Swedish melodic skate punk outfit Mistakes Were Made injected some serious adrenaline into the punk scene with their fresh three-track EP, Corporate Punks, which dropped on June 26, 2026. Hailing from Norrköping, the band effortlessly bridges 90s Swedish skate punk nostalgia with 2000s melodic alternative rock, drawing clear inspiration from icons like Millencolin and Bad Religion.
Driven by fast, guitar-heavy rhythms and massive vocal hooks, the EP dives into heavy themes like anxiety, hangovers, and collapsing relationships. The standout tracks include “Counting Hours,” which dissects morning-after existential dread, and “Duct Tape & Wishes,” a song detailing a toxic, cyclical relationship. Rounding out the project, “W.U.F.” confronts the chaos of an unstable future. Corporate Punks is a masterclass in upbeat, guitar-driven angst that demands a spot in your daily rotation.
