Incendiary Device Record Release Show Recap
This Saturday, Incendiary Device held their record release show at the Bowery Electric in NYC, supported by Rebelmatic, The Krays, Cortisol, and Pembroke. This show was organized as part of a series of free hardcore matinees spearheaded by ID vocalist Drew Stone, a fitting way to debut what he and the ID crew have been working so hard on.
Incendiary Device and Bridge Nine want to thank everyone who came out. It was a great show with unmatched energy and an exciting day for the band and all NYHC lifers. Their album is now available on streaming platforms, and you can pre-order vinyl, CDs, and merch on our webstore!
Incendiary Device's Debut Album Now Available!
Today, Incendiary Device’s debut album is available on streaming platforms! You can also pre-order vinyl, CDs and merch via our webstore, all of which will be shipping in the next month.
Founded by NYHC journeyman, documentarian, and filmmaker Drew Stone (vocals), and Tristan D’Graves (bass), and rounded out by Shaun Brennan (guitar) and Mike Flaherty (drums), Incendiary Device’s music is steeped in early hardcore and classic punk while inescapably maintaining the edge and grit of their New York roots. Heavily influenced by Minor Threat, Negative Approach, SSD and early Black Flag, Stone and D’Graves share a rich musical history having played and toured together for over a decade in several New York-based bands (Antidote, The High & The Mighty, Drew Stone Hit Squad).
Incendiary Device’s self-titled release features 12 tracks that capture the energy and rage of NYHC with hook-laden songwriting sensibility, separating them from their peers. Thematically it focuses largely on the dichotomy between maintaining a youthful spirit at heart with the realities of being middle-aged in a technology-focused world. The album is self-produced, primarily by D’Graves and Stone with engineering by Brian DiMeglio at Found Soundation Studios in Brooklyn, NY, and mixing by Dan Korneff and Neal “Zum” Osteberg.
Incendiary Device has toured nationally and shared the stage with bands including Biohazard, Madball, Sheer Terror, and Gogol Bordello, and have announced a record release show on November 12th at Bowery Electric as part of the club’s long-running, free Sunday Matinee series.

NYHC band Incendiary Device announce self-titled debut album out November 10th

Today, Bridge Nine Records announces the release of New York band Incendiary Device debut album, Incendiary Device, due out November 10th. Founded by NYHC journeyman, documentarian, and filmmaker Drew Stone (vocals), and Tristan D’Graves (bass), and rounded out by Shaun Brennan (guitar) and Mike Flaherty (drums), Incendiary Device’s music is steeped in early hardcore and classic punk while inescapably maintaining the edge and grit of their New York roots. Heavily influenced by Minor Threat, Negative Approach, SSD and early Black Flag, Stone and D’Graves share a rich musical history having played and toured together for over a decade in several New York-based bands (Antidote, The High & The Mighty, Drew Stone Hit Squad). Started in 2022, today the band share their first recorded music with the punchy title track “Incendiary Device.” The song packs that old-school character with electrifying guitars and comes alongside a fiery performance video, which can be watched HERE.
On the lyrics, D’Graves states:
“Incendiary Device is about the toxic nature of social media. Lyrically it uses the analogy between a weapon of war and social media as a social weapon. An incendiary device on the battlefield is not a precision weapon, innocent bystanders in the blast range become victims. Social media has the same effect. People spew hateful rhetoric from their phones and computers and sometimes extremely kind and genuine individuals get caught in the blast range. This song was inspired by a specific incident where an innocuous friend of ours became one of those targets.”
Incendiary Device’s self-titled release features 12 tracks that capture the energy and rage of NYHC with hook-laden songwriting sensibility, separating them from their peers. Thematically it focuses largely on the dichotomy between maintaining a youthful spirit at heart with the realities of being middle-aged in a technology-focused world. The album is self-produced, primarily by D’Graves and Stone with engineering by Brian DiMeglio at Found Soundation Studios in Brooklyn, NY, and mixing by Dan Korneff and Neal “Zum” Osteberg.
Incendiary Device has toured nationally and shared the stage with bands including Biohazard, Madball, Sheer Terror, and Gogol Bordello, and have announced a record release show on November 12th at Bowery Electric as part of the club’s long-running, free Sunday Matinee series.

Bridge Nine celebrated our first year open as a brick-and-mortar store on Saturday, September 9th! To help acknowledge the milestone, we invited one of our favorite bands, H2O, to perform in one of the most intimate settings that they’ve played in years.

Chris from Bridge Nine has been a fan of H2O since before he started the label. He even gave his college girlfriend a mixtape of H2O songs in 1996 of their demo and 7 inch! Having the opportunity to start working with the band back in 2007, and releasing the Nothing To Prove album, has been a highlight of the label.

To get the show started, Incendiary Device from NYC performed. The band features long-time B9 collaborator Drew Stone, and they have a full-length album in the works, look for it this fall on Bridge Nine!

Over the past 15 years, H2O and Bridge Nine have teamed up on 15 different releases, from new albums, singles, and re-issues of their earlier material. For this latest East Coast tour, they made our office the Boston-area stop on tour, and performed to the most intimate of audiences.

Everyone here at Bridge Nine would like to thank H2O, Incendiary Device, Larry Kelley, Chris Padgett, Jimmy the sound guy, and the many people who have come out and supported our live event series and our record store! We’d like to thank Liquid Death for keeping our guests hydrated. We’d also like to thank the people who helped document the night: Bill Fulkerson, Jason Zucco, Heather McGrath, Al Quint, Todd Pollock, Aaron RTTP, Dave Boccio & Dominic DiNardo. THANK YOU for your continued support. Excited to see what we can do in year two!

Since 1995, Bridge Nine Records has been a home for genre-defining records. Today, the Boston label welcomes New York’s Incendiary Device to its growing roster. Founded by NYHC journeyman, documentarian, and filmmaker Drew Stone (vocals), and Tristan D’Graves (bass), Incendiary Device’s music is steeped in early hardcore and classic punk while inescapably maintaining the edge and grit of their New York roots. Heavily influenced by Minor Threat, Negative Approach, SSD and early Black Flag, Stone and D’Graves share a rich musical history having played and toured together for over a decade in several New York-based bands (Antidote, The High & The Mighty, Drew Stone Hit Squad). Rounding out the 4-piece are Shaun Brennan (guitar), a veteran of the D.C. music scene, and Mike Flaherty (drums) who cut his teeth playing many a hardcore punk matinee (Car Bomb Parade, United Blood). Having formed in 2022, Incendiary Device will release their first full length album on Bridge Nine this fall.
On joining the label’s roster, D’Graves states:
“We’re thrilled to be working with Bridge Nine for our debut album. Their reputation as a label that supports and nurtures the hardcore scene is unmatched, and we’re honored to be part of their roster.”
And chiming in on what fans an expect from the record, Stone expands:
“We are excited about this album. It echos all our hopes and dreams looking towards the future. It harkens back to a time that was a big influence on all of us : Classic old school, American hardcore. We look forward to heading out on the road playing it for all our friends around the world. Thank you for the support!”
Bridge Nine label owner Chris Wrenn exclaims on signing the band:
"Working with Drew Stone and his new band, Incendiary Device, was an easy decision to make. Drew's long, rich history in both the New York City and Boston hardcore scenes, as well as his unwavering commitment to using his platform to promote up-and-coming bands represents the dedication and spirit that I look for when signing artists to Bridge Nine. I'm excited to be part of what he's up to next as he unleashes the new Incendiary Device album upon the world!”
Incendiary Device’s self-titled release features 12 tracks penned by D’Graves, Stone and Brennan that capture the energy and rage of NYHC with hook-laden songwriting sensibility, separating them from their peers. Incendiary Device has toured nationally and shared the stage with bands including Biohazard, Madball, Sheer Terror, and Gogol Bordello, and have a couple of shows on the horizon with more to be announced. Stay tuned for more details regarding the upcoming record.
