Kenosha, Wisconsin’s Jungle Rot deliver a punitive blend of old-school thrash metal, death metal, crossover, crusty punk and are known to integrate slow stomp melodies into their style. Having garnered a loyal following over the last 30+ years, they never tried to be the goriest or most technical band in the extreme underground, but instead […]
Trash Panda
Originally from Orlando, Florida, the raccoon-themed slamming deathgrind trio Trash Panda has set itself the mission of spreading its very distinctive brand of death metal across the Floridian extreme music scene. The band kicked things off in 2021 with an onslaught of riffs on their debut EP, Valley of Junk. Inspired by acts such as […]
MakeWar
The world needs MakeWar right now more than it ever has. Comprised of three South Americans – vocalist/guitarist Jose Prieto, bassist Edwin Santacruz and drummer Alejandro Serritiello – the Brooklyn-based trio epitomize the nature of the American Dream perfectly. Not that capitalist lie about bootstraps and success and wealth, but the one where community is […]
Death By Stereo
Since their inception in 1998, DEATH BY STEREO has been balancing consciousness and chaos with their unique genre-bending amalgam of hardcore, metal and punk.

Satanic Surfers
SATANIC SURFERS have already left quite a mark on the worldwide-scene, steadily increasing their position as a 90’s version of the HARD-ONS. Having established themselves as one of the leading European melodic punk bands worldwide, yet being nowhere near mainstream popularity, the band has received massive underground success and a cult-status comparable to that of […]
Hatebreed
With unflinching tenacity, the impenetrable heavy metal hardcore factory that is HATEBREED has brought forth yet another iron cast, sonic weapon with Weight Of The False Self. It comes as no surprise that their eighth, full length album is the result of the usual sweat and blood that have cemented HATEBREED’s unique niche in the […]

Teenage Bottlerocket
Teenage Bottlerocket have always been about the essentials: fast songs, fun shows, and friends who feel more like family. With their new album Ready to Roll, dropping this September on Pirates Press Records, they’re leaning harder than ever into the punk rock values that started it all—no gimmicks, no agenda, just straight-up energy, melody, and […]
Bad Religion
Aside from essentially defining the California half-pipe punk blueprint, Bad Religion has defied the usual trend-shifts or values-ditched ubiquities of the usual punk band storyline and morphed along with challenging album after challenging album amid astoundingly consistent touring, retaining their core audience while roping in subsequent generations of anxiously energetic kids. The band has long […]
Guttermouth
Formed in Huntington Beach, California in 1988, Guttermouth was heavily influenced by the Southern California punk rock scenes of the 1980s which spawned bands such as the Adolescents, The Vandals, Social Distortion, Fear, Descendents, Angry Samoans, Bad Religion and Black Flag. The band took these influences and developed their own style of fast, punk tempos […]
