Underage

Underage was a classic italian hardcore band from the early '80s. Their sound epitomized the country's extreme take on the then-burgeoning hardcore scene: chainsaw guitar shredding, manic or shrieking vocals, marathon basslines, and hyperactive drumming. Along with bands like Negazione, Chain Reaction, Ingesti and Wretched, Underage was one of the fiercest, most memorable bands in all of the country's punk rock history.

They are known for their intensely brutal and fast sections combined with breakdowns and gang chants to match and top the best in the game. They have also become known for powerful and violent live shows.

LoveHateHero

At the end of 2008, LoveHateHero felt like it was time to step outside the boundaries they had created for themselves with their previous efforts. After building a solid fan base with their first two albums, Just Breathe and White Lies, which they had supported by touring nationally with such acts as Chiodos, Funeral for a Friend, and Scary Kids Scaring Kids, the band, despite all their hard work, felt like they had not quite hit their stride.
