SoCal hardcore new jacks Forced Order are comprised of dudes from Twitching Tongues, Disgrace and Soul Search, but their aesthetic is strictly skull-cracking old-school, emulating the likes of veteran firebrands Integrity and Ringworm. Their debut LP Vanished Crusade will drop via hxc standard-bearers Revelation on August 7 (preorder here), and the vinyl’s particularly cool (500 being pressed on Coke Bottle Clear and 1,200 on Clear Gold), but you can hear the whole shebang below right now (along with tour dates)!
