Twice the Rage
Xiao
I’ll never be whole, I’ll always be half Be half of the worth, earn half the respect Be half of an influence, make half of a mark I’m carrying twice the rage I’m only a medal, only a trophy Just need a regular polish I’m a passive gemstone, I shine because you’re the sun I’m carrying twice the rage Can’t get as sweet a fruit for my labour Engagement, commitment, despite my passion I also hold twice, twice the rage

XIAO, Stockholm’s relentless force in hardcore, returns with their debut full-length, CONTROL. Building on the raw intensity of their EPs PAIN (2021) and BURN (2023), CONTROL pushes their sound to new heights, blending powerviolence ferocity with the urgency of modern hardcore. Recorded by Jörgen “Jugglo” Wall and mixed by Ben Jones (Pest Control), the album features collaborations with Lifecrusher, Entry, Blood Sermon, and others, delivering XIAO’s most politically charged and uncompromising work to date.
