Initiate

Initiate emerged as a quintet in 2017 in Southern California and soon began to make a small name in the local hardcore scene. The band consists of Crystal Pak (Chant), Alec Riley (Guitare), Jack McTomney (Guitare), Michael Morales (Basse) and Danny Paul (Battery). It follows logically the release of a live promo and then a first album, Before Long..., in 2018. The band continues to rinse a few boards, delivers the ep Lavender in 2020 and starts to shoot more widely, which will lead Triple B Records ( Dead Heat , Move , Sunami , Mindforce ) to sign them to distribute their second album, Cerebral Circus which was released in 2023 and is produced by Zach Tuch ( Touché Amoré , Dare , Zulu , Trash Talk ).
