Weakened Friends
Weakened Friends
Alternative Rock
Weakened Friends are a fuzzed-out, high-energy indie rock trio from Portland, Maine,
known for their punchy hooks, raw lyricism, and loud, cathartic live shows. Led by
songwriter/guitarist Sonia Sturino, with Annie Hoffman on bass and Adam Hand on
drums, the band channels a mix of 90s alt-rock nostalgia and modern emotional
intensity.
At a time when numbness prevails and singers whisper apathy rather than scream their
feelings, Feels Like Hell offers a compelling antidote. Sonia sings about everything
threatening to kill the spirit—deep nihilism in the face of global capitalism—with the kind
of spirit that can’t be killed. Sonia’s vocals imagine better worlds, ones free of restraint
or surveillance. There’s no self-censorship here—Sonia isn’t afraid to scream until their
throat is raw, and Annie isn’t afraid to bass solo through the apocalypse. Leaning into
rock and post-pop-punk with heart and reverence, they perform with a freedom many
feel bereft of today.
“Weakened Friends might be a DIY band, but they sound like they’re ready for the
biggest stages.”
• Stereogum
“For more current-day, ’90s-style grunge-punk, Weakened Friends are one of the best
newer bands doing it.”
• Brooklyn Vegan
“A defiant pop-punk anthem”
• FLOOD (on "Tough Luck")
"On their third album, Maine band Weakened Friends claw through a bleak present with
another collection of alt-rock rippers"
• The Boston Globe
"If The Flaming Lips and Alanis Morissette stumbled into each other on an Italian piazza
and gave each other a disapproving sniff, Weakened Friends’ third, self-released album
Feels Like Hell might pop up into the space between them.”
