Whether you want some rap, punk, whether you want your summer music low key or theatrical, we hope you find something to your liking below.

Father Fury by Father Fury

This anarchist, priest-fronted punk band just released their first full length album and it is just the stuff to play under the scorching sun with some refreshments at hand and friends around.

Mi Volto e Mi Rivolto by Léon les Cailloux

“Themes of summer, protest, friendship and sisterhood string the album together. Moving from women workers’ demonstrations in the north of Italy a hundred years ago, to a group of friends taking shelter from the summer rain in Aveyron, to intersectional demonstrations in the streets of France in December 2019, and ending with Woody Guthrie’s Hobo’s Lullaby, Léon reworks songs from far away and long ago, and writes new ones too, in order to address our current times, mixing anger with solidarity, gratefulness, tenderness and courage.” – taken from the album’s Bandcamp page.

Sweet Talk by Wes Watkins

Wes Watkins makes subtle music with tons of important messages. He does not “claim to have all the answers” but he marches on presenting his thoughts, experiences and ideas for how we can all get along better. The song ‘Mason’ is a recommended listen that features dramatic melodies, beautiful lyrics and, like some of the other songs, audio clips of James Baldwin speaking.

Big Black: Stand At Attica by Stand At Attica

“Big Black: Stand At Attica is the sound of uprising and revolution! It is the story of an extraordinary man facing off against inhumane conditions and a callous Governor. It is a call for prison reform that is as relevant today as it was half a century ago.” – taken from the album’s Bandcamp album.

Product of the Outrage by Build and Destroy

Build and Destroy claim that their newly released rap album is a mandatory listen for oppressed people of the world. We don’t disagree.
