    Defeater letters home LP

    I’ve been ignorant to Defeater way too long. It was in a conversation between Ed Good Life and me that I became aware about Defeater’s work and impact. I was making the statement that no great records and or classics were made nowadays. Then Ed replied about the change that Defeater had made in Hardcore.…

    V/A Land Of Greed… World Of Need LP

    I finally found a good prized and fine condition copy of this LP. I needed it because the songs A1 and B1 are actually H8000 bands that were covering their song of the Embrace s/t LP on Dischord. As you already knew, Embrace is a band that has Ian MacKaye on vocals. For those who…

    DYS self-titled LP

    Boston Hardcore might not be so sublimated as New York Hardcore or (Washington) DC Hardcore, but still there are some legendary records made in Boston. I’m thinking about SSD “The Kids Will Have Their Say”, with the most iconic Hardcore Punk LP cover ever made in my opinion. But also the SSD “Get It Away”…

    Ceremony Society Verse book review

    Unless you are just entering Hardcore, you’ve probably already heard of the band Ceremony. Well that band was on the top of the American hardcore billboard for years, every release was highly anticipated and pre-orders made the computer systems almost crash. They also came to Europe several times. They started out with the ‘Ruined’ ep…

    Burning Fight book review

    In follow-up to the previous posts about ways of documenting Hardcore, this post is about one of the already existing books. Burning Fight by Brian Peterson is about 90’s hardcore. He writes parts by himself but the main talking is done by those who were involved on the spot. The concept of the book has…

    No zodiac population control LP

    No zodiac population control LP

    Figured to have a look inside the negative side of modern Straight-edge hardcore or beatdown. One can’t ignore the fact that kids buy this, listen to this and actually think this meaningful or valuable to them. An evolution that raises many questions to me as an older person. In this article I’m not trying to…

    Collectors craft work

    A week ago I got a bunch of used mailers delivered from a friend collector. He almost never sells so he doesn’t need all the mailers he gets from purchases. I was thankful and just finished a job that needed cutters, judgment of criteria and lots of used mailers. And photo camera and laptop to…

    Angel Du$t xtra raw

    After listening to this music for the first twenty seconds I was interrupted by a phone call. But the tune stayed stuck in my head for the next hour. When I listened to it properly, I mean at ease and the entire ep at once, I was very surprised about it. Perfect to say at…
