It's new for a hardcore band to be big, unprecedented for one from Australia. Big in two ways-for hardcore kids from Sydney, playing good shows worldwide, proudly representing their scene. And second, for any band from the scene playing hard music, crossing over hard into the larger world. It's quick work to find SPEED doing both: headlining shows in England, New York, Japan, globally, turning in blazing sets at Sound & Fury and This Is Hardcore, among other massive heavy music festivals. Seven-figure viewed videos-their set at S&F, short films for their songs-and tunes headlining video game soundtracks. Famous folks wearing their jerseys, people new to the scene showing up to more gigs. SPEED know that because of these global crossover moments, they might be some people's first hardcore band; the idea is that they'll get introduced not only to SPEED, but also to the scene and the people behind it. Find SPEED, and you'll find Sydney hardcore; find a band making hard music, find more energy back home.

QUOTES FROM THE ARTIST
REAL LIFE LOVE
My time in hardcore has informed the relationships I have with everyone I hold close. An unconditional sense of love and loyalty. A bond that knows no words. Relationships that now span a lifetime. To us, this unique sense of deep-seeded understanding is the essence of HC, it's what we're most passionate about and grateful for. Yet there are many in, and especially outside of this space who conflate this idea. If you stick around long enough, you might just get it. O
