Summer Break 26

Summer Break 26 is put together by the bands playing it, built around the idea of starting something rather than waiting for the right moment to.

Phiếu Ngủ: A two-bass project formed out of a reunion between the South and North scenes, working on new material built around low-end weight.

Hanging Judy: A five-piece Vietnamese metalcore band drawing on modern metalcore and hardcore, known for energetic original sets.

rendezvous.: Started as a solo studio project from Phuc (noisy_gate) exploring djent and post-hardcore-leaning metalcore. The band came together with Tin Phan (tedsphan), Nhat Nguyen (robjn) and Nam Duy on vocals. For this show, Tri Toan (treetwan) is on bass, and Khoa Vang is on drums. Their sound moves between low-tuned chugs and melodic, hook-driven choruses, with reference points around Periphery, ERRA, and Polaris.

Thryv: A five-piece modern metal and metalcore band from HCMC, moving between atmospheric layers and direct aggression.
