The new AZPunk 2.0 is an ongoing in-the-works project. That means there might be
some bugs here and there. If you're looking for the best in AZPunk experience, ditch the
Internet Explorer and get your www on with a real browser!




Many moons (and roughly 3500 gallons of alcohol ago), I had this idea for AZPunk. It was to make a list of all of the punk-friendly bars I could find throughout the state, and start a re-occurring segment called the "AZPunk Pub Crawl", where we would travel to one of these listed bars with a local band, kick back with a trough of drinks, and just bullshit about local music and whatever else a trough of drinks happens brings about. Each segment would feature a different bar, and a different local band. Kind of like an upgrade to the "Featured Bands" of AZPunk lore. Well, that idea never really got much further than the inside of my skull, but it did get me off my ass to start making a list of the right bars and pubs you should be supporting all throughout Arizona. With a lot of help from the boardies over at The Shizz, and some meticulous HTML coding, I've busted out a pretty comprehensive list of some great places for you and your friends can go to get away from everything, just have some drinks, and in some cases, a bite to eat. By no means is this list complete, so if you think I've missed something, gimme a holler and I'll add it to the list. As for the "Pub Crawl" segment, we haven't completely given up on the idea. Maybe given a little extra time in the future, we can start knocking some of these bars off the list.
(Now with new improved layout!)

Local punk band Throb Zombie goes on stage right before Total Chaos. If you haven't seen us before, this will be a great show to do it, and we can use all the local support we can get!
This band is just starting to get serious with their music. It would be greatly apreciated if you guys could show some support!
3 new songs up for streaming, band was previously known as CAGEMATCH. Still and perhaps more heavy and crushing as before. Bang your heads.
