Interview: Rich (Guitars) of Desolated (Video/Audio)

Carl Fisher 1 min read

Legendary Brit hardcore bruisers Desolated are back with their much-anticipated brand-new album, ‘Finding Peace’, out on May 30th, 2025, via MLVLTD.

Putting it bluntly, this is as mean as it gets. Desolated bring the stompy hardcore heavy, but with metalised intensity, and deliver each track with furious focus. Chances are, you’ll end up with a bloody nose just sitting alone listening to it.

Read our full review of the album here.

We spoke to guitarist Rich of Desolated, going into the details about this new album’s creation, the drive behind Desolated, their status in the hardcore scene, how the rise of so many great young bands has encouraged them, and so much more.
