Happy hardcore. (Or insert any sub-genre of modern metal that includes distorted guitars and combines screaming and singing.) FP likes to disregard the rules and challenge people to think a little bit for themselves. The music is hard-edged; the lyrics are positive; the stage show is phenomenal. It’s amazing that the guys usually only end up with a couple bruises and cuts rather than in the emergency room! The band has drawn comparisons to Sevendust, P.O.D., Deftones, and even Mudvayne. But why do you care?

Well, Flinchpoint is more than just a band playing some music. It’s more than just another concert. A performance is more of an experience. Searing guitars, driving bass lines, dynamic percussion, and vocals that span the spectrum from flowing harmonies to gut-wrenching screams all coalesce in a subdued maelstrom to create a captivating, indispensable sound that is uniquely Flinchpoint.

In this digital era of over-produced music, it is refreshing to have a band emerge onto the scene that embraces the live show. As thousands of fans over the years have witnessed, an FP performance is not only engaging, exciting and memorable-it is essential in order to truly appreciate their music. These guys are the consummate package unifying talent, vision, and image with a solid work ethic. They are not only passionate about their music, but they are equally passionate about life. And they plan to make music a full-time career permanently in the near future.
