Casual Nausea - Fuck The Sea



  Casual Nausea (https://www.facebook.com/casualnausea/) are the "glorious frantic mess" from Ipswich who featured on here last year with a track from their impressively raucous Demons album (https://www.facebook.com/casualnausea/). You may have also caught vocalist Zoë Barrow recently being unmasked as one of the members of hot new punk "supergroup" Knife Club (https://tnsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/we-are-knife-club), a band that also feature a couple of members of the much missed Revenge Of The Psychotronic Man. Armed with that knowledge it's no great surprise to learn that a new tribute ep to ROTPM would feature a contribution from Casual Nausea.

  The ep is on Hastings label Toxic Wotsit Records and it also features covers by The Domestics, Matilda's Scoundrels, Bätwolf and Stöj Sank. It's available on 7" vinyl (307 copies) as a co release with Kibou Records & Autonomonster Records and you can get it here :   https://www.toxicwotsit.co.uk/product/tribute-to-rotpm-7 and

  Digitally it's available here : https://toxicwotsit.bandcamp.com/album/tribute-to-revenge-of-the-psychotronic-man

  The bands involved all put their own unique spin on their versions of some very good tracks, Casual Nausea barrel their way through a song that featured on 2012's Shattered Dreams Parkway album (https://tnsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/shattered-dreams-parkway) matching the originals intensity.

Casual Nausea - Demons



  Casual Nausea are a "glorious frantic mess" from Ipswich who line up with Simon (vocals), Ed (guitar/vocals), Zoe (vocals) Shawn (drums) and Matt (bass). They formed in 2012 and a year later released debut album Change Your Reality
(free download : https://casual-nausea.bandcamp.com/album/change-your-reality). There's also a split album with Chewed Up.

  In ways similar to the band who featured yesterday (The Muslims), they make political music that's fast, heavy and despite conveying a serious message, great fun. They've just released new album Demons and it's a blast. 19 tracks of raucous punk, ska, folk and hardcore, you can't help but be impressed. It's out on TNS Records (TNS describe it as being akin to The Restarts meets Gogol Bordello) and you can find it on vinyl https://www.tnsrecords.co.uk/shop/tns-releases/pre-order/casual-nausea-demons/ and digitally https://tnsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/demons-2

  Another early album of the year contender, there's plenty of songs I could have chosen to highlight on here. On this week's Just Some Punk Songs show I played Zombie (an excellent reworking of a track from the debut album) so today I'm going with the title track. This is Demons...
