Long Knife
Grounding themselves in early 80s American hardcore, Long Knife is not afraid to delve into moments that could almost be classified as classic rock. Imagine Kiss playing Poison Idea, with a healthy amount of Japanese hardcore and even some British hardcore thrown in. It’s this unique mix that makes Long Knife one of the best current hardcore acts. – Joseph Yanick, Vice,

Home Front
Created on the western edges of the infinite plains and prairies of coldest Canada, Edmonton, Alberta’s HOME FRONT dance freely and madly along the edges of time and create their own moment amongst the revered and long frozen reserves of THE CURE, SUICIDE, ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN, “Second Empire Justice” era BLITZ, and NEW ORDER. A record bubbling over with analog synth, guitar loops, slammed 808 drums, and anthemic vocal pushes tugging at the great moment in-between the “death” of punk and the “birth” of new wave, pulling fresh sounds into their punk roots and shoving a studded leather jacket around a silk robe. Justice, violence, doubt and uncertainty a la Gary Numan narrating a Warren Miller Extreme Ski Special on the set of TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA: this is HOME FRONT.

Poltergeist
Consider Poltergeist your one-stop shop for goth sounds. Kalen Baker and his not-so-merry band somehow manage to mix metal, post-punk, cold wave and shoegaze into a cohesive whole. Slasher movie synth? Check. Disembodied moans, creaky-basement bass and absolute shredding? Check, check, check. – https://www.sledisland.com/

Puppet Wipes
Local punks Arielle McCuaig and Kayla MacNeill’s new project puppet wipes is a “celebration of musical amateurism, lyrical experimentation and the wonder of performance.” Songs are created in the moment on tape, using voice, guitar, clarinet, synth and a whole lotta instinct. It’s an exploration of what can happen when you create in real time without a filter. – https://www.sledisland.com/2022/puppet-wipes
