P.E.E.
P.E.E. (occasionally short for Potentially Egregious Error, sometimes just Pee) formed in San Francisco in 1993 when guitarists/vocalists Jim Stanley and Kelly Green recruited drummer Andee Connors, then active in J Church and A Minor Forest, and eventually bassist Tiber Scheer, who would later play in Lowercase. They became fixtures of the Bay Area DIY scene, sharing stages with Boys Life, Jimmy Eat World, Drive Like Jehu, Three Mile Pilot, Heavy Vegetable, Jawbreaker, and Track Star. They also opened for Cheap Trick, Modest Mouse and Neutral Milk Hotel, to name a few. They were Noise Pop regulars.
Their 1996 debut, “Now, More Charm and More Tender,” came out on March Records to favorable reviews. This was followed in 1998 by their more complex and layered second album, “The Roaring Mechanism,” which was originally released on Absolutely Kosher Records.
P.E.E.’s songs are fast, hook-laden, and strange: grind pop with genuine melodic instincts, several clocking in under 90 seconds. The best way to describe them is to imagine all your favorite bridges from all your favorite songs, strung together one after another, each one more unexpected than the last. Every track has a million different parts, and somehow it all holds. The band completed three US tours before going on hiatus in 1999 as members moved on to other projects.
For most of the next two decades they were largely forgotten. Then, in 2023, YouTuber 108 Mics released a mini-documentary called "A Band Called Pee," which included a full band interview. That video, combined with growing attention on Rate Your Music (where “Now, More Charm…” now ranks as the sixth-highest rated math pop release on the site), brought a new generation to the record. Original pressings started selling on Discogs for up to $325.
In August 2025, the band released their full catalog digitally for the first time and announced their return. A 30th anniversary reissue of “Now, More Charm and More Tender” followed in February 2026, remastered with new artwork. The first pressing sold out immediately. Their reunion shows in spring and early summer, beginning with the 2026 Noise Pop Festival, have all sold out. A vinyl and cassette reissue of tracks from an early recording called, “i win me over.” was released in spring of 2026 on Deathbomb Arc.

GAPYEAR
Salt Lake City, Utah’s gapyear have quickly carved out a place in the current screamo and skramz revival with a sound that balances visceral intensity with bittersweet melody. Comprised of Justin Phipps (guitar, vocals), Ethan Guertler (bass, vocals), and Keyan Adams (drums), the trio channels the rawness of early screamo and emo violence into songs that feel equally chaotic and deeply melodic. Their 2023 split with fellow Salt Lake City band Koshe introduced gapyear’s tightly wound, emotionally charged songwriting, while subsequent DIY touring throughout the western U.S. helped build a dedicated following around their live shows.
In June 2025, gapyear released their self-titled EP, a four-song collection featuring “Mouthbreather,” “The Part Where She Cries,” “I Slept with Dorothy in a Dream,” and “Be My Friend.” The release sharpened the band’s mix of distorted guitars, screamed vocals, and melodic passages, with “Mouthbreather” becoming one of their most recognized songs. By 2026, gapyear had expanded their touring footprint, including a U.S. tour supporting Santa Cruz DIY band First Day Back. Operating firmly within the DIY ecosystem, the band has continued to grow through touring and word of mouth rather than traditional industry infrastructure, becoming a notable name in the contemporary screamo revival.

THE RITORNELLO FORM
Las Vegas emo band The Ritornello Form channel the melodic guitar interplay, earnest vocals, and restless energy of ’90s Midwest emo through the lens of today’s DIY scene. The band has become part of the current wave of second-wave emo revival, drawing comparisons to the classic sound of the genre while maintaining a distinctly contemporary, scrappy approach. Their music balances intricate guitar lines and dynamic arrangements with emotionally direct songwriting, giving their songs a sense of both nostalgia and immediacy. Vocalist and drummer Abby Walker is also a member of Las Vegas screamo band Febuary, further connecting The Ritornello Form to the city’s growing DIY emo and hardcore community.
In June 2026, The Ritornello Form released their debut full-length, Majority Rule, a nine-song album that established the band as one of the newer names to watch within the current emo revival. Tracks including “I.F.W.,” “Louisville Slugger,” “History On Pause,” and “You Can’t Graph Goodbyes” showcase their mix of angular guitar work, driving rhythms, and melodic hooks. The album was followed by the band’s first full-length headline tour, which took them across the U.S. in July and August, including stops in Los Angeles, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Charlotte, Atlanta, and San Diego. Their growing profile also earned a spot on Pitchfork’s July 2026 Selects playlist, which featured “I.F.W.”

PUNXSUTAWNEY
punxsutawney are a Los Angeles band working at the intersection of ’90s hardcore emo, post-rock, and instrumental indie rock. Built around interlocking guitars, dynamic rhythm sections, and long-form arrangements, the band’s music moves between delicate, introspective passages and explosive, distorted peaks. Their sound has a distinctly cinematic quality, with songs developing patiently before collapsing into heavier, cathartic sections. The lineup includes Sage Roth-Berg on bass, Albert Peacock and Sam Takano on guitars, and Michael Bilson and Caleb Gomes on drums.
In April 2025, punxsutawney released their Untitled EP, featuring four tracks including “Rin,” “Not The Way Home,” and the 11-minute “Landing System.” The release established the band within the contemporary emo/post-rock underground, and they subsequently toured alongside acts including Vs Self, while playing shows throughout Los Angeles and across the U.S. In 2026, punxsutawney continued building their live presence with dates in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Savannah, New York, Los Angeles, and elsewhere, including a show at The Echo with gapyear in April.
