It’s always a good day when you check your inbox and find new music from Brian Moss. Today, I’m happy to introduce Sub Dio, a band that consists of a lot of familiar faces from the Bay Area punk scene. Featuring former members of Great Apes, The Ghost, and Reunions, Sub Dio play a brand of punk that is rooted in urgency and aggression. Their self-titled debut will release on July 19th but you can get a preview of what’s to come by listening to “Skeeters” today. The song is a direct response to predatory, parasitic, and incessant behavior many men feel entitled to exhibit towards women.

#pride: micki maverick honors GF and women everywhere with “FINE,” premiered via Nylon
Dylan Neil, aka micki maverick, shares “Let me tell you, my girl is truly fine as wine. Needless to say this track was written for her. I’ve been with my girlfriend since we were both 17, and to say the least she has seen me through some of my darkest moments. These past 4 years with her have been the best and most authentic of my life. When I met her I was a chameleon, I’d change myself slightly for whatever social situation I found myself in. I never wanted people to see the real me out of fear that I would be rejected, but there is something about her that made me feel like I didn’t need to cover up and hide. She spoke up for me when others stayed silent, and she gave me all the love I needed when no one else would.
