Thirdface have returned with the announcement of their new album, Ministerial Cafeteria, due out November 1st via Exploding In Sound Records. Thirdface blend mind-bending technicality with sheer ferocity into a one-of-a-kind take on hardcore that's as visceral as it is impressive. On Ministerial Cafeteria they dial their sound even further into the red, drawing on elements of punk, grindcore, and noise rock into one of the most inventive aggressive albums of the year. 

Bad Astronaut's new album, Untethered, is set for release on November 8th, offering a fresh perspective on the band's classics. These reworked versions strip the songs down to their core, relying only on cello, piano, and vocals to highlight the raw emotion and songwriting behind each track. The band aims to showcase the essence of the music by removing most of the original instrumentation, allowing fans to connect with the heart of each song in a more intimate setting. The first single, "Grey Suits," is now streaming on all digital platforms.

A harrowing document of life, death and transcendence, Do You Still Love Me? is the fifth album from Planes Mistaken for Stars, the band’s second outing for Deathwish and first new music since 2016. It is also the first PMFS release since the death of Gared O’Donnell, whose cancer diagnosis loomed heavily over the recording and whose ghost guided the mix. Chemo and radiation would not stop him from making this masterpiece, in which the band finds itself reeling from the gut-wrenching horrors of their leader’s unimaginable absence.

Pinhead Gunpowder - Billie Joe Armstrong, Aaron Cometbus, Jason White & Bill Schneider - have announced their new LP, 'Unt,' to be released on October 18th via 1-2-3-4 Go Records. Check out the title track below.

"Pinhead Gunpowder started writing songs in 1990 and made our first 7” the following spring. Nearly every year since, we’ve met up to play. Some years we recorded—five albums and eleven EPs—and some years we played shows.

Crushing Low are a new 5-piece punk-rock band from London, England. They aren’t big on metaphors… Their songs are directly about ways they could accidentally die in horrible accidents. Think of them as paranoia punk. Their first album, ‘This Is How We Die’ is released on September the 25th and is an existential crisis/reflection on mortality in a concise eight tracks and twelve minutes. In that short time they briskly surf the choppy waves of pop-punk, Epifat skate-punk and hardcore in one of the most fun projects they’ve ever been involved in.

Your world was doomed the moment they attacked from orbit, unleashing brutal sonic barrages that left you in awe. Now, Prime Directive has made landfall with 'The Fallout,' and their invasion has begun. This record masterfully blends old-school punk with elements of Rock & Roll, Heavy Metal, and a little bit of pop, crafting a bleak yet tongue-in-cheek horror/sci-fi soundscape. It evokes nostalgia for days gone by while reflecting on our dystopian future. Strap in, grab some popcorn, and witness the beginning of the end

While announcing their debut full album, Loud Love drops their third and final single. "Taylor" is a punchy, high-energy track with catchy melodies, blending post-punk and indie vibes. As always, it's powered by that signature Loud Love HC-punk attitude. The song was recorded at Big Dog Recordings with Tim van Doorn playing a key role in shaping the production of the new album and further developing the LL sound, the album is set to be released at the end of September 20th on White Russian Records.
