Rebuild
Approach Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rebuild, we must jump back to the start
The scene is drowning in all this metal shit
trends and slowed down riffs do not relate to us
we're gonna make it clear that we won't take part

Instead we're putting up an active fight
Playing and singing what to us feels right
Proving to you that the spirit hasn't died
Shouting out loud! hardcore's still alive!

Rebuild, we must jump back to the start
The scene is drowning in all this metal shit
trends and slowed down riffs do not relate to us
we're gonna make it clear that we won't take part

our job is to REBUILD!
our job is to REBUILD!




our job is to REBUILD!
our job is to REBUILD!

Overall Meaning

In Approach's song Rebuild, the lyrics are a call to action for the hardcore music scene. The opening line, "Rebuild, we must jump back to the start," speaks to the idea that the scene has lost its way and needs to return to the basics. The next line, "The scene is drowning in all this metal shit," is a criticism of the direction the scene has taken, with bands focusing on trends and "slowed down riffs" that don't resonate with Approach and his peers.


Approach then makes it clear that they will not take part in this new direction, stating "we're gonna make it clear that we won't take part." Instead, they are "putting up an active fight," playing and singing what feels right to them. They want to prove to everyone that the spirit of the scene is still alive and well, shouting out loud that "hardcore's still alive!" The chorus repeats the call to action, declaring that "our job is to rebuild!"


Overall, the message of the song is one of hope and determination. Approach recognizes that the scene has lost its way, but rather than give up or follow the trends, they're taking a stand and working to rebuild it from the ground up. It's a powerful rallying cry for anyone who loves hardcore music and wants to see it thrive.

Those Alpina boys who told you not to mess with their engine outside their professional shop should be ashamed of themselves now. Great work.
