Say hello to the Riot Fest 2019 lineup! The Chicago-based festival will be celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, and they’ve spared no expense at booking a strong lineup of rock bands that includes Blink-182, Slayer’s final Chicago performance, and a reunited Bikini Kill as headliners. Plenty more excellence in the undercard as well, including The Raconteurs, Rise Against, The Flaming Lips, Jawbreaker, Ween, Bloc Party, Die Antwoord, Patti Smith, Rancid, Violent Femmes, Descendents, The B-52s, Dashboard Confessional, The Struts, Bob Mould, and many more! Obviously the lineup poster is below and you know how to read, so give it a quick look! Tickets are on sale now for a pretty inexpensive $130, but prices will go up over time so the earlier you buy the better. Riot Fest 2019 takes place from September 13-15 in Chicago’s Douglas Park.

Today’s Pick Your Poison might not feature any Riot Fest artists, but there’s still plenty of great music to enjoy. Highlights come from courtship., Tourist, and Trippie Redd, but that’s definitely not all. Journey beyond the jump for songs from Ash Walker (ft. Laville), Bones & Fifty Grand, Curbi, HAN, Hanne Hukkelberg, Johari Noelle, Kemba, Lil Keed (ft. YNW Melly & Lil Uzi Vert), and Theo Bard.

Press play on any of the three tracks at the top here and get a feel for their sound and if they might be for you. Of course there’s always more, and if you journey past the jump you’ll find more songs from AKA Lui, Asquith, Athlete Whippet, boerd, Miss Red, Sean Kennedy, Same Girls, Silverbacks, and Slayyyter.

There’s an unintentional theme to the three tracks in today’s Pick Your Poison highlights: nature. It starts with a delightful track from Branches, like on a tree or in a river. Then go for a swim with something new from FISHER. Follow that up by clearing out your barn of all the great Haybaby. But I digress. Slide on past the jump to discover even more new music from Aisha Devi, Carla Geneve, CJ Fly, Godlands, Jeanines, Medasin (ft. Kathleen), Mood J, Tee Grizzley, and Cosey Fanni Tutti’s reworking of a Penelope Trappes song.

Happy to have a new song from FLETCHER leading off today’s Pick Your Poison. This officially makes her two for two with great singles, and “If You’re Gonna Lie” plays out like a prequel to her breakthrough track “Undrunk”. Also fully enjoying the song from Mia Gladstone below, and I’ll admit that the Young Nudy track ft. 21 Savage certainly grabbed my attention. Soak in some more excellence after the jump, with music from Beverly Kills, Daniella Mason, EDEN, Emotional Oranges, Erik Koskinen, N.A.O. Quelly, Necking, ShitKid, and YaSi.
