Radon

**Radon** is a longtime staple of Portland, Oregon’s DIY punk scene, cranking out raw, high-energy tunes since the mid-’90s. Known for their stripped-down blend of punk rock, garage grit, and hardcore urgency, the band has stayed true to their roots with a relentless output of splits, EPs, and full-lengths—including recent rippers like *More of Their Lies* (2022) and splits with Shallow Cuts and Worthwhile Way. Their 2018 album *28* and the cheekily titled *Metric Buttloads of Rock!* showcase their knack for short, sharp bursts of sarcastic humor and working-class angst. Despite lineup shifts over the years, Radon remains a no-frills, beer-soaked institution, celebrated for keeping the Pacific Northwest’s punk flame alive with zero pretense and maximum riffage.
