Issues

Issues were an American post-hardcore band from Atlanta, Georgia, formed from the remnants of Woe, Is Me. The group became known for blending aggressive breakdowns and unclean vocals with polished R&B and pop-influenced clean singing, a dual approach that set them apart within the post-hardcore and metalcore scenes of the early 2010s.

Their self-titled debut album, released in 2014, charted in the upper reaches of the US Rock chart and brought wider attention to their genre-crossing sound, drawing comparisons to acts blending hardcore with contemporary R&B vocal styles. The follow-up, Headspace, released in 2016, continued to build on that fusion and further established the band's presence on rock radio and touring circuits.

Over the years the band's lineup shifted, with founding vocalist and other members departing at different points while the group continued releasing music, including later singles and reworked tracks such as «King of Amarillo». Songs like «COMA» and «Tapping Out» remain among their most recognized tracks, reflecting the band's identity as one of the more melodically adventurous acts to emerge from the post-hardcore scene.
