Risk It’s “Mercy For None” is out now. 10 songs of straight NYHC-influenced hardcore produced by Nick Jett (Terror) and Rene Natzel (True Blue).

We are excited to welcome Risk It! To the WAR Records roster. 

Formed in Dresden over fifteen years ago, RISK IT! built their identity the hard way. No shortcuts, no major backing, no industry favors. Just relentless touring, high-energy performances, and a sound rooted in the traditions that made hardcore matter in the first place. Influenced by the sounds of Madball, Terror, Bitter End, No Warning, and Backtrack and creating something that felt both familiar and entirely their own. Fast, aggressive, grooved-out, with anthemic choruses that stick long after the set is over. From their earliest releases through "Who's Fooling Who?" in 2013 and "Cross to Bear" in 2016, RISK IT! refined their sound without ever losing the rawness that made people pay attention in the first place. Lyrically, the band has always stayed true to the core values of the culture: personal integrity, loyalty, perseverance, and the kind of honesty that does not require an apology.
