No Love Lost - ProfilesArchive

About Me

Brand new hardcore-punk band straight out of Buffalo, New York. With resumes forming a veritable list of who's-who-among-young-Western-New-York-bands, former members of Bourgade, Can't Win Em All, The Scurvy Knaves, Everybody Overboard, and The Line Dance Massacre joined forces to create band that would help restore a sense of FUN and ENERGY to the Buffalo hardcore scene. No Love Lost's songs put a hopeful spin on timeless topics such as friendship, betrayal, hope, and persistence. Riding the wings of the positive revolution taking place within their local scene, No Love Lost is quickly on their way to becoming one of Western New York's favorite new hardcore acts.
Sometimes we play refused covers.

"...There's no gimmicks and no bullshit when it comes to No Love Lost. Seeing them play is pure adrenaline, anger and desperation straight from the heart. There's also no tough-guy thuggery or petty drama that plagues so many scenes. Everything this band stands for is finding something positive for yourself and your friends amidst this fucked up world. The singer even spoke out against those in the hardcore scene who poke fun at others for not wearing the 'right shirt' or doing the 'right dance moves,' stating that this behavior goes against everything hardcore stands for. Hearing that, reminded me why I got into hardcore in the first place. The band was also able to play at their full capacity of energy, despite the limited space in the basement... So how is their CD? Nothing short of amazing of course. These six tracks are a chalk full of floor-punching hardcore goodness. The influences are obvious, ranging from Have Heart, Verse, Comeback Kid and Bane, whilst retaining a unique quality that can only exist when it comes straight from the heart. They play what they want unapologetically and have a fun time doing it. Some people might call it generic, but they're not in this to be the cool kids who found something new. The lyrics are uplifting and inspiring, calling out for a positive, communal vibe and yearning to look ahead and let the past be the past... " - Veggie Burger, Torches and Tragedies
