Year0001, the cutting-edge label known for pushing boundaries in alternative music and home to acts like Viagra Boys, have recently signed the band Rifle and released their EP.
Rifle deliver a raw blend of U.K. proto-punk and brutal U.S. hardcore influences, making for an intense, high-energy sound that resonates with the true spirit of punk rock. Their latest work showcases gut-punching riffs and visceral performances that feel both authentic and unrelenting.
The EP has drawn attention for its fusion of gritty speed-thrash elements with a hard rock attitude. Year0001, a label that thrives on championing innovative and genre-defying acts, is a fitting home for Rifle, aligning with their reputation for fostering bold and provocative music.
If you’re a fan of unfiltered punk energy with a hardcore edge, Rifle’s EP is a must-listen. Stream their EP, Pack Mentality below.
