COMEBACK KID are an undeniable staple of the hardcore community. It’s been 11 years since their debut album and with the release of their fifth record, Die Knowing, earlier in 2014, the Canadian quintet are gearing up to bring their new stuff back to Australia this October for their ever growing legion of fans.
Taking influence from their contemporaries in the scene as well as the 90’s skater punks and the more melodic acts out there, Comeback Kid have created a sound all their own within the often times cookie cutter hardcore genre. Experimenting with and incorporating new musical elements from beyond the confines of modern hardcore has stood them apart from everyone else.
It’s the bands intensity and attitude on the stage that really connects with their fans however, conveying raw emotion and a genuine love for what they do. Vocalist Andrew Neufeld couldn’t have said it any better “It’s a good feeling that despite how long we’ve been doing this, we can still get so collectively excited about our music. We love doing this. There’s no better feeling for any of us than being in a room, losing our minds, and watching others lose their minds with us.”
