Another Call 02:23
GVA HXC Straight from the lockdown 2020 Let’s go motherfuckers This is another call for the well known unity Maybe it doesn’t mean a single thing to you But to be honest In my own terms It means everything to me Not only a selected few can do this right It’s up to you to keep it tight Ain’t no time to rest Still repin’ the family Maybe it doesn’t mean a single thing to you But to be honest In other terms It means everything to me Fuck the fame we’ll stay the same

React:Revolt 02:25
Can’t you feel that we’re all dying Can’t you see that the world has splited long time ago Money issues constantly People sleeping in the streets Is that being free? To survive this we only got one way to stay real Brotherhood strong friendships, and cut our useless needs Foolish thoughts of rapture can only create imminent disaster that we all have to face Well here we are And if we don’t fight now, we won’t fight ever again Revolt yourself! Worthless notes of paper to ignite a human body Took out our reason and our dignity Decades of torments at its peak Unity and perseverance will prevail They want us to get socially integrated but they keep us seperated Let’s show them they’re fucking wrong Together we are stronger than all the mecenes Corrupted press under silence and governements keeping us asleep Transhumanism is at the door and time is passing by We need to react! We need to wake up! Wake the fuck up! Move the fuck up! We need to cut some heads before we get fucked

intro: Vinnie Stigma (Agnostic Front) Stayin’on tracks like an ol’train running Never betraying, never compromising Keepin’it straight when others starts fading No fear to spit it loud and clear Trust for our people Faith for our future Truth till the day we die No short-cut to the graveyard That’s the way we ride Never forget about integrity Never forget about integrity Time to prove your commitment What has been said reflect it in your actions, Stay true to your scene Stay true to your friends Talk the talk, but walk the walk Integrity will never be an option You’ve got to keep your heart straight Dedicated to the values you’ve been preaching around Loyal to our people Honest in our feelings Real till the day we die No other ways to live this life Dedicated since day one Time to prove your commitment What has been said reflect it in your actions Stay true to your scene Stay true to your friends Moving our heads since the first waves of sound Keepin’ it real for our daughter and sons No better way to organise our actions Rather stay down than faking any motion Living this way till we’re under the ground No compromise to the past engagements Being the frontline, camping on our positions Only one word to describe our commitment DE-DI-CA-TION Code of Conduct

feat. Piloophaz (Skyzominus) Since the dawn of time Man has always known How to take advantage of anyone Misusing his own resources From petty theft to biggest scams From breach of trust, to abuse of power From corruption to tyranny Everything is good to sneak your way in this living hell No matter how much blood needs to be spilled Going so far as to kill and realise, that society brought you there Leaving you no chance to set you free Free! Des mâles dominants mercantiles addictes aux quantiques, au nom du père au nom du fric, gardent l’esclavage authentique Ils ont des fils à qui ils dictent, la prédation comme seule éthique, ils créent le stress mais par abnégation vendent des anxiolytiques Witnesses of your own decline Le litige est politique, économique, culturel et social Ecologique, une crise humanitaire globale, leur logique capitaliste mérite un rejet total Résistance, indépendance, unité, comptez vos balles Music industry is the same shit, no empathy, just profit Old same soundin' shit, poppin' everywhere Corporate minds and sell out suckin' any dick Avant que tu diss: c’est dit, j’ai des problèmes de riche et je pousse le vice à t’en parler sur de la musique de niche Je me fiche, en cas d’apocalypse de ton discours de miss regarde The Mist On veut savoir comment tu gères ta paire de miches Y’a pas de salut ou de liberté si ça oppresse dans toutes les strates sur les photos de classe, les luttes ressortent au bout de l’estrade L’escouade passe avant les squales qui aiment les strass Être un bon, c’est comme au basket ball, y’a pas que les stats Non, y’a pas que les stats fils, Russel Westbrook, il gagnera jamais le titre Straight uppercut to this mainstream shit Wanna things done right Do them by yourself Independant forever Keep your head up and straight And take the control of your life That's how we fight Straight up from our hearts

Foundations 03:28
By building the foundations Anthems of our youth They were the precursors Our true inspiration Nothing but love For the ones who began Teached us values Laid the foundations True dedication Mix of generations Old school, new school, we just don’t give a fuck Gathering families worldwide Same passion same sweat, same blood They gave respect Now they get it back Solid promise to all these personnal acts And to honour these oaths, these oaths they pledged Never push you over, over the edge Foundations For them we would do it without a moment’s hesitation Melting multiple lines was a success Much respect to the maturity of our elders For them we would do it, without hesitation Foundations

Corrupted Empires (free) 03:51
feat. Melvin (2 y.o.) Slaves got no forces that could destroy the elite Sadly maintaining the power of the empire Leading us to luxury and privilege Over poverty and servitude Establishing substancial institutions Creating totalitarianism and tyranny Supporting chaos and lies Refuting veracity Denying order and truth Controling reality Society allows theft for easy wealth Creating scavengers and mercenaries In order to succeed in this corrupted empire They make profit from the slavery of the weakest Democracy based on privilege increasing corporations profits Luxury through capitalism No truth no justice no peace no love No truth! No justice! No peace! No love! Tired of your lies Looking for the truth An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth Corrupted empires Since the beginning of time But one day it will fall And we won’t fuck around

about

What about "CONVENTIONS"?

Hardcore, both as a musical genre and as part of the wider punk legacy, has carried an inherent set of musical and ideological conventions since its inception in the early 1980's.

Investigating its constitutive values and ethics reveal that these ideological conventions could be labelled under seven different registers, which provide the topics of the seven songs written for this album.

With the will to spread the message and the ethos of our subculture, we have re-interpreted its musical codes with the very best of our musical abilities.

We deeply hope that these compositions will bring curiosity to the people unfamiliar with these conventions, but also that they will express our commitment to the scene and the worldwide hardcore community.

HXC LIVES!
