Kill Your Idols

Kill Your Idols is a hardcore punk band hailing from Long Island/New York City, formed in the mid-1990s. Influential in the hardcore scene, the group is known for its intense, energetic sound and unapologetically blunt lyrics that address personal and societal issues. Their discography, characterized by a prolific output of albums and split EPs, showcases the band's ability to stay relevant and uncompromising over the years. Notable releases such as "This Is Just the Beginning," "No Gimmicks Needed," and "Funeral for a Feeling" have cemented their status in the punk community, with each record exploring themes of frustration, struggle, and the defiance against life's adversities.

Throughout their career, Kill Your Idols has participated in a number of splits with other bands, a testament to their camaraderie and respect within the punk scene. Albums like "Split" and "split ep" not only highlight their ability to collaborate but also reflect the genre's tradition of bands supporting one another. Despite announcing a disbandment in 2007, the band has played reunion shows, demonstrating that their music continues to resonate with fans old and new. Their legacy is defined by a straightforward, no-frills approach to hardcore punk, with "Simple, Short, & Fast" encapsulating the essence of their sound and philosophy. Kill Your Idols remains a symbol of endurance and authenticity in a genre often plagued by commercialization.
