Energy, creativity and familiarity— the most important elements and ingredients to writing hardcore music, and it seems CROSS ME has that much very well understood. Formed in early 2013 and hailing from Milwaukee, WI, CROSS ME helps prove to us why the Midwest is one of the latest hardcore hotbeds.

Paid In Full was recorded at Howl Street Recordings in Milwaukee with Shane Hochstetler (ENABLER, EXPIRE, FOCUSED MINDS) in March 2014, and with an average band member age of only 20, impressive is the keyword here. While obvious influences are drawn from New York hardcore both old and new (THE ICEMEN, MADBALL, BACKTRACK), CROSS ME also mix things up and keep it interesting with an array of hooks and tempo changes that invite fans of thrash/crossover as well.

Having toured with TAKE OFFENSE, EXPIRE and BENT LIFE in early 2014 as well as having shared the stage with BITTER END, HARM’S WAY and a slew of many other recognizable bands, expect to see and hear more from this Midwestern powerhouse.
