-Rotten, & Bong Daemon; Janine St Clair (bass & vocals), Rachel Courtney (vocals), Bill Chamberlain (guitar) and Shawn St Clair (drums). 

  The Demo boasts 5 tracks of pissed off punk which rage against the boys in blue ("all cops are culpable"), the treatment of immigrants ("crime against humanity"), unlawful killing by those in authority ("just another racist murder") etc. Hopefully just an introduction to a band we'll hear more from, you can find it here :  https://thedissidents.bandcamp.com/album/demo

  This is the lead track, it's titled No Air...
