HARDCORE HOBBITS
With an all out attack that no one can rival, headcount no one dares challenge and a message no one can resist, prepare for the xLxOxTxRx. Four members strong, xLxOxTxRx heils from the utopian land of The Shire, where your friends are your family, IBC root beer replaces Budweiser, a church called Titheme houses a service full of hardcore hobbits, Thanksgiving is celebrated with a ThanksVegan feast and C-lo gets rolled in exchange for tattoos.
xLxOxTxRx opened the floodgates in summer of 2002 after releasing their five-song demo, "HARDCORE HOBBITS" in 2003. The energy of their live performance and brutal musical style has put them at the forefront of the already booming So-Cal hardcore scene. Blending the sounds of At the Gates, Disembodied, and Hatebreed with lyrics that mirror their philosophy of positive living and heart-felt scene experience, their anthems are undeniably fierce, and so is their vision. This band is on a warpath to mark their place in the world. They bring a vast collective of musicianship to create a wall of sound that will leave you ravaged yet uplifted.
xLxOxTxRx kicked off summer 2006 by recording their debut Victory Records release at Trax East Studios in May after playing the New England Metal and Hardcore Fest in Worchester, MA. Their highly anticipated cd “GONDOR GRIND†hits streets in February ’07.
