The Hope Conspiracy are a four-piece hardcore band from Boston, Massachusetts that began in 1999. They were briefly on hiatus around 2003-2005 before coming back in full-force with the landmark album Death Knows Your Name. They had put two full-lengths prior, through all of which they solidified themselves as one of the most essential hardcore bands on the more melodic side of things. Their anthemic call-to-arms and impassioned delivery has made them staples of their era, with an impact that's still felt today. If any evidence is needed, they managed to work with Equal Vision, Bridge 9, and Deathwish all in the span of a few years, which are all near-equal contenders for the four horsemen of hardcore labels in the 2000's. Admittedly, one of my biggest setbacks in posting is trying to come up with a way to accurately describe a band or explore its extensive history, and more often than not I end up drawing a blank. In a case like this though, I think its best to just post it as is, the bands music speaks for itself, and if you somehow haven't heard of this band already, you're in for a hell of a ride. Enjoy.
