REFUSE RESIST was born in a garage just north of Boston with a goal to create music that they would want to listen to and sing along to.

There was a time when music was life, and life was music. A time when people communicated with each other face to face. Whether it was a club or a basement, music was easy to find and a lot of kids were into it. REFUSE RESIST was formed to try to bring those ideals back into the present through good straight up hardcore/punk. A blend of all sides of punk and hardcore create the unique sound from this Boston band. So, come on all of you into punk rock, hardcore and Oi. REFUSE RESIST!!!!
