Connecticut’s own self-deprecating, noise rock entity INTERCOURSE joins the Brutal Panda family and is set to release their fourth full-length studio album this Fall.
Music for aliens, made by mutants. INTERCOURSE formed in 2013 and has been annoying ever since. With the lofty (or pointless, depending on who you ask) goal of ditching the pretension of noise rock and fusing it with the immediacy of hardcore they’ve managed to release a record per year since 2014. The 2023-released Halo Castration Institute helped the band reach a new level of notoriety with positive reviews across the board. With the release of a last year’s EP Egyptian Democracy, the band is sure to become the high watermark for annoying adults who dress like they’re seventeen and simply will not quit.
INTERCOURSE has played sold out shows with the likes of Chat Pile, Deadguy, The Red Chord, and The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die. The quartet has been featured in notable outlets Decibel, Lambgoat, and New Noise Magazine, and were recently featured on The Needle Drop’s top 15 EPs of 2024.
Stream INTERCOURSE’s new “Running A Cemetery Without A License” single everywhere HERE.

INTERCOURSE Live:
5/24/2025 Utica Vintage Club – Utica, NY
“The riffs are chaotic, the vocals are unhinged and mutant at points” – The Needle Drop
“Contorted metalcore/noise rock composite that sounds like Deadguy mixed with one of those Eastern European drugs that liquifies your skin.” – Decibel Magazine
“The world gets worse and INTERCOURSE‘s music gets better – a callback to pummeling hardcore roots with all-too-relevant themes of a broken world and its people.” – Everything Is Noise
“Transgressive and terrifying…equally exhilarating and exhausting. It doesn’t reward repeat listens so much as it requires them. By the end of it all, you’ve grown to like the abuse.” – Lambgoat
“Fans of the most messed-up sounding forms of noisecore and noise rock, take note, your new favorite band is here.” – New Noise Magazine
INTERCOURSE:
Tarek Ahmed – vocals
