Final Conflict is a hardcore punk band from Long Beach, California formed in 1983. They have gone through various lineup changes since then with the only constant member being their original guitar player, Jeff Harp. Currently the band's lineup includes Shane McLachlan and Calum Mackenzie of the grindcore band Phobia. Calum has also been a member in Oi Polloi, A.P.P.L.E., and Kraut.
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.
