Watch the video for BEX’s explosive new single, Taste Better
Co-written with WARGASM’s Sam Matlock, BEX has shared a “fierce” new banger that “marks a moment where I accepted and understood my own power”.
WARGASM make history at the Kerrang! Awards 2022, walking away with the New Noise Award presented by Dr. Martens.
Last Thursday, the Kerrang! Awards tore through London in a blur of rock'n'roll debauchery.
Throughout the night we handed out three new awards: the Disruptor Award, the Grassroots Award and the New Noise Award presented by Dr. Martens, which shines a light on the new wave of incredible talent coming through the alt. scene right now.
Claiming the inaugural prize were nu-metal-revival-punks WARGASM, fending off Heriot, Pinkshift, Pupil Slicer and Static Dress.
Accepting their award from Surfbort vocalist Dani Miller, WARGASM's Sam Matlock and Milkie Way used their acceptance speech to spotlight some of their favourite new bands with female members, including fellow New Noise nominees Heriot, Cassyette and Spiritbox.
