Outbreak is a hardcore punk band known for their aggressive style, relentless energy, and uncompromising lyrical content. Formed in the early 2000s, Outbreak carved out a niche for themselves within the hardcore scene with their raw sound and intense live shows. They hail from Maine and quickly gained a reputation for delivering short, sharp shocks of punk fury, drawing comparisons to the likes of Minor Threat and Black Flag for their intensity and to Hatebreed for their heaviness.

Throughout their career, Outbreak has demonstrated a commitment to the DIY ethos, often self-releasing their music or working with small, independent labels. The band's discography includes standouts like their self-titled album "Outbreak," alongside other visceral offerings such as "Work To Death," "Failure," and "You Make Us Sick." Each release showcases the band's ability to blend blistering riffs with vehement vocals, often confronting personal and societal issues head-on. Their music serves as an unfettered expression of discontent and rebellion, resonating with fans who appreciate punk's more hardcore, unadulterated roots. Despite lineup changes and the evolving landscape of music, Outbreak has remained a steadfast and influential force within the hardcore punk community.
