Dwarves return with JENKEM, a brutal new album led by “We Are The Scene” and a chaotic 2026 tour across Europe and North America.
Dwarves return with JENKEM, a new full-length album arriving June 5 through Greedy Records and distributed by MVD. After decades of pushing boundaries across punk, hardcore, thrash, and underground heavy music, the band continues to thrive through chaos, intensity, and unpredictability.
To launch the new era, the band released the video for “We Are The Scene.” The track serves as an aggressive introduction to JENKEM. It also reaffirms the band’s long-standing influence on punk culture. Fast riffs, abrasive vocals, and relentless energy drive the song from start to finish.

The best live punk act of all time is also the last punk band to make great records! Check this teaser from the JENKEM LP—“We Are The Scene.
Moreover, JENKEM embraces the raw aggression that shaped the early crossover between punk and thrash. The album strips everything down to its most feral form. Across thirteen explosive tracks and one slower, crushing detour, the record delivers sharp riffs, violent hooks, and nonstop intensity without wasting a second.
In addition, Dwarves continue to champion their DIY roots. Alongside the album release, the band plans to roll out live performance clips, animated videos, collectible 7-inch releases, signed editions, and exclusive merchandise through official channels.
Furthermore, the band will bring their chaotic live performances across North America and Europe throughout 2026. The tour includes shows with Screeching Weasel, Eyehategod, Total Chaos, and The Exploited. They will also appear at major festivals such as Hellfest, Obscene Extreme Festival, Sjock Festival, and Azkena Rock Festival. Through these performances, the band continues to prove its lasting impact on punk, hardcore, and heavy music.
Stream “We Are The Scene” now and experience the raw chaos of Dwarves before JENKEM arrives on June 5.
