News

Boundary-pushing melanated punk band Oxymorrons are thrilled to announce their highly anticipated album, Melanin Punk, will release October 20th via Mascot Records.
"Look Alive (Netic)" follows the success of the album's previous singles, "Enemy" and "Last Call," which have garnered widespread acclaim and solidified Oxymorrons' place as one of the most exciting and radical acts in music. Each release from Melanin Punk showcases the band's exploration of new sonic territories while staying true to their rebellious spirit and unapologetic authenticity.
The band's upcoming album derives its name from the concept of melanin as a unifying force transcending mere skin tone. Oxymorrons define melanin punk as an emblem of culture, a rebellious ethos, and a celebration of the shared human experience. The band sees themselves as representatives of the people, embracing the diversity that exists within humanity and using their music as a catalyst for unity. They share, “It's about community, not division. Oxymorrons is for us, but the project represents the people and what brings us together. Our whole human existence is about connection. It's everyone in the band's uniqueness that makes us the crazy melting of sound and that's a great analogy to how we feel about the world as a whole.”
Oxymorrons describe their Melanin Punk album as “a cinematic experience” and “the most unique mixed baby you have ever seen” that builds upon the foundation laid by their EP, Mohawks and Durags. While the EP introduced listeners to an array of energies and vibes, the album takes fans on an immersive journey within each individual song. Melanin Punk symbolizes the culmination of the band members' diverse backgrounds, eccentricities, and flawless imperfections, resulting in an extraordinary artistic creation.
Fans should keep their ears to the ground for more music, merch drops, tour dates, and exciting partnerships to come. They can keep up with the band via their website: https://www.oxymorrons.com
