Combust, Blow Your Brains Out & Imposter Release New Split United Nations

Three hardcore bands come together for a new collaborative project titled United Nations EP. The release gathers artists from New York, Tokyo, and Brighton to reinterpret the genre with fresh perspectives. This split showcases how diverse approaches to hardcore can coexist within a unified vision.

United Nations EP: A Global Hardcore Collaboration

The United Nations EP brings together three distinct hardcore acts—Combust from New York, Blow Your Brains Out from Tokyo, and Imposter based in Brighton—to create a cohesive yet varied collection. Each band draws from the New York hardcore blueprint of the late 1980s and early 1990s while adding their own regional flavor to the mix.

Creative Vision and Track Selection

Combust delivers the standout track S4TC, noted as an absolute beast that maintains the genre’s signature stomp. Blow Your Brains Out contributes their lead single Our Own Breed, featuring guest vocals from Imposter frontman Rory O’Neill. The collective effort demonstrates how hardcore artists can innovate while preserving core elements of speed and intensity.

Release Details and Context

The United Nations split was made available on Streets Of Hate and is not connected to Geoff Rickly’s side project of the same name. The release emphasizes genuine artistic collaboration rather than commercial branding, highlighting the community-driven nature of modern hardcore music.
