Death from Above 1979 @ SummerStage
New York, USA
July 2, 2025

Death from Above 1979 tore through SummerStage with pure, unfiltered energy. The Toronto duo delivered a thunderous set packed with fuzzed-out bass, pounding drums, and raw vocals that had the crowd thrashing from the first note. From classics like “Romantic Rights” to newer bangers, the band was tight, loud, and relentless. A sweaty, electric night in the park—punk rock perfection under the New York sky.

Posted by Christopher D • September 17, 2026

Social Distortion, Descendents, The Chats History (Toronto) – September 14, 2026 The crowd at History showed just how much punk’s demographic has shifted over the years. The room was clearly split: veterans who grew up on Social Distortion and Descendents stood shoulder-to-shoulder with younger kids who got into the genre through The Chats—a weird contrast against History’s polished, venue-security-heavy atmosphere. … Read more
