Brief:
In 2019, Orange County, California Punk and Hardcore institution, IGNITE were a band at a crossroads. Over 25 years, IGNITE had taken their hardcore foundations and not merely turned them into the sound of a band that has refused to be categorized but had become a worldwide force in their own right. With five albums behind them including 2006’s breakout, Our Darkest Days and 2016’s A War Against You (which entered the German album charts at #6) as well as countless tours through Europe, North America, Australia, South America and the Far East, the core of the band: bassist Brett Rasmussen, guitarists Nik Hill and Kevin Kilkenny and drummer Craig Anderson found themselves in search of a new voice. They found themselves without a singer.
IGNITE’s self-titled album is the moment where they reconcile themselves with their history. With a new vocalist up front and a new album in hand, IGNITE are ready to get back to work!

Comments:
Ignite is a new work of the first rank, a bit less catchy than its predecessor. IGNITE’s self-titled album doesn’t disappoint.
