Only God Forgives (Toronto): https://onlygodforgivesto.bandcamp.com/

Impishly groovy quartet Only God Forgives makes scrappy rock and roll to squirm and squeal to. Above the herk and jerk of its rhythm section, the band’s gang vocals and duelling melodies from guitar and synth fall somewhere between the snarl of no wave and the effervescent sheen of pop. It’s an addictive mix worth risking it all for on the dance floor.

One of Exclaim's Class of 2024, Dermabrasion are a two-piece band playing a "formidable concoction of post-punk, industrial and metal influences... brooding gothic anthems that rumble with discontent... culminating in a sound they’ve coined as death rock and roll," according to music blog Get in Her Ears.
