This would probably considered melodic hardcore. It's not really the scream in your face hardcore, but then it's not really the, "we're really a pop punk band, but it's cool to be melodic hardcore" hardcore either. Some of the guitar work would be considered hardcore, especially with the breakdowns they do. Yet this doesn't really seem to be a band that you can just classify and put in a box. Overall you can tell these guys are talented, yet on the other hand there really isn't anything that helps them stand out either. They pretty much just play quality hard hitting rock with hardcore tendencies.

Decapolis 2000Reviewed by ConradCreative Hardcore. This band is doing a pretty good job at being a hardcore band. They try to be creative with their beats, rhythms and guitar parts. They throw in a couple metal guitars here and there, along with some emo chords once and a while too. The vocals are nice and strong. As far as the songs go - they're decent. While I'm too big on hardcore I do appreciate creativity and song…Similar sounding releases
