Soon after, they supported it with non-stop international touring with Agnostic Front, Champion, Full Blown Chaos, and Terror. Making believers one show at a time, DBD logged almost a year and a half straight on the road before Bridge Nine was forced to release an expanded edition of Friends Family Forever as a full-length just so the band could have something new to sell.
In 2007, the release of Count Me In established Death Before Dishonor on a whole new level. Their penchant for diverse songwriting in a genre often pegged for repetition, Count Me In was praised-often by press who admittedly didn’t expect it, with Punknews saying “it's impossible to not get caught up in their level of intensity.” If that wasn’t enough, by debuting on Billboard’s Heatseekers, Independent Albums & Top New Artists charts and staying there for four weeks, DBD proved that the kids are listening. Their video for “Break Through It All” was in rotation on MTV2’s Headbanger’s Ball for over three months, and yet, people were still passing by Death Before Dishonor. DBD headlined tours nationwide and ended 2007 on the coveted Persistence Tour in Europe-headlined by Hatebreed, Agnostic Front & Ignite, and they haven’t stopped.
2008 has shown DBD supporting Count Me In all over the world including Australia, Europe, Great Britain, Mexico and Canada as well as the United States. This year proves to be the busiest for DBD and they show no sign of stopping anytime soon.

2) Death Before Dishonor was a New York hardcore band featuring Mike “Judge” Ferraro and Jimmy Yu, who went on to form Judge, as well as Jimmy’s brother Steve and vocalist Mike Ryan.

3) Death Before Dishonor is an American Hammerskin metal/hatecore band.

Peace And Quiet
Death Before Dishonor Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All the talking and nothing is solved
All the pressure - it's killing us all
All the stress in a fantasyland
It's a nightmare I can't understand

Can I get a little peace and quiet
Just a little fucking peace and quiet

There's an assault on my brain
Wave of white noise - deafening pain
Are my ears bleeding again
I can't breathe - my head's caving in

Can I get a little peace and quiet
Just a little fucking peace and quiet please
Stop right now!

Every day... the same fucking thing
Your shit attitude makes my ears ring
See my happiness slipping away
I can't stand another day

I'm choking on the air you drained
The hope away and filled it with shit
