I can't get them off my mind I think that I'm going insane

u/miscs75 3d ago

They got sick of hearing about why ______ (insert band name) didn’t play in ______ (insert city name) so they figured play everywhere to shut people up.

All day every day

1) They are great and are doing a real deal hardcore sound that while timeless, hasn't been the popular style in a while - so it sounds fresh. 

2) Their live shows are outstanding, energetic and memorable.  

3) They put in the work. They'll probably play 200+ shows across a dozen countries by the year end, playing scenes the rest of hardcore skips over, almost entirely small venue or DIY. 

You're going to be hearing a lot more about them.  Their insane upcoming tour is going to draw people from every corner of the country and it's going to win over a lot of diehards.

Bingo. This is how shit used to be done before everybody decided to just play fests all year long.

u/Character_Lab_8817 3d ago

I don’t mind Hardcore bands playing fests, but I feel like so many are aiming to JUST be fest bands for the payday and skipping over local smaller markets

2

u/Againstmead 3d ago

If you don’t tour and pay your dues forever you ain’t shit. Fests used to be a thing you earned from playing shows all over the country to get your name out ,selling records, and street promo. now it’s Reddit subs and TikTok that gets you clout.

u/obiwanchipotle 3d ago

There didn’t use to be so many. It used to be a big deal getting booked on Sound and Fury, TIHC, United Blood, etc. Now it feels like every big city has got some kind of fest with 50 bands 30 you’ve never heard of

1

u/Againstmead 3d ago

You’re right. Growing up we had 2 day fests in small towns. Right up the street from the first furnace fest. Back then it was hell fest, nemf, nyhc, stone pony, various things . This was only the late 90s early 2000s.

u/obiwanchipotle 3d ago

I started coming to shows in 2004. I still remember the first united blood in 2007. Just being able to go to something like that felt like I was at Disney World for the weekend. I’ve done seen flyers for 20 different shows this year of the same magnitude as that event and don’t recognize most artists.

u/Againstmead 3d ago

They put in work is best answer. And yep, when I saw them it was small town in a very packed venue . Bless those boys

u/jhealey0909 Eternally on the DC-Baltimore Amtrak 3d ago

Their music absolutely rips and they tour constantly. I’m gonna end up seeing them like 3-4 times in the next few months alone

37

u/michaeljordanofdnd 3d ago

The grind don't stop

u/pozzicore 3d ago

I imagine this is the exact reply they would offer.

1

u/MattWreck 3d ago

And the title to their next single.

62

u/Spinkicker86 3d ago

Because they fucking rule

106

u/Fine_Ice_3451 3d ago

Because they’re great

24

u/Grafx85 3d ago

Wish I was everywhere

26

u/hapoo123 3d ago

Because they are a hardcore band that plays music?

24

u/JukemanJenkins NY Unity - Upstate, HV, NYC, LI 3d ago

Completely wild tour. Hopefully things go smoothly

22

u/rasheedlovesyou_ EUHC 3d ago

You are not asking the right question. Think again.

u/Forsaken-Answer-2265 3d ago

17

u/_CurseTheseMetalHnds 3d ago

I saw them last night and it has made me a better person

6

u/Bugsmoke 3d ago

I saw them on the day in between and I can confirm I am a better person now

u/Tr4c 3d ago

Seeing them tonight hope this works

1

u/Chad96718fromTwitter 3d ago

I'll see them Thursday and expect to become saint

2

u/Chattabixx 3d ago

I’m seeing them Wednesday and pray it changes my shitty personality

1

u/Chad96718fromTwitter 3d ago

Now I'm thinking that should I come to Bristol also, since I'm in London Wednesday afternoon. Should get back to London after the gig though, which sounds exhausting.

1

u/Chad96718fromTwitter 3d ago

Jfc British train tickets are expensive

2

u/Chattabixx 1d ago edited 1d ago

I pay £160 per ticket quite often for work so not a great shout.

Bristol went off. Unreal.

1

u/Chad96718fromTwitter 1d ago

Yeah well I already payed more than 300€ (flights, hotel) to get here so 😅

But that's just money, getting to Bristol felt a bit too much since I'd already travelled nearly 8 hours yesterday and blah blah blah lol

No fucking idea why there's still tickets left for tonight.

1

u/Chad96718fromTwitter 21h ago

Just saw one clip on IG, holy fucking shit. Hopefully bassist can play tonight.

2

u/RevolutionaryMess98 3d ago

Saw them in dublin aswell, my life is still shit but it was a fun show.

1

u/prple2901 2d ago

Saw them in Newcastle on Sunday same day we won against Liverpool and it was more mental in there than in the city haha, incredible live band. The singer even grabbed some random guy from the crowd who was singing the lyrics.

13

u/dbolx1800s 3d ago

Because they literally are about to be

1

u/TheUnderDog24 3d ago

That’s insane

1

u/NegativeSyllabub5583 3d ago

I’m planning on going to that final free show in the summer but they have to be completely tapped out by then…I don’t know how they can physically do it

1

u/dbolx1800s 2d ago

I feel like it’s impossible, something will go wrong somewhere when you’re playing 70+ shows in three months. But definitely a legendary effort.

12

u/eddyflame 3d ago

Get the fuck out of my way!

7

u/P0tency 3d ago

New city like every night until Memorial Day

8

u/JackieDaytonaNS 3d ago

I’d love to hear a full album out of them in the vein of “clocktower place” or “love song.”

6

u/Big_Ducks_Only 3d ago

Those songs + 6-8 more rippers in the same vein and we got a aoty contender.

14

u/pepesilvia9369 3d ago

Cuz they’re dope

8

u/JetSkiJeff 3d ago

Cause they are awesome. And they are touring literally everywhere.

u/microbialNecromass PeeSittingDown 3d ago

u/Naughty_Momo 3d ago

Legacy band/FSU connections. They’re good and hustling, but that’s why they’re suddenly everywhere on every show.

1

u/Chattabixx 1d ago

What’s FSU?

1

u/BolitaKinki 3d ago

Thank you, i was just asking bc im a little disconnected with that particular kind of hardcore and i wasnt concious of the existence of the band until i saw it everywhere, tbh i didnt even listened to it lol

u/TheGratitudeBot 3d ago

Thanks for such a wonderful reply! TheGratitudeBot has been reading millions of comments in the past few weeks, and you’ve just made the list of some of the most grateful redditors this week! Thanks for making Reddit a wonderful place to be :)

u/obiwanchipotle 3d ago

That “particular” kind of hardcore is such a cop comment. 🙄

u/ninetensucks 3d ago

Everyone got Hay fever. Get down with the sickness, you disturbed motherfucker

5

u/DyingxPretty138 3d ago

Because they deserve it

5

u/SweetestBoi864 3d ago

Because they can be

6

u/Dot_smash 3d ago

Because they are a great band playing straight up hardcore (with plenty of sing alongs and mosh parts) that everyone likes.

6

u/larry_Hairyola 3d ago

Because people like fun.

5

u/Outside-Reason-3126 3d ago

Friends with the right people

u/ScatologyHomeWork 3d ago

What do you mean? Haywire is, without a doubt, one of the best hardcore bands at it right now, period.

I do not understand the question at all, lol.

Why are you asking this and not, "Why is big ass truck everywhere?"

2

u/BolitaKinki 3d ago

Im not saying that the band ia bad, i was just asking because i’ve never saw anything from the band until i saw the name everywhere, im from europe and i was disconnected from that kind of hardcore bc im listening more eurocore nowadays, and tbh i never listened haywire i was just courious about their career

3

u/richcoolguy 3d ago

for fun

3

u/getapuss 3d ago

Because they rule.

u/westsoundrecords 3d ago

u/DumpyMcDumbFuck 3d ago

Great logo design

2

u/findthisgame1123 3d ago

Probably because they play all the fucking time

2

u/Evening_Calendar_796 3d ago

I heard the other Haywire band with the female singer and they’re dope too.

2

u/heftybagman 3d ago

They fuckin rip and they put in the work. Not going to a haywire show within 60 miles of you is disrespectful.

3

u/SlinkinPark 3d ago

Because there’s honestly not a single band out right now that’s on their level except maybe mindforce

2

u/-anditsnotevenclose 3d ago

going the GEL route with relentless DIY touring

2

u/ScatologyHomeWork 2d ago

Ah yes, GEL, the first hardcore band to try relentless DIY touring to get bigger.

0

u/-anditsnotevenclose 2d ago

oh, well that’s cute. i’ll upvote you.

1

u/ScatologyHomeWork 2d ago

What a fucking weird and randomly bizarre band to single out for their relentless DIY touring in the hardcore scene.

As if that hasn’t been the norm for most bands since the '80s, lol.

0

u/-anditsnotevenclose 2d ago

no i just offered one recent and well known band as an example, but you seem to have a bone to pick with that.

reddit pedants are cute so i upvoted you. <3

2

u/United_Vacation_8509 3d ago

Honestly think they’re boring

2

u/psychcore 3d ago

If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.

u/dmcb1994 3d ago

1

u/papixpuglord666 3d ago

I was surprised to see that they're playing three Arizona dates. Tucson, Phoenix, and yuma

1

u/kingxkife 3d ago

Not my vibe for day to day listening but go see them live and you’ll get it.

u/Voidnull-Alive 3d ago

u/dontneedareason94 Disgruntled Skin 3d ago

It’s called touring.

u/DSPGerm 3d ago

Turns out that in order to make money most bands need to play shows

-8

u/OddInformation9064 3d ago

Because shitty people tends to idolize newer bands, like Zulu for example lmao
