Formed in 2018 in Offenburg, Germany, BACKSTABBED have carved their own path through the hardcore scene with an uncompromising DIY mindset, explosive live shows and their self-defined "Boundaries Breakin' Hardcore" sound. Blending crossover hardcore, crushing breakdowns, 2-steps, modern metal influences and emotional lyrics, balancing aggression with vulnerability. With one album, four EPs and numerous singles, BACKSTABBED have shared stages with LANDMVRKS, Stick To Your Guns, Terror and Hatebreed, establishing themselves as one of Germany's rising independent hardcore acts.On October 2nd, BACKSTABBED will release their new four-track EP, SERVANT OF MISERY — a personal journey through loss, guilt, alienation, inner conflict and destructive patterns. The first single, "SPRING INSIDE MY GRAVE", released on August 6th alongside its music video, confronts pain, grief and the struggle to heal without depending on someone else. On September 3rd, BACKSTABBED follow it up with "ANOMALY", A darker chapter, the song dives into guilt, fractured identity and the fear of becoming the very thing you despise. Together, these songs open the door to SERVANT OF MISERY — four tracks about breaking apart, facing the ghosts of your decisions and searching for something to hold onto among the ruins. Raw, heavy and deeply personal, the EP reflects what happens when aggression turns inward — and hope begins to grow where everything once felt dead. www.backstabbed.de
