Against is a hardcore band hailing from Brisbane, Australia. Vocalist Greg first formed the group in September 2001, with the intention of having fun with some friends and playing hardcore music with heart and a message.

After signing with Common Bond Records, Against recorded and released their second EP entitled, "My Hate My Choice", to critical acclaim and has now sold over 2000 copies to date. Constant touring across Australia with bands such as Mindsnare and Champion, as well as sharing the stage with such bands as AFI, Terror, Madball, Cro-Mags, Boysetsfire and Ensign, has helped pave their path to success and allowed them to thoroughly "road-test" their sound.

With a new full length album entitled, "Left For Dead", released on Melbourne based Trial and Error Records in November this 2006, Against have taken their sound to the next level. The band's intensity and conviction is ultimately what separates them from the rest of the bands that are playing this style of music.
