Dustin Burmester yeah dude... that’s because it’s normal at this point to not be straight edge and love straight edge hardcore. Fuck it. If someone gets upset at you for that then it’s there problem not yours. The singer of my band is straight edge and doesn’t give a single fuck.
That riff from 3:14 with guitar and drums only is too groovy for this world! And the lyrics in the first song about him being sxe for 10 years with shouts like "NO ESCAPE, NO EXIT!" are epic! I love the sxe energy, it captures that perseverance and strength of unstopable self improvement, control, power, agression and bold personal character.
I want to touch this but only quickly; I've been doin this a looong time. And I'm still goin. I was at the rail at US83. I broke a tooth at the Cow Palace in the pit at an RHCP show in '95. And in '19 I got a black eye in a Cannibal Corpse pit at the Ace of Spades in Sac. Don't bother doing the math, I'll say it, I'm too old. But I can't stop. I've forgotten more music than most people have ever heard. And these guys REALLY fuckin impress me. And I should add, I hate karate kicking hard core dancing, sorry not sorry. The mosh circle pit is WAY better, it allows more people to participate. But I digress. When it comes to hardcore stuff I look for music that starts, goes, and ends hard, hard, hard. When I listen to a hardcore band I have one really simple litmus: Will this music help me on the bench press? When you press big weight it's total commitment, once you pull the bar off the pegs you're all in. And I need music that does the same - these guys are up to the task. While I'm not an expert on arranging music these guys have a good ear. Seems dumb but they sound like they actually know how, and are good at playing their various instruments. And while good musicians can make bad music the inverse is not true (unless you're AC/DC). The breaks, the time signature changes, staying with each other, bass punches synched, it all adds up to a really clean, really great sound. And praise be to God, so far they seem to avoid the absolute disastrous traps that so fucking many other bands in this genre fall into which are the absolutely moronic: "creepy dungeon sounds," clips of dialoge from movies (specifically Scarface, and 50's horror films), yelling bullshit views on something or other over the beginning or end of the tracks. Or stupid instrumental shit that has no relation to the rest of a song. Desolated (who I love) completely fucked up their 2019 album doing this shit. The computer talking at the beginning of "A New Realm of Misery" sounds like something from a Tribe Called Quest's "AOI Bionix" album. Which in fairness had some solid sounds, but not anything you'd want to bench press or mosh to. Band: If you're reading this I'm begging you, don't do it. de Saint-Exupéry said "Perfection is attained not when you can find nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing left to take away." All that stupid shit next to or over your music is like a turd in a punchbowl. Just lay down your tracks, no gimmicks; clear, clean, heavy, and hard. Hearing some good shit coming out of this space among these younger bands: Inclination, Trail of Lies, and others I can't remember because frankly I've been hit in the head too many times. I know 2020 has been a bitch generally, and specifically for the industry, but I hope you guys can keep it going. I've been listening for a long time and I think you guys really have something, you're not like the rest. There's a cohesion and punch to your sound that isn't common. Remember the "KISS" theory, and when all this virus bullshit is behind us, know that the fans will be waiting and HUNGRY! As for me, if you could use a good laugh, you will find me not fat but sleek, a true hardcore hog of Epicurus' herd. I'll be waiting for you at the back of the pit. Black boots, torn shorts, no shirt, tall, bald, ripped, angry, and old. Slainte!
I want to invite this band over to play when my bighorn turn their cRAP up. I'll add my stack and we'll vibrate the blunts out of their hands. HC forever!
I ce been looking for this band for a while .. I have listened to it and digged it a few years ago but lost completely the name … fuck it’s good … integrity vibe. Not a sxe but nice job on this one

I can't stop listening to this band, their tone has such a unique sound. Heavy, that's all I can say.
You call this heavy!???!?? Seriously!????? Grow up
Check out integrity … you will find the same sound or very close to it anyway
Used to listen to a lot of SxE stuff while detoxing and trying clean my life up, love this fucking shit.
lol I never appreciated sXe stuff until I went to detox, got clean, and started going to the gym.
Still listening to this religiously. So good
0:00 No Exit
3:13 In with the new
5:27 Culture of Corruption
7:34 An X of my own
10:04 All i need
I'm not even close to straight edge but I rock this shit daily

my X is not yours to claim. live your life as you see fit
I have 8 albums with my band and we never mentioned that topic ever, we rather drink a lot hehehe
Love how complex and layered this is.
If you like this band, you'll enjoy Architects too.

I like the high notes in between the chugs. It's hard for hardcore bands to sound unique.
yup that's harmonic riffs
1:50 - ten years after they said you were just going through a phase
Cracks open a beer.
Lights cigarette.
