Dave The Punk

2020 to 2025

Toxic Twenties: from the 2020s

The current decade, fuelled by global unrest, digital DIY culture, and a hunger for authenticity, the scene fractured into new shapes: hardcore got heavier, pop-punk went viral, and underground voices rose with renewed urgency. From basement gigs to livestreams, this decade’s sound is raw, restless, and defiantly alive.
