Review by Simon McDonagh

Album Review: Nothing Is Easy by Subway Arts Alright, let’s get into Nothing Is Easy by Subway Arts. This punk rock gem hailing from Luxembourg is raw, unfiltered, and dripping with attitude. Released under Not On Label (which kinda feels like a middle finger to the whole music industry machine—love it), this album doesn’t try to be anything it’s not. It’s just straight-up punk vibes, no frills attached. Now, there are ten tracks on here, but I wanna zoom in on two that really stuck with me. First up, “Do You Believe.” Man, this song kicks off the album with a punch-you-in-the-face energy. The guitar riffs are sharp enough to cut glass, and the vocals have this raspy desperation that makes you feel like they’re screaming right at ya. It’s one of those songs where you can practically hear the sweat and frustration dripping off the mic. Lyrically, it’s got this questioning vibe—like, do you actually believe what you say you do? Or are you just full of crap? Feels personal, even if it’s not talking directly to me. Then there’s “Barfly.” Oh man, this track hits different. It’s slower than some of the others, but don’t mistake that for softness. There’s this gritty storytelling going on, almost like you’re sitting in a dingy bar overhearing someone spill their guts about life falling apart. The melody’s catchy as hell too—I found myself humming it hours later, which is wild because usually I forget lyrics faster than my own passwords. Something about the way the vocals crackle over the steady drumbeat gives it this lived-in authenticity. Like yeah, we’ve all been that person nursing a drink alone while the world spins outta control. The rest of the album keeps the momentum rolling. Tracks like “War” bring the chaos, while “In My Head” leans more introspective. And how could I skip “Mindless Fool”? That chorus sticks to your brain like gum under a table. But honestly, every track brings its own flavor to the mix. Here’s the thing about Nothing Is Easy: it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it doesn’t need to. It’s real, messy, and unapologetically human. Punk rock isn’t supposed to be perfect—it’s supposed to make you feel something. And damn, this album does exactly that. Random thought before I sign off: Luxembourg has a punk scene?! Who knew? Guess small countries can pack a big punch when it comes to rocking out. Props to Subway Arts for reminding us that nothing worth doing is ever easy—but hey, maybe that’s kind of the point.

Interesting fact about Album

Did you know? The punk rock album *Nothing Is Easy* by Subway Arts, from Luxembourg, was released independently on the "Not On Label" label. It’s raw and unfiltered, just like its tracks—my favorite is “Written In Pints,” which feels like a gritty anthem for anyone who’s ever felt out of place. Punk at its core, it’s got that rebellious edge without needing a big-name label to back it.
