Official press release:
Victory Records is proud to usher in the new leaders of melodic hardcore, Conveyer. The band has laid a solid foundation over the last few years through numerous self-booked, successful North American tours and a self-released debut album, Worn Out. As the newest addition to the Victory Records family, Conveyer prepares to build on their devoted and faithful following with their sophomore release, When Given Time To Grow, set to be released September 4th, 2015. Get a taste of the new album with the new song "Haven."
Hear the new track "Haven."
Hailing from Minneapolis, MN, Conveyer's devotion to music and faith is the common thread that connected its members @ Danny Adams (Vocals), Ty Brooks (Guitar), Nick Matako (Guitar), Ben Greene (Bass), and Daniel Glover (Drums).
Frontman Danny Adams says of the signing, "Realizing Victory was on board with Conveyer and wanted to help us do more was a surreal experience. When I was thirteen or fourteen, my mom signed up for a Victory sampler, and it got me into bands like Atreyu, Bayside, Silverstein and eventually The Warriors and Refused. A majority of the bands that got me into going to shows and participating in a local hardcore/metal scene were putting out records through Victory before I even knew what music I liked."
"To be a part of a label that is responsible for releasing some of my favorite records of all time is a dream come true. We are honored to be a part of the Victory Records family," adds guitarist Ty Brooks.
On the background of "Haven," Adams explains, "It's basically me expressing my disinterest in the immoral composition of the status quo on a worldwide scale, and Christ being the only antithesis to the mindset the world conditions us to live under. I don't think there's a simple way for me to coalesce the entire point of the song, which is why I encourage people to come ask questions at shows or online."
Conveyer will hit the road this weekend on July 4th, appearing at several festivals such as Audiofeed, Ichthus, Sonshine and Pierced. Stay tuned for more album and tour news on Conveyer.

No one in this band comes to any of the hardcore shows in the cities. Not related to Minneapolis at all. Please don't slander our good city.

"A majority of the bands that got me into going to shows and participating in a local hardcore/metal scene were putting out records through Victory before I even knew what music I liked." Not the good ol days anymore and def NOT the same label, bro.

brokenhero4 hours ago all of this band's records should go on a conveyor belt straight into a garbage chute lol
Worn Out was really solid. Looking forward to a new release and seeing where it takes 'em
Everyone dissing this is just mad because they're still playing half assed 80's hair metal in a bar owned by their uncle dick who used to be a proffesional bowler back in the 90's. This is talent. LONG LIVE CONVEYER.
Probably got the deal from giving good head!
This band has nothing to do with Minneapolis. Just like another venia that claimed to be 'minneapolis hardcore' but just played in the suburbs
Middle schoolers who play with tech decks and wear beanie caps in warm weather are stoked

So sick! Sounds like Hundredth! Br00tal! Can't wait to mosh my dick clean off my body!
the font for their logo is awfully close to converge's. no shit Sherlock, so is the letters in both words butt plug lover
Quit reading these dumb comments Danny. Love you ????
sucks when your backups are so much better than the main vocalist. weak counterparts ripoff anyway
Remember when Melodic Hardcore meant good bands like Good Riddance, Pennywise, early Rise Against etc...Not this poseur shit!
2014 work at pizza hut. 2015 sign to victory records. 2016 work at pizza hut.
I'm just surprised this isn't another gimmick metalcore band with neon-dyed swoop hair, constantly having to assure people they aren't actually gay.
Anybody else catch Danny Glover Beaton the skins for the jesus gays? Maybe the grandma from Angels In The Outfield will come out to a show
anonymous4 hours ago 2014 work at pizza hut. 2015 sign to victory records. 2016 work at pizza hut. ^all jokes aside, this is probably accurate.
cool a spirit filled shai hulud ripoff. jesus is stoked
anonymous 6 hours ago Remember when Melodic Hardcore meant good bands like Good Riddance, Pennywise, early Rise Against etc...Not this poseur shit! i don't remember those bands ever being hardcore
i wonder when the whole "let's sound like counterparts" thing will end
"It's basically me expressing my disinterest in the immoral composition of the status quo on a worldwide scale, and Christ being the only antithesis to the mindset the world conditions us to live under." Ooooohhhh, here we go...
this, like Title Fight and all that bullshit, is a gonna-go-get-some-food band at a Fest.
