Which band/album got you into hardcore and why? Jane Doe by Converge. I grew up around jazz and experimental music so when I was introduced to Converge it blew my mind that a heavy band could incorporate such aggression while maintaining their musicality.
Where is the hardcore scene headed? It seems a lot of bands are writing passionate, socially conscious and political music as of late, which I think is a really exciting regardless of the genre. People giving a shit is so important.
Most the most hardcore thing you've ever seen at a show? We played Endless Heights' record release show earlier this year and during their set Christian from Endless Heights' lung collapsed, but he finished the set like an absolute weapon.
Which act on the Hardcore 2016 line-up will blow our minds and why? Homesick are number one. Melodic, politically aggressive hardcore that gets hotter the more you watch. Year Of The Rat will be dope too.
When is your set at Hardcore 2016? We are playing just before Relentless on Friday.
