The Effort are a straight edge hardcore band that strives for change
within themselves as well as the world around them. Formed in 2006, the
Effort play a style of Hardcore that blends the youth crew sound of Bostons'
late '90s with the social conscious lyrics of bands from the early to mid 90's
hardcore scene.
The Effort carry on the idea that hardcore is more than music, delving into
issues beyond the surface to make their music something more relevant than a
background track to mosh to. Taking cues from the social/political 90's hardcore
bands like Boy Sets Fire, Trial and Inside Out, The Effort feels it's important
to be aware of what this world has to offer and what it threatens to take away.
In such a short time, The Effort have accomplished a lot. With two Eps and a
full length under their belts they have gained respect and a strong following
in the Hardcore community. Nothing comes easy for a hardcore band, no matter
who you are, The Effort have earned everything that has come their way by
touring extensively in support of their releases throughout the US and
Europe.
The Effort promise 2009 to be a big year with plans for US and
European Tours before entering the studio to record their second full
length to be released on Panic Records. The Effort are more than excited
about their new songs and believe that it will be their strongest release
to date. If you're already familiar with The Effort, you know this will be a
tall order to fill. If you're not familiar, believe that The Effort will
become one of modern hardcores most important bands.
