Brooklyn hardcore outfit Cash Bribe are back with a vengeance, unveiling their third EP Demonomics on June 13, 2025, via Futureless. This marks the band’s debut release with the label, and they’ve never sounded more vicious, precise, or relentless.
The EP’s title track, “Demonomics,” is now streaming everywhere—an absolute sonic assault that sets the tone for what’s to come.

Following their 2023 EP Escape From New York (Fanxdangxo Records), Demonomics marks a major leap in Cash Bribe’s sound. With Zach Miller (ex-Gel) at the helm of production at Landmine Studios—home to hardcore legends like Year of the Knife and 25 Ta Life—this EP hits with unrelenting power and precision.
This time, the band expands their sonic palette. Tracks like the title cut and “Faith Aversion” ramp up the intensity with heavier, more metallic riffs, exploring darker and more aggressive territories. Meanwhile, “Bay of Pigs” slams with a filthy, low-tuned swagger that recalls the raw energy of mid-era Black Flag and the chaotic force of Cursed and Blacklisted.
Lyrically, Demonomics takes aim at the suffocating grip of the billionaire class and the systemic forces that keep the masses in line. The result is a visceral, unapologetic critique set against the band’s hardest-hitting material to date.
Formed in Brooklyn in 2019, Cash Bribe first turned heads with their debut EP Facemask City in 2022. Their 2023 follow-up Escape From New York was self-released to widespread acclaim, earning a Bandcamp New and Notable feature and premieres from Metal Injection and Decibel Magazine.
With Demonomics, Cash Bribe are taking their sound to new extremes. Brace yourselves.
