OUTBREAK
"Failure" CD
We've always been a live band, so it's frustrating to go into
the studio and try and capture the same energy as a live show;
Failure" is by far the closest we've come to capturing that
energy" says vocalist Ryan O'Connor. Sixteen brand new songs
make up the band's debut full-length and in true hardcore/punk
fashion the record clocks in at a hair over twenty minutes. Though
this is the bands first full-length, in their five year existence
they've managed to release two EPs and become true road warriors,
playing hundreds of shows in thirteen countries, including tours
with everyone from Agnostic Front to Comeback Kid. The band has
also received a noteworthy amount of press, including interviews
in AMP Magazine and a feature as one of the fifteen "Hardcore
Bands To Know" in the highly publicized Alternative Press.
All the while their average age is barely out of the teens. Using
the aforementioned as fuel for motivation, Outbreak entered The
Outpost with Producer Jim Siegel, who helped craft the self-proclaimed
live band's first full- length. The group's dedication and DIY
work ethic showcase that "Failure" is a perfect example
of the natural progression a band can endure after mulitple previous
efforts and years on end spent on the road. Outbreak has always
walked the fence of hardcore and punk rock, but finding an appropriate
genre is a task they've never worried about. with a true focus
on creating the music that they love, not to please the critics.
