STRUNG OUT (US) + BELVEDERE (CA)
Strung Out and Belvedere bring a high-speed rush of skate-punk, melodic hardcore and razor-sharp live energy.
STRUNG OUT (US)
Formed in California in 1989, Strung Out have long occupied a distinctive place in punk, fusing skate-punk speed, melodic hardcore urgency and metallic precision into a sound entirely their own. For more than three decades, the band have balanced aggression, technical power and anthemic songwriting with a sharp anti-authoritarian edge, becoming one of the genre’s most enduring names. With Dead Rebellion, the tenth album of their career, Strung Out continue to channel personal and political unrest into music that feels both timely and unflinching. On stage, that same mix of intensity, precision and conviction still makes them a formidable live band.
BELVEDERE (CA)
Formed in Calgary in 1995, Belvedere became one of Canadian skate-punk’s defining names through their blistering speed, razor-sharp musicianship and unmistakable melodic drive. What began as an unlikely project quickly evolved into a band revered across the punk underground for songs that combine technical finesse with hooks that never sacrifice energy or edge. Decades on, Belvedere remain rooted in the fast, furious spirit that first shaped them, delivering a sound that is both fiercely athletic and instantly recognisable. Their live shows continue to prove why they remain heroes of melodic punk done at full velocity.
