Saint Punk and Matt McAndrew Pull No Punches on “Gloves”
With three new releases in the last three months alone, it’s safe to say grunge house trailblazer Saint Punk is on a roll.

Jumpstarted by a banging percussion line and blazing synths, “Gloves” is unrelenting and full of passion.

Saint Punk Drops Bouncy New Single “Comatose” and Shares Music Video
Combining his love for rock music with the sounds of house, Saint Punk has been delighting fans with his blend of grunge house. A little over a month ago, he dropped an intense single “Closer Tonight” with a dramatic, cinematic companion.

Saint Punk has done it again, delivering a high-octane explosion of his signature grunge house sound with his new single “Closer Tonight.” His latest offering has arrived alongside a stunning introspective music video.

As he slowly descends into madness he’s followed by a shadowy figure, who matches the eerily intense production beat for beat. Both the storytelling and track composition express a sense of raw energy that seems to encapsulate the general consensus of how many are feeling over the last year. In times of uncertainty, music has a way of allowing anger and frustration to be express...
