Pedigreed scene vets Rad Owl (ex-Samiam, Gratitude, The Stereo, etc.) are set to return with a predatory vengeance on their sophomore LP, Rage Gracefully, arriving May 31 via Sell The Heart Records (U.S.) and Engineer Records (EU/U.K.). The album title is a cheeky nod to the seasoned Minneapolis, Minnestota-based quartet’s quest to continue to level up as high-octane musicians and songwriters and maintain their plucky punk ethos, even in the unforgiving and often cynical face of middle age.

Last year NJ hardcore heavyweights GEL released their debut full-length, Only Constant, drawing acclaim from fans and critics alike and skyrocketing them into the ranks of aggressive music's most exciting new groups.

Over two years in the making, Long Island’s Stand Still is excited to announce the debut full-length, Steps Ascending, set for release June 14th through DAZE. Having teased with the title track and “Mysticism” earlier this year, today the band shares new single "In the Dying Light of a Setting Sun.” On the track, the band sticks true to their emotionally driven melodic hardcore, while also generating some of their heaviest material yet.

Based in various locations around the Midlands from Birmingham to Stratford reside the various members of Back Teeth. Having all met while partying it up at Punk Rock Holiday in Slovenia, 2022, this bunch of chancers and ex-members unfortunately decided to form a band. There was an immediate click and after months of arguing, tears and tantrums they called it Back Teeth. A few songs were written, some gigs were booked and here we now are with the first release of a 7” with 4 of those songs on.

In the history of guitar rock, there are few bands that have lasted until their ninth studio album. The Beatsteaks, on the other hand, are set to release their ninth album "PLEASE" and it comes with the urgency, wit and restlessness of an explosive debut LP.

"One of the things that unites us in the band is that we all can't keep still for long," smiles singer and guitarist Arnim Teutoburg-Weiß. The new album is "as fidgety as every single member of the Beatsteaks is" - and "always a bit too much".
