Bitter Thoughts, Sex Scenes (mke), Coronary, Shrike

Since 2016, Milwaukee band Sex Scenes’ snotty blend of thrash riffs, mid tempo hardcore and catchy hooks has made them a unique presence in both the hardcore and indie rock/punk scenes around the Midwest. Throughout their long tenure, they’ve played shows with everyone from Weedeater to Jack White; not being out of place on either bill. Although the band’s songs are unquestionably rooted in hardcore punk, their sound and presence are distinctly their own, and it's that signature quality that makes them a fitting presence on most stages. The band’s lineup has shifted throughout the years, but has been fronted by Sarah Turbo since 2021. In late 2023, they released "Fed Up," the first EP with Turbo on the mic. A full length album “Everything Makes Me Sick” is coming out May 9th through Big Neck Records.

We are a hardcore punk band from Chicago

Chicago style hardcore punk since 2015. New LP "M.A.D.ness" available now. "It’s not often I hear a band sound like Power Trip then Extortion then Look Back & Laugh then Bib then Bolt Thrower in the same minute-long song." (Matt Korvette / Yellow Green Red)
