Japanese hardcore band Loyal To The Grave announce Rectitude EP on Triple B Records

Share pummeling new single “Striving Higher”

STREAM: “Striving Higher”

Long running Japanese hardcore band Loyal To The Grave return with their first new music in seven years with the EP, Rectitude. The five track release will drop May 17th on Triple B Records worldwide and Retribute Records in Japan. Today the band share single “Striving Higher,” a pummeling number exemplifying the metallic hardcore sound the band has been unleashing since 1998. Creative riffs and deep vocals meet a stomp-worthy breakdown, a precursor to the intensity found across the EP.

Rectitude was recorded by Devu at DevuRecordingStudio and Gaku Taura, mixed by Taylor Young at The Pit, and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. This marks the Tokyo-based band’s fourteenth release and some of their hardest hitting music yet.

Loyal To The Grave is Koba – Vocals, Hiro – Guitar, Hiroyuki – Guitar, Takashi – Bass, and Kairi – Drums.
