Splinters.

**Splinters** is a ferocious hardcore punk band hailing from the UK, known for delivering blistering, no-frills aggression packed into bite-sized tracks. Bursting onto the scene with a sound that nods to early hardcore and powerviolence, they’ve carved out a reputation for raw, cathartic energy. Their 2023 EP *Blind Eyes*—featuring face-melters like “Deathwish” and “ROT”—showcases their knack for pairing breakneck riffs with lyrics that rage against societal decay and personal turmoil, all wrapped in under-a-minute explosions.

Live, Splinters are chaos incarnate, sharing stages with bands like The Flex and Big Cheese while winning over fans with their unrelenting intensity. Signed to Venn Records, they’ve become a staple for fans of UK hardcore’s grittiest corners, keeping their DIY ethos front and center. Tracks like “Grief” and “Dirt” prove they’re not here to reinvent the wheel
