Enkindel

Enkindel was a long running hardcore band in the mid 1990s.

"Hey, it ain't slayer, btu at least you can mosh to it" (from an Enkindel flyer) pretty much summed up the band. Their style was the characteristic "melodic hardcore" of the mid 90s with chugga-chugga guitars and a singer that sang/screamed (a little more of the former, a little less of the latter), but it also mixed in influences from their contemporaries such as Endpoint (with whom they shared a member), and Erchint (with whom they split a 7").

Around 1998, the band asked guitarist [[ ]] to leave, supposedly over a drinking problem. The band moved towards a much more poppy sound, played out one time under a different name, got no reaction whatsoever, and decided to rename themselves The Enkindels.
