Hit me up with some links to new Irish punk bands doing the rounds. I'm more into the likes of Oi!, anarcho and post punk than noisy hardcore, but let me know who is worth checking out. I haven't kept an eye on the local scene in a few years and imagine there must be a few good bands on the go.
I see some Sligo punk distro on the Promotions thread, well you probably saw it

Post punk from ex Only Fumes/Shithatt lads.
Speaking of Only Fumes..., this is from a couple of years back, no idea if they're still at it:

This is really fucking cool.
Punk more perhaps in ethics and how we operate than music but if you like Husker Du/Quicksand/the two Jaws (breaker and box), here's what I'm at nowadays. 4 songs 12" out on Jan 5th

We played with Yop earlier in the year funnily enough. Great band.
If Oi is your thing, Sympos from Waterford. They sound more classic 70s punk to me than anything but sure I don't understand/like Oi
Misery Hill sounds great man. Like something you might even hear on the radio like Kerbdog or a noisier Foo Fighters. Catchy gear.
Wtf is "Oi" lads? Heard the description for years but no idea other than the awful picture in my head of lads spitting on me. Am I wrong?

No that's not punk :laugh:.
When it kicked in I'd swear a lad played me the demo of that a while back, might be imagining things but it was very familiar.

Oi is skinhead punk. Streetpunk. Pretty much simple and direct catchy sing along stuff.

"the lad" was probably your brother, he had a rough mix for a while.

Well fair play if that's the craic because I'd likely have heard half a song off a phone once and it was obviously catchy enough for me to remember it. Well done. Does sound like a successor to Kerbdog in places too, which is no bad thing

Absolutely not Kerbdog fans. At all. But it was meant as a compliment so thanks I guess :laugh: . Thankfully our tuneful phase ended with this recording and we'll never have to suffer that horrible comparison again.
I know And said he didn't want "noisy hardcore" but the post underneath his one was 2/3 noisy hardcore so fuck it:
Just realised earlier noone menbtioned SNAKE - Karen who was in Vircolac/DeNov/Wizards of Firetop Mountain sings for them.

Andy from Zom is now in Special Branch
https://specialbranchpunk.bandcamp.com/album/lethal-force
Both of these are fairly catchy though rather than all out noisy hardcore. Keep an eye out for Hunger Pains as well who are recording with Shauny, sorta classic 80s us hc a la Circle Jerks, Government Issue, etc bit of Totalitar thrown in

It was me yeah and it was off a phone at one point. Actually only realised today that that was the only version of it I had and picked up a tape :laugh: I'd listened to the demo version heaps but lost it when I changed phones.

Pity you're so averse to the Kerbdog comparison because I was going to suggest you change your name to Kerbdoggy.
You- Hi, we are Kerbdoggy.
Crowd- You are a bit, yeah.

Ripping proper hardcore punk. None of This sportswear gymbro DHC mosh metal dogshit
Hi
Saw this post and thought folks might be interested in some brand new Irish punk. I'd be interested in opinions.
Website is BTFrankie.com
Or you can get our first ep on Spotify and YouTube and most other platforms.
It's a shoestring production so pretty rough and dirty but we thought it prob didn't need shiny modern production values.
Cheers from Belfast!

Yeah the DHC scene are really leaning into that the last few years.
I don't mind the mosh metal but they're trying a bit too much to be yanks at times😂
Heard good things about hunger pains from the fest at Bohs this weekend.

I know next to nothing about Irish punk but I found this the other day and I think some of ye might like it.
Cheers Adrian.
Fell head first into that rabbit hole.
:laugh:
Gonna show that to the kids.
I reckon they'll lap it up.
