Equal Vision Records, Dine Alone Records and The Flatliners are excited to announce the Friday, May 8 release of Cold World, the longstanding, Juno-nominated Canadian punk quartet’s brand new studio album. While 2022's New Ruin was preoccupied with the inherited damages of the last generation, Cold World sees that legacy for what it is — a ghost, a fading memory. If New Ruin was about the rage of realization, now we're damned with the aftermath of clarity. Welcome to the future. 

Los Angeles trio Failure – Ken Andrews, Greg Edwards, and Kelli Scott – announce ‘Location Lost’, their seventh studio album and fourth since reuniting in 2014 after a 17-year-hiatus. The LP features nine new tracks that showcase a focused, modern and ever-evolving vision of Failure’s utterly unique sound, led by first single ‘The Air’s on Fire.’ ‘Location Lost will arrive April 24th as the first release under Failure Records/Arduous Records/Virgin Music Group. 

Never hardcore enough for the punk scene, too destructive for the ska circle, and hailing from a small city no one has ever given a damn about, Offend Your Friends (members of The Color Morale, Dead Horses, Devils Teeth) has always done things their way. Almost Didn't Make It is no exception. Is it more polished or poppier than their earlier efforts? Maybe, but the songs are arguably better. The vocals are acerbic, bouncing between the literal and allegorical. The guitars are big, the bass gets funky, and the sax ties a melodic thread throughout.

Philadelphia power-pop powerhouse, The Blackburns, have staked their claim on alternative rock with their aptly-titled upcoming album Alternative Rock. The new albums follows up their 2024 self-titled debut that caught many listeners off-guard with extremely hooky, radio-friendly rock songs that felt like unearthed gems from the 90s. Everything that made their debut album stand out is carried over and even more focused on Alternative Rock. Your first glimpse at what's to come is their new single "A Reunion Show (Rated PG-13)", which is out now.

Smartpunk Records and War On Women are teaming up for a big year of new music that's as timely as ever. The band's fifth full-length album, "Time Under Tension," comes out on May 8, 2026.

This expansion and evolution are captured clearly in their latest single, "Messages Unsent".
