American hardcore punk band Standard Issue has carved out a place for themselves, with unbridled energy and defiant character, known for their intense live shows & violent sound that gives a new unabashed perspective to punk rock that promotes a harsh unrefined sound that resonates with their audience & draws inspiration from the D.I.Y. mentality by addressing social political topics, their lyrics encourage listeners to question authority. Standard Issue gives voice to the jaded youth as a rallying cry for people who feel excluded & alienated that leaves a potent expression of fury & dissatisfaction. Their music serves as a reminder that punk is a way of life rather than a merely genre, but a testimony to the strength of an individual expression, one that is unapologetically & uncompromising. The band has shared the stage with : Leftover Crack, Resist & Exist, Harms Way, Dr. Know, D.R.I., Millions of Dead Cops, DFL, Holokaust, The Runts, Corrupt Vision, Call The Cops, Se Vende, Violencia, Deathwish, Union 13, & many more
