    Pressing facts of Zero Tolerance fuel the fire

    First of all some general information about the band. The band was active around the turn of the decade from eighties to nineties. They were a Hardcore band from Buffalo, New York that released two titles. Of which the first was called Bad Blood and was released in 1989(1). As a side note it can…

    Hard to Stay Cold with these T.I.H.C. presses

    Just in is the one missing piece that was created to make my Stay Cold collection incomplete. No that’s not true, it was made for This Is Hardcore festival 2013. And it’s a well-done version I think. I’m actually so stoked about this that I’m posting it the same hour it arrived in my mailbox.…

    Turnstile Surprise

    This Is Hardcore festival ended already a week ago. Judge played there and all must have been huge. Incredible line-up but taking place in Philadelphia so I could not be there logically. Besides seeing and hearing bands live, being able to experience and judge their live energy and see the band members in real person,…

    the damned, shamed records of Terror

    No interesting talk in this post. Just pure collector’s delight. And that is it, adding a record to my growing Reaper Records collection… I’m talking about the long ago released Terror ‘Blood Tracks’ demo. This one has demo tracks for the full-length that Century Media released on compact disc and on black vinyl. Oddly Reaper…

    Backtrack dog pound nation

    “Hardcore isn’t pretty.” A phrase said to me by a hardcore veteran. And it’s true that real life Hardcore is far from pretty record covers and vinyl colours. Life isn’t pretty as well by moments, so when you live hardcore, it’s not easy to get into what he was saying to me.The following record blatantly…

    And another one that’s missing from the Reaper Records discography page… A special cover version of the Out Crowd “Just Us” seven inch. One you’ve probably never seen. Since it’s not a numbered item, it was hard to formulate a price for this. But the American dude was down with my offer. So here’s the…

    Take Offense united blood 2012

    One of my major wants up next, also from Reaper Records. The one that’s erased from the want list is a version of the latest Take Offense release, called “Under The Same Shadow”. I liked the music of this one. But I especially like the cover and the limited amount made. The one that I…

    Fire & Ice united blood 2013

    I recently bought some hot Reaper Records items from a private seller. Those items that I’m unable to buy directly and so must buy second hand. I have no problem in doing that. Always nice to talk to peeps from the United States who go to shows or fests. The following record is one I…

    Sai Nam crush

    The growing label Demons Run Amok from Germany just released three titles that I needed to buy badly. The first one I needed was the vinyl version of the first Sai Nam release. Oddly Reaper Records only released this on compact disc. But it seems that Demons Run Amok got the message and they wisely…
