About Spike Polite & Sewage
Spike Polite & Sewage, a band synonymous with the raw spirit of New York City's underground punk scene, continues to embody the enduring vibrancy and rebellion of punk music. Led by the legendary Spike Polite, known for his work with Reagan Youth and Cheetah Chrome, the band has carved a niche in the punk world with their unapologetically raw sound and socially charged lyrics. They have captivated audiences with their dynamic performances across cities like Pittsburgh, Nashville, and Austin and the Brooklyn Vegan Punk Island Festival this past summer. With the addition of talents like Michelle Shocked on bass, Beast on drums, and Tony Romero on guitar, Spike Polite & Sewage creates music that is as gritty and honest as the streets from which they emerged.
Their 2024 album, Punk Not Dead, was released on vinyl on January 15, and is produced by Ted Sabety for Solid Bass Records. It is a powerful mix of punk, rock, and industrial noise, encapsulating the band's ethos of challenging the status quo and representing the voice of the disenfranchised. After strong reception, the project released in April 2024 on all digital streaming platforms. The band followed up this album with a new single, "Your Robot Took My Job," on September 20, further solidifying their place in the punk rock legacy.
New Releases
On September 20, 2024, Spike Polite & Sewage unleashed their latest single, “Your Robot Took My Job”, a collaboration with the genre-defying Les Techno.

Following the success of their Punk Not Dead album, this single is yet another powerful and rebellious anthem that stays true to the gritty roots of New York City's underground punk scene.
