DIY is the backbone of the punk scene. The paints, fabric, and plastic used for the stencil are all materials that otherwise would have been thrown away, instead they are being repurposed!
Creeping Embers have plans for a variety of patch designs, not just these, so keep an eye out and come to our shows if you want to get some!
2 awesome shows down and 3 more still to go on The Order Of The Fly’s 25 Years Of Decay Tour!

Hi all,
Still buzzing, so I want to scribble what I thought about the day on Saturday. First, the bands:
Uncivilised: Great hooks, good banter, funny lyrics. A lovely opener. I've never heard a punk band sing about growing vegetables before!
Well 'Ard: I mean what I am about to say as compliment, not criticism, but there is so much potential here. For a band that was without their usual drummer and picked up instruments two years ago, they were good. Ease up on the vocals a bit, and get that bit tighter and they'll go far. Really fun cover of 'Money'.
Why Pinto: I'm a sucker for fast riffs, a hardcore kick and a skate-punk sound, so I'm a big fan. Oozing with confidence, a good watch, and I respected the drummer wearing an Aphex Twin shirt.
eatboys: Not my usual style of music, but tight and enjoyable. My sister really enjoyed this band, but I can't recall much more than what I have said!
Buds: The band I was most excited to see and the highlight of the day for me. I saw them and liked them a year or so ago in Southampton, and they looked much more comfortable this time out. Confident, singalong anthems and great sound had the room bouncing. Excellent.
Sunliner: My favourite new discovery of the year. Sadly missed the start because I had to cool down after buds. Loved the big sound and what I could hear of the lyrics. When I rushed off to get an album, I saw 'for fans of Gaslight Anthem, The Menzingers, Iron Chic and Hot Water Music' on a hype sticker, and that explains why I've played it about 6 times already.
Be N!ce/Pizzatramp: Missed Be Nice because I was too busy chewing the ears off Sunliner's members, and I took the time to chill and have a beer because I'm not really into Pizzatramp.
Wonk Unit: THE SHOW MUST GO ON! The singer lost his voice after two songs, and the Why Pinto singer stood in, then someone else from the crowd. It was surreal, and lovely to watch. The drummer was forced to do keepy-ups, which was amusing, and the singer dedicating "Strength" to his daughter, who sat at the back not paying attention reminded me of my own child. Heartwarming stuff.
The Venue: Excellent. Good room, good sound, nice bar/chillout area.
The Vibes: Excellent all day. What a lovely crowd. Family friendly, chill and chatty, you were great.
BIG THANK YOU to all involved, we'll be back next year, and I hope to see some of you at Riskee on Friday!
Formed as part of Girls Rock Glasgow and been active in the Glasgow scene for the past year and a bit. Today they released their first EP. She's only 15, I wasn't doing anything nearly as productive at that age so we're very proud.
Please go and check it out if you like!
And if you're in Glasgow come down to Bloc+ on Sunday at 2pm for the live EP release show/party with support from Hardcore Punk Bands Knife Off & Dregks!
