White Frogs Released Their Acclaimed Radio Session On CD Via Engineer Records
White Frogs, the influential Brazilian melodic hardcore band, is proud to announce the long-awaited physical release of their acclaimed Radio Session — for the first time ever on CD — through UK based independent label Engineer Records. Previously available only on streaming, the Radio Session captures White Frogs at their raw, honest, and electrifying best — a live-in-studio recording that distils the energy of the band’s celebrated live shows into a powerful, unfiltered format. This milestone release for the Santos, São Paulo, Brazil based band is available now, and the Radio Session CD marks a new chapter for White Frogs and a significant step-up in their international legacy, bringing their sound directly to new ears across Europe. “This session was one of our purest recordings,” says founding member João Veloso Jr. “It’s direct, urgent, and heartfelt — we’re thrilled it’s finally being made available as a physical release, especially through such a respected DIY label like Engineer Records.”

Photo by Roos de HuuAntillectual is releasing their first-ever Dutch EP, Antillectueel, today, featuring around 9 tracks in their direct native language.

The songs tackle local symptoms of global issues, including the shift to the right, populist figures, and tax evasion, using the in-your-face Dutch language as the perfect medium. Side A features new tracks, while Side B is a mixed bag of pseudo-covers and re-interpretations.

Dutch Punk Trio Antillectual Unleash Politically Charged Single “Voorrang Voor Rechts”
Photo by Roos de HuuDutch melodic punks Antillectual drop their first-ever song in Dutch, “Voorrang Voor Rechts,” tackling the alarming global shift toward right-wing politics. Arriving just days before the Dutch elections, the track’s furious pace and biting commentary reflect the nation’s growing unrest. With Geert Wilders’ PVV leading the polls, the accompanying video captures real-life chaos between nationalist riots and massive pro-Palestine protests. “Voorrang Voor Rechts” will appear on Antillectual’s new EP — a fully Dutch project due November 11 via vinyl and digital formats. Expect a fierce blend of activism and urgency that defines modern European punk.

Dutch Melodic Punk Rock Trio Antillectual Breaks Language Barrier With New EP “Antillectueel”
Photo by Roos de HuuDutch punk trio Antillectual are reclaiming their mother tongue on their upcoming EP Antillectueel, out November 11 on vinyl and digital formats. After more than 20 years of writing and performing exclusively in English, the band makes a radical and timely shift, responding to the politics of exclusion and the global swing to the right. By embracing Dutch, Antillectual channel their anger and urgency directly into the local discourse, transforming personal frustration into political song.
Known for their conceptual EPs, acoustic reinterpretations, covers, and viral Netherpunk jingles, the band continue their tradition with Antillectueel, mixing repurposed favorites with brand-new originals. Ahead of the release, they will drop the single Voorrang Voor Rechts on October 18, strategically aligned with the Dutch elections. With this record, Antillectual don’t just sing against injustice, they sing in a language meant to spark immediate resonance at home, while staying true to punk’s internationalist spirit.
