Apocalypse punks Iceage have a new video and song out titled “Ecstasy.” I dunno about you, but it looks like these guys hang out with a pretty well-adjusted group of folks. The band’s sophomore LP, You’re Nothing, will be out via Matador next month. Hear another track from

Golden Teacher brings the worlds of post-punk, dance, and psychedelia together on the track “Dante and Pilgrim.” A lot like that Factory Floor track that I loved recently, there are plenty of throbbing synths to keep the groove sharp as the vocals head into much stranger territory.

Factory Floor “Fall Back” (Official Video) from DFA Records on Vimeo. Factory Floor is back with a new dance single that should do really well by the twisted standards of the band’s post-punk fanbase. The group pulls together an extremely dancefloor-worthy jam that lasts 8 minutes with nothing more

Pissed Jeans bring a brand new track from their forthcoming album in February, Honeys. It’ll be the band’s third album, and it’s dropping via Sub Pop. Listen to or download the mosh-friendly “Bathroom Laughter” above.

Over a familiar chord progression and drum beat, Hardly Art’s Grave Babies brings a playfully dark post-punk tune with “Over and Under Ground.” Look for the band’s second full-length LP, Crusher, in February.

Some loose, dissonant post-punk from Silver Arm on the track “Man the Falcons,” which hits the ears with a pretty wild groove right from the get-go. Clearly noise and psych rock are influences in addition to danceable punk grooves, and the performance the band gives in the track ain’t
