Ripped blue jeans, basement shows, and a chorus you never forget. In Carpazine Issue 47, Toronto’s melodic punk lifers Wasting Time bring the ’90s rushing back with their new single “Ripped Blue Jeans” — raw, nostalgic, and built for shouting along at full volume.

This isn’t retro—it’s memory, sweat, and melody carried forward.

Words that linger, lines that cut deep. We’re proud to feature the haunting and beautifully raw poetry of Misa Levey in Issue 47 of Carpazine.

Levey’s work moves through intimacy, desire, and quiet rebellion—each poem unfolding like a secret whispered in the dark. This is poetry that doesn’t just ask to be read, but felt.

Dive into Issue 47 and experience a voice that stays with you long after the last line.

Montréal’s underground is on fire—and The Wesleys are striking the match. Featured in Carpazine Issue 47, the band returns with Explosive Device, a raw, four-track blast of jangled guitars, urgency, and emotion. From the explosive charge of “Release Me!” to the introspective pull of “Magic Wand,” this EP captures a band locked in, louder and sharper than ever.

Out November 7 via Meritorio Records & Petit Village Records—paired with Outside Voices for their first physical release. This is the sound of a band catching flame.

Fake Friends turning tension into anthem. The Fake Friends crash into Carpazine Issue 47 with “A Sucker Born Every Minute”—a sharp, dance-punk pulse wrapped in post-punk grit. Born out of Montreal’s underground scene, the track hits hard: restless rhythms, jagged guitars, and lyrics that cut a little too close.

It’s sweaty, wired, and brutally honest—the kind of song that follows you long after it ends.

Carpazine Issue 47 dives into the haunting world of Sally Phantom and nothing feels safe. “Just Like Him” is devotion pushed to the edge: where love becomes worship, desire turns dangerous, and faith flickers under neon and VHS static. Distorted guitars, razor-sharp verses, and raw vulnerability collide in a track that demands to be blasted loud—alone, at night.

Blasphemous. Tender. Unfiltered.
This is not just a song—it’s a confession.

Carpazine Issue 47 dives deep into the mind—and manifestation—of Michael Sauter, the creator behind the electrifying Ariel Von Quinn. A life-sized fantasy born from pure imagination, Ariel isn’t just drag—she’s evolution, discipline, chaos, and control wrapped in latex, lashes, and unapologetic energy. From wardrobe malfunctions turned into moments of power to backflips in corsets, this is drag that refuses limits.

Two names. One force. No filter.

Enter the world where performance meets reality—and nothing is held back.
