Black Ends

Seattle, WA

Self-proclaimed gunk-pop group Black Ends deal in ‘90s grunge filtered through 2025’s absurdities. Their debut album Psychotic Spew is all Mellon Collie with a little bit of sadness, layering sugar-sweet melodies over scuzzy-fuzzy punk riffs led by the laconic vocals of Nicolle Swims. This curatorial pick is a sonic shot-in-the-arm that reminds you how vital Seattle will always be.
