About Me

so the name is strange, we get that. lawyers is a band with political lyrics... a lawyer interprets law, so in a way our name is a mission statement to get you to understand your rights and pay attention to the government that is cheating you. oh and dance a little in the meantime.lawyers is a political hardcore band launched in an era of bands that don't seem to care about the current political state of our lives with vocals about the current regime and other political and social commentary. singing about girls and breaking up just doesn't seem relevant anymore. hardcore in the past always had a message.over old and new school guitar riffs and punishing breakdowns, there's something for every part of hardcore with influences ranging from snapcase and refused to the bled, converge and american nightmare / give up the ghost.formed by mark elhert (drums) and jon boucher (guitar) out of the ashes of a previous band and joined later by matt wolf on vocals and dan dwyer on bass, lawyers is ready to tear up your scene and convince you to vote too.
