5 Punk Rock Bands To Feed Your Angst

In This Article:

Whether you're in the mood to punch a hole in the drywall (again) or impulsively cut your bangs while screaming in the mirror, these bands have got you covered. Their music is perfect for headbanging, moshing or just speeding down the highway.

1. The Frights

"You Are Going To Hate This" is The Frights second most popular song with over 4.5 million streams on Spotify.

Don't let their name scare you off. This American surf punk band from Poway, CA is the perfect choice for when you're in the mood to be reckless or just jam out to some beachy punk rock music. The Frights are currently on a tour that ends May 24th in Santa Cruz, CA.

2. FIDLAR

"No Waves" is FIDLAR's most popular song with over 14 million streams on Spotify.

YouTube

No angsty playlist is complete without "F*ck It Dog, Life's A Risk", or more commonly known by punk heads as FIDLAR. Their new album, "Almost Free," features bangers like "By Myself" and "Can't You See," both of which have gained popularity with over 2.5 million streams since the album's release two months ago.

3. Fuzz

Just by looking at the album cover art of "Fuzz," you can already tell this band has a great collection of rock-n-roll psychedelic music in store.

YouTube

This headbanging new California American band features a style of hard rock riffs and unique vocals that set them apart from most rock bands. Their sound resembles the '60s psychedelic and metal tunes established by Jimi Hendrix and the Groundhogs.

4. Arctic Monkeys before 2013

"Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" became the fastest selling debut album in English music history, and it contains some of the best songs to rock out to.

YouTube

If you go deep enough into the ever-changing waters of this English rock band, you'll find that the Arctic Monkeys used to have a much more punk style in their music than the sound demonstrated in albums "Tranquility Base Hotel" and "Casino" (2018) and "AM" (2013). Songs like "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor," "Fluorescent Adolescent" and "When The Sun Goes Down" all feature a hard rock vibe.

5. The Garden

YouTube

This cool, experimental punk rock band is composed of Wyatt and Fletcher Shears, two brothers who established The Garden in 2011. Their live performances are often unpredictable and entertaining as they implement off the top tricks during their shows. Songs "California Here We Go" and "Egg" are the two most popular created by The Garden and deserve a listen.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
