The Crosses Drop New Single “Nails”; Debut EP Out April 17th

The Milwaukee based hardcore band The Crosses follows the initial announcement and presents the second single off their debut EP – ‘Outlier‘. Coming out via Triple Eye Industries/Rushmor Records/Spectrogram Records.

On their debut release on the heels of a well-received single, The Crosses forge a sound that bridges their hardcore roots with the angular, progressive metallic edge of bands like Voivod. Fronted by Daniel Kubinski of Die Kreuzen, the band layers dissonant, tension-filled guitar work over tightly controlled, modern hardcore rhythm. Alongside a full set of original material, the record includes a reworked Die Kreuzen track and a Hüsker Dü cover—tying their forward-thinking sound to the Midwestern lineage that shaped them. With guitarist Jim Potter (Dr. Shrinker), bassist Christopher Ortiz (Magnetic Minds / Speed Freaks), and drummer Jesse Sieren (Big Laugh / Revelation Records), The Crosses offer a rare blend of metallic precision and punk urgency.

For a decade, The Crosses served as the custodians of the Die Kreuzen legacy, bringing those classic songs back to the stage with original vocalist Daniel Kubinski. But after ten years of refining that intensity, the band has evolved. They are no longer just looking back—they are moving forward with a set of original material that carries the same DNA.The first original recordings from The Crosses featuring the voice of Die Kreuzen. After 10 years of celebrating the legacy, the next chapter begins. Includes members of Dr. Shrinker & Big Laugh.
