Griswald
Mountain Top, Pa.
Sounds like: Hardcore — influenced by ‘00s hardcore bands like Have Heart.
Fun fact: Their guitarist jumped and accidentally punched a light fixture so hard during a set once that it started to visibly dump all of the dust it collected onto the other members mid song.

Survivor’s Guilt
Long Island, N.Y.
Sounds like: Aggressive and weighty post-hardcore with a pinch of atmospheric noodling and lyrics that demand to be heard.
Fun fact: Survivor’s Guilt vocalist Tim is a huge soccer holligan. He bleeds Bayern Munich.

Variants
New Orleans, La.
Sounds like: Melodic-Rock infused with pop-punk riffs. For those that like A Loss For Words, The Story So Far, and No Bragging Rights.
Fun fact: The members in Variants have never washed their van in the year and half they have owned it. They are all CERTIFIED Ihop athletes.
