With this summer’s stacked Good Good Tour, Santa Cruz party-starters DRAIN want you to embrace the past, present, and future of hardcore. Spilling across North America, Drain are offering a hand-picked window into hardcore’s current genre-reshaping paradigm shift — through bands such as Scowl and Baltimore’s uncompromisingly brilliant End It — and also its febrile history, with modern greats Terror and Angel Du$t, led by Trapped Under Ice vocalist Justice Tripp, and many more. We’re highlighting this historic moment for the genre, showcasing some of the tour’s headliners on a group cover, and accompanying interview. Also in AP’s 2024 Summer Issue, find features on the Linda Lindas, Death Lens, Sick New World, and more.
