Tripwire

Freshly formed and very promising, Tripwire, hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, sounds (and screams) reminiscent of early 2000’s post-hardcore, with the hip tendencies of modern nu-gaze. The band’s first musical offering, their self-titled 2025 demo EP, showcases impressive refinement and versatility. Songs like “Cold Cup” boast soaring cleans and catchy choruses, while other tracks such as “LL3000” flex the band’s repertoire of downbeat, chugging riffs, and sawtooth screams.
