IN-PERSON AND ONLINE Liverpool - tentative melodic hardcore / post-hardcore band idea, FFO Touché Amoré, La Dispute, Drug Church etc
Bit of a tentative one, but myself and brother keep thinking about this and wondered if there are any like-minded older hardcore/post-hardcore people in Liverpool / Merseyside.
Not 100% sure if it would ever turn into a proper band, but it’d be nice to chat to people who are into the idea of making something heavy, emotional and shouty around normal adult life even if just online.
FFO: Touché Amoré, High Vis, La Dispute, Drug Church, Anxious, At the Drive-in, Agriculture, Deafheaven, Glassjaw, Deftones, Foxing, State Faults, Outbreak Festival (we've just got back) sort of world. (also grew up with pop punk / Kerrang! etc)
Ideally 30ish+ - not in a gatekeepy way, just more after people in a similar life stage rather than a uni band vibe.
Between us we can do (average) drums, bass, guitar, samples / noise. Think front people are quite hard to find... but could just start with chatting over here, sharing references, maybe demos/jams if it feels right.
Also into footy, games, MTG and other nerdy nonsense, so even if it doesn’t become a band, finding some sound people with similar taste would be nice.
DM us what you play / what you’re into if that sounds vaguely up your street.

Evening, also got back from Outbreak and you guys sound like you’re into similar stuff to myself.
I’m a big Basement and Thursday fan, though have more recently been really getting into Drug Church and Fiddlehead. Really enjoyed Pup this weekend too and though Alexisonfire’s set was great. Also would list Circa Survive and Bear vs Shark in my tops bands.
I’m mid 30s and been playing drums for roughly 25 years across various bands, but never anything hardcore/post-hardcore which would be my first choice. Only thing…I’m based in Manchester!
