If you follow the British DIY punk scene, the name Bruise Control couldn’t have escaped you. This crew, who by their own description sit somewhere between 00s indie and 80s hardcore, has just delivered another blow to the scene. Their new self-titled EP is officially out and is absolutely worth a spin.

The band is well-known for their chaotic live shows and direct approach. Personally, I think this is a big deal and we’re definitely going to hear more about them. Expect razor-sharp indie punk loaded with catchy hooks.

Bruise Control confirms that even in 2026, music recorded in a DIY environment and driven by pure energy can easily compete with the major players. Whether you need the perfect soundtrack for a wild moshpit or just a trek through the city, this EP is a must-have.

The record is available in both digital and physical formats. Catch them now before they permanently trade small clubs for the main stages of major festivals!
