Made up of veterans of the New England hardcore scene, Connecticut’s band is delivering short songs packed with aggression. Upcoming shows supporting Blood For Blood, Risk.

Taking influence from acts such as Blood For Blood, Death Threat, Agnostic Front, they released their relentless debut ‘My Friends, Your Enemies’ EP in 2024. The hardcore / oi band quickly found themselves playing shows alongside Haywire, Pain of Truth, Strife, and signing with upstate New York label Heroes & Martyrs. The band unleash two new tracks. A clobbering instrumental, ‘The Intimidator’ does exactly what its name says to get you riled up. ‘Hell Is Empty’ bursts with dynamic riffs and assertive vocals addressing the ongoing debate of friend or foe. Vocalist Mike expands on ‘Hell Is Empty’:

“It is a song we played the first time at For The Children in Boston last December. Sonically, it reminds me of the CT style with a Black My Heart type assbeater of a break in the middle of the song. Lyrically the beginning of this song is about the friendships we all have, and the unbreakable bond of those friendships. Andreas wrote and sang the second part of the song, and that’s where the lyrical theme switches. The back half of the song is about those no longer deserving of your time. Ended friendships, betrayal, lying, cheating, all the the stuff Death Threat wrote about better than anyone. Hopefully this holds up to that standard.”

This weekend Soulless has a run of shows alongside Risk and Mankind. In November, the band will head out on a northeast run supporting Blood For Blood, Skinhead and more. Full list of tour dates below.
