Primetime Failure will release their new EP, “Scars,” this September. The record reflects a turbulent period for the band, shaped by a member change, personal ups and downs, and the uncertainties of recent years.
According to the band, the songs developed organically rather than from a fixed plan, resulting in a collection centered around life’s highs and lows, memories, resilience, and the experiences that leave their mark.
The Linda Lindas’ third album, Gotta Get Out, captures the urgent, restless energy of breaking free to discover a bold, new identity. The record evolves their signature Gen-Z punk grit with adventurous synth textures and anthemic, sing-along grooves. Gotta Get Out is the definitive statement from a band fully coming into their own, showcasing the most ambitious and wide-ranging sound of their career.
Gotta Get Out track listing:
After years of kicking around the scene playing in various bands the gravitational pull of the earth brought together this group of punk rock veterans to form Jacksonville Florida’s Tides in 2023.
In just a short period of time they have created a buzz sharing the stage with punk rock stalwarts like Alkaline Trio, Hot Water Music, The Subhumans, New Junk City, The Iron Roses, Raging Nathans, Spares, and Tiltwheel just to name a few.
Pressure Set have announced their debut single, "Blood Gimmick," the first taste of their forthcoming self-titled album, due out later this year on Dr. Strange Records.

The five members spent years playing in other bands in and around the Midwest.

Connecticut post-hardcore band Montclair announce their upcoming self-titled EP due out September 25th through New Morality Zine (Make Do and Mend, Chico). On the three track Montclair EP, the band balances between frantic and melodic, taking influence from the likes of Thursday, Thrice, and Planes Mistaken for Stars. Single “Eyesight,” out now, clocks in at under two minutes, unleashing a passionate blend of screamed and clean-sung vocals gliding across shifty chords and pulsating rhythms.
Louisville, Kentucky's Strange Birds releases its Little Victories album via Sweet Cheetah Records on September 4.

Québec City melodic punk band Still Insane has released “Do What You Want,” the third and final single from their upcoming album, When Friendship’s Not Enough, arriving September 4 via Thousand Islands Records.
Fast, direct and unapologetic, “Do What You Want” is a call to take control of your own life. The track pushes back against those who try to dictate someone else’s choices—even the people closest to them—and captures the moment when breaking free becomes more important than meeting other people’s expectations.
