A new Instagram account highlighting hardcore bands using Reels

This is definitely self-promotion, but I'm hoping the ultimate impact is the promotion of deserving artists.

I started a new Instagram account that's sharing the best of hardcore (and a little punk and metal sprinkled in) using a format I haven't seen much of: I create a basic video clip (with a Reel) using album artwork, then post 60-90-second clips of songs using Instagram's sound library (which is surprisingly robust) so that everything is copyright-friendly. Presentation is minimal with no descriptions, so that the songs can speak for themselves right there in the feed.

I have no intent to monetize this, I just want to promote great bands, both new and old. If this sounds interesting to you, please check out and consider following Fast Music Feed on Instagram (@fastmusicfeed). Thank you for giving it a chance!

Update: listening to Capra now; definitely meets my criteria! I’ll feature a track once I get to the know the album better.
