Atlanta's Upchuck have announced debut album 'Sense Yourself'. The first cut off the record “Boss Up” is an uncompromising bruiser, and also foreshadows some of the major themes that define the group’s sound and vision: “Calls for social change, a call for introspection and to heal one another, calls for awareness, and a call for action,” vocalist KT says. “Know what needs to be done and act on it, all the while managing to take time to have a good fucking time and release.”

Orange Island's lost and out of print full length has returned.

London three-piece More Kicks return to the fray with a brand new 7” single ‘Animal’, co-released on Dirtnap Records (USA) and Stardumb Records (EU)! Slinky, beefy and interminably catchy, ‘Animal’ is the first single from the band’s second record ‘Punch Drunk’, also out on Dirtnap and Stardumb in September 2022. The video for "Animal" was shot by Luke Baker and edited by James Sullivan.

Following on from the standalone single of the same name shared in May this year, today they release a brand new single and video featuring Ross Millard of the Futureheads – ‘Baby, Does Your Heart Sink’. The video sees the band auditioning to finally try and make some headway in the music industry. Unfortunately, they find the judges aren't as interested as they might have hoped.

Swami Records and Chicago punks Meat Wave — Ryan Wizniak (drums), Joe Gac (bass) and Chris Sutter (vocals, guitar) — are excited to announce the Friday, October 14 release of Malign Hex, the band’s fourth full-length album. The 10-track album, which features the brand new single “What Would You Like Me To Do” as well as previously released jams “Ridiculous Car” and “Honest Living,” was recorded by Gac in 2019 and serves as the band’s most cohesive, dynamic and ambitious work to date. “Our sound in the beginning was consistently very driving,” says Gac.

What started as a creative catch-all for Cody Votolato (Blood Brothers, Telekenesis, Head Wound City) has morphed into one of 2022's breakout bands: JR SLAYER

"I think the world is gonna die before I do," Votolato sings on their new single and the title track to their debut EP, Not Rotten. "And if that's true, I just want to spend the rest of my time right here, sitting next to you." 

Breaking onto the hardcore scene in 2013, New York’s Regulate have shown a resilient and earnest approach in everything they do. This rings true on the band’s upcoming self-titled LP that will drop September 30th on their new label home, Flatspot Records. The first taste comes in single “Why Can’t We?,” which the band shares a video for today. The track is a thrill ride as guitars shift from manic to groove-driven, encircled by impassioned vocals from Sebastian Paba. The self-directed video perfectly encapsulates the band’s high-energy performance as the album’s artwork comes to life.
