Dope Body
ARTIST / BAND: Dope Body
MP3: "The Shape of Grunge to Come"
ALBUM: NUPPING
FILE UNDER: Noise punk, Indie, Ska, Funk
LABEL: Hoss Records
INFO: Since forming in 2009, Baltimore native sons Dope Body have evolved on a truly logarithmic scale. Moving from stark, primitve punk-metal to genre-swallowing, unabashedly-90's-referencing, poly-rhythmic brutes in less than two years, the band has created a bizarre new standard for the mutant art-punk-beaster set.
Nupping, their debut full-length, manages to recall the best of the heavier, more obtuse and rhythmically inventive elements of punk rock from the past thirty years, as well as the kind of formative-influence-stuff alot of current artsy, heavy bands don't wanna acknowledge: Rage, Wu-Tang, nu-metal, Michael Jackson, The Beach Boys, and contemporary pop radio.

Las Kellies
ARTIST / BAND: Las Kellies
SONG (MP3): "Perro Rompebolas"
ALBUM: Kellies
FILE UNDER: punk, indie
LABEL: Fire Records
INFO:There’s only thing you can bank on when you’re confronted with Las Kellies: to expect the unexpected. From the raw rock & roll of their 2007 debut Shaking Dog – described by the great Everett True as “entirely ace” – to the Devo and ESG influenced sound of 2009’s follow-up Kalimera, this Argentinian three-piece have carved out a reputation for ripping up the form-book, delving into their box of magic tricks and serving up something entirely different. And so it is again on their third album Kellies: whether it’s embracing what they term as their “new sound” of groove-laden and irresistibly catchy post-punk or recruiting reggae legend Dennis Bovell to help in the studio, it’s the sound of a band who always keep things fresh. Kellies will be released in the United States on July 5th. read more from the source...

Adebisi Shank
ARTIST / BAND: Adebisi Shank
FILE UNDER: dance instrumental punk rock
LABEL: Sargent House
INFO: Imagine it's 1985 and you're making a movie that takes place in 2011. You picture myriad technological devices that simplify our lives -- every mundane activity can be accomplished with the push of a button -- freeing us to travel the globe, living a life of total awesomeness. The anthemic optimism of your era, you assume, will eventually enrich the entire world and create a global new form of music. This Is the Second Album From A Band Called Adebisi Shank is just the type of futuristic-utopian sound of a parallel 2011 universe breaking through the time-space continuum to guide us all to perfection.

ARTIST / BAND: Le Butcherettes
MP3: "Henry Don't Got Love" / "New York"
ALBUM: Sin Sin Sin
FILE UNDER: garage punk
LABEL: Rodriguez Lopez Productions
INFO: The garage-punk trio Le Butcherettes are like the brilliant offspring of surrealist Luis Bunuel and intrepid rock icon PJ Harvey. Led by 21-year-old vocalist/guitarist/pianist Teri Gender Bender (a recent transplant to L.A. from Guadalajara, Mexico) Le Butcherettes bring a brazen intensity and playful, hook-laden simplicity that hacks to pieces all forms of pretension and excess.

BUSSES
ARTIST / BAND: BUSSES
MP3: Stationary
ALBUM: Busses
FILE UNDER: Classic Rock / Punk / Progressive
LABEL: s/r
INFO: Philadelphia three-piece, Busses, announce the national release of their self-released, self-titled debut album, Tuesday, July 27th.
Drawing from the wells of classic rock, prog, jazz, and punk, their aim is to marry an eccentric approach to instrumentation with the comfort of a songwriter’s voice. The results are anthemic, as well as swooning. Kinetic, while suspended. Seven songs that rock with a confidence not seen often enough. While hints of Television, Animal Collective & Built To Spill may pop into your head, this band invites you in with a sound all enticingly their own.
