Dry Socket is a politically charged hardcore band from Portland, Oregon. With high-intensity performances and emotional songwriting, they blend classic hardcore aggression with deeply personal narratives. Their sound channels the urgency of acts like PunchPaint it Black and Negative Approach, while carving out a distinctly modern and inclusive space within the genre.

Since forming Dry Socket has toured across the US, Europe and Mexico, sharing stages with bands such as Gorilla Biscuits, The Hope Conspiracy and Torso. Known for their visceral live shows, they create a space to be unapologetically angry.
