1) A nerdcore ban… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least 2 bands with the name Dual Core
1) A nerdcore band with members from England and US

1) int eighty and c64 are... Dual Core.
Actually they are just two guys. int eighty is a programmer in Cincinnati, Ohio; and c64 is a graphic designer in Greater Manchester, England. They originally met several years ago on an underground hip hop website. "His beats made me want to rap, and he quickly became one of my favorite producers," recalls eighty in regards to c64's production.
In the spring of 2007, Dual Core released their first album entitled Zero One. Zero One featured the single Hostage Down, a fun song about the game Counter-Strike. The up-tempo instruments and rhythm, combined with the amusing punchlines and catchy chorus, made the song an immediate hit. It is currently being distributed to college and online radio stations for further play.
Released in 2009, Dual Core's album Next Level added to the duo's greatest hits with top tracks such as I Remember, and Forever. Afterwards, in 2012, their most recent album was released titled All the Things which has gained a lot of popularity over the past few months.

Dual Core is comprised of two nuclear fission reactors who go by the name of Adi Milner and Eran Ben Gaon. Both artists have had successful solo careers, recording and performing around the world as Backspace (that's Adi) and Point that's Eran.
As the saying goes'two heads are better than one' and so they decided to pool their talents and become 'as One'...a Dual Coretwice as potent!
What we can say with certainty is that these two fellows share the common aim to stimulate the senses, to enliven the mind, and to free up the body with music that is fiery, hot and explosive on the dance-floor.

Hostage Down
Dual Core Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
we got 4 hosties, let's get em home safely
CT squads wreckin whole brigades
with an M4, a knife, and smoke grenades
Ask the same questions get the same answers
it's Dual Core, we're not some lame campers
Died in a cheap trap, let's get a rematch
rushed out of spawn and got hit with a team flash
Discard the guns giv em my real credit
rhyme skill legend with a knife kill fetish
pwn these n00bs and watch the strong fall
come play Office, we'll meet in Long hall
Nickname "dead-eye", loaded and cocked
my Deagle sends a round through the scope on your AWP
Big guns, small arms, doesn't even matter yet
you're the type to jump, crouch, hide in the cabinets
Just tell them now they better hit the ground
all you hear is
Whether Office, Dust, Aztec, or Lounge
all I hear is
So the terrorists gettin' the message now
all you hear is
Dual Core, man, we're the best in town
all I hear is
Add six kills only pulled five shots
with an aimbot chop I copped from myg0t
VAC's about (mmmm) three months back on these cheats
so blast on the maps that start with de
Kids wanna cry about even teams
plus the first dust really cheats the Ts
My single pump shottie's on all-night spree
time to plant, meet me at bombsite B
Just tell them now they better hit the ground
all you hear is
Whether Office, Dust, Aztec, or Lounge

So the terrorists gettin' the message now

Dual Core, man, we're the best in town

they messed up something? blame it on Turtle Rock
I don't play Italy, there's too much crime there
the Ts camp apartments like owning time shares
Bomb on Congo, dusk to dawn
spray poolday, love custom mods
Might pick up a 90 or knife for slicING
but won't pay the dynamic weapons pricING
The Deagle and Scout, that's my forte
you rush B, I'll flank short A
Screw dust2, what you want trouble for
get flashed in the tunnel? Sniped through the double doors?
Twenty-six-hundred, seven-four defeats
the number of people I killed with dual 'leets, do the math
(dual lites.. leet being 1337, so 2 x 1337 = 2674)
Just tell them now they better hit the ground

The song "Hostage Down" by Dual Core is a tribute to the popular first-person shooter game Counter-Strike. The lyrics describe the player's experiences in the game and their strategies for winning matches. The first verse talks about evading terrorists and rescuing hostages, while the second verse mentions using different weapons and tactics to defeat opponents.
Throughout the song, Dual Core boasts about their skills and reputation as a skilled player in the game. They reference popular maps in the game such as Office and Dust, and joke about the game's glitches and cheating problems. The chorus repeats the phrase "hostage down" and the sound of gunfire, emphasizing the violence and intensity of the game.
Interestingly, the song also includes references to real-life issues such as terrorism and crime. The lyrics "I don't play Italy, there's too much crime there" suggest a real concern for safety, while lines like "we got 4 hosties, let's get em home safely" show a desire to protect innocent lives.

@HisVirusness
int eighty, a few hours ago, you handed me a card with a YouTube comment on it before you went on stage over by the merch stand at Beat Kitchen. Didn't know what to make of it.
After your set, and especially this song (and The Commandments), I have another comment for you:
This shit is fire, even if the plebs don't get it. It ain't for them!
@SleepyWarCriminal
“We’re not some lame Cammpers”
“Add 6 kills only fired 5 shots”
“Kids wanna cry about uneven teams”
“Flash threw the tunnel, Snipe through the double doors”
