25 more bands, and I might do another one of these lists before the year ends. Im surprised how quickly I came up with 25 more bands from post 2020 to recommend, and again, I felt bad for leaving a lot of bands off.
Dont recognize an album? Ask. Wanna recommend an album, put it in the comments!

Pretty stoked on this news! We’re teaming up with Fail Harmonic Records to press “What Got You Stoked in the First Place?” to 10” vinyl. Look out in early 2026!

Great one in the Hudson Valley last night to close out our 2025. What did we do to deserve wonderful bands like Mephiskapheles and Trouble Bound? How lucky are we to exist in the same time and place as @dcxpclive.bsky.social ?!

If you arent going out tonight, throw back a few cold ones and listen to the new Girth Control album. Their original debut was recorded live in a basement, and on the 10 year anniversary they released a studio version!
