Artist description Hailing from the damp cold streets of Erie Pennsylvania xRETALIATORY STRIKEx is a STRAIGHT EDGE HARDCORE band. Playing hundreds of shows around the PA/OH area with the intent of bringing REAL hardcore back to a scene that's full of fucking fashion and hundreds of bad emo and shitty metal ripoff bands (LEAVE THE HALL). When no-one gave a shit about the erie hardcore scene, xRSx were the ones out there trying to re-build it, Whenever being straight edge wasn't the "cool" thing to do, xRSx were the one being it. Playing to either 5 kids or 1000 kids xRSx has never compromised their style and message at any point in time. Always remaining true to hardcore scene. If your looking for another emo, or metalcore band. Your looking in the wrong place. GET OUT
