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.

Walk Away
Death Before Dishonor Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're so quick
To manipulate you seemed so sincere
But you turned out so fake
You're so quick

To judge who you meet throwing
Around insults like you can't be beat
I'm so sick

Of all your shit breaking your word

Every chance that you get
I'm so sick
Of hearing your voice time to move on
Because you're not

Who you claim to be
Can't you understand your word
Isn't shit to me everything that I heard
Time to walk away can not

Get the best of me you're not
Who you claim to be
I look into your eyes into a world of lies
You preach so much but don't live it

I look into your eyes into a world of lies
You're fucked, you're fucked, you're fucked
I can see what you do
I can see right through you

I can see the things you say
They're bullshit to me
Who you claim to be can't you understand
Your word

Isn't shit to me everything that I heard
Time to walk away can not
Get the best of me your no
Who you claim to be

Walk away

No more I'm sick of this shit
Walk away I'm through with this
