The Dwarves - JENKEM

Legendary and notoriously volatile, DWARVES return with a new full-length, JENKEM, arriving June 5 via Greedy Records (Distributed by MVD). Decades into a career that has cut across punk, hardcore, and heavy music, the band remains a fixture of underground culture — as influential as they are unpredictable, and long past the point of needing introduction.

The Dead Krazukies - Cipher

French melodic skate punk outfit The Dead Krazukies are back with CIPHER, their fourth full-length album, a fierce and emotionally charged release that pushes their sound further than ever before. Blending melodic punk with metal intensity, the record moves between raw rage and introspective depth. Mixed by Christian Carvin and mastered by Jason Livermore, CIPHER is shaping up to be the band’s most powerful work to date.

New Idea Society - Fire On The Hill

New Idea Society has taken on differing shapes and forms over the years, but at its heart is the duo of Mike Law (Wild Arrows, Eulcid) and Stephen Brodsky (Cave In, Mutoid Man), a pair enraptured and united by the alchemical power of songwriting. With a connection that can be traced back to their high school years, between them exists an intuitive understanding that informs exactly what New Idea Society is at any given point. On May 15, 2026, New Idea Society will release their fourth full length studio album, Fire On The Hill, via Relapse.

Mess - Somos Mess

We are MESS! Between announcing themselves to the world with the release of their first 12” EP Intercity and the release of their debut full length Under Attack, Guadalajara, Mexico’s MESS had a prolific two years.

Now, for the first time ever, all 16 songs released during that period - including the first EP - can be found in one place: together at last & freshly re-mastered on one glorious slab of wax. Pirates Press Records is proud to present SOMOS MESS (WE ARE MESS), a collection of the band’s much sought-after early work!

Noi!se - Fate Of The Union

In the decade since their last studio LP, longrunning Pacific Northwest streetpunk resolutes NOi!SE have been prolific, releasing enough singles, EPs, compilation appearances, and more to fill the collection LP On and On. Nevertheless, the band’s many international fans have continued to clamor for an all-new full length, and in 2026, the band delivers just that in the form of Fate of the Union on Pirates Press Records.

Big D And The Kids Table - The Good Ole American Saturday Night

After five years without new music, ska-punk legends BIG D AND THE KIDS TABLE return louder, freer, and more energized than ever with their 12th full-length album, The Good Ole American Saturday Night, due out June 12 via SideOneDummy Records. One of the most enduring and beloved bands in the genre, the Boston institution reunites with ska royalty Joe Gittleman (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones) and Matt Appleton (Reel Big Fish) — who produced the album — for a record that pushes forward while doubling down on everything that has defined their sound for more than three decades.

Drakulas - Midnight City

Austin’s creepiest bad boys are back!

After a few years of wandering in the wilderness, Drakulas return to their spiritual home at Dirtnap Records (and Wild Honey Records in Europe/UK!) to unleash Midnight City upon the world!

Drakulas move in the shadows of a neoned, late’70s city—protopunk bite, garage grit, ’80s synth ghosts and newwave chill wrapped in world-building, nocturnal lyrics.

Seahaven - Seahaven

Six years after the release of ‘Halo of Hurt’, Seahaven returns with their upcoming fourth studio self-titled album out June 5 via Pure Noise Records. Self-produced, engineered by Alex Estrada at Pale Moon Ranch in Juniper Hills, CA, and mixed and mastered by Grammy Award-winning producer Will Yip, Seahaven finds the Torrance, CA band delivering what may be their most defining statement to date.

The Meffs - Business

Essex-based punk duo The Meffs will release their second album "Business" on 11th September via FLG -and have released the title track as a single.

 

 On the single the band comment: "In life you're told to be your 'authentic self', but only if your 'authentic self' fits a mould, only if you 'authentic self' is on brand. We're not hard enough but we're not soft enough, we're not queer enough but we're too queer, etc. We're okay with that; we know who we are and we know what we stand for. 'Business' is a love song."
