Merchandise

Merchandise is an American band from Tampa, Florida, known for blending post-punk, noise rock, and dream pop into a sound that’s uniquely their own. Originally emerging from the hardcore punk scene in the late 2000s, the band started making waves with their experimental take on alternative rock, gaining attention for records like (Strange Songs) In The Dark and Children of Desire. Their 2014 album After the End marked a shift toward a more polished, pop-influenced sound, earning them broader recognition.

At the core of Merchandise's appeal is their ability to evolve while maintaining an emotional depth and a DIY ethos. Frontman Carson Cox’s distinct voice and introspective lyrics, paired with the band’s lush yet gritty production, set them apart from the crowd. Over the years, they’ve continued to push boundaries, from the dark, cinematic sounds of A Corpse Wired for Sound to the sprawling, genre-bending compositions found in releases like Totale Nite and Red Sun.
