With the dust settling from Sound and Fury's Los Angeles takeover, the magnitude of the event continues to become more and more apparent. Long regarded as one of the most important congregations in hardcore, the annual summer gathering has become a cultural cornerstone - a celebration of the community and culture that galvanizes around the music. 

Capturing some of the highlights from Sound and Fury 2025, photographer Erica Lauren was battled the heat and stage potatoes to secure some images from some of the standout sets that took place over the weekend. Underscoring the diversity even among a hardcore-specific festival, sets from Basement, Scowl, God's Hate, Missing Link and Kruelty were just a few of the highlights worth revisiting.
