About

Kartika 55 is a Chicago-based hardcore punk band known for an intense, heavy sound that draws significant influence from 90s death metal. Emerging in late 2025, the group quickly became a fixture in the Midwest underground scene, frequently performing at Chicago venues such as Reggies, Subterranean, and Casa Cafe. They maintain a strong connection to the Milwaukee/Wisconsin music community, notably appearing on the Milwaukee-focused platform 'Didn't That Hurt' and performing at events like the Milwaukee Hardcore Toy Drive at X-Ray Arcade. Their discography includes the 2025 release 'A Just Barrage,' featuring tracks like 'A New Dawn for Our Kind' and 'Weep, Savior.'
