Long Island Punk
Armed with crushing metallic riffs, instantly both fresh and familiar, Incendiary populate each of their four full-length albums with irresistibly energized rhythms and adrenalized urgency. Change The Way You Think About Pain is their leanest and unapologetically meanest yet. The quintet weaned on the Long Island, New York, hardcore scene have more to say than ever. Sharply biting and insightful lyrics sit atop blunt metalcore in a perfect soundtrack to throw a brick through a window. Incendiary delivers a sound of its own, mixing classic passion and modern power. The band cites East Coast hardcore heroes like Vision Of Disorder, 108, and Glassjaw as part of Incendiary’s formative DNA. Less familiar listeners might liken them to a very heavy Rage Against The Machine. Will Putney (Knocked Loose, Every Time I Die, Vein.fm) produced both Change The Way You Think About Pain and Thousand Mile Stare, which cracked Billboard’s Hard Music Top 10. But Incendiary measures success in different terms: impact, community, relationships, and discourse. The ethos goes back to the interconnected scene built on DIY shows, fanzines, and 7” records. Onstage pileups, innumerable stage dives, and impassioned scream-alongs follow Incendiary wherever they turn up, all of it rooted in their urgent, authentic, and crushingly heavy songs. This is uncompromising protest music.
