A high-energy, nostalgic post-hardcore act.
Some bands are discovered. Lower Definition is remembered. The San Diego post-hardcore outfit spent years building a devoted following with “The Greatest of All Lost Arts”, an album that meant everything to the people who found it. After going quiet, they came back with a purpose. Their 2026 record “The Purpose of the Moon” is not a comeback story. It's a band at the peak of their craft, playing like they've got something to prove. Their new album captures everything that made them matter in the first place: emotional precision, melodic intensity, and the rare ability to make a room feel smaller. The reunited lineup brings the raw energy of their early years with the control that only comes from living through something. Over 110k+ monthly listeners and growing fast, if you've been sleeping on Lower Definition, now is the time.
Lower Definition plays dynamic post-hardcore and screamo, blending soaring melodic vocals with aggressive guitar work, prominent in the San Diego alternative scene.
The band features vocalist Matt Geise, guitarists Eddy Marshburn and Mark Luciano, drummer Valentino Arteaga, and bassist Stefan Toler.
