Listen to the Punkfest 2026 Compilation
An ear-blasting preview of what to expect in Te Whanganui-a-Tara this October, Punkfest 2026 is a massively jam-packed new compilation repping nearly every act playing at the aforementioned fest this year. Limbless Music coordinated the crucial scene snapshot, proving without a doubt Aotearoa's noisy underground is in rude health — many groups contributing multiple tunes to the 25 track overload of teeth-gnashing, fist-pumping, raw-riffing local hardcore punk and unchained sonic extremity. Crank Punkfest 2026 on the office stereo and grip the full lineup details for the annual tradition's landmark 30th anniversary below, spanning two days and brought to you by Razored Raw...
