Episode 348: Belfast Hardcore Rises: Steve & Robbie of If It Bleeds on their formation, debut EP & Bloodstock 2025.

July 18th, 2025

In this episode, I sit down with Steve (drums) and Robbie (guitar) from the 5-piece hardcore-infused metal outfit If It Bleeds – one of the most exciting names rising out of the Belfast heavy scene.

We dive deep into:
• How the band was formed
• Steve and Paddy’s shared history in Heal of Achilles
• Their debut WE CAN KILL IT EP — 13 minutes of crushing, high-impact metal mixed & mastered by Josh Robinson
• Capturing raw live energy in both their recordings and chaotic, DIY music videos
• A creative, uncompromising approach to heavy music
• Bringing Belfast Hardcore to Bloodstock 2025
• And their passion for making real connections in the metal and hardcore scenes

This band is as real and raw as it gets — loud, aggressive, and unapologetically themselves.

🎧 Whether you're into hardcore, metalcore, or anything heavy, this one’s a must-listen.
🩸 If it bleeds… you know the rest.
