Earth Crisis to reunite
 

According to Sonar Baltimore, legendary vegan/straight-edge hardcore act Earth Crisis will be reuniting to headling the 2nd Annual Maryland Metal and Hardcore Festival.Formed in 1992, the band was notable for their militant stance towards animal rights issues and the straight edge lifestyle. Though the band split up in 2001, members remained active in a number of projects, and frontman Karl Buechner even surfaced last year to defend straight edge in an alarmist piece about the movement helmed by Geraldo Rivera.
