RENDERED USELESS

(Portland, OR)

Punk Rock / Skatepunk / Hardcore

Rendered Useless is the result of years of dedication to pursuing the passion and message of their songs to endure, progress, and conquer your inner demons to work for you. After 2 decades of reappraising members and eventually launching their first and only official record to date “Never Too Old To Die Young” in 2012, Rendered Useless have since included songs from Omar Cripps and Matt Danger’s sister band Wild Bill with their full length “Lawbreaker” (2014) to bring new life into the live set as they prepare to record their 2nd upcoming RU full length. Placing their faith in the pathos that everyone is the captain of their own destiny, Rendered Useless continue to rally leaders, friends, and audiences with their grips riding high on the back of Portland’s pasty white neck and depositing their ample girth into the nape of victory. An amalgamation of melodic hardcore and Skatepunk and street core, Rendered Useless thoroughly probe the inner sanctum of Punkrock by destroying it from the inside out, only to leave it better than they found it through the power of motivation and destiny.
