Biohazard

About

Biohazard: From the asphalt jungle of Brooklyn, a sonic Molotov cocktail forged in hardcore's fire and hip-hop's grit. More than just a band, Biohazard was a cultural flashpoint, a four-way intersection of punk's rebellion, metal's aggression, and rap's streetwise poetry. Their sound, a brutal fusion of hardcore punk, heavy metal, and hip-hop influences – a sonic blueprint later adopted by countless acts – resonated with disaffected youth seeking catharsis in the early 90s. "Urban Discipline," their 1992 Roadrunner Records breakthrough, remains a landmark, its confrontational lyrics and bone-jarring riffs soundtracking a generation's anxieties. Biohazard didn't just play music; they ignited mosh pits. Tracks like "Punishment" and "Hold My Own" became anthems of defiance, fueled by the raw energy of Billy Graziadei, Danny Schuler, Evan Seinfeld, and Bobby Hambel. Collaborations with Onyx ("Judgment Night" soundtrack) further cemented their cross-genre appeal. Lineup changes and stylistic explorations followed, but the core ethos of raw honesty and unwavering intensity remained. Currently, Biohazard, with its reunited classic lineup, is actively touring and reigniting their sonic flame, proving their sound remains as relevant and potent as it was decades ago. They continue to be a vital force, reminding everyone that the sound of the streets never truly fades.
