Five Hundred Bucks about their new album 'Pest Sounds'
Hailing from Philly’s underground, Five Hundred Bucks is the brainchild of Jeff Riddle (formerly of The Holy Mess) and drummer William Francis Orender (Captain, We’re Sinking).
DFMK - Playa Nuclear
Alternative Tentacles is proud to present “Playa Nuclear”, the brand-new album from Tijuana, B.C. Mexico’s own DFMK. Started in 2009, DFMK have released several EP’s and a Full-Length LP before meeting Jello Biafra at an underground “if you know a punk” show at a motorcycle shop in Oakland, CA that led to the release of the “Dame Peligro” 7” in 2022.
Templeton Pek - Savages
SBÄM Records and Double Helix Records are proud to announce the return of UK punk rock powerhouses Templeton Pek with their highly anticipated new album Savages, set for release on October 3, 2025. The band have just dropped their blistering new single “Artifact”.
Fresh off the back of touring with legends Bodyjar, Urethane, Hell is for Heroes, and a sold-out Slam Dunk side show with Less Than Jake in their hometown of Birmingham, Templeton Pek continue their charge with a song that captures the urgency of the times.
Summerbruise - Infinity Guise
Indianapolis-based “fake emo” band Summerbruise put out a new single, “Man! I Feel Like A Dumbass!” This track is part of their new full-length record, Infinity Guise, coming out September 19th via SideOneDummy Records. Angsty, brutally honest, and hilarious, this new single is an anthem for anyone who has ever second-guessed their every word, blown their last $10 on regret, or found themselves in a headlock with their own brain. In true Summerbruise fashion, they perfectly ride the line between self-deprecating humor and emotional turmoil.

Dropkick Murphys - For The People
‘For The People’ is already the Dropkick Murphys’ thirteenth album and while at this point they have nothing left to prove, it shows they still have plenty of gas left in the tank.
Sam Russo - Hold You Hard
For his fourth album, UK acoustic punk troubadour (I believe that’s his official job title) Sam Russo approached things a bit differently.
Freezing Cold - Treasure Pool
I’m still not quite able to forgive NYC’s Freezing Cold for releasing a song as great as ‘Stuck On Hold’ in 2021 and then keeping us waiting for four long years.
