Firestorm is an EP by the American hardcore/metal band Earth Crisis, which was released in 1993. Firestorm is still one of the more controversial releases in U.S hardcore and the title song has been accused of promoting a hardline stance. However, although the lyrics are promoting violence as a method of fighting against drug lords and dealers (with the lines Violence against violence, let the roundups begin, a firestorm to purify the bane that society drowns in), the song's subject matter has very little to do with the hardline ideology (as defined by Sean Muttaqi).
