Crossingpoint are four guys from Durban, South Africa who play positive and punishing hardcore. Founded in 1998, our sound has developed with member changes and responses to what we see in the scene around us. Today we best describe our sound as a passionate and often dark brutal synthesis of hardcore, metal, and punk with a relevant message.
Hardcore has slowly being embraced by a wider audience, and many bands have watered down their message and the lifestyle to suit the listener. Where it used to be about an uncompromising message in response to societal problems, these days it seems to mostly be about the sound, with any sort of message being secondary.
Crossingpoint have stayed true to our roots by playing creative, energy-driven music with a message that inspires application.

Brandon, Ray, Ross and Richard are straight edge, and advocate a cruelty free way of life.

The world is never going to change over night. Real change happens in the minds and hearts of individuals who can go on to effect others. crossingpoint’s urgent and honest message dealing with issues such as sexism, loyalty and personal responsibility, is aimed at reaching the individual in a thoughtful way and helping them to see the world for what it truly is.

“For almost a decade Crossingpoint has been at the forefront of the hardcore scene in South Africa. Their positive sounds and awesome stage presence have inspired many kids to do the windmill and all sorts of other funny dance moves which those hardcore kids love to do. These guys are awesome and they’re easy to relate to on stage and off. A friend of mine once said that when you sing about something you love it is much more powerful than singing about something you hate, and being passionate and real about their faith Crossingpoint have spoken the truth, in love, into many people’s lives.”

It’s hard to go to a Crossingpoint show and leave unchanged. Theirs is a power and a passion that few bands consistently achieve.
