Who We Are: End It, Hardcore from Baltimore
We're End It, a hardcore band from Baltimore, Maryland. We started in 2017, and the city has been in every song since. This is our store, so here's who's behind it.
Who is in End It?
Five of us:
- Akil on vocals
- Gonz on drums (he also keeps the band running behind the scenes)
- Ray on lead guitar
- Johnny on rhythm guitar
- Pat on bass
What does End It sound like?
Classic East Coast 90s hardcore, with thrash and a bit of soul music in the mix: fast, groove-heavy riffs and breakdowns. Writers have put us next to bands like Leeway, Gut Instinct and Maximum Penalty. We'll let you decide.
Where have we played?
At home and on the road. We played Trapped Under Ice's Disturbin' the Peace festival in Baltimore in January 2023, and we've shared stages with Turnstile, Trapped Under Ice, Speed and Life Of Agony. We've toured with The Chisel and Cold World, and supported Fucked Up and Gorilla Biscuits.
Why a store?
Because a band's shirt is how a show follows you home. Everything here carries our name and our artwork: blackletter and bubble-letter END IT wordmarks, a skull dragon in flames, and more.
Tip: if you're new to us, start with Unpleasant Living, then put on Wrong Side of Heaven.
