Can you remember the worst date that you ever went on? Our new punk song, "Emergency Exit", is a story about a romantic date gone horribly wrong. It's a song that captures the anticipation of going out to dinner with someone you're excited about to only find out they had a second date lined up after yours all along.

Emergency Exit

Lyrics:
I got a sense you're driving me crazy
You stare at me
Don't talk to me
My frustration boils up inside me
You can't notice this oh why can't you see?

And no response yet back on the phone
Hard to get can't get you all alone
And now I really want you back
I see you set my trap

We think things are just 'cause we're forever kids
In times of strife
In social life
We gotta see all aspects of these things
To people we talk with and opinions we bring

And no response yet back on the phone
Hard to get can't get you all alone
And now I kinda want you back
I see you set my trap
Woo

And no response yet back on the phone
Hard to get can't get you all alone
And now I just don't want you back
Because you smell like crap

IN YOUR FACE

Set My Trap

I'm calling for a shake up
Can something please break up my hypnotized state
Although I sense what's best, I still fall for the bait
Boy I can tell you that I learned I don't belong in school
But I comply and fade away like a tarnished tool

A washed up party with a big fake smile
Gotta live that reputation and profile
Been stuck for years, I haven't found my space
So now I'm in your face

The system's way is stuck up
Their favoritism shuts you up
I move at a snail's pace
Oh I just love it when UPain gets in my face
Cut out my chances, so I learned I don't belong in school
But I comply and fade away like a tarnished tool

The fake, shallow convos drive me wild
It's not working the networking lifestyle
The egocentric use you like your waste
So now I'm in your face

Alright
The system's way is stuck up
Their favoritism shuts you up
I move at a snail's pace
Oh I just love it when UPain gets in my face
Cut out my chances, so I learned I don't belong in school
But I comply and fade away like a tarnished tool

A washed up party with a big fake smile
It's not working the networking lifestyle
Been stuck four years I haven't found my space
So now I'm in your face
Yeah now I'm in your face
So now I'm in your face
I'm in your face

Griffen Handshake is a secret handshake. But it’s also a trio of musicians, Millen Schuchert, Arjun Schuchert, and Gio Mori, who are proud members of the underground punk scene in their hometown, Pittsburgh, PA.

Their new EP, "Three Strikes and You're Out"  is their most ambitious work to date.  It features "Wings", an introspective track about feeling like you’re growing as an artist and person, but simultaneously feeling invisible to the world.  It includes the band's previous 2024 singles, "Kicking Rocks" and the dance-infused "Morgan". The EP is rounded out by the cold yet soothing, "Unclear" and the chaotic title track itself.

GH has played countless shows throughout their hometown and across the Mid-Atlantic region. They were featured on Pittsburgh’s renowned radio station, WDVE, with a live interview and performance of, “All My Friends Wanna Be Doctors” earlier in 2024. Their former major releases include their highly energetic EP, “IN YOUR FACE” in December 2022 and their debut, experimental album, “My Box” in April 2021.
