State of Conviction formed in 1996 and is a hardcore band with a funk background. This band was spawned from the Unified Culture song Convictions. They released a split 7" vinyl with the band Schnauzer in November of '96. SOC's side was titled Thoughts Light Fires (a tribute to Charles Manson). They then released their full-length cd, A Call To Arms, in 1997. The album has samples from the movies Natural Born Killers and Taxi Driver, as well as samples from Charles Manson. Two tracks from the album, Convictions and Abandoned, were originally Unified Culture songs. Dwid, from Integrity, does guest vocals on the tracks Convictions, Brink of Extinction, and Faith Diminished. State of Conviction has a history of only playing out once or twice a year, and a great majority of those shows were at the Phantasy or Agora Ballroom in Cleveland. They also have a history of playing shows with the band Schnauzer. SOC played their most recent show on June 7, 2003 at Peabody's Downunder.
