Matty Frank Bandcamp / Instagram Self-taught in almost all of his musical and engineering skills, multi instrumentalist and vocalist Matty Frank combines pop and r&b vocal runs with introspective indie folk rock sound palettes inspired by the genre’s saddest of lesbians. With lyricism at once infinitesimally specific and boundlessly universal, Matty Frank shows that queer people have more to talk about than same sex attraction.

US Christmas with Doomsday Profit and Dead Halos
US Christmas Instagram / Bandcamp As USX enters their third decade as a band, they continue to push their sound into challenging new territory, blending wall- of-sound torrents of guitar, melancholic Appalachian dirge, and experimental electronic textures into a seamless and intense whole. Doomsday Profit Website / Instagram / Bandcamp Durham, N.C. sludge metal band Doomsday Profit have built upon their foundations of gritty, groovy, and psych-splattered sludge with their forthcoming self-titled album, out Sept. 19, 2025. Across the album’s nine songs, the band has embedded an even wider array of influences into their acerbic, dystopian sludge. Particles of monolithic doom, grisly death ‘n’ roll grooves, driving punk rock and scathing black metal all flash in the band’s raw recordings. As ever, Doomsday Profit has a finger pointed squarely at the powers that be, but they’ve also learned to turn their ire inward, and balance their vitriol with melancholic nuance. This broader approach has turned their already dynamic performances into a must-see, with a live resume that includes Hopscotch Music Festival and Seismic Summer, as well as supporting slots with established acts like Thou, The Obsessed, Black Tusk, REZN, and Restless Spirit.

The brainchild of a bedroom-pop artist & an ex-scene kid, ColorMeKrazy! is a collective of musicians/maniacs hailing from Raleigh, North Carolina. In 2023, the band was formed with the intention to meld the saccharine aesthetic & sensibilities of modern hyperpop artists (Brakence, 100 Gecs, Charlie XCX) with the powerful, dark, scream-crying-in-the-rain-angst of yesteryear’s emo titans (My Chemical Romance, Senses Fail, Taking Back Sunday) into it’s own unique flavor of electronic pop-punk music.
