From their inspirational album artwork and messages of positivity down to their truly unique and hard-hitting take on the hardcore genre, Boston’s
Have Heart sadly saw their flame extinguished before having a chance to truly take the world by storm. This live recording, captured at their final hometown show before disbanding last year, displays the affection that underground music listeners showed towards the band. From start to finish, the sound of 2,000 rabid followers can be heard screaming back every word. The 21-song set culminates in a rousing send-off with ‘Watch Me Rise’; a fitting epiphany to one of hardcore’s largely unsung heroes.
