   About Westside Proletariat (RIP 2000-2006)
midwest hardcore / thrash / punk / metal. Aggressive lightning-fast hardcore bordering on metal. High energy shows and recordings. Intense politi-punk vocals. Aggressive and intense and infectuous.

the new album is 10 songs of blistering fast hardcore with thunderous yet melodic guitars, machine gun drums, anti-government sentiments- heartfelt but not emo. 2 instrumentals to let you catch your breath.

we started out as a terrible drunk-punk slop-core band in 2000. since then we have refined and rehashed our sound, turning our sights to more complicated technically challenging music. we are now some kind of hybrid-crossbreed of metal, punk, hardcore, and thrash. over the years we have been compared to Pennywise, Sick of it All, Minor Threat, Suicidal Tendencies, Agnostic Front, Avenged Sevenfold, Rise Against, and other great bands which is very flattering. we play with tons of touring bands and will often give them a place to crash if possible. we have a strong DIY mentality and make our own music, our own merch, and our own marketing our own way.

Jason, I have known you since grade school. You have always done well with everything you apply yourself to. Thats why I dont need to hear your vocals to know that you fuckin rock. There is no dought in my mind that you will do the Bald tattooed smelly guy thing. You dont know how to fail.

Haven't heard anything about you guys in a long ass time(although I haven't been checking much). What's been going on?

I got a new group together so maybe some show or something in the near future. Give me a shout back on my personal page or the paged link through the picture.'
