Watch Bad Mary's new live video!

Today we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the new live video by New York-based glam punks Bad Mary! The video is for their song “Marz Attaqx” and was filmed at their show at Industry in Huntington, New York on February 21, 2025. The song originally appeared on their 2016 album We Could Have Saved The World and the live version is off their upcoming live album Live On Long Island. Speaking to Punknews about the song and video, bassist and vocalist Mike Staub said,

“We've never had the opportunity to do a live album before, so when the release party for our split EP with Mega Infinity, The Mega Bad Disaster Party, was set to take place at Industry in Huntington, we were beyond excited. It's an incredible venue in a fantastic location, with amazing sound and an incredible audience.

Honestly, we didn’t overthink it. I just threw out the idea—‘Hey, do we want to maybe do a live record?’—and the whole band was immediately on board. Everything we do is built around our live show. We only write and record songs that we want to perform live, and we've always felt that our live performance is the true Bad Mary experience. We love interacting with the crowd, feeding off their energy, and Live on Long Island really captures that. That night, we felt on fire—everyone was playing at the top of their game.

A live album has always been something we’ve talked about because performing live is the heartbeat of what we do. We’re really happy with how it turned out. We want people who haven’t seen us live to get that experience too—and yeah, we’re pretty pumped!

For prep, we put together a setlist of our favorite songs and the ones our audience loves—a mix of old and new, with plenty of “Hey!”s We basically aimed for a ‘greatest hits’ live set.

We filmed the entire concert, so it looks like we might have 16 live videos coming your way!”

The live version of “Marz Attaqx” will be out everywhere on April 15 and you can pre-save it right here. Live On Long Island will be out on July 15. Check out the video and tracklist below!

Check out the new track by Violets!

Today, we are excited tro debut the new tune by Violets!

Violets is the new band that features Bill Stephens of Naked Raygun (guitar), Simon Lamb of The Methadones and the Kepi Ghoulie band (guitar), Aly Jados of Blood People (guitar/vocals), Fritz Doreza of Naked Raygun (bass/vocals), and Michael Soucy of Methadones and The Bomb (drums). They will release their self-titled debut EP on May 2.

"Eras" finds the bandmembers pushing their pedigree to new eras. The track has a menacing buzz, reminiscent of both the '90s art rock boom and the corresponding nihilism of Amphetamine Reptile style crunch. Meanwhile, the song itself asks what exactly is real? (It's hard to imagine a better theme considering the current "political" landscape…

Speaking to Punknews, Jados stated: "Everything in life is in cycles…eras. This song smashes what you think you know like a freight train. There’s a darker otherworldly vibe lyrically asking to take a closer look at what is real.”

The band plays a hometown Chicago show with Riverboat Gamblers on April 27. You can pick up the new album here and check out the new tune below.
