Le Bad Crew

Le Bad Crew is a Quebec-based bilingual independent punk webzine with current French and English features, video and newsletter surfaces, plus a direct no-fee route for monthly Quebec headliner submissions.

Le Bad Crew is an independent bilingual punk webzine whose first-party site identifies its operation as “Punk Québec 100%”. It publishes concert reviews, album columns, artist features, interviews and other coverage of local and international punk culture, with dedicated Canadian, riot grrrl, international, discovery and English-language sections. A substantive French concert review dated July 20, 2026, an English headliner feature dated July 1, 2026 and two additional French articles listed on July 21, 2026 establish current bilingual editorial activity. The homepage also carries a current music-video feature dated June 16, 2026 and the Bad Crew’s News newsletter. The outlet’s monthly Quebec-headliner invitation is a direct artist-facing route. A band, project or festival must be 100% Quebec and must email the outlet-designated organization inbox with a high-resolution landscape image, the project name, a short explanatory text, relevant information such as a website, the photographer’s name for image rights and the photographer’s professional website, using the subject line “Tête d’affiche”. No fee is displayed. The invitation says an eligible project could become the monthly headliner; it does not guarantee selection, publication or coverage. MusicList publishes only this feature-specific route. Sponsorship is separate and receives no submission credit. Named writers, editors, photographers, contributors and featured artists, their biographies and credits, any personal contact information, newsletter subscriber fields, submitted correspondence, images and text, and unrelated contact routes remain excluded.
