And I'm not talkin about porn.
I didn't know where else to put this post, so I guess it belongs in "Supershopper"
Since so many of us on here actually have background in the hardcore scene, let's discuss. Favorite bands? 'zines? Labels? where you from? crews and city-wise? ETC ETC
I grew up in the Inland Empire/Orange County hardcore scene, favorite bands were Gorilla Biscuits, Bold, Flagman, Chain of Strength, Youth of Today, Bane, Kiss it Goodbye, 108, Fall Silent, Path of Resistance, Snapcase, Shelter, Zao, Botch, Harkonen, Trial, and Refused, to name a few.
Reppin' PK, which was responsible for members of Burial, daizee, Throwdown, Giveuntilgone, and other southern cali hardcore.
Lookin' back on those years, my favorite thing about the hardcore scene (besides the music) was the unity, direction, the drive and energy, the activism, and political awareness. Ok, I'll let someone else talk now.

^ Is it? I completely lost touch with the "scene" a good 6 years ago. I do see a lot of these screamo bands on the circuit now that I stare at on MTV and go "heeeeyy, wait a minute... this looks familiar..."

my lil baby exposure to 'NYHC' sorta...old school show: wetlands nyc. seven bucks. not really a hardcore show, but all of the acts turned their set into some whyle out, violence in the pit shit.
No Redeeming Social Value
The Goats
Shootyz Groove
Dog Eat Dog
great fucking show. some nerds might be all 'hey, they weren't hardcore, man, no way, dude...my bands were so much morerer hardcorererer...' but i say, when the shit is loud, you are going totally ape in the crowd, and the geetar stops and then jumps back on some CHU-CHUNK-CHU-CHUNK-CHU-CHUNK-BLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW and heads is whylin out, that's a hardcore show.
but it never saved my life. not like Public Enemy did.

I guess I'm peripherally part of the current LA scene. Umm...as for bands, check out the Let's Get Rid of LA comp (though it's not hardcore) or read MRR scene reports. My fav local bands are Smogtown, Safe Inside, Alleged Gunmen, Orphans, and Street Trash, and Smut Peddlers. Probably more punk than hc tho.

06-11-2005, 09:37 AM
if kylesa is playing near any of you anytime soon i strongly suggest going to that show. best live band ive seen in years. for those of you that live in l.a. go check out the blood brothers, big business and the plot to blow up the eifel tower on the 17th at the el rey.

although i'm kind of starting to lose touch with the scene, hardcore is my fucking life!
my alltime favourite bands would have to be
bad brains (absolute f'n best band ever)
cro-mags (hardest band ever)
life of agony
burn
supertouch
dag nasty
underdog
maximum penalty
merauder
biohazard
and most of the other classic nyhc stuff... you know what i'm talking about...
i can't really get into most of the current stuff, but there's one newer band that i totally back:
www.chargeband.com
also lots of classic bands play reunion shows this year like killing time, 108, bold etc...
See I knew it.
I grew up smack dab in the middle of the 87' 88' straight edge HC scene. It did totally save my life. Kept me out of trouble, really gave me something to identify with as a 16 year old.
Saw Judge, Gorilla Biscuits, Insted, Bad Brains, AOD, Chain of Strength, Up Front, Supertouch, Burn....I could go on and on. (don't even get me started on the DC scene) shit was waayyy crazier then than now. Much smaller and shows in insane areas where you mixed with the locals and they weren't happy about it.
I'm not much of a scenester these days but I have some good friends that run labels and are in a few pretty prominant punk / HC bands. I've also done alot of work for bands over the years.
glad to see other kids with a similiar past on here.

cool to hear there are hardcore doods in here. i was a skin but grew up with the OCxHC scene in the 80s and hung out with guys from No For An Answer, Insted, Hard Stance, Head First, Half Off, etc. saw lots of the classics like Chain of Strength, Judge, Gorilla Biscuits, Swiz, etc etc. got out of hardcore by early 90s when it started to go metalcore....then got re-interested around 2000 with bands like Carry On that were bringing back the 80s sound.
nowadays i go to shows here and there...of the current crop i dig shit like Internal Affairs, Violent Minds, Knife Fight, Blue Monday, Champion...can't wait for the Carry On "reunion/official last gig" in July. crucial!

Yo Hundreds,
this is off topic but you ever get into the OC/IE SKA scene - like suburban rythm, buck-o-nine, voodoo glow skulls, back when no doubt had two singers. Ever listen to a band called Cadillac Tramps?

Oh shit. I grew up in West Covina and listened to all that. I saw Social D with Cadillac Tramps at the Barn, I think it was in like 92. The Skeletones..shit...I haven't heard them in a while.
I moved up to Chico after LA and hosted a SKA radio show and played all that OC shit. What's the name of the record store near Cal Fullerton...B somthing?

Every time I hear fashion nerds talking about hardcore, whether it be in fashion mags or Frank 151, noone acknowledges the mid-late 90's bands. Yeah yeah, bad brains blah blah cro blah mags blah, obviously legends. what about 25 ta life (one of the best NYHC bands ever) and the legendary Boston legacies of Ten Yard Fight and In My Eyes.. any fucking dork with a CBGB's shirt knows about the fucking cro-mags... shit..

imo botch was and still is on top of it, ahhh love those guys. haha, cro-mags! no ones mentioned them for ages. bad brains, sick of it all, minor threat, shai hulud, throwdown, shelter, unearth, darkest hour, bleeding through.
ive got lots of respect for the founders of this shit, but i like the direction the music is going in (well most of it). i was definitively a pantera loving, long hair rocking metal head prior getting into the hardcore. hearing some newer dare-i-say 'metal-core' acts makes me feel all warm inside.
I was big into hardcore some years ago, played in bands, booked shows etc.
For me:
Agnostic Front
Chokehold
Unbroken
Bad Brains
Morning Again
Indecision
Kill Your Idols
Converge
Grade
Burn
108
Cro Mags
Bad Brains
and so many more
Bobby, similar to you I also became very disconnected from the "scene" about 5 or 6 years ago. Its crazy to me to see kids I grew up with or hung out with on mtv all the time, not because they are some soft of celebrity but I would have never guessed that kids screaming into a microphone would have a huge commercial appeal.

evolve? i'm not sure if you're being a dickhead on purpose, but i think it's obvious that hardcore has played a big part in alot of our (supertalkers) lives (even though we didn't know it before this thread). it sounds like most of us aren't so much into it anymore...just getting a li'l nostalgic. it's not like we're talking about the "sick pit" or "killer mosh" at last night's hatebreed show. nor about the "faggot" we beat down for bumping into us. i mean, you didn't have to click on the link. maybe supershopper isn't the right arena for this topic, but i don't see how it's different from talking about movies or anything else. it's just conversation. personally, i think that stereotyping is for either kids or simpletons.

Yes, I'm 14. Actually, okay 13, but going on 14.
Look, I guess you weren't down with the hardcore set in the East Bay - oh well.
But for many of us, that's our background, and it did a lot for us in the long run.
If you grew up punk, then I guess I can say the same thing for the gutter punk crust kids shootin up outsde the clubs, or the skins who ruined many good shows, or the blah blah blah. How're you gonna go and knock an entire music subculture based on some knuckleheads who ruined your parties?
I had a lot of homeys in OBHC, and I spent a lotta time helpin out at the Gilman, and posting up with some really down hardcore kids from that neck of the woods. If you got your face kicked in by some militant cat, that sucks. But damn, you're making some crazy broad generalizations there.
oh, and i didnt even comment on this quote yet:
Quote: music that only caters to the emotions of rage and anger are for either kids or simpletons. EVOLVE
Didn't you just say you had punk background? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember Punk being rooted in flowers, tree-hugging, and care bears.

The First step, bane, have heart, verse, etc.. Lots of great bands are still active around the states. I love to go to the shows, to take a picture of them, to see nice people in the scene.
It's really nice to hear you guys in this board.

Hardcore sucks! The late 80's had a lot of good bands and since then not much has happened that's new and appealing. Since getting into hardcore I've met too many shitty people, seen tons of terrible fights, listened to some god aweful bands and delt with people thinking they are the bees knees because they know this band or have these jeans on or got into the show for free. I had some good times going places (mostly the east coast) and met a few amazing people who are still my good friends.
Straight edge only exists cause fuck ups need some place to go so they can feel cool too. Everybody needs somewhere to fit in.
Only bands in HC right now I know are friends bands. Otherwise, I don't check it out anymore.
Razzle Dazzle, Mental, Cold World, Mind Eraser, LOJ and Violent Minds
If I lived somewhere other than Detroit I'd probably feel differently.

i guess all the fashion conscious from the b9 have migrated to superfuture or something... i didn't know so many people here listened to hardcore.
i live in toronto, and have absolutely nothing to be disillusioned with right now - fucked up, career suicide, urban blight, terminal state, gunnar hansen, dirty black summer, haymaker reformed for the 5987810th time, the kill decibel. outside of here, however, i'm not really so impressed... everything is diluted.

I hardly ever post here but I think that I should in this thread...
hardcore was huge for me growing up, it really gave me something to do and I have to agree with the thought that it may have saved my life.
the bands that I have listed to over the years have been stuff like
judge
inside out
a bunch of youth crew and rev stuff
moving up in time to 90s era
drift
one eyed god prophecy
union of uranus
his hero is gone
acrid
fall silent
(its wierd...my memory is all over the place right now so I cant remember it all in order)
but I started listening to more fringy stuff about 10 years ago
angel hair
portraits of past
the vss
camera obscura (sd)
get hustle
and it just keeps going evolving devolving I always break out the classics and mix them into what I listen to now. its hard to get away from something that was such a big part of your life.
Ill still throw on some bad brains or some fucking minor threat and follow it up with king crimson then ian brown, its like you could take the kid out of hardcore but you cant take the hardcore out of the kid.

This conversation depends on your definition of hardcore so much that it is futile to try to have it in the first place. There are tons of scenes that are still as vibrant as ever that don't involve guys in girl's jeans. For fuck's sake, we've got guys who're more mindful of their next Dior Homme piece than the next 7 inch they're gonna get talking about hardcore, give me a fucking break.

There are guys from the olden days who think '81-85 until emo came out Dag Nasty , is the only hardcore.
I used to say i was into hardcore, but mainly i listened to big black and the butthole surfers , and some flying nun stuf [not the bands that influenced Pavement though].
When I heard Laibach i said i was into industrial.
Hardcore wasn't really a style of music, as far as i remember it.

Grew up with 7 seconds shows.
DK,Black Flag, X, Circle Jerks,JFA, Corrosion of conformity,Crucifucks
Minor threat,Bad Brains, Just a few of the many,many gigs I remember.
Good times,Def some SFSKINS that caused shit but just a blip on the
radar. The straight edge seen kept a lot of my friends in line but everyone
mixed it up and nobody was being judged.
Seeing people shoot up back stage at a Dr. Know gig at 16 was an eye
opener not to mention guns and shit but a life sheltered is not a life lived.

ahh takaru is sooo sick. have you heard burial year yet?
the problem with hardcore as of ohh say the past 5-10 years or so is that there is too much classification going on. bands tour their asses off, put out records left and right, etc. but don't exactly sound like minor threat so they get pushed into this realm of obscurity. too many subgenres exist. there are way too many kids still complaining about how it was better in the 80s.

dillinger n' coalesce sound more like grindcore bands than hardcore bands,
and grindcore and hardcore are two totally different things, even now that
genre distinctions are super-blurry.
there's a difference between
hardcore punk and metalcore, too.
but anyway, no need for spurring some more circular arguments.

I didn't say they were grindcore, I said their sound is stylistically closer to grindcore than hardcore.
Coalesce started off as a much more hardcore punk influenced band but by the time of their split with grindcore legends Napalm Death, they'd pretty much become too heavy, discordant, and into repetitive riff patterns to qualify as a hardcore band.
Dillinger Escape Plan may incorporate elements of hardcore, but the tempo changes and feel is much closer to grindcore and metal than punk rock and hardcore.
Everyone seems keen these days on getting their hardcore bands and their metal bands mixed up and it makes me think of times when hesher dudes would love nothing more than to beat the fuck out of hardcore kids.
How funny is it that the hot ticket right now is growing your hair kinda long, dressing like a girl, and playing this wonky-ass mix of metal and 90's hardcore?
burial year is sean and a few other guys from takaru's new band. they are going on some ridiculously long tour soon so check them out.
but i agree, i think we try keep the argument of "who thinks what is hardcore" at bay otherwise its just going to get obnoxious.
to me hardcore/punk is and never was about a band having a certain sound. its more or less a set of ethics/beliefs/whatever that shape an individual. kids can and do identify the NRA loving, republican preaching garbage that is Embrace Today as hardcore (yeah i'm sure they've toned down a hair). but hard-working and strongly DIY rooted bands like the aforementioned Takaru will get slapped with some other lame label and ignored by all the "true to the 'core" crowd. not trying to fuel any fires here so nobody take too much offense to what i say.

--- Original message by onemancult on Jan 9, 2006 06:57 PMwell im new to this hardcore thing relatively. a lot of the people here have obviously been listening to it WAY longer than i have. it doesnt really bother me when people generalize about hardcore, because a lot of it IS really similar. people could easily argue all day about whos hardcore whos grindcore whos metalcore and all that stuff.
what does bother me is when people say that any kid with straight black hair is 'emo'. basically any association with crying, depression, suicide, love, and basically any kind of antisocial behavior being labeled as 'emo' pisses me off. the word 'emo' is SO overplayed in the worst and misunderstood way.
i dont admit to knowing much about emo, but i know hawthorne heights is not. thats like, powerpop trash. i know enough to say 'fuck you' when someone calls me emo just because i wear tight pants, or because i listen to blood brothers. its rediculous what people will label as 'emo' without any knowledge of where it started.
edit-- not that anyone did that on here, im talking about what ive experienced with people around me.

^^ youre just going to have to get used to it cuz the "hardcore" fashion scene hijacked the emo look years ago and thats just how it is. youre being called it cuz thats what we've been calling kids that dress like that since it started getting popular. its not your fault, but just dont assume it has to do with the music. im also not talking crap...just stating the facts.
anyways, nothing irks me more than people calling what most of the popular bands now "hardcore". mostly the grindcore kids. its like all of a sudden in the 90's bands started playing metal but kept calling it hardcore. its like calling dancehall raggae. i was born in 81 so i wasnt old enough to appreciate much of the original hardcore and punk until i was older (my older brother was a punk so i always heard different stuff from him- dr know, gbh, dk, bad brains, exploited, minor, black flag, cromags, dayglo abortions, etc), but to me that stuff means more than any newer stuff, even the 90's stuff. lately all ive noticed is that the hardcore scene is mainly overrun with people interested in climbing a social ladder and klobbering people (k was intentional).

--- Original message by UsVersusThem on Jan 9, 2006 09:50 PMwhen people call my friends and i 'emo' i can see the connection between that and hardcore and stuff. most of us listen to sunny day real estate and stuff like that any way. i dont really blame them for that. but theres A LOT of bullshit associations, completely aside from the way we dress and the music we listen to.
i think what happens with music is that it grows and changes a lot overtime, but it came from somewhere. which is why a lot of today's "hardcore" is NOT what most of the people on this board call "hardcore". It all came from the same place, but I call most of this stuff hardcore punk, as opposed to just hardcore. But if you ask me, it's all just relative, depends who you ask, I don't think its really fair to give a certain group a really concrete title, because your bound to offend or disagree with someone.

Eff a black hoodie. Champion Reverse Weaves.
I for one, really like the wave of reunions going on lately. It's allowed me to see Gorilla Biscuits, Bold, 108, Beyond, Damnation A.D., Underdog, Lifetime, and probably a bunch of others I can't even remember right now. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Quicksand...

in my mind i've begun to relate hip hop and krump dancing to hardcore vs. the general punk movement. in a lot of ways you can see similarities, pockets of kids gathering and becomign disillusioned with their area and the mentality a lot of the kids have fallen into. there is a digression from just "anti-establishment" and instead a need or want to create some kind of community.
it is a bit of a stretch, but i think there's a lot more connections and parallels than a lot of people realize.
as a whole i still love hardcore. i can't say that i was around during the 80's, scene during the 90's, and i don't even call myself straight edge. but why should i have to to be, in order to be able to enjoy something? why should my birth year or my ethnicity, or my clothing, any of it separate me from what i like? that's what i hate about hardcore-- that closed minded centralized structure.
i think as a whole i just hate stereotyping and labels. i understand the psychological responses to "schemas" and what not-- but there's a huge difference between being an asshole and being a human.

you know what? hc is so fucking cool its not even funny. if you look at the cro mags or raybeez RIP or richie cipriano or reagan youth 1988 or any of that shit you just cant fuck with it. all the cocksmokers on this board who just got into comme des garcons and t shirts last year and are trying to get over ninja tunes, trying to find something cooler than nudies and pretending theyre too cool for sneakers when they were buying SB classics last year will never even touch or understand what style truly is.
hc is straight up the coolest shit in the world, even when its fucking gay like it is now, even when so many hc kids suck so hard (which i aint sayin they do, but face the facts, its pretty gay now), when so many bands were so disappointing and failed in the biggest way, theres no girls, no money in it but it is so fucking good that you just cant touch it man, even when it sucks it doesnt compare to when its so fuckin ill.
my life gets worse every day but i will always get by on another day when i think of how fucked id be if i hadt gotten into hc, how many good things hc has done for me, how many cool people i met and how lucky i am to have found it. straight up its the illest, geto boys 1989 cash money 1999 is some fly fly shit but you cant fuck with enn why aiche see

I guarantee you that a lot of the people into hardcore actually don't love the Cro-Mags as much as they say they do; obviously, they'll never admit it.

I should've included the word "now" in my post when saying "into hardcore (now)." Ah well.
Where I'm from, people openly say the word "nigga" as a friend, again tying in the whole hip-hop affiliation. I'm pretty sure there's no racism in the scene here in Boston; if there was, it'd get stomped immediately, I assume. Homphobic... maybe. I don't personally know anyone in the scene who is gay, or anyone who just hasn't come out with it... I'm sure there are some though.

didnt realize some of you guys were from hardcore...kinda funny how people evolve.
i used to go to every show back in high school...from 93 to about 97 or so...in nyc, i guess it was the 3rd wave of nyhc. was in the pit with ray beez from warzone, saw sheer terror, no redeeming social value, crown of thornz, 108, leeway, murphys law.
i was more straight edge in high school which was dumb as shit in retrospect but it did keep me out of trouble. i was pretty turned off by the chuga chuga metalcore/gangsta stuff like madball and skarhead but it was all pretty fun.
all the nyc clubs closed down and so did the scene. i kind of hated that i missed gorilla biscuits at cb's last summer but spending $200 to see them just doesnt seem right.

Quick i need some definitions:
straight edge, (insert-cd here) saved my life, and other so called hard-core terms.
Im ignorant as fcuk and would like to know.
straight edge has different meanings for different people. most people who consider themselves sxe are "drug free", and dont have promiscious sex.
i have met others who think that straight edge is "politics", seeing not just drugs, alcohol, and sex as distractions, but also meat/dairy consumption, as well as placing your hopes in a paticular politcal party or religion. in other words, some think being straight edge is the willingness to abstain from all vices in the world, in a kind of nirvanic way.

i never saw much difference between the jock/herd mentality that permeated much of the hardcore scene and the jock/herd mentality that the football/cheerleader types gave off. just different uniforms.
you know when ian mac kaye wrote "straight edge" he was also referring to the false tough guy bravado that so many in the hardcore scene fronted. he never intended for it to become a rallying cry for a bunch of thuggish and hardline (sxe) behavior.
on the other hand the unity and political awareness of both the hardcore and punk scenes was very inspiring so when someone says "hardcore (or punk or ska or metal or skateboarding etc..) saved my life, i fully understand what they mean.

last week i dug up the Econochrist "skewed" 7"------read along with the lyrics; strange, i agree absolutely, but i've been living in bad faith
read the last issue of "no answers" that was included with the 7"-------kent mcclard's existential rant rang true, but he called out a former friend for "selling out" and i ended up feeling rather indignant
we all have to find our own way through life; i can sleep at night----a decent barometer
oh, and i dug up the hoover/lincoln split 7"; realized it was the first art monk construction release.

i like how kent mcclard was all hung up about how 'he named' rage against the machine.

Ebullition Records is an independent record label and distro (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distro) based out of Goleta (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goleta), California (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California). It publishes HeartattaCk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HeartattaCk), a 'zine focusing on independent punk and hardcore from around the world which is informed by an anti-consumerist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-consumerist) and D.I.Y. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D.I.Y.) ideology.
[edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ebullition_Records&action=edit§ion=1)]
History
In early 1990, former Maximum RocknRoll (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_RocknRoll) columnist Kent McClard started Ebullition Records with contributions from Sonia Skindrud (writer of Exedra 'zine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zine)) and Brent Stephens (member of Downcast). Skindrud came up with the name, and Stephens drew the logo, however the label is primarily run by McClard.
Los Angeles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles) metalcore (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalcore) band Inside Out (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Out) was meant to record an LP as the first Ebullition release. However, Revelation Records (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revelation_Records) asked them to release a 7" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7%22) instead, and the band chose the more established label. The record wasn't released for another year, after the band had broken up and reformed as Rage Against The Machine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rage_Against_The_Machine)
Incidentally, Inside Out did plan to do a second record called "Rage Against the Machine", which was a phrase Kent coined in some writings he did for the 'zine No Answers #9. They never managed to finish this second release and singer Zack de La Rocha (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zack_de_La_Rocha) ended up using the phrase for the title of his next band.
Ebullition's first release came out in late 1990. Kent had been doing No Answers 'zine since 1983 and the ninth issue came with the Downcast 7" (Ebullition #1). Ebullition released 3,000 copies of No Answers #9 with the Downcast 7" and after those were sold the 'zine and 7" became separate products.
downcast------THAT was a band. i forgot about them entirely.

my friend goes to grad school at brown with Ani who sang for manumission. they released a few records on ebullition.
denimdestroyedmylife
08-28-2006, 05:29 PM
manumission! i did distro for a short time (mainly ebullition; just so that i could get free records for myself, use them to trade for other 7"'s at shows, and hook up my friends), and the binary lung 7" was one of the records i used to hock. sweet memories.
i think the first 7" i ever bought was SAWHORSE (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300020655889&category=306); purchased from a small box of 7"'s in zipperhead on south street, philadelphia, when i was in junior high
This is gonna sound odd but does anyone know about the u.k. band 'Bob Tilton' or their later incarnation '(wolves) of greece'?
denimdestroyedmylife
08-28-2006, 05:50 PM
yeah! i still have a couple BOB TILTON 7"'s; i've never met anyone else that even heard of them; waaaay out there for that time in hardcore; awesome packaging, even.
i don't know "wolves of greece", though; probably came out after i sort of lost interest in this music
my turn:
anyone remember ASSFACTOR 4 from NC?-----their drummer sat on a cooler and they all sang (screamed); i saw them twice or thrice and they have been extremely memorable shows; i wouldn't sell their records for anything

thought you said the japanese thrash band ASSFORT for a second. seriously, how great was Orchid?

08-28-2006, 07:56 PM
pretty good. i saw them a few times, once with the blood brothers a long time ago in seattle, once at fort thunder, and saw their last two sets at harvard. good times.

denimdestroyedmylife
08-28-2006, 08:17 PM
i kept the records that meant most to me at the time:
indian summer
current
chino horde
UOA
most of the gravity stuff
the more interesting bands
i wish i'd kept more of the heavier stuff; i got rid of ALL the SXE records (sadly)
oh well
i'll shut the fuck up now...

i still have a lot of my records. i've only really sold records that i've had doubles of.
i still love the gravity era hardcore stuff. antioch arrow, angel hair, clikitat all kill me every time i hear them.
denimdestroyedmylife
08-28-2006, 08:28 PM
^^ true; the gravity records bands make me wish i was in a band again every time i hear them
the 7" format is perfect; bands like mohinder made them feel like full lengths; you really cut out all the crap when you know the clock is ticking
yeah! i still have a couple BOB TILTON 7"'s; i've never met anyone else that even heard of them; waaaay out there for that time in hardcore; awesome packaging, even.

Thats cool, I used to work with their singer, Simon, really really nice man. We worked in a record store together and was in awe of their music. Not my thing at all but i could see how amazing they were. I had heard they were known in the 'right' circles (played with Shellac etc...). I used to deal with Kent at ebullition too, again nice man.
Wolves only released one 10" ep, one side of lost, yet direct emotion that blows pretty much anything else in the area away, amazing. If there are any mp3s out there I would recommend anyone to take a listen to any Tilton or wolves, stunning music, like ddml said, way ahead of their time and live they were better than anyone!

i should probably just get googling, but did tilton release anything after their first two 7"'s?
oh NM, i just found this (http://www.southern.com/southern/band/BOBTI/biog.html)
i should re-listen to those records, its been a long time
thanks!

at a certain point in time, the bands on Gravity records were the only hardcore bands worth listening to. that point in time started awhile ago, and has yet to end.

my perverse sense of self-service is excited that t-shirt companies are now making hardcore references, because i don't get most of the hip hop ones. YOT is corny as shit. i love this band, but i don't see how any brand could pull it off (though i invite someone to post picture of said item to prove me wrong)
