We are a vegan and straight edge band. Our songs are about things you're probably familiar with- urban poverty, the soullessness of consumerism, the exploitation of animals, the subjugation of women, corrupt and racist cops (ACAB!), the constant struggle to remove ourselves from these things, and remove these things from the world. Hardcore bands have been talking about this stuff since the 80's, and over 20 years later all these ideas are still (if not more) important. So while some bands trade their ideals for merch sales and some kids trade their outrage for a pair of sneaks, we'll continue to maintain the ideas, ethics, and fun that lay- however buried- at the foundation of this movement and scene.
keep doing the great work. there are to many bands that write music that doesnt have any real meaning to it we need more bands like yours to help educate the people of issues and spread the word.
