Just in time for arguably one of the biggest punk festivals on the East Coast (I’m talking about New York’s Alright, not Damaged City), California’s Stoic Violence have released their new Chained 12″ via Deranged. This fucker rages, so fans of softer melodic-punk, two words that arguably shouldn’t go together, this will not compute. But for those of you who grew up on a staple of nihilistic hardcore punk, settle in… you’re in for the long haul. Stream it in full below, and look for them on the road through the end of April at the dates below.
