The Chisel (uk)
Straight from the same UK punk underground that birthed High Vis, who blew the roof off Grauzone 2025. The Chisel are one of the most urgent and unrelenting voices in today’s new wave of British punk. Their sound fuses the raw energy of UK82 street punk with hardcore grit and catchy pub-rock melodies, channeling influences like Blitz and Angelic Upstarts
With two albums to their name. Retaliation (2021) and What a Fucking Nightmare (2024). they’ve cemented their place as a live force that’s impossible to ignore. Both albums were recorded by Jonah Falco (Fucked Up), who also worked on High Vis’ material, bringing out the band’s explosive edge.
Released on the renowned labels La Vida Es Un Mus (Belgrado, Fatamorgana, and Rakta) and Pure Noise—The Chisel embody punk at its most vital and international.
Frontman Cal Graham is more than just a punk shouter: he also explores darker sounds through Nation Unrest (EBM) and the synth-pop act Natural Assembly adding layers of depth to his onstage ferocity.
Expect chaos, sweat, and no one left standing when The Chisel hit the stage!
