The Dirty Nil play rock and roll. Loud, distorted, and out of control, they play like it's a fever they're trying to sweat out. Reveling in the din of distorted guitars, pounding drums, and desperately howled vocals, the Hamilton Ontario three-piece makes music for turntables and hi-fi's - music for dive bars and house parties - for beer drinking and joint smoking - for road trips and barbecues - for fighting and yelling and shouting and singing and screaming and howling - for sweating and bleeding - trying and failing and trying again anyways. Gravel-in-your guts, spit-in-your-eye, staggering, bloodthirsty rock and roll. They have two 7"s available that capture the snarl and destructive noise they create. The Dirty Nil play rock and roll - cause they couldn't do a damn thing else if they tried.

Bic recently worked with Sir Tīmoti Kāretu and Hinewehi Mohi to translate and rerecord her international hit Sway, creating the te reo Maori version - Haere Mai Rā/Sway - for the Waiata/Anthems album which debuted at number one in September 2019.

True to the band’s name, death creeps into nearly all of Greet Death’s songs. And yet, through this ever-present certainty, the band finds the absolute core of what it means to be alive. Since 2011, elementary school friends Logan Gaval and Harper Boyhtari have been writing songs full of big ideas and everyday details. Their music, loud and full of melodic sensibility, draws from shoegaze, doomgaze, and a little-bit-of-everything-gaze, creating an emotionally maximalist palette. Writing separately but playing together (think of them as small-town Michigan’s Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus), they’ve been drawing in a devoted crowd ever since their unexpectedly successful debut Dixieland in 2017, followed by their next-level opus New Hell in 2019. You’d be hard-pressed to find albums with such heart: ones flooded both with full-bloom feelings and the dumb stories we tell ourselves in order to get through the day.

Backstage at the Camden Underworld, minutes before his band Dead Pioneers take the stage and devastate a capacity crowd with all the pain, power and primal energy of a classic punk-rock show, Gregg Deal exhales slowly. He’s been warming to his theme for almost an hour now, in much the same way an acetylene torch warms to the metal it must burn through. That theme is America, and there are few voices in punk-rock so uniquely qualified to speak on the country’s moral, social and political degradation, especially in the era of the orange despot.

Twenty One Children are the riotous punk pulse of Johannesburg-a fearless trio tearing up the rulebook and rewriting South Africa’s alt-music playbook. Born from the bond between friends Thula and Abdula, completed by drummer Biko, their sound fuses the grit of U.S. skate punk with the heartbeat of Soweto, erupting in a whirlwind of noise, soul, and subversion. With sharp wit and an unshakable DIY ethos, they’re not just a band-they’re a movement. From building the local skate park to throwing benefit shows for schoolbooks, Twenty One Children bleed community. Their music crackles with the defiance of Dead Kennedys, yet pulses with a distinctly homegrown fire. Spending 2025 turning heads in the UK at The Great Escape and Dot To Dot, and on to a tour of Africa with punk legends DEATH, they’re only just getting started. 2026 isn’t just another year-it’s the Year of Twenty One.

Guitarists/vocalists Audrey Keelin and Nicholas Byrne, bassist Michael Matsakis, and drummer Henry Cutting create a twinkly, raw folk-alternative rock collaboration that blends earnest storytelling with intricate, guitar-driven textures.

Lesson was released on March 22nd of that year through independent Brooklyn-based label HATETOQUIT.
