The Kerrang! staff’s top albums of 2024
You’ve seen the Kerrang! albums of 2024. Now check out what the staff were all listening to this year…
Let's open up this chubby, adorable little pit.
Look, life is hard. The world's a harsh and unforgiving place, most humans are monsters at heart, and not nearly enough people are listening to the Misfits right now. Sometimes, it feels like the universe has it out for us all. So here, to hopefully offer you a break from the ills of the world, are some groundhogs moshing to Knocked Loose.
Look at these chubby little guys go.
There. We hope we've made a difference.

The video in question was created by Buzzfeed writer Tim Unkenholz, using the Knocked Loose track Mistakes Like Fractures. Listen to the full song below and know where these giant rodents are coming from:
It's been a bang-up year for Knocked Loose. Besides releasing their massive sophomore album A Different Shade Of Blue (produced by Fit For An Autopsy's Will Putney) to widespread acclaim, the band played to a select group of fans in a tiny dive bar at our Brooklyn K! Pit and made a surprise appearance at a Bernie rally in their home state of Kentucky. All of which is well-earned -- Knocked Loose's energy and ethos are what have earned them the title of the most exciting American hardcore band right now.
