Boysetsfire While A Nation Sleeps

Hardcore pioneers Boysetsfire are back with a bang, seven years after their groundbreaking album “Misery Index – Notes From The Plague Years”. With a new record, their own label and new shows – the departure from the past, coupled with a fervent inner drive, makes the band’s new album “While A Nation Sleeps…” perhaps the most important hardcore release of the year.

Boysetsfire has been a driving force in the hardcore scene since 1994, achieving the fine balance between furious old-school hardcore and melodic punk rock hooks like no other band to date.

“While A Nation Sleeps...” represents one step back for the band as well as two steps forward. Boysetsfire continues to be affected by their tumultuous experiences with major labels, which, despite launching the US five-piece on the global stage with the 2003 album “Tomorrow Come Today”, also shed light on the profit-driven nature of multinational recording companies.
