STATIC DRESS

Holder is a five piece post-hardcore/metalcore band based out of western Massachusetts, formed in 2024. Their sound consists of takeaways from early waves of screamo and emotional hardcore with bands such as This Day Forward, Joshua Fit For Battle, and Converge.

Soul Blind are a four-piece from the Hudson Valley, New York, dealing in what you might call "grungegaze" — a dreamy fuzz-pedal trudge somewhere on the continuum between grunge and shoegaze, citing Hum, Failure, Quicksand and Deftones as influences. Their sophomore album Red Sky Mourning is out now via Closed Casket Activities.

Static Dress are a proudly anti-algorithmic band. They don't churn out TikToks — they tell stories and build worlds, every detail seemingly pored over for hours. Injury Episode is a frantic 15-track album dragging the scrappy fury of early 2000s post-hardcore into 2026 — screamed vocals, crushing riffs and chaotic energy.
