Ithaca has announced that they will be disbanding after 12 years together. The band announced this in an Instagram post which reads, ”RIP ITHACA 2013-2025 Ithaca is coming to an end. This was a huge decision to make, but it’s the right time.  There’s been no falling out or creative differences, in fact we’re closer than ever, we’re just no longer able to balance our life responsibilities with giving you the standard of art that you deserve, and feel like we’ve fulfilled more than our wildest dreams could have imagined in terms of where this band would take us. Now, we’re ready to put it to rest.  We don’t quite have the words yet to describe what this band and all of your support has meant to us; that’ll come over time.  But it’s not the end just yet. We came to this decision together so, true to us, we want to mark the end of this journey with intention and in style. We’ll be releasing a final track, and we’d like to cordially invite you to our funeral: our final headline show, The Cremation Party, where we can grieve together. It’ll be a proper wake- there’ll be DJs, us cracking out old songs we’ve not played in years and, inevitably, lots of crying. Tickets go on sale Friday 1st November 10am, we’ll see you there. Love always “ The band will be playing their final headlining show on February 8, 2025 at the O2 Academy Islington in London, UK. Ithaca released two EPs and two albums over the time they’ve been together, the last of which was their 2022 album They Fear Us. Check out the post in full below.

<p>Back in the Before Times, we used to do a hefty amount of dirty rock and roll business with Sean Camargo, a Berklee standout who either led or helped augment a series of Boston bands like Radclyffe Hall, The Colonnade, Plastic Waves, and others. The past few years have found Camargo down in the underrated New York City borough of Queens, fronting S.C.A.B., a colorful post-punk and jangle-pop project that on Friday (October 25) released a new EP called Rose Colored […]</p>

Since Goddess formed in 2022, the Hamilton-based quartet have been pushing rock to new heights and this is extremely evident on their new album PINKNDARK. The band effortlessly blends the urgency of punk, the sleaziness of glam, the crunchiness of rock, and the brightness of electronic music together to create a listening experience that will make you feel as if you’ve been transported to another realm. The band’s energy never lets up for a minute and shifts with the lyrics as they explore love and lust, talk about mental health, dive into A.I., and confront systemic oppression over the course of 10 tracks. PINKNDARK is available digitally everywhere now and you can stream it on Spotify right here. Goddess will be playing their ‘Nightmare In Pink’ show on October 31 at Vertagogo in Hamilton and there will be an afterparty at Goddess House following the show. Punknews editor Em Moore caught up with guitarist Praveen, vocalist Pramuk, bassist Nicky, and drummer Eric to talk about the new album, throwing events at Goddess House, creating community, A.I., and so much more. Read the interview below!This interview between Em, Praveen, Pramuk, Nicky, and Eric took place over Zoom on October 25, 2024 while they were on their way to a show.
