Motive Clothing Company, in association with Mediaskare and Sumerian Records have put together the inaugural Firestorm Fest Tour featuring the reunion of EARTH CRISIS, one of the most influential hardcore bands of all time, alongside TERROR, SWORN ENEMY, SHAI HULUD, DOWN TO NOTHING, and RECON.
Earth Crisis guitarist Scott Crouse had this to say: "We are extremely excited to get Earth Crisis back out on the road, and we couldn't ask for a better package for this tour. We are hoping to bring the vibe of the mid '90s hardcore scene to these shows by having a diverse line up of bands, and also vendors with information supporting ethical and political causes we've always supported. The goal is to create a place where people can go to positively vent their frustration and anger."
Baron Bodnar of Mediaskare and Ash Avildsen of Sumerian Records collectively had this to say: "The members of Earth Crisis are some of the most genuine and passionate people we have ever worked with not only in the hardcore/metal scene, but in the music business as a whole. We are honored to be working so closely with such an incredible and influential group of guys who still truly care about the music they play along with their fans as well. We hope everyone who has been touched by hardcore music at some point in their life as well as those who still live and breathe it as a lifestyle will come out and celebrate the timeless movement with this amazing line-up of bands."
