SUNBURSTER

Neolithic, knuckle-draggin, grunge-tinged sludge metal that'll hit all the right notes for anyone falling in between Eyehategod and Alice In Chains.

CHERUBS

A Good Life After Death Begins With Cherubs.
Nobody has made music as loud, noisy and evil as the infernal racket Cherubs produced. This is pure, heavy, intense, in-the-red punk noise which will melt your face off. It's beautiful.
One of the most vital underground bands of the 90s.

MALGUIST

Don’t Pray.  No self serving divine contrivance will save us.  Embrace decimation.  An Illusory Apex.  Christ just keeps on dying and we aren’t too far behind.  AI will not love, pity or help us.  We are a threat, and will be handled as such.  Savor the irony that the “Artificial” Intelligence ushering oblivion is more real than any God ever was.  Ha.  We are barely out of the jungle and on our way to the heap.  Next.

ROCK BOTTOM

This hardcore band of bastards first emerged from the snake room of a Philadelphia suburb basement. It was there that they grew their following with brazen, unfettered tributes to the devil. METALLIC HARDCORE ROOTS MEETS CROSSOVER THRASH METAL RIFFS BRINGS ROCK BOTTOM BACK INTO EXISTENCE IN 2022.

TEN TON HAMMER

Ten Ton Hammer is a blistering hardcore unit formed in 2014 in Philadelphia. The city operates as more than an origin; It's an integral piece of the rhythmic and chaotic sound pioneered by area legends like Turmoil and Starkweather. Ten Ton Hammer combines this style with 90’s metal, a strong dose of New England hardcore, and a lyrical approach focusing on depression and self-analysis to form a unique voice.

FIGHT AMP

FIGHT AMPUTATION was a heavy, grungy, hardcore punk crossed with sludgerock trio from the seedy underbelly of Philadelphia's noise rock scene active '04 - '16.

MY TURN TO WIN

Emerging from the heart of the Philadelphia tri-state area in 2004, My Turn to Win is David Rosney, Jess Goldey, Justin Shepp, Len Carmichael, and Mark Antonio. Creating a signature blend of solid, high-speed modern hardcore, marked by tasteful breakdowns and anthemic sing-alongs. Drawing inspiration from legendary acts like Kill Your Idols, H2O, Sick of it All, Gorilla Biscuits, Madball, The Promise, Blacklisted, and Suicide File, My Turn to Win channels the raw energy and spirit of hardcore's roots while infusing it with their unique contemporary flavor.

BRING HER

Based out of Pittsburgh, BRING HER play a distinctive brand of somber darkwave, defined by haunting and magnetic vocals over pounding and obsessive drum machines, penetrating guitar chords and eerie and harrowing synths.

THOUSANDAIRE

Thousandaire is, from left to right: Andrew Wiggins, Tom Bruno, and Chad LeBlanc from Atlanta, Ga. They are not fashion models, t-shirt salesmen, poets, activists, charismatic cult leaders, or influencers. They are musicians. They are good at music, not good at "content". Don't expect much of anything besides regular rock and roll at a reasonably high volume.

LOW DOSE

Built from the ashes of a marriage gone sour, Philadelphia's LOW DOSE formed as an exercise in catharsis. Featuring the final lineup of cult noise-rock workhorses Fight Amp with the addition of vocalist Itarya Rosenberg of the late Legendary Divorce, LOW DOSE play heavy, grunge-tinged punk that is as visceral as it is infectious.

EYECANDY

Eyecandy, a three piece punk outfit from Oxnard CA, describes themselves as 'pretty noise rock'. A simple, sort of odd moniker... yet once you listen, it makes sense. You could go into the depths of finding the bands they remind you of and you might get hints of some Unwound, Slint, Polvo... or even Vitrious Humor... or Jawbox? Either way, none of this really matters, because it's clear Eyecandy isn't directly pulling from any of these bands, and may not even be aware of the similarities. These are just young punks playing the music they want to play and carving their own path.

CAGED

Formed out of the ashes of Philadelphia sludge band Black Urn, Caged ride a wave of sludge, death and doom. Crawling, corrosive riffs lay out a backdrop for vocalist John Jones, whose screams add another layer of misery. Caged create riffs that seem like they were dipped in industrial sonic pain to inflict maximum listening pleasure.

MULTICULT

This Baltimore trio featuring former members of Triac and Fight Amp is arguably the tighest and most well-oiled noise rock unit of the past 20 years. Leaving behind most of the metal influence and presenting a focused, legible, rhythmic sonic attack, Multicult hits the Big Black-by-way-of-Jesus-Lizard mark with their own unique perfection.

NERVER

GRAND MANTIS

BIKER DAUGHTER

TANGLED UP

Featuring members from Delaware-based bands Grace Vonderkuhn, Cave Life, and EyeBawl, Philadelphia band Tangled Up is clearly a sibling of those projects while forging their own path. Combining elements of aggressive noise rock with some of the more melodic elements of grunge rock, the four-piece band is both musically proficient while striking a creative balance between many genres. Fans of bands like Metz and Protomartyr will enjoy thoroughly.

GUNNA VAHM

Gunna Vahm, like its parent outfit, Midiron Blast Shaft, boastED a concussive rhythm section bearing down with subharmonic tones, a down-tuned distillation of dirty metal and sludgy punk riffing, contorted David Yow-like vocals, and a frightening strangeness at the core of each song.
