SUMMARY:Sled Island presents: Sick Puppy\, schoolyard\, Invisible Hand and ENTWINE
DESCRIPTION:Sick PuppyOtherwise known as your girlfriend’s favourite band\, Sick Puppy began as three friends playing hardcore mid-pandemic but quickly progressed with the release of their debut tape Haunt The Hill and a supporting tour in 2022. Jump to 2026 and we find the band with an upcoming LP\, a second guitarist\, and a drive to expand upon their hardcore roots. \nschoolyardCreating an irresistible alt-punk racket that rides the line between noise and melody\, schoolyard captures raw energy and emotion in their dynamic sound. Driven by a passion for blending diverse genres\, the three-piece merges a gritty garage rock vibe with indie and punk influences\, resulting in something that feels both fresh and nostalgic.\n  ​​Invisible HandPolitically charged and quick to the punch\, Invisible Hand is an East Coast hardcore band that rejects breakdowns in favour of pure intensity. With their self-titled debut released last June and an EP on the way\, this hard-hitting trio is ready to bring the noise to Sled Island.\nENTWINEInitially formed with the sole intention of being a scary band to pad out hardcore bills\, ENTWINE has since developed into so much more. The heavy four-piece (featuring members of Abrupt Decay\, Killing of a Sacred Deer\, and Satanic Tea Co.) now describe the project as “a love letter to ‘90s mathcore/metalcore and Y2K-era media.” Important info: Start and running times are subject to change. Please check the Sled Island schedule in June for exact set times.\nUpon entering a festival venue\, the passholder agrees to being photographed\, filmed or recorded in that venue\, and agrees to the publication\, reproduction\, distribution and broadcast of all photographs\, video or other recordings of the passholder’s voice or likeness without further notice or compensation in any publicity\, advertisement or other publication carried-out by\, or on behalf of\, Sled Island and in perpetuity in any manner and media whatsoever\, including print\, broadcast or internet.\nEveryone has the right to feel safe and included at Sled Island.
