Editor's note

Every Time I Die, Buffalo's hardcore lifers

A band that sharpened hardcore with personal lyrics and relentless energy over nine albums.

For a quick sense of their balance, try 'Organ Grinder' or 'Post-Boredom.' They're both loud and a little frayed at the edges, which feels about right.

Every Time I Die carved out a space where hardcore riffs met Keith Buckley's anxious, doubt-filled lyrics. Songs like 'Map Change' show how they could weave melodic passages into the aggression. They kept at it for over two decades from Buffalo, with albums like 'Hot Damn!' and 'Radical' defining their sound.

They started in 1998 with a hardcore base on 'Last Night in Town,' then found a tighter voice on 2003's 'Hot Damn!'. Through lineup shifts and nine studio albums, including 'Low Teens' and 'Radical,' they maintained that energy from their Buffalo home.

Archive material and source history

Every Time I Die formed in Buffalo, New York in 1998. Their early sound was rooted in hardcore, heard on their debut 'Last Night in Town,' but they found a more distinct voice with 2003's 'Hot Damn!' That album's energy and tighter songwriting helped build their reputation. They've released nine studio albums since, including 'Low Teens' in 2016 and 'Radical' in 2019.

Their music pulls from hardcore, metal, and punk, sometimes with unexpected touches. Keith Buckley's vocals and lyrics, which often deal with personal anxiety and doubt, are a central part of their sound. Songs like 'Map Change' and 'Organ Grinder' show how they balance aggressive riffs with melodic passages.

The band has faced some internal changes, like guitarist Andy Williams leaving in 2016. Their lyrics, including those on the song 'Touch Yourself,' have occasionally drawn criticism. They kept touring and recording through it, maintaining a steady output for over two decades from their base in Buffalo.
