New Hardcore Band Spotlight: Identity Crisis

Band: Identity Crisis
From: Sartell, Minnesota


Their formation story:
"We formed in July of 2022. We started as just two of us writing stuff in the basement which we were going to turn into an EP, but it never got released. We then added a third member, and went through some lineup changes until we got to our 4-piece lineup right now, which came together in February of this year."

Their sound in their own words:
"We play nice and fast hardcore. We like a lot of stuff, from Dischord and Youth Crew bands, Negative Approach and Deep Wound, to the early Turnstile EPs, Title Fight, and DRAIN."

Latest release info:
"In December 2022, we put out some of our songs on our album, No More Time. We recorded it in our friend's basement and he did the mixing for us. all the songs were written in between June and November of 2022, and we’re happy with the songs for being our first release."

Future plans:
"Right now we’re working on an EP that we’re super happy with. The songs are a lot more matured, have more interesting structures, and are all around have a much more unique sound. I think with this EP we managed to blend everyone’s preferred styles and ideas into it much more than on No More Time. Super excited for everyone to hear it."

What other bands from their region should we check out?
"Valeska Suratt, xAOGCx, OUT4BLOOD, and Bad Supremacy are all super-sick bands from the area that everyone should check out. There’s probably 50 other bands we could recommend, though. The Twin Cities scene is amazing."
