FEST has announced its dates for this year. The festival will be back in Gainesville, Florida on October 25, 26, and 27. The first lineup announcement will be on April 15. The art for the flyer was created by Horsebites.

It is called Dangerous and will be out on May 17 on Sneak Dog Records, the new independent label run by Gwendolyn Giles, Lucy Giles, and Teens In Trouble’s Lizzie Killian.

<p>And just like that, we have officially entered Boston Calling artist anticipation season. Our undying rhinestone cowgirl love for Chappell Roan is already well-documented, and earlier this month we hyped the magnetic R&B touch of d4vd.

Wristmeetrazor are constantly evolving their sound and their upcoming third album Degeneration is a perfect example of this. The band leans more into their industrial and metallic side while also making use of groovy riffs as they hold a magnifying glass up to the state of the human race. Over the course of 12 tracks (and one hidden one) they explore how society (along with themselves) has degenerated in the past few years with philosophical and oftentimes misanthropic lyrics that explore what it means to be human, the true meaning of revenge, the destructive yearning for fame, the hypocrisy of the world we live in, and dive deep into what it means to lose your identity. Degeneration will be out everywhere on March 29 via Prosthetic Records. Wristmeetrazor will be touring the Eastern US starting in April.Punknews editor Em Moore caught up with lead vocalist Justin Fornof over Zoom to talk about the album, writing and recording in near-total isolation, philosophy, dental hygiene, and so much more.
