Judo CHOP! from Melbourne, Australia throw melodic punk, thrash metal, martial arts, and Jimmy Barnes into the pit with no rules, no ref, and no care for the victor! This high-energy six-piece is known for shredding three-part guitar harmonies, relentless basslines, belting Aussie hooks, and a driving melodic intensity that’ll have you frothing to hit the gym.
Drawing inspiration from the likes of Strung Out, Protest the Hero, and Propagandhi, Judo CHOP! have stormed stages across the country with legends including A Wilhelm Scream (USA), Ignite (USA), and Aussie heavyweights 28 Days, Knife Hands, and Fake News. Their unyielding sonic assault has earned them airplay on Triple J’s renowned Short.Fast.Loud and Triple M’s Hard N Heavy, alongside the playlists of their devoted international fans.
The band have released the first single Fearless from their upcoming EP/Album titled Cosmic Dust. Cosmic Dust is a two part concept EP which in its entirety, will collate as an album. The first EP Cosmic is due for release on April 11, 2025 via Canadian powerhouse label People of Punk Rock Records (Face to Face, A Wilhelm Scream, Bodyjar, Frenzal Rhomb).
