World’s Appreciated Kitsch proudly presents:CONTENTION (straight edge hardcore/metal, USA)
Contention is a straight edge hardcore band hailing from Tampa, Florida, formed in 2019. Their music draws significant influence from the H8000 scene, reminiscent of bands like Arkangel and Congress. They debuted with a three-song promo in 2019, quickly establishing themselves within the hardcore community. In 2021, they released the EP "Laying Waste to the Kingdom of Oblivion," further solidifying their aggressive sound. Their debut full-length album, “Artillery From Heaven”, released in May 2024, showcased their evolution and dedication to the genre, and was definitely one of the best hardcore/metal releases last year.
Contention's lyrics often explore themes of urban alienation and apocalyptic scenarios, reflecting their unyielding straight edge ethos.
They kick off their EU/UK tour with an exclusive Dutch show taking place in Amsterdam!
