Ignite

In the organizer's words:

IGNITE are back - louder, angrier and stronger than ever! After years of upheaval and with new frontman Eli Santana on board, the hardcore veterans from Orange County have delivered their most energetic album to date. With brute force and razor-sharp hooks, IGNITE build a bridge between their hardcore roots and a new, melodic sensibility.

The new record is bursting with power: tracks like the uncompromising opener "Anti-Complicity-Anthem" fire off a high-speed barrage of anger and catchiness. But the melancholy, political undertones of songs like "The River" or the thoughtful "Let The Beggars Beg" also show the band's versatility.

In Eli Santana, IGNITE has not only found a new singer, but a voice that brings a breath of fresh air while still retaining the classic IGNITE sound. "He has the power, the voice and the same unbridled passion as we do," says bassist Brett Rasmussen.

IGNITE have proven that they can not only survive, but thrive in chaos. The band is ready to take the world's stages again - full of rage, energy and heart. Get ready: IGNITE are back, and they have a hell of a lot to say!
