Sworn Enemy is a crossover thrash/metalcore band from New York City. They are managed by Tim Lambesis from As I Lay Dying. The band formed in 1997 as Mindset, a product of the extremely expansive and influential New York Hardcore scene. Since its inception the band has centered around vocalist Sal Lococo and guitarist Lorenzo Antonucci. The band's early output as Mindset was limited to a demo, an appearance on the New Found Hope II - The First Amendment compilation CD, and a 3 song 7 inch named State Of Mind. Soon after the State Of Mind release, another band named Mindset appeared on the underground metal scene, having existed as Mindset before the Queens Mindset. Therefore, Sal and crew changed their name to Sworn Enemy. Current members Sal Lococo - Vocals Lorenzo Antonucci - Guitar Jamin Hunt - Guitar Sid - Bass Jerad Buckwalter - Drums.
