The Flatliners in San Jose | Metro Silicon Valley | Silicon Valley's Leading Weekly
The Flatliners are an Ontario punk outfit that debuted in 2002 with ska-flavored, high-energy rock. Their following grew through appearances on the Fat Wreck Chords tour, leading to tours across Europe, Australia, and other regions. Relentless touring and critically praised albums increased their profile, and opening spots for Dropkick Murphys, Joan Jett, Less Than Jake, and NOFX broadened their appeal. Their seventh and latest studio album is Cold World, released in 2026. The May 30 show at The Ritz in San Jose features the Flatliners at 7pm, with Samiam and Strangelight also on the bill.
