In an earlier time, I didn’t have much care in the world
My days were only for myself and fun, but this was before
Opened my eyes beyond all that I knew and what I saw made me wish I hadn’t
Power of money filling nations with pain
and hatred filling my brown people with rage
I can’t keep walking with blood up to my ankles
Silence will see all of it go on, I can’t stay silent
Amidst the storm, I barely heard a voice
Looked through the cracks and I saw a light
Daring to act beyond music, beyond thoughts
Daring to reach a choice for tomorrow and making it now
Heard something through the walls
The cry of the people, their strength, their song
Billions of voices
I can’t stay silent to this, no matter the consequence
Silence will see all of it go on
Listen to the voice through these walls

A standout full-length debut in what has been an incredible year for hardcore. Ecostrike play a incendiary, impassioned brand of straight edge metallic hardcore that recalls One Truth-era Strife and early Earth Crisis, but are far from being a simple retread of 90’s past. One of the year’s best releases. Busty Loads
Northeast straight-edge hardcore taken to the cathartic, infectious extreme; a fiery EP fueled by spite, spirit, and sick riffs. Bandcamp New & Notable May 24, 2023
