Emerging from the vibrant underground of Costa Mesa, California, DINERBOY have unleashed their explosive new single “X-15.” This track is a visceral onslaught of hardcore punk energy, featuring corrosive vocals, screeching guitars, and intermittent metal rhythms that spiral into chaotic flourishes.
Composed of seasoned songwriters and musicians—Ali Aboudaya, David Giali, Jimmy Brown, Casey Snyder, Taylor Henry, and Michael Corell—DINERBOY is the culmination of a decade spent navigating the Southern California music scene. Drawing inspiration from the anarchic intensity of Refused and Slipknot to the harmonious vibes of the Beach Boys and the nostalgic chimes of Nintendo 64, the band crafts a sound that’s both familiar and refreshingly eclectic.
“X-15” exemplifies DINERBOY’s commitment to delivering raw emotion and intricate musicianship, blending themes of resilience and self-discovery with a backdrop of aggressive riffs and primal rhythms. A gut-punching anthem that ignites mosh pits and provokes thought in equal measure, the song is a visceral exploration of betrayal and disillusionment, capturing the pain of falling from a trusted place and facing harsh realities of deception. Through vivid metaphors of flight and false appearances, “X-15” criticizes those who hide their true nature, leading to broken trust and self-destruction.

For DINERBOY, the creation of music is a joyous endeavor rooted in passion. “What started off as a joke—’let’s start a hardcore band lol’—has transformed into a project we’re genuinely proud of,” they share. “We actually love this record and don’t plan on stopping.”
Unburdened by label constraints and embracing a DIY ethos, DINERBOY embodies the spirit of independence. Their music defies easy categorization, much like the chaotic yet meticulously choreographed Autobots’ fight scenes they reference—a dynamic blend of aggression and artistry.
“We consider it a joy to make and play music,” they declare. “We’re beyond excited to launch this music and eternally thankful for anyone who listens.”
“What does it sound like to escape Alcatraz Island? What band scores the mind of Scooby-Doo as he unmasks the ghoul? What songs fill Pennywise’s clown cranium while pre-gaming kid-catching?” the band muses. Their upcoming debut EP, slated for release on October 25, 2024, seeks to answer these whimsical yet intriguing questions.
