Open Choice - Sincere, honest straight edge SoCal hardcore in the vein of Trial, Strife, Have Heart, Bane....
Genre: Straight Edge Hardcore
Members: Victor Galindo - vocals Rob Mertz - guitar Adam Miranda - guitar Fick - Bass Adam Galindo - drums
Hometown: SoCal
Record Label: Irish Voodoo
Biography: Hailing from southern California, One x Choice is taking StraightEdge hardcore back to the forefront. With an ex pro-skater and members of bands like Time For Change, Collision, Built To Last and Her Grey Earth and a drummer who at an incredibly young age has already won several awards, One x Choice is pushing forward with strong words following their every move.
Their debut EP on New Age records in 2008 set their tone with a 90'sish hardcore sound complete with a sincere Straight Edge message. They then released their first video for 'This X....the Nail in Your Coffin'. This song was a strong disapproval of drunk driving and the laws enforcing it. Harsh images for a harsh message. Not for the faint of heart.
Having moved to Seventh Dagger Records in 2009, One X Choice released their full length entitled 'Forever War'. This record took their music and message to the next level. Every song deals with some aspect of drug or alcohol abuse from a very real perspective. Audio drops from real newscasts are spattered throughout the record to support the messages within. For this record, One X Choice gathered some of the Straight Edge scenes most honored heroes. Karl from Earth Crisis, Toby from H20, Greg from Trial, Andrew from Strife, Scott from Earth Crisis and Mike from Outspoken all contributed on the record and quotes can be seen on the gatefold of the record explaining how Straight Edge encompasses their lives. The message is to show kids that you can grow up, be successful and maintain your Straight Edge values and this certainly proves that.
