Detroit’s Resistors deliver another standout with “The Butcher’s Design,” a melodic punk single that hits hard while staying undeniably catchy. Known for blending urgency with memorable hooks, the band continues to build on over a decade of solid DIY output—tight songwriting, raw honesty, and just the right amount of polish to stay sharp without losing their bite.
The track kicks off with driving guitars and a rhythm section that doesn’t waste a second. Vocals come in with a balance of grit and clarity, making each line stick. It’s the kind of track that feels built for dive bars and sweaty basements, but still polished enough to stand out in your playlist. There’s a familiarity in the structure, but the energy and emotion make it feel urgent and new.
With “The Butcher’s Design,” Resistors remind us why they’ve earned a place in the Midwest punk conversation. It’s lean, impactful, and built to last.
