Quicksand and Chastity

Chastity is the musical project of Brandon Williams from Whitby, Ontario, Canada. His genre-bending sound blends post-hardcore, noise rock, alt-rock, emo, grungegaze, and melodic hardcore. He released a trilogy of albums: "Death Lust" (2018), "Home Made Satan" (2019), and "Suffer Summer" (2022). A self-titled LP followed in September 2024. Chastity is currently touring.

Quicksand, a band known for their powerful, thoughtful post-hardcore sound, released Distant Populations as a timely follow-up to Interiors. Featuring 11 punchy, concise tracks, it expanded on their established style and was critically lauded for its emotional resonance and gripping lyricism. Founded in New York and recognized for albums like Manic Compression, they've been acclaimed for their ability to evolve and impact the genre.
