Our SXE buddies share their favorite Straight Edge records of the past year.
It’s no longer “Best of…” season and this is exactly why we’re sharing our Top 7 Straight Edge records of 2020, so you can properly check them out.
To compile this ultimate 2020 sxe selection we reached out to our edge buddies from all around the globe. The result is below, so crank those speakers up and rest assured, it’s been another huge year for straight edge hardcore.
Noteworthy Mention:
As always there are a lot of really young bands doing great work, and they definitely deserve some recognition.
Better Run – The Fight For Mother Earth
The young fellas from Vienna, Austria self-released their second EP The Fight For Mother Earth, and the title of the EP sums up their distaste of the ongoing war with nature which echoes deeply throughout the five songs. Wendi’s accent gives a unique and pissed off sound to the crushing, bouncy riffs. I’m a big fan of the familiar sound bites scattered throughout the EP. Youngblood of the year.
“Never stop learning, never stop loving”.
