Comprised of individuals deeply rooted in the underground music scene, False Reality are a London-based hardcore band that formed in 2023. Renowned for their thrash infused, hardcore crossover sound and fiercely energetic performances they draw influences from bands such as Trapped Under Ice, Broken Teeth and Backtrack as well as early era Sepultura and even Deftones. Having recorded the EP Path of Self Destruct with producer Steve Sears Jr (Gallows, TRC, Prowler, Conjurer) and released in April 2024, False Reality set out to prove why they stand apart, delivering a release that is, in equal parts blistering - as it is poetically cathartic. Lyrically delving into the complexities of life, exploring themes of betrayal, societal values, and tragedy. The first single released Opposites React, is a groove driven, empowering track that features vocals from Jem of Aussie hardcore band SPEED, which has received support from Daniel P Carter on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show. False Reality have carved out a distinct identity, leaving an imprint on audiences who have witnessed their performances. Having already shared the stage with the likes of Speed, Jesus Piece, Madball, Buried Alive and Static Dress, garnering support both locally and nationally, False Reality are solidifying their status as one of the most exciting acts in the UK heavy music scene.
