The Restarts are a UK based, 3-piece punk band! Formed 1995 in East London. We play thrash punk, infused with elements of ska. The Restarts have been hammering their way through the squats of Europe and venues across North America for three decades, earning themselves a global following of punk enthusiasts of all ages. They lend amplification to unheard voices, fighting for social causes and keeping the DIY spirit of punk rock alive and well. True to their political beliefs and fiercely independent they have self-financed all their own tours worldwide including South America, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Scandinavia, Canada, USA and extensively around Europe. They have 6 studio albums under their belt which are currently being repressed by Pirates Press Records (San Francisco).

Random Killing is a Toronto-, Montreal-, and Oshawa-based Canadian punk rock band formed in 1984. The band originated as a group of childhood friends who began playing cover versions of their favourite punk rock songs for recreation. This developed into regular rehearsals, original songwriting, and live performances. The band recorded its debut release, Take Our Flag (1985), a 7-inch EP, and produced a music video for the title track. The video aired on Rogers Cable, Citytv News, and MuchMusic, and won a cash prize at Trinity Square Video.

Following their debut, Random Killing released a series of records and CDs, including This Whole World (1989), Kicked in the Nuts (1990), Welcome (1992), Reissued (1993), Thoughts of Aggression (1994), Urine the 90s Now (1996), and Stranded (1997). The band also released numerous limited-run cassettes, demos, and enhanced CD-ROMs, some of which were available exclusively at live performances. Their 12-inch record Bring Out Your Dead was released in February 2023 by Cursed Blessings Records. In 1995, Random Killing re-recorded their song “12,” a punk rock parody of the counting song from Sesame Street, at CBC Studios in Toronto. The recording was released as a series of four animated videos (numbers 2, 3, 4, and 12), which aired internationally on Sesame Street for more than a decade. During the same sessions, the band also recorded an instrumental version of “Johnny Was a Punk,” which was later adapted into a video for the letter “J.”

Balm Squad hit the ground running in 2022, intending to blend elements of post-punk and street punk. Now, with two EPs and multiple national and overseas tours under their belts, they are looking forward to releasing their first full-length LP “Call of The Void” in spring 2027 on Joe Pogo and Pils Records.
