Serve

**Serve** is a ferocious hardcore/punk force hailing from Oakland, California, known for blistering live shows and unflinching political commentary. Formed in 2016, the band channels raw energy through a chaotic blend of crust punk, d-beat, and metallic hardcore, with vocalist Will Killingsworth (also of Ampere) delivering searing critiques of oppression, inequality, and societal collapse. Their discography—including pulverizing releases like *Deeper Into The Wound* and *Life Is Not Lived, It Is Suffered Through*—reflects a DIY ethos rooted in the underground scene, often released via labels like Atomic Action! Records. Serve’s music remains a rallying cry for resistance, pairing breakneck riffs with lyrics that dissect systemic failures, making them a visceral voice in modern hardcore.
