New York Hardcore has an undeniable past, present and future within the ranks of all of the members of The Last Stand. The Brooklyn based band features Michael Scondotto of the long running Inhuman on vocals, along with Dion De Nardo on bass, Stephen Della Croce on guitar & Jimmy McCormack on drums, all members of the band Shutdown, who spent their recording career in the 90’s and early 2000’s on Victory Records. Since the band’s first live show in October of 2010, The Last Stand has been playing all over the Northeast, sharing the stage with the likes of legendary bands such as Sick Of It All, Madball, Agnostic Front, Murphy’s Law, Youth of Today, Maximum Penalty, Underdog, All Out War, Terror, Breakdown, Wisdom In Chains and countless more. In 2011 the band released their debut 7” ep on 1124 Records. In 2013 with producer/engineer Jerry Farley, The Last Stand released their debut full length “The Time Is Now” on Eulogy Recordings to critical acclaim, with guest appearances by Lou Koller of Sick of It All and Dave Franklin of Vision.
In the summer of 2017, the band entered Nova Studios once again with Jerry Farley to record a new ep “This Is Real”, showcasing a more aggressive and focused side with 4 hard hitting tracks and a cover of the Gorilla Biscuits NYHC classic “Big Mouth”. This recording caught the attention of the California based label Irish Voodoo Records. “The Last Stand is very excited about being a part of the Irish Voodoo family and bringing some East Coast style to the West Coast. A label ran by people with a lifetime commitment to Hardcore, the same commitment that we have.” says TLS vocalist Michael Scondotto.
Look for The Last Stand’s “This Is Real” to be released in 2017 on Irish Voodoo Records – 100 % New York Hardcore fury!

The Last Stand offers up a great blend of the traditional hardcore formula with a dash of added heaviness and memorable, energetic songwriting. What more do you need!? – No Echo
This is NYHC. Brooklyn to be exact. And there is that signature Brooklyn groove. This is excellent, heavy, tough, smart NYHC. – New Noise Magazine
You may have read that TLS has 3 ex-members of Shutdown and Mike (vocals) from Inhuman but I think it is time to take that factoid and put it on the back burner as TLS flat out shred and stand well on their own. – In Effect
