Saint Punk and Matt McAndrew Pull No Punches on “Gloves”
With three new releases in the last three months alone, it’s safe to say grunge house trailblazer Saint Punk is on a roll.

Jumpstarted by a banging percussion line and blazing synths, “Gloves” is unrelenting and full of passion.

TED NUGENT: ‘There Isn’t A Gun Problem In America’
Ted Nugent says that recidivism is to blame for the recent rise in violent crime and gun violence in America.

In the first quarter of this year, the nationwide homicide rate was 24% higher than it was in the same period of 2020 and 49% higher than two years ago. A board member of the National Rifle Association, Nugent addressed the hot-button issue during his July 12 YouTube livestream.

Same law as San Francisco and L.A.: if you steal under $950 worth of merchandise from a business, they won’t prosecute you. This is insanity. ‘Crime’s out of control.’ Because you’re rewarding c...

It’s really aggressive, it is really in your face, and I think that probably is born out of the year that we’ve had. I mean, this has been such a bizarre 15 or 16 months.
