Kentucky’s The Wish You Weres are back with a new album, Universally Unacceptable, and it’s a solid punch of no-frills punk rock. Based out of Paducah and going strong since 2004, the band has always leaned into melody, grit, and DIY spirit—and this record keeps that momentum alive.
Across 30 minutes, they deliver tight, energetic tracks that don’t waste a second. It’s punk made for small rooms, loud nights, and anyone who still believes in doing it yourself. The songs are sharp, honest, and carry that worn-in vibe only years of playing and touring can give.
If you’re into punk that’s raw, catchy, and straight from the heart of the Midwest, Universally Unacceptable is worth spinning.
