No Harm Done was a band from Deltona, Florida that played its last show on August 19th, 2009. It’s too bad because their third (and final) album Escape was released in 2008 and is full of some awesome hardcore pop punk hybrid that reminds me a little of (maybe) Set Your Goals. Others might say it sounds like MXPX meets Strike Anywhere, or maybe something like a way way better version of Autopilot Off. More pop punk than hardcore, Escape is filled with woah’s and propelling fast-paced rhythms and is as catchy as H1N1. Sure, this is fairly derivative but done well enough that it’s easy to get past it. Despite breaking up, the band released three songs on a split 7” with Offsides (a band that features members of No Harm Done but is in no way comparable) in 2009 as well. At least we’ll have the memories, right?

this sound takes me back to high school… where’s my skateboard?
I just happened across this when googling NHD. I played guitar in the band. Thanks so much for posting such a kind review of the album.
It’s a great album. I just call it like I hear it. But, you’re welcome. Thanks for reading.
