After nearly six years Strength to Endure made a decision to end. We are all still best friends and more than that we are all family. We are all extremely grateful for all the good times, and all the good friends we have made over the years. We thank anyone who has ever helped us out with a show, helped us out with a floor to sleep on, bought a cd, or just enjoyed listening to our music. This is not the end for music from us. Richard will be pursuing deathmetal back home in Arizona, and Bobby, Nathan, and Bo have started a new project in Seattle called SHEDIM with two other guitar players. The new project will be a continuation of our message and political ideas, but will be more of a mix of hardcore, crust, and D beat music. The music we made in Strength will always be extremely important to all of us. The music and the memories will always be inside of our souls. From all of us, thank you.
Hardcore metal band formed in Flagstaff, Arizona out of childhood friends that shared a common love for music, message and mosh. The band's history reaches back too far and intertwines with so many lives and events that the story could not be told in just a few brief paragraphs. Amongst other things, the ones that are close with us and that are loved remain important always and forever. Pauly and Turtle, you are Strengh to Endure forever!
This is a band that is more focused on the future. Not just the band's future, but the future of the individuals within the band. A fair bit of strong words are often used as logos or slang within Hardcore. Words like, Honor, Respect, etc. and so on. Now the question is begged, does anyone in Hardcore actually know what these words mean, and how to conduct themselves with these qualities?
Strength to Endure is a band that not only implores Honor, and Respect, but also Dignity, Understanding, Humility, and above all else, true Compassion for all.
Our hope is that we are connecting with human beings out there, that are trying their absolute hardest to conduct themselves with a positive mindset, against total opposition, against overwhelming odds, and that are willingly to evolve themselves into better people. Don't let society influence and change you. Change and influence your society.
