BATHOUSE! Noise Rock from Malmö, helping bats helping people

Today, I’m sharing with you an interview with Desoluna, the Gothic/Doom Metal band from Malmö!! It was so nice to meet them and get to know them better at their rehearsal space near NGBG here at Malmö. At the end of the interview you can listen to their hit, “Night”. You can check them up in the following links: Their own website: https://www.desoluna.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@desoluna766/videos Bandcamp: https://desoluna.bandcamp.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Desoluna By the way they just made new t-shirts, check them out and get yours ASAP! In other news, we’re organizing a benefit punk gig here in Malmö. We want to raise funds for the incredible people in Valencia who’ve been working tirelessly to support each other after the recent floods. We believe that punk is solidarity, they cannot wait for the government to help them, so they are from day one helping each other and we want to do something for them as well, from here. The gig is happening on Saturday, December 7th, at Family Pub in Värnhem, Malmö. LINGCHI, FEARADOX and TERROR 83 will be playing! So mark your calendars! Come and Bring your friends and please share the news! Vi ses!

I recently caught up with Nevin from @genjingrecords, and together we created a special episode about the Chinese punk and hardcore scene. Nevin is a U.S. musician and music activist who lived in Beijing for 20 years, and he’s now based in Hong Kong. I first met him around 10 years ago while I was traveling through northern China, and then I had the experience to see and listen to some of the bands that he talks about during the episode.  Nevin has deep knowledge of the Chinese music scene, having worked with labels like Genjing Records (which he founded) and Maybe Mars, as well as playing in bands like Fan Zui Xiang Fa and Struggle Session, so he is the perfect person to guide us through this underground scene.  Thanks again, Nevin, for the talk and for all the music!!! Bands and songs that we play on this episode: Fanzui Xiangfa: DIY Demerit: Fight Your Apathy Dummy Toys: Fight Against Domestic Violence Xiaowang: Steal Hang on the Box: Now I Wanna Say Apologies to You Si Dou Le: Motor Youth Shit Dog: Burning Youth Struggle Session: I Can’t Hear Without My Glasses

I had the pleasure to interview this noise-rocking power-trio in their rehearse space in Malmö. During our conversation, we talked a little bit about everything; from The Hospitals and their song "I say Go", to bat researcher Merlin Tuttle. While I was editing the podcast I saw this review off their first album: "I have a soft spot for bands who sound like they hate their instruments". I don´t necessarily agree with them hating their gear, but I definitely have a soft spot for Bathouse and their energetic noise and I am looking forward to see them play :-D Check out their videos on youtube: Bathouse - Ideal Specimen music video Bathouse - Enjoy music video Follow them at FB: https://www.facebook.com/bathousetheband/
