Racetraitor is an influential American metallic hardcore band, known for their radical take on racial politics and for pioneering the "metalcore" sound by blending extreme metal with hardcore punk. Formed in 1996, the band quickly gained notoriety for their confrontational live shows and aggressive anti-racist message. After a long hiatus since 1999, the band reformed in 2016, citing the urgent political climate in the U.S. as a primary motivator for their return.
Mani Mostofi (vocals), Dan Binaei (guitar), Andrea Black (guitar), Brent Decker (bass), and Andy Hurley (drums, also of Fall Out Boy).
