ONTARIO HARDCORE?

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Mace, Don’t Hide It (2025)
Cassette
T Shirt

One of my most anticipated bands to see this summer was Mace. To my ears, they really made great use of the metallic beatdown sound that’s so prevalent today. As on this EP, the heavy instrumentation with its brutal moments backing some really gnarly vocals, made for such a visceral experience that fires off all nerves from head to toe; the lyrics adding more fuel to an already blazing fire. And there’s a tinge of horror to their aesthetic as well, whether it’s the music, cover art, or shirt design, that just hits deeper subconsciously.

They’re a band that must be experienced live, I’m convinced that they’ve sonically restructured my skull.

Fav track: Clarity. Sharp, direct, and punchy.

MADBALL return to Toronto, August 19th!

Are they the greatest hardcore act of all time? They just might be. Certainly among the most influential.

MADBALL started as a mere AGNOSTIC FRONT side project. Roger's younger brother getting on stage to bang out AF songs, eventually delivering the 'Ball of Destruction" EP - putting a fresh new spin on the classics for the second wave of NYHC. And then 'Droppin' Many Suckas' - an EP that effectively, once again, reinvented the NYHC sound, set off a new era and lyrically delivered an entirely new swagger. I mean, is 'One Voice' a MADBALL LP?

'Set it Off,' 'Demonstrating My Style,' 'Look My Way,' 'Hold It Down,' - when we talk about HARDCORE in 2026, we are largely talking about hardcore as MADBALL rewrote it. As it goes, 'Hardcore is NYHC now' and NYHC is MADBALL. To say we're honoured is an understatement.

Of course, they arrive with the modern NYHC torchbearers COMBUST - who while they might be stylistically more in debt to the likes of THE ICEMEN and DYNAMO, spiritually, they worship at the MADBALL alter because of course they do.

They're gonna be joined by Southern Ontario's own BFD and MACE on local support today. Activation of the pit is mandatory.

On Sale Now! Less than a month away!
