Ben Quad

I'm Scared That's All There Is - 2026 Repress

Wax Bodega

Ben Quad is a tightly-wound emo outfit with just the right balance of delicate vulnerability, careening guitar-driven energy, and melodic ingenuity. Despite tongue-in-cheek proclamations of being “emo butt-rock,” the Oklahoma City-based quartet take their songcraft seriously, and the result is a vibrant chemical blend of winning sensitivity, a charming dash of goofiness, and propulsively hooky, cleverly-written gems. With the release of their debut full length, 'I’m Scared That’s All There Is', the band established themselves as a band to watch. Brooklyn Vegan has raved “mix of sincerity, hooks, and adrenaline is always a winning formula when it’s done well, and Ben Quad do it very, very well.”

Hot Mulligan

You’ll Be Fine - 2026 Repress

Wax Bodega

Hot Mulligan is a ride-or-die testament to staying true to yourself. When the emo band formed in 2014 and cut their teeth playing house shows and naming songs by closing their eyes and typing into auto-correct on their phones, no one expected they’d be selling out thousand-cap venues, one of their scene’s most respected bands a decade later.

Cover of Why Would I Watch - 2026 Repress by Hot Mulligan.

Hot Mulligan

Why Would I Watch - 2026 Repress

Wax Bodega

When Hot Mulligan took to social media to declare themselves #1 Hot New Band, it would have been easy to write off the terminally online emo quartet’s proclamation as yet another irreverent entry into their bag of tricks.

But it turns out Hot Mulligan have a way of manifesting things into existence, whether it’s name-dropping Michelle Branch and Mark Hoppus in song titles and netting responses from both (only one got the joke) or, true to their word, becoming synonymous with the newest waves of pop-punk and emo – err, post-emo, the genre Hot Mully have claimed responsibility for inventing. (Go ahead and fact-check it; they’ll wait.)

Since forming in Lansing, Michigan, in 2014, the college friends – vocalist Tades Sanville, guitarists Chris Freeman and Ryan Malicsi and drummer Brandon Blakeley – have ascended from basements to buzz band on the back of two beloved albums, 2018’s 'Pilot' and 2020’s 'You’ll Be Fine'. Now the band’s third LP, 'Why Would I Watch', cements their evolution as one the most versatile and profoundly moving bands in the underground.

Arm's Length

Never Before Seen, Never Again Found - 2026 Repress

Wax Bodega

Emo three-piece Arm’s Length was formed in early 2019 in the small Canadian town of Belleville, Ontario when best friends Allen Steinberg and Jeremy Whyte finally began writing music together after years of knowing each other. Meeting at a Halloween party in 2015, it seemed like fate that two open-tuning slinging guitar players would ever cross paths in their tiny suburban town. Setting out to create a great new indie infused emo sound with shades of pop-punk, Arm’s Length has made huge waves in this scene with the releases of their first two EPs, 'What’s Mine Is Yours' and 'Everything Nice'. 'Never Before Seen, Never Found Again' was released in fall 2022 and quickly became a fan fave.

Cover of Moments Before The Wind by Free Throw.

Free Throw

Moments Before The Wind

Wax Bodega

Since forming in 2012, FREE THROW’s story has been simple: keep going. New records, longer tours, bigger rooms—it’s always been another step upward for the Nashville-based quintet, whose 2014 debut, 'Those Days Are Gone', has become an era-defining classic in the emo-punk genre. The record launched them onto global tours with Hot Mulligan and New Found Glory, as well as slots at Slam Dunk, Riot Fest, and The Fest.

Every milestone has pushed them ahead, but on their sixth LP, 'Moments Before The Wind' (Wax Bodega), that constant charge gradually slows—suspendred mid-step, mid-thought, mid-life. Recorded with longtime producer Brett Romnes on either end of the sold-out 'Those Days Are Gone' 10-year tour, the follow-up to 2023’s 'Lessons That We Swear To Keep' chronicles a surrealist descent into liminality: a period of intense personal upheaval colored by loss, renewal, reflection, and, ultimately, life-altering joy through the impending birth of a child.

The 11-song set is disarmingly real, coloured by sonic spontaneity—a swirl of Midwest emo, sweat-soaked punk fervor, and crashing alternative rock—but also the sort of achingly vulnerable lyricism fans and critics have come to expect from the band.

Cover of Those Days Are Gone by Free Throw.

Free Throw

Those Days Are Gone

Wax Bodega

After four albums and a decade of hard work, including countless performances worldwide, the members — Cory Castro, Lawrence Warner, Justin Castro, Jake Hughes, and Kevin Garcia — have a fresh perspective on life. The band is through obsessing over what comes next and romanticizing the moments that have already passed. Instead, Free Throw is making music about the present and how seeking balance in our lives is far more meaningful work than the endless pursuit of whatever you deem to be 'enough.'

Those Days Are Gone was the band’s debut, and still most popular, album. Out of press for years, the title is now back in steady rotation.

1. Such Luck
2. Two Beers In

The Sound A Body Makes When It's Still

Wax Bodega

Hot Mulligan is a ride-or-die testament to staying true to yourself. When the emo band formed in 2014 and cut their teeth playing house shows and naming songs by closing their eyes and typing into auto-correct on their phones, no one expected they'd be selling out thousand-cap venues, one of their scene's most respected bands a decade later. But as Hot Mully releases their phenomenal fourth LP, 'The Sound a Body Makes When It's Still', that's exactly where they're at. Hot Mulligan is a resounding success story, the #1 Hot New Band (11 years running, just ask them), and ready to keep fighting the good fight.

A sense of fear lives and breathes throughout the album, in blistering choruses alongside the most vulnerable moments Hot Mulligan has ever laid to tape. That being said, this is still a Hot Mulligan record, and that means it rocks. Through it all, Hot Mulligan and longtime producer Brett Romnes laid down a masterclass. 'The Sound a Body Makes When It's Still' grabs your attention with all its fight-or-flight hooks, but it's the little nuances and connective tissue that make it Hot Mulligan's most cohesive album yet.
