District 105, one of Vietnam’s most promising hardcore bands, continues to push boundaries with their unique blend of metalcore and nu-metal. With their new EP, international performances, and growing fanbase, they’re carving their path on the global stage.
Run the Kaos brought chaos, catharsis, and pure energy to Saigon. From Cút Lộn’s fierce opening to Pale’s atmospheric close, it was a night of noise, emotion, and everything in between—a true testament to the underground spirit.
DIY isn’t just a sound—it’s a global movement built on community, resistance, and self-made culture. From basements to squats, punks worldwide forged spaces of unity and rebellion that still inspire today’s independent scenes to rise, adapt, and thrive.
Arrow Warehouse’s “Thay Pin” show proved the venue’s potential as a new cornerstone for Saigon’s heavy scene. With powerful sets from four live bands, the night delivered energy, connection, and a strong message: more venues mean more voices.
Không Sói, Không Sao proved that Vietnam’s heavy music scene doesn’t need headliners to hit hard. Six local bands, one packed venue, endless energy—rain or shine, the pit lives on.
Final Heaven launches their debut single “KRATOS,” a powerful blend of modern metalcore and emotion, marking both a bold beginning and a farewell to past chapters. Produced by rising talent Zain Muhammad.
Vietnam’s rising heavy act GAI荄 teams up with Mattéo Gelsomino (ex-Novelists) on a powerful new single that blends punishing intensity with melodic vulnerability.
Ethos Collective’s first official show on March 14 lit up Saigon’s heavy scene with explosive sets from Empathize, HappyCo, Under Pressure, and Hypertension. A powerful kickoff leading into Alpha Wolf’s April 10 show and Vietnam’s rising metal movement.
A short but powerful step forward. District 105 are no longer just one of Vietnam’s heaviest acts—they’re becoming one of its most forward-thinking.
Blending the chaos of Every Time I Die and Dillinger Escape Plan, Highly Irresponsible is an explosive mix of panic chords, crushing breakdowns, and raw emotion. Greg Puciato’s feral vocals and Jordan Buckley’s razor-sharp riffs make this an essential modern hardcore record.
