# Never A Phase Network

> Emo, punk, and hardcore music news, reviews, and podcasts. A collective of content creators on a mission to keep the scene alive, building community around emo, pop-punk, and all the genres that orbit them.

Never A Phase Network (NAPNET) started as a group of misfit music nerds who wouldn't stop talking about their favorite bands — so they made it official. Now NAPNET is a hub for all things emo, pop-punk, and beyond: social media content collaboration, podcast episodes, written articles, curated playlists, live show and venue reviews, song covers, and spotlighting up-and-coming bands and fresh new music.
