New York City-area hardcore outfit FULL SCALE RIOT has issued a new single and video this week. The new digital single “Push” has been issued through the band’s Bandcamp page, and in conjunction with its release, an official video today sees its premiere through No Echo.
FULL SCALE RIOT is comprised of guitarist Tim McMurtie (M.O.D., Rhythm Trip), vocalist BJ Allen, bassist Jeff Wood (Shat, ex-M.O.D., ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan live), and drummer Evan Rossiter. The band’s energetic, diverse attack is fueled with elements of punk, thrash, and more, with an old-school NYHC street vibe and forward-thinking politics.
The new single “Push” was produced by Stress The White Boy at the ChopShop Studio in Yardley, Pennsylvania (Murphy’s Law, Agnostic Front, Sheer Terror). FULL SCALE RIOT self-released the track via their Bandcamp page this week and has also created a new video for the song. The “Push” video was produced, shot, and edited by vocalist BJ Allen, and now sees its debut via No Echo alongside a brief interrogation of Allen.

FULL SCALE RIOT followed that with a new track on the compilation Just For Us Hardcore Kids, which was released on McMurtie’s own Tripsquad Records, alongside new music from Eddie Suttonof Leeway NYC and his new band TRUTH AND RIGHTS, Rob Kabula formerly of Agnostic Front and his new band DEAD BLOW HAMMER, Russell Iglay of Underdog and his new band HUGE, and many others.
