"Houston hardcore band Mexican Cokestirred up buzz in the hardcore scene after building up a reputation for wearing bank robber ski masks and waving a shotgun around on stage at their shows, and now they’ve signed to Convulse Records (MSPAINT, Gel, Militarie Gun) for a new self-titled EP." - Brooklyn Vegan
There’s little available information about Techie Blood, the new hardcore band that features members of Stressors and Cudgel, other than its 2 abrasive mixtapes. The short recordings were uploaded to a mysterious YouTube channel called Guy Fieri Official, and the bandcamp page labeled ledzeppelinofficial. Techie Blood’s music is punchy, fast, and violent, with distorted, steely instrumentation that culminates in a barrage of noise. Though their first demo sounds mechanized and industrial, it ends with a washed-out, distorted beat that strangely evokes R&B. Techie Blood’s extreme name and aesthetic resonates with the anti-gentrification current in the Bay Area’s rock scene, with many bands reacting to the region’s skyrocketing cost of living with aggressive, angry music that departs from the garage-pop of years past.
A hardcore punk band based in San Francisco’s Tenderloin neighborhood. We’ve played an array of different shows since 2021, ranging from toxic beaches to bart trains to venues who sometimes feed us.
