HARDCORE for us always meant something like roughness, harshness, hardship. And from this viewpoint NORTE CARTEL it leave us the impression that we have reached a goal, whether it is the theme of the songs, or the heavyness and aggressiveness of the music. We live on a time that what’s called HARDCORE is flooded by emotional songs, fake attitudes and weird hair looks. There is no better time to talk about vengeance, to take back things we believe are the essence of HARDCORE such as friendship and honor, things that are being forgotten because of a massive number of teens in crisis consuming whatever fashion comes along. Trends come and go when they are not profitable anymore. The phonies disappear and abandon what they used to say was the meaning of their lives without guilt or remorse. And we will still be here doing our thing because doing it and being it are now the same thing to us. What we did, do and will do for HARDCORE is no favor, obligation, nor a chase for personal rewards. It is our life and that is what NORTE CARTEL is all about.
