This month, 1MU sits in on a stilt-walking Japanese busker, and a man literally eating his words…

Punk is for all the misfits of all ages. From kids on their parents’ shoulders to seasoned silver-haired punks in studded battle vests, The Adicts’ recent Fillmore show proved punk remains one of the gracious spaces where generations of outsiders still belong together.

Dog Party kicked off the night with infectious energy and heart, while Monster Squad sent the pit into full chaos before The Adicts transformed the venue into a full-blown punk circus. More than a concert, it felt like a celebration of community, weirdness, family, and legacy.

I always thought the people who “Bothchella” Coachella were out of their minds, but I can say with certainty 2026 is the first year I wish I WOULD have attended TWO weekends.

The Casualties, The Drowns, The Lowcocks, and Come Out Fighting at Sanctuary Detroit 5/14/2026.

Doll Fest 2026 doesn’t ease you in, it throws you straight into the deep end. From the energy and charisma of the preshow to a stacked weekend at Oakstop, Maria and crew once again prove they’ve got an uncanny knack for pulling together lineups that hit from every angle: melodic, confrontational, strange, and unforgettable. Whether it’s the emotional lift of Skip The Needle, the unfiltered fury of ICK, the sheer force of 18 Fevers, or the beautifully unhinged spectacle of El Colectivo Sabinas (poor Pete), every set feels like a discovery or a reckoning. By the time War on Women detonates what’s left of the room, you’re not just watching a festival — you’re being dragged through it, gladly.

How independent artists and underground scenes are fighting back against isolation, algorithms, and the suffocating grip of late-stage capitalism. Centered around Damag3’s emotionally explosive Philadelphia show, where punk can still exist as an ethos rather than just a sound. Rooted in DIY culture, trans visibility, physical media, human connection, and collective resistance. In a world designed to keep people disconnected and endlessly consuming, spaces like this become more than concerts; they become proof that community, art, and rebellion still matter.

Fishbone’s 2026 “In Your to Face” tour isn’t just a show, it’s an immersive experience that pulls fans straight into the orbit of one of the most enduring, electrifying bands to ever do it. From the family-like chaos of the VIP meet-and-greet and soundcheck to karaoke gambles backed by the band themselves, the night blurs the line between audience and performer before exploding into the set. Celebrating four decades of In Your to Face, Fishbone tears through their legacy with the same joy, and some complete with surprise appearances. Angelo Moore's energy turns every moment into something bigger than music.

1MU is back from Birmingham with the sound of noise ringing in his ears, and reviews of Prostitute, Traidora, Milkweed, and more…

Your girl on the rail sat down with Eric Blackbird to talk about the rise of Black Bird Records, after attending the debut of the label’s first album and a performance by Jackie Mendez.

Mr. Dinkles’ Mac musical upbringing spans church, folk, and rock; she’s carved out a voice that’s equal parts personal release and pointed commentary. For her, punk isn’t a genre; it’s shaped by honesty, community, and the willingness to say something that might cost you. At a time when so much energy gets lost online, her music pulls people back into the room: sweaty, loud, and fully present.

Dance Hall Crashers are in the middle of playing a limited run of shows, and our Kim Moenice was fortunate enough to catch one of their NYC gigs with their longtime touring companions, Hepcat.

Supersonic Festival returns to Birmingham in 2026 as a smaller, “limited edition” run—but it’s still as uncompromising as ever. The lineup leans hard into experimental territory, from ØXN’s dark, drone-laced folk to boundary-pushing acts like Milkweed, Thorn Wych, and noise-rock provocateurs Prostitute, alongside hardcore, throat-singing, and audiovisual oddities. Offstage, the fest keeps its DIY spirit alive with workshops, art, and offbeat side quests, proving that even scaled down, Supersonic remains one of the most forward-thinking and sonically adventurous festivals out there.

The festival has sold out, and aftermarket prices continue to propel sky-high, likely due to the Bieber Effect.

Fishbone storms back, celebrating the 40th anniversary of their groundbreaking debut In Your Face, proving once again why they remain one of the most electrifying and influential bands to ever hit a stage. With a two-set performance that pairs the iconic album in full with a career-spanning selection of fan favorites.

Rumors, gossip, and clickbait aside, Iggy Pop is very much healthy and heading to Coachella, Mosswood Meltdown, and Detroit with My Chemical Romance. Three shows. Choose wisely.
