Ho Chi Minh City hardcore outfit Empathize just dropped their heaviest release to date, “F*CK AROUND AND FIND OUT,” now streaming on all major platforms, with an official video out on YouTube.
Known for their sharp blend of metallic hardcore and beatdown aggression, Empathize emerged from Saigon’s ever-growing underground in recent years, quickly earning a reputation for their no-nonsense approach and blistering live sets. Their previous releases hinted at controlled chaos, but this new track is an all-out war cry.
Clocking in just over two minutes, “F*CK AROUND AND FIND OUT” wastes no time. It’s a straight punch to the face, backed by massive breakdowns, relentless riffing, and a vocal delivery that feels like it’s ripping through concrete. Adding to the carnage, the band teams up with Huỳnh Huy, bringing in that District 105 flair for pure sonic punishment.
Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Blake.B, and arranged by the band themselves, the track keeps it raw but surgical. The accompanying video, filmed and edited by Khanh Trần, captures the unfiltered energy of the Saigon scene, packed with sweat, flying bodies, and that infectious fury only a local pit can bring.
Special thanks go out to the Saigon Caught In A Mosh crew and every single mosher who brought blood and chaos to the shoot. The striking cover art by Alixe và Con Gian Bat Hanh ties it all together with the same raw, unapologetic spirit the band stands for.
With “F*CK AROUND AND FIND OUT,” Empathize isn’t just talking tough, they’re delivering on every level. Loud, fast, and unrelenting, this is a warning shot and a victory lap all in one.
Watch the video now and stream the track everywhere.
