Release date: 27. February 2026

Bruise Control are a loud, four-piece punk band from Manchester who have made a name for themselves in the UK DIY scene. With their unrestrained energy, they blend the raw aggression of ’80s hardcore with catchy, sharp-edged indie riffs reminiscent of the early 2000s.
Their new EP, co-produced by guitarist Niall Griffin, perfectly captures this chaotic, high-energy feeling — packed with sing-along choruses, gritty vocals, and abrasive music that somehow still manages to sound melodic.

Punkinfocus had this to say about the single “Gone To Ground”: “Raw, urgent and emotionally honest — a great example of how they balance heaviness and melody.”
