Chicago-based punk rock duo No Tagbacks have released a new single, “Tables Turning,” further establishing their presence in the Midwest DIY punk scene. Known for their melodic sensibilities and energetic delivery, the band—comprising Evan Douglas Peters and Christian George—continues to blend pop-punk hooks with raw, unfiltered lyricism.
“Tables Turning” follows a string of 2025 singles, including “Locked Eyes” and “2 Grizzly Bears vs the IRS,” and showcases the band’s evolving sound within the pop-punk framework. The track features upbeat guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and emotionally direct vocals, consistent with their previous releases.
Emerging from Chicago’s active underground scene, No Tagbacks have maintained a strong independent ethos, releasing music without label backing and connecting with audiences through live shows and online platforms. Their style draws from early 2000s pop-punk while incorporating a distinctly modern, regional edge.
