Incendiary - Thousand Mile Stare

Vinyl LP pressing 2017 album from the Long Island-based hardcore band. Since the earliest days of hardcore, New York City has always been an epicenter for the genre. A few miles east, however, Long Island played host to a burgeoning and influential scene all their own. Rather than living in the shadow of their urban counterparts, Long Island hardcore bands took elements of the classic NYHC sound and injected their own sense of style into the music. It's in this tradition that a band like Incendiary exists in 2017. In the Fall of 2016, they entered Graphic Nature Audio with renowned producer Will Putney (Every Time I Die, The Acacia Strain) and began working on this record. The result, entitled Thousand Mile Stare, permeates with the strongest elements that have put Incendiary among the best bands in hardcore, yet masterfully avoids a retread of old ideas. The songs sound urgent and relevant, embodying the troubled times during which they were created. These are anthems of sorrow but also dissent, all weaved into one devastating collection.
