Following the success of their debut single "Stronger Than Ever," Danish hardcore newcomers SPLIT return with their hard-hitting new track, "Guts." This explosive single perfectly captures the band's signature blend of raw intensity and meticulously crafted structure. The accompanying visualizer features scenes from the popular anime Berserk—watch it above.
“It’s important for me to get young people engaged in the metal scene,” explains vocalist Benjamin Jeppesen. “I want to create music that’s immersive and accessible, without sacrificing the heaviness that defines hardcore. By incorporating pop culture references, like my love for Berserk, I hope to connect with people who resonate with the same things I enjoy,” he adds.
SPLIT vocalist and songwriter Benjamin Jeppesen's journey in music began in the vibrant streets of New York City, where as a teenager, he honed his skills as a guitarist with the band The Dead Are Living. By age 14, he was already sharing stages with renowned acts like I See Stars, The Last Ten Seconds of Life, and Eyes Set to Kill. This early exposure to the music scene fueled a passion for hardcore that would eventually culminate in the creation of SPLIT.
In 2024, 21 year old Benjamin formed SPLIT with a clear vision: to push the boundaries of the genre and bring hardcore to new audiences. Backed by his talented bandmates Viktor, Linus, Aske, and Anders, SPLIT is poised to leave a lasting mark on the global hardcore scene.
