Title Fight

Title Fight is an American band from Kingston, Pennsylvania, formed in 2003 by brothers Ben and Ned Russin along with Jamie Rhoden and Shane Moran. The group emerged from the East Coast hardcore and pop-punk scene, quickly earning a devoted following for their raw, emotionally charged sound that blended melodic hooks with hardcore intensity.

Over three studio albums — «Shed» (2011), «Floral Green» (2012), and «Hyperview» (2015) — Title Fight steadily evolved their sound, moving from aggressive pop-punk toward a hazier, shoegaze-influenced style that surprised and impressed critics. «Floral Green» is often cited as a landmark record that bridged hardcore audiences with indie and alternative rock listeners.

Songs like «Head in the Ceiling Fan», «27», and «Shed» showcase the band's signature mix of driving guitars, gruff vocal interplay between the Russin brothers, and introspective lyrics. Though the band has been largely inactive since the mid-2010s, their influence on the melodic hardcore and emo revival scenes remains significant.
