The Flatliners - New Ruin

The Flatliners are celebrating 20 years as a band, and what better way to kick the door down than with a brand new album! They return to FAT with “Performative Hours,” the ripping new single  and video from the forthcoming album, New Ruin, out on August 5th. Vocalist Chris Cresswell shares, “Returning to FAT for the release of our new album New Ruin is like the family reunion you actually want to attend; the reboot we can all get behind. It just feels like home to us.”

End It - Unpleasant Living

End It hails from Baltimore, MD and they want you to know it. On their upcoming EP,  Unpleasant Living, set for release July 8th on Flatspot Records, the band delivers with ferocity and purpose. The message? Mind your business. The first taste of the album comes in single “Hatekeeper” out today. The minute long song packs a fury with punchy guitars and a stand-out delivery from vocalist Akil. The video for the track is a hardcore take on The Chappelle Show's famous Playa Haters' Ball skit.

Grumpster - Fever Dream

Grumpster’s Pure Noise Records debut, FEVER DREAM, was put into motion quickly after the release of debut album Underwhelmed, which they never were able to tour properly due to the pandemic.

“We waited and waited to tour Underwhelmed, but things never stopped looking pretty bleak,” says Falyn Walsh. “We ended up doing a live stream with Anti-Flag during the pandemic where Chris #2 told us, ‘Write some new songs and let me produce them!’ We thought, ‘Oh, god, I guess we have to make a new record now.’”

SACK - Ripper!

Straight outta the slums of Northwest Denver, SACK is a mysterious band of party punks with songs about bongs, bikers, and brothels. Like any disreputable gang, they've had some rotating members, but on "Ripper!" it's Kody (of The Lillingtons, Teenage Bottlerocket), a couple shredders from Peru, a gym teacher, and the neighborhood electrician (which comes in handy, believe me). They recorded 12 songs at The Blasting Room and now these headbangers plan on touring (read: crashing house parties) across the land. For fans of Turbonegro, FEAR, The Dwarves, Motorhead, etc.

 

Supercrush - Melody Maker

Power pop fans rejoice! Supercrush have returned with the announcement of their new EP, Melody Maker, due out June 3rd. Melody Maker will be available worldwide via the band's own label KR Records in the U.S., Debt Offensive Records in Canada, Erste Theke Tonträger in Europe, and Flake Records in Japan. The new five song offering finds the Seattle-based group at their finest, delivering a dose of hook-laden alternative rock that lovingly embraces all things loud and catchy.
