Set Your Goals
Set Your Goals emerged from the Bay Area in 2004 and became a key band in the mid-2000s collision between pop punk and melodic hardcore. Built around dual vocalists Jordan Brown and Matt Wilson, the group favored fast tempos, gang vocals, positive urgency, and breakdowns that kept the music tied to hardcore even when the hooks were bright. Reset introduced the formula, but Mutiny! became the defining statement, packed with songs that treated friendship, self-definition, scene politics, and persistence as reasons to shout in unison. This Will Be the Death of Us broadened the band's profile with sharper production and guests, while Burning at Both Ends continued their mix of melody and muscle. Set Your Goals fit punk and hardcore scope directly, and their influence sits in the easycore lane that linked New Found Glory-style songwriting with Comeback Kid-style impact. At their best, they sound communal rather than polished, using busy words, quick changes, and shouted refrains to turn personal frustration into a room-wide push forward.
