◇ Rumple Stilskinz & The Dumpster Full O' Sound - The Lehigh Valley trash rock band is back together. It's been nearly a decade since we've had them on one of our stages, so let's get scuzzy again. Watch their 2014 Shards Session here.
◇ Side Over - A melodic hardcore powerhouse that began in 1989 in NEPA and quickly became a mid-Atlantic staple, playing with bands like Life of Agony until disbanding in 1994. After over 30 years, they reunited in 2025 following the sudden death of band co-founder Neil Husvar, and released the new album Loves You. Featuring former Tape Swap guest Lou Rogai of Lewis & Clarke.
◇ L.M.I. - Lansdale dark hardcore / stoner punk. One of the bands on the periphery of the Lehigh Valley that had been on our list to bring here for awhile. Now is the time. Their new EP, 2026’s L.M.I. V, incorporates brutal sludge metal influences into their hardcore punk sound.
