Index

Introducing Index – a subversive, electronics-influenced hardcore punk band via Los Angeles and Philadelphia. Former members of Control Top Alan Creedon (he/him) and Alex Lichtenauer (they/them) started Index in the summer of 2025, and it quickly became clear the sound would grow out of their close friendship. Stripping away the dense orchestration of their previous band, Index leans into sweaty, visceral physicality, with Creedon’s guitar locked intuitively to Lichtenauer’s drums, navigating complex rhythms as one. The result feels as immediate as it does deliberate, two longtime collaborators reinvigorated by the act of making something new together.

Index recently shared their debut single entitled “Cellophane,” out on Lichtenauer’s own Get Better Records. Written across coasts, just like its band members, the energetic “Cellophane” is an ever-shifting, slyly progressive collision of punk aggression and body-moving rhythm. It was recorded at Show Me The Body’s Corpus Studios, and was produced, mixed and mastered by Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Show Me The Body, Blood Incantation, Soulfly, and more.)
