Sense of Purpose was a hardcore punk band from Melbourne, Australia. Formed in 1996, they were initially called Nextstep. ==History== Sense of Purpose were a Melbourne band who injected their own brand of fast, positive, passionate hardcore into the Australian scene between 1996 and 2006. The band had an outspoken stance on a range of political and social issues. The band released their first full length CD, "A Matter Of Respect" in February 2001 along with the previously unreleased EP "End Of A New Beginning" which was recorded in December 1998 when the band was known as Nextstep. The band played under the moniker of Nextstep between 1996 and 1999 and released a demo tape "Together We Can Make A Difference" and a 7" EP "Time To Speak Up". In 2003, drummer Pete was brought up front with Chris to give the band a dual vocal attack. Good friend Grant Johns of Dying Breed, was brought in to fill the void on drums. In February 2004, the band headed back to Birdland Studios to record their second full length CD. "Tomorrow's Too Late" was released in mid-2004, a time which also saw the band sign with UK hardcore label Go-Team Records who released the CD internationally later that year, with all new artwork. Soon after the band parted ways with original guitarist Leith Gow, who went on to form In Name And Blood and brought in new guitarist Brad O'Gorman, who previously played in UK outfit Insight. But in 2006, Sense Of Purpose decided it was time to exit the scene and released their final CD, the appropriately titled, "Dismantled" and played their last ever show with good friends The Dead Walk, INAB, Procedure 286 and Go For Broke. Over the years Sense Of Purpose have supported a host of touring bands including: Agnostic Front (US), H20 (US), AFI(US), Cro-Mags (US), Terror (US), Ensign (US), No Fun at All (Sweden), Strife (US), Champion (US), Citizen Fish (UK), Agent Orange (US), Balance (NZ), Shank (Scotland), DSM (NZ), Shutdown (US), Good Clean Fun (US), Strike Anywhere (US), Dayglo Abortions (Can) and Vitamin X (Neth). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sense of Purpose」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
