H2G is an alternative punk rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 2018 they released their debut album “COMP” which gave the band a wave of local acclaim centered around their energetic live performances. The band vigorously toured between then and the 2020 pandemic, performing primarily with a DIY embodied approach. Their latest album “Tom” was released in April of 2022 through Memory Music (a label created by producer Will Yip in partnership with Run For Cover Records).

Heater is a pure return to form. Following the sonic explorations of the well-received 2022 LP AT SOME POINT YOU STOP, Phony emerges from that record’s greif with a renewed sense of urgent energy. Phony mastermind Neil Berthier’s sense of raw emotion moves flawlessly into every track, creating a punk rock sound that is unique, yet timeless and familiar. The intimacy of the sound blends with lyrics encapsulating themes of mortality, overcoming the monotony of modern life, and ultimately finding out who you are. There have been records like this before, but none with as many undeniable hooks and unforgettable lines as Heater.

Chicago/Minneapolis band Furbie seeks pure angst with zero consequences through sweet harmonies and heavy fuzz that “you could almost call sludgy if it weren’t so damn pretty” (Post-Trash). Featuring Mercedes Webb, Annie Burns, Liam Burns, and Sean Hallock.
