Bruise Control - Bruise Control *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 13th February 2026
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.

Bruise Control are a loud-mouth four-piece punk outfit from Manchester who’ve become a serious force in the UK DIY scene. They’ve been carving their name with a ferocious energy, mixing the raw aggression of ’80s hardcore with hooky, jagged indie riffs pulled straight out of the early ’00s. Their new EP and extended physical release, which they co-produced (by their guitarist Niall Griffin), really captures that chaotic, live-wire feel — think shout-along choruses, gritty vocals, and a jagged musical edge that somehow still feels melodic.
