Morning Again / 25 Ta Life split 7 inch
Read more: Morning Again / 25 Ta Life split 7 inchThe Morning Again and 25 Ta Life split release is an awkward one. Besides the fact that in 1998 both bands were on Good Life Recordings and the fact that they are both American Hardcore bands, they have nothing in common. But because they were on tour together in 1998, this release does makes sense.…

Read more: Joy Division "Unknown Pleasures" LPJoy Division again, but this time their other LP, called “Unknown Pleasures”. I told you I am on a Joy Division trip.

Just another super group? And as if that wasn’t enough, Revelation Records release it? I still bought it on vinyl and I must say I was biased. Because I see World Be…

Judge bringin’ it down on purple
Read more: Judge bringin’ it down on purpleI’m so happy to be able to pick this one up finally. For many just a repress by Revelation. But for me rather special because I don’t usually pick up Revelation stuff. Revelation decided to repress the Judge LP on colored vinyl along with a black pressing on 180 grams vinyl. They had a good…

Better Than A Thousand LP on grey
Read more: Better Than A Thousand LP on greyBetter Than A Thousand were a positive Hardcore band during the late-nineties, with Ray Cappo on vocals. They were a welcome breath of positivity between all the metalcore bands that had a darker mindset. I never checked them out when they were playing.
