The Banner is a musical group from New Jersey with influences that range from late '80s hardcore punk, punk rock, heavy metal and NYHC-style metalcore.

The Banner broke up for a brief period in 2006 before reuniting with (now estranged) founding member Garrett Defalco. The band is currently writing their next album, Frailty: The Hellbound Heart, which is to be recorded and produced at the Machine Shop studio in Hoboken, New Jersey and released on the Ferret Music label.
