Nothing to Prove

Nothing to Prove

Nothing to Prove is a hardcore/punk group associated with Canada. The band forms in February 2005 and begins life under the name xSkullKrusher 2000x before changing to Nothing to Prove after a series of member changes and a shift away from being exclusively straightedge.

Background

The group is linked in the bio to Tacoma, Washington, described as the “City of Destiny”. Its early shows often happen as support for cancelled bands or between scheduled sets, and its live reputation is built around short, intense performances. The members are not all straightedge, but they share respect for the lifestyle and a commitment to hardcore music.

Line-up and identity

The original members still present after later line-up changes are Zack, Adam and Jimmy. The band’s move from xSkullKrusher 2000x to Nothing to Prove marks a decision to take the project more seriously and to broaden its identity beyond a strict straightedge framework.
