Veering between chaos and clarity where sweetness clashes with distortion, south-London sibling-duo PUNCHBAG deliver blistering, unfiltered pop-punk that hits fast, loud and straight to the gut. Cusping the end of 2025 with their debut EP, ‘I’m Not Your Punchbag’, a sub-15-minute rush which quickly drew tastemaker attention from NME (Radar), Dork (HYPE cover, ★★★★), DIY (★★★★), CLASH (Next Wave), Wonderland, and praise from PAPER, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, Popjustice and more. Named a Spotify RADAR: First Listen artist, the band have sold-out multiple London headline shows and hit major festival stages including Reeperbahn, Iceland Airwaves, The Great Escape and Live At Leeds, alongside a live performance on Made In Chelsea. Offering further proof of their status as one of London's most compelling emerging pop acts, PUNCHBAG’s new EP 'I Am Obsessed' is a volatile, hyper-saturated expansion of their self-described "aggressive hopecore" world - where everyday life is pushed to breaking point.
