The underground noise-punk and global groove underground just got rattled by a massive dose of Aussie subversion! Hailing from Australia, the ferocious and completely unconventional drum-and-saxophone duo Party Dozen has officially announced their upcoming album, 21 Bum Salute, paired with a blistering lead single and music video: “Euro Stomper.” Arriving on the heels of their rowdy earlier anthem “Special Unit” (which served them well on tour alongside Amyl And The Sniffers), this new drop proves that Party Dozen are operating in a league entirely of their own.

• The DIY Ethos of 21 Bum Salute: Recorded, mixed, and mastered entirely by the band themselves, 21 Bum Salute promises to be their most unfiltered statement to date. As member Jonathan Tickle puts it best: “We’re having more fun than we’ve ever had before. This album is kind of putting a middle finger up and waving at someone with a smile at the same time. We’re egging you on to have a good time.” That punk-rock mischief bleeds through every single second of the new material.
• The Sonic Chaos of “Euro Stomper”: Throw out everything you thought you knew about traditional song structures. “Euro Stomper” is an uninhibited, adrenaline-fueled banger that weaponizes free-jazz saxophone freakouts, thunderous acoustic percussion, and industrial grit into a hypnotic dance-punk monster. It’s abrasive, wildly original, and engineered specifically to tear club PAs apart.
• The Visual Punch: Amplifying the track’s manic energy, “Euro Stomper” arrives equipped with an official music video directed by VERSUS, translating the duo’s chaotic live chemistry into a striking, high-impact visual companion that matches the song’s unrelenting pace.

The MusicWayATX Verdict: “Euro Stomper” is a masterclass in independent sonic vandalism. Party Dozen continue to prove that you don’t need guitars to make the most exciting, ferocious punk rock on the planet. 21 Bum Salute is shaping up to be an absolute mandatory listen.
