A hardcore punk gig can often feel like day four of a brutal heatwave. With agitated guys in shorts pacing while waiting for bands to start, the sweaty and enclosed space adds to the hot and humid tension. It basically feels like nobody in the room has had a decent sleep for a couple of nights.

So it kind of makes sense that influential hardcore band Trapped Under Ice have called their first album in six years, Heatwave.

The Baltimore band, whose members play in Turnstile and Angel Du$t, don't mess around as they clock in 11 songs in 14 minutes. Stream them all below.

Released on Pop Wig, a label that is co-operated by the band's Justice Tripp and Brendan Yates, the album mixes up more of a punk and fun rock n roll style, but Heatwave is still very much a Trapped Under Ice record and tracks like "No Relief" and "Slow Death" boil with their signature snarl and moshy aggression.

The band are also set to take to the road for a number of shows including an appearance at Toronto's Not Dead Yet festival. It's good to see Trapped Under Ice back with new songs and new shows.

'Heatwave' is available July 21 through Pop Wig.
