I really don't care what anyone else says but Champion is the best hardcore band out there today. They have it all. They are straight edge to the core. They are about as positive as you can get. They are part old school and part new school. No metal, plenty of sing alongs and mosh parts and they put on the best live hardcore show. They have two very popular ep's under their belt and Promises Kept is their first full length. If you are looking for a sound, they would be part Bane and part Chain of Strength.

Promises Kept has eleven new songs on it and a rerecorded song, "The Decline", from their EP, Count Our Numbers.

Promises Kept is the best hardcore album of the year. I love this band and I love this album.
