Bio

Nothing other than nostalgia and subversive influence guiding them, metallic posthardcore outfit Wounded Touch have carved a path of resistance and loudness through the Midwest and east coast metalcore and screamo scenes since lockdown was lifted. Their debut LP took them from Furnace Fest and SXSW to Canada and the United Kingdom, a reputation of blistering distortion and feedback following them. The band often writes and plays in response to their lives’ proximity to death, misery, or significant, violent change. If the past few years have been any indicator of such a trend, then the band will likely not be smoldering into ash any time soon, taking any opportunity they can to flip the script on their respective genre and corrupt it into something new.
