Hardcore. Between these guys and Violation, Santa Barbara is responsible for two of the best NY influenced hardcore bands in the world, let alone California...There's some real cool influences from the Cro-Mags to more 90's style NYHC without dragging along some of the cheese of that era. (Believe it). Releases.
