Blind Equation

Having grown up in the infamous 2010's Chicago area metal and hardcore scene, and over a decade existing in the furthest corners of the internet's niche cyber music communities, Blind Equation is the naturally selected herald of some the world wide web's so-called "weirdest" sounds. Standing on decades of underground and outsider sonic history, Blind Equation is the pinnacle evolution of the, until recently, obscure genres, nintendocore and cybergrind that were birthed in the Myspace era of the early '00's. 90's grindcore, Gen Z hyperpop, and Castlevania-esque video game soundtracks collide at blurring speeds under the keyboard of Blind Equation, and the subsequent amalgamation of otherwise completely incompatible styles is utterly heavenly (though, admittedly, jarring upon first listen). This deliciously digital sonic soup is comprised of the completely maximized forms of its influences and audible ingredients. The blasts: blistering, the vocals: scathing, the synths: from dirge-y dungeon depths to bombastic boss battles. The drum sequences are all around infectious and carry songs at an adventurous pace while expertly composed synths paint the perfect background for vocals that range anywhere from violent screams to effected digicore and hyperpop laden choruses. Blind Equation stands to usher in a whole new era of internet and cyber music. It's the artist you never knew you needed, but now that you've had a taste, simply cannot get enough of. -Natty Gray, Cult Love




Ultra Deluxe

Part screamo, part chiptune, overtly 8-bit, and always aggressive, Ultra Deluxe displays a wide variety of instrumentation. The anticipated synthesizers give way to harmonica, distortion and orchestra strings dance in a noise punk ode to Nintendo. A dark yet uplifting tone defined by driving bass lines and screams that echo the struggles of the proletariat.



Wifey

Wifey is a Brooklyn power-pop band formed by Teddy Grey and Carly Kerr, two hot dorks who prove that the theater-kid to punk-rocker pipeline is still claiming innocent victims. After working together on an R-rated Garfield musical (don’t ask), the two bonded over a mutual love of bubblegrunge, emo, and DIY, and began crafting the catchiest songs ever written. They were soon joined in marriage by Mickey Blurr on lead guitar, and Chris Canieso on drums, and the rest is history. The honeymoon phase never has to end with Wifey, thanks to their earworm hooks, enticingly questionable lyrics, and lovely harmonies that could only come from the happiest of marriages. Matrimony never looked so good.
