Various Artists Break the Glass, Burn the Cage (Sound Of Indie Punk)

Our sister label Pavilion are proud to announce a new compilation Break the Glass, Burn the Cage (The Sound of Indie Punk Rock). This compilation celebrates all that is Indie and Punk. Immerse yourself in cramped and sweaty grassroots venues with these bands’ electrifying guitar riffs, infectious basslines and voices that require being heard. Featuring standout tracks from Lime Garden, SPRINTS, Lambrini Girls, Sunflower Bean, English Teacher, Dream Wife, Panic Shack, Big Joanie and more, this compilation channels the raw energy and rebellious spirit that can only be acquired through caring deeply about the injustices and hatred seen in this world. It is a sonic journey through the angst, passion, fun and freedom found through “sticking it to the Man”.
Break the Glass, Burn the Cage (The Sound of Indie Punk Rock) is announced coinciding with International Women’s Day 2025 as a charity record, and all the tracks on this record have kindly been donated by the bands for free. This means that for every sale, the entirety of the profits will go to our two chosen charities that do their utmost to help women and girls from all backgrounds and ages, covering everything from domestic abuse, bereavement, homelessness and war - Brighton Women's Centre & War Child.

Brighton Women’s Centre - have been supporting self-identifying women in Sussex for over 45 years. “We help women from all backgrounds facing all kinds of issues, to live happier lives. Women dealing with bereavement or trauma, women who have been through homelessness or the criminal justice system, survivors of abuse or discrimination - we welcome them all”

War Child - “War Child works in some of the hardest-to-reach places to support those who are hardest hit. It aims to reach children as quickly as possible when conflict breaks out and stays long after the cameras have gone to support them through their recovery. Because one child caught up in conflict is one child too many. War Child understands children’s needs, respects and stands up for their rights, and puts them at the centre of everything it does. War Child will never give up on children affected by conflict.”

Break the Glass, Burn the Cage (The Sound of Indie Punk Rock) is announced in time for International Women’s Day, and is scheduled to be released on 9th May 2025. The record will be released on both Limited Edition Recycled Vinyl and CD formats.
