Out For Blood, Vol. 2

Lion City Hardcore is the hardcore punk movement rooted in Singapore (the “Lion City”), marked by breakneck tempos, barked or gang‑shouted vocals, thick, down‑picked riffs, and emphatic, mosh‑ready breakdowns. Lyrically it blends personal resolve and straight‑edge ethics with scene solidarity and sharp social commentary. The sound sits at the crossroads of classic U.S. hardcore, 90s metallic hardcore, and Southeast Asia’s tightly knit DIY show culture, producing a style that feels both globally conversant and unmistakably Singaporean. Recent scene documents and showcases highlight a spectrum from youth‑crew energy to beatdown heft, underscoring the scene’s breadth and resilience.
