The Raging Nathans have been doing the punk-rock lifer thing long enough to prove that fast, snotty anthems about “tap water and boots for dinner” will never go out of style.
The band’s Dayton-bred sneer lands somewhere between basement show grit and road-warrior polish—think the raw energy of bands on Fat Wreck Chords. Tides bring a tuneful spin on hardcore that’s equal parts melodic and feral to the opening slot, while Miller Lowlifes, a Tampa crew that knows how to turn a concrete bowl into a circle pit, plays support.
