Amyl and The Sniffers: Punk’s Unstoppable Force in 2025

If there’s one band defining the sound of modern punk in 2025, it’s Amyl and The Sniffers. Known for their blistering energy, fearless attitude, and unrelenting commitment to punk rock authenticity, the Melbourne-based band continues to shake up the global music scene. With the release of their third studio album Cartoon Darkness and a massive North American headlining tour underway, they’re proving once again why they’re a force to be reckoned with.

From Humble Beginnings to Global Impact

Formed in 2016 in Melbourne, Amyl and The Sniffers rose quickly from playing gritty pub gigs to commanding international stages. Their 2019 self-titled debut album introduced the world to their no-compromise sound—sharp, fast, and unapologetically raw. By 2021, Comfort to Me solidified their standing in the punk rock arena, featuring breakout tracks like Hertz, Guided by Angels, and Security. Each song delivered an intoxicating mix of political defiance, unfiltered emotion, and breakneck musicality.

Frontwoman Amy Taylor, with her electric stage presence and fearless vocals, has become a standout figure in punk’s modern evolution. Her ability to channel chaos into something captivating has helped turn the band’s live shows into unforgettable experiences.

What’s in Store for 2025?

With the release of Cartoon Darkness via B2B Records / Virgin Music Group, Amyl and The Sniffers are entering their most ambitious era yet. While the album stays true to their punk roots, it pushes their sound further, exploring heavier themes and sharper production. Early reactions suggest it could be a strong contender for album of the year.

To support the release, the band is embarking on a major North American headlining tour, hitting iconic venues across the U.S. and Canada. Their reputation for explosive performances ensures each stop will be a night to remember.
