Final Conflict is a hardcore punk band from Long Beach, California formed in 1983. They have gone through various lineup changes since with the only constant member being their original guitar player, Jeff Harp. Currently the band's lineup includes 3/4 of the Original 1988 "Ashes to Ashes" Record lineup, Ron Martinez (Vocals), Jeff Harp (Guitar), Warren Renfrow (Bass), Drummer Nick Manning are the current core lineup. Shane McLachlan of the grindcore band Phobia is an active member as replacement bassist.
Final Conflict is regarded as one of the first extreme hardcore punk bands from the Los Angeles/Orange County area. They incorporated a British-style hardcore punk rock at a time when the punk rock scene was at its weakest popularity. Their perseverance and dedicated fan base helped spark a Los Angeles and Orange County punk rock revival of sorts during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Final Conflict have stayed active and relevant thru the years touring and releasing new material. In 2013 Final Conflict reunited the "Ashes to Ashes" lineup for the Chaos in Tejas Festival and have since played dates in Austin Texas, Los Angeles, Long Beach and San Diego CA.
