Dillinger Four is a punk band formed in Minneapolis, MN in 1993. Founding members Erik Funk, Lane Pederson and Patrick Costello were later joined by Billy Morrissette in 1995, still often referred to as "the new guy", although the band has maintained the same lineup for nearly thirty years.
Creating a hybrid of the noisier elements of hardcore punk with classic punk's catchier leanings, along with a reputation for energetic, unpredictable , and even occasionally legendarily chaotic live shows, Dillinger Four developed a loyal cult following and influenced many bands coming after them despite a surprisingly unprolific musical output. They are a rare band in punk that blurs the lines within its many sub genres and enjoys support from a broad audience. Their catalogue consists of a few self-released 7"s followed by the albums Midwestern Songs of the Americas (1998) and Dillinger Four Versus God (2000) both on Hopeless Records, then Situationist Comedy (2002) and C I V I L W A R (2008) both on Fat Wreck Chords.

Since forming in 2002, Philadelphia’s Paint It Black have rewritten the rules of hardcore punk with each new release. Across three full-length albums and three seven-inch EPs, the four-piece of vocalist Dan Yemin, bassist Andy Nelson, guitarist Josh Agran, and drummer Jared Shavelson have been crafting concise, incisive statements that meld hardcore’s fury with a nuanced lyrical perspective. On Famine, the band’s upcoming 12-inch on Revelation Records, Paint It Black shows all sides of itself, returning as inspired—and inspiring—as they were a decade ago.
