POUND FOR POUND

Since forming in 1999, Pound For Pound from Springfield, IL have proven themselves to be one of the hardest working hardcore bands in the Midwest. Pound For Pound borrow elements of New York hardcore and metal while managing to create a unique sound of their own. Combined with bleak lyrics, the band's music provides an angst-filled soundtrack for the broken and the beaten. Performing frequent shows throughout the Midwest and touring often, the band continues to bring their music to new cities and audiences constantly while maintaining the support of current fans.
