SLD 173   Harker - All That Remains

INFO

Harker are a punk band from Brighton, (UK) that channel the spirit of Dischord Records and ‘90s indie fuzz into a sound that’s equal parts urgency and melody. Drawing influence from the likes of Superchunk, Against Me!, and The Replacements, the band fuse driving punk energy with heart-on-sleeve songwriting and anthemic hooks.

Since forming in 2015, Harker have grown from a solo project helmed by vocalist/ guitarist Mark Boniface into a full-throttle four-piece and one of the UK’s most consistent underground exports. Early days spent playing house shows and DIY spaces laid the foundation for a relentless touring ethic that has since taken them across the UK, Europe, the United States, and Japan.

With two UK charting full-lengths released via a network of respected independent labels—including Wiretap Records (US), Disconnect Disconnect (UK), Paper + Plastick (US), Shield Recordings (EU), and Fixing a Hole (JP)—Harker have steadily built a reputation for emotionally charged records and explosive live performances. They’ve appeared at festivals such as Booze Cruise, Manchester Punk Fest, The Great Escape, Call of the Wild, and the legendary Fest in Florida, and have shared stages with artists including The Wildhearts, Gouge Away, Spanish Love Songs, Magnapop, and Spielbergs.

In 2026, Harker return with their long-awaited third album, ‘All That Remains’—their most ambitious and fully realised work to date, and the first to feature guitarist Louis May joining the established line up of Boniface, Phoebe Saunders (bass) and Matt Claxton (drums). Recorded in their hometown at the Levellers’ Metway Studio and engineered by Toby May, the album captures a band pushing their sound forward while staying rooted in the raw honesty that defines them.

To celebrate the release, Harker will tour the UK this autumn, bringing their cathartic and high-energy live show to stages across the country.
