Portland, OR Band OLD CROSS Explores Existentialism with Poetic Verses and Cinematic Intensity On New Single "The Attic"; New Album “Dead End Lullabies” Out on October 25th
"Portland, Oregon’s Old Cross hearken back to the best of the 2000s melodic punk scene, pulling influences from AFI, The Used, and Alkaline Trio. They’ve made a name for themselves with their unique blend of power and melody."- New Noise
"The three-piece create high-octane hybrid music that fuses ‘90s/‘00s California-style punk-pop with darker melodic hardcore."- Rebel Noise
From the chaotic gloom of the Pacific Northwest, Old Cross pulls Influences from the early 2000’s melodic punk scene and bands like AFI, Alkaline Trio and The Used.
The three piece have released one self titled EP in 2018 and the most recent full length “Daggers” in 2020 on Zomie! Media Records. They are set to release their new album “Dead End Lullabies” on October 25th.
The latest single “The Attic” tackles momentary existentialism with honest, poetic verses and explosive melodic choruses. The slight ominous overtones throughout bring an intense cinematic quality to the newest addition to the band’s catalogue.
Frontman Chris Hahn says, “The Attic was originally written a decade ago after losing a close friend and was never officially released. Since the new album will basically be an anthology of the last 3 years following my dad's passing, The Attic felt relevant and right at home with the newly written record."
