The queer vegan shitpunks, Joe & The Shitboys, formed with the intention of calling out shitty behaviour in the conservative Faroe Islands, where the rock scene is filled with boneless homophobes and meat-eating misogynists – and continue to take their aim at general vibe killers everywhere.
The live shows are full of energy, with a barrage of songs often under a minute long, like “Save The Planet You Dumb Shit”, “Life Is Great You Suck” and “If You Believe in Eating Meat Start With Your Dog”, being broken up by the flamboyant frontman roasting the audience relentlessly.
The band (Joe, Ziggy Shit, Johnny Shit and Ollie Shit) have played every type of venue there is; roof tops, public toilets, opening ceremonies for North Atlantic sub sea tunnels, museums and skateparks, and have also appeared on their fair share of major festival line ups around Europe and North America.
To date the band have released three albums, ‘The Reson For Hardcore Vibes’, ‘The Reson For Hardcore Vibes Again’, and ‘The Reson For Hardcore Vibes III’ – all receiving critical acclaim despite their modest and unconventional (aka punk) 10 minute total run time.
Among their numerous and vocal champions, Iggy Pop has recently hailed Joe & The Shitboys as the most exciting band in the world right now – and he’s not just talking. After using the band’s new single ‘MR. NOBODY’ as his walk-out music for a number of shows, he’s now invited them to join his 2025 UK tour, including a massive show at London’s iconic Alexandra Palace. As a long-standing advocate for the band, Iggy has played their output extensively on his BBC Radio 6 Music show, but his support goes even further. In his NME cover feature, he revealed that he played their music to Blink-182’s Travis Barker before he laid down the drums for album track ‘Neo Punk’ and even shared his admiration for the band with none other than Rick Rubin on the Broken Record podcast.
For those seeking further justification for hardcore vibes, Joe & The Shitboys promise more new music, more raucous live shows and more polite advice on how to live your life in 2025. https://joeandtheshitboys.bandcamp.com/
+ Creeping Embers: Formed in May 2024, Creeping Embers are an all queer, trans and disabled fronted, genre hopping punk band from Brighton uk. Loud, Chaotic, and slightly unhinged, Creeping Embers combine Rumbling bass tones, erratic drum beats and biting vocals to create an experience you won’t forget! With grimly theatrical visuals and atmospheric stage performances, Creeping Embers twist the standard idea of a live music performance to create something that is sure to remain etched in your memory.
The band’s lyrics focus on a wide variety of topics such as social injustice, lgbtq+ rights, living with disabilities, getting a little bit too drunk and accidentally ending up on stage and more.
Comparable to bands such as Cheap Perfume, Destroy Boys, The Oozes, Amyl and the Sniffers,, Petrol Girls, The Cure and The Buzzcocks, Creeping Embers take influence from a variety of genres including punk, post punk, queercore, grunge, funk, folk, alternative rock and gothic rock, then smush it all together to create their own sound, ideal for both fans of these bands and new comers to the genres!
+ Daffodildos: Sober queer punk fury with buzzsaw riffs, riot grrrl bite and anarcho-punk heart. Loud, political and uncompromising – pure battle-cry punk for queer liberation, animal rights and tearing up the rulebook.
