A four-band bill like this doesn’t leave much room for downtime, and the March 25 show at Nevermore Hall kept a steady pace from start to finish. With **Drain**, **No Pressure**, **Haywire**, and **Secret World** sharing the lineup, the night moved anchored by a crowd that stayed engaged with all the bands.

## Secret World

**Secret World** opened and set the tone early. Their set leaned raw and direct—short songs, minimal breaks, and just enough space between tracks to reset. The room wasn’t full yet, but the response was immediate, with the first pockets of movement starting near the front and gradually pulling more people in.

## Haywire

**Haywire** followed with a tighter, aggressive style. Their pacing gave the set a different shape— frantic and almost out of control. By this point, the floor had filled out, and the pit started to hold consistently rather than breaking in and out. When they played tribute to Baltimore's heroes, Trapped Under Ice with "Please to Meet You", the venue almost came down. Total chaos, but beautiful to see.

## No Pressure

**No Pressure** shifted things again. Their set drew a different kind of reaction—less chaotic, more collective. The sing-alongs were loud and sustained, and the crowd stayed locked in throughout. It was one of the more balanced moments of the night, where energy came as much from familiarity as from impact.

By the time **Drain** went on, the room was fully settled into the rhythm of the show. Their set was the most physical of the night: the pit stayed active, and the band kept things moving without overextending between songs. There’s a clarity to how they structure a live set—no wasted time, no unnecessary buildup. Last November, the Revolver magazine called them "the most fun band in hardcore," and that title fits the band very well.

The tour goes until April 18th: do yourself a favor and go see them live. They are putting out one of the best shows of 2026!
