Recommended Posts

real hardcore...

the FIX

Negative Approach

Deep Wound

etc....all the early 80's DC(Dischord)/Detroit(TouchandGo)/Boston(X-Claim)/LA(SST)...none of that metal jockcore shit from the 90's trying to pass as hardcore.

Im from Korea and in Boston right now. Since 2001, I got into hardcore here.

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.

Loved it and lived it for a long time.

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.

right and wrong were always obvious.

I used to post quiet a while ago until I lost my pw.

it was like detroit bird or dabestnest or something.

b9 is garbage..

the best is when the guys from drugxtest still posted and we made a bunch of starwars fake names and posted good quotes.

It takes strength to be gentle and kind.

our favorites are--

converge

dillinger escape plan

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.

"if you want it '88 again then build a fucking time machine."

two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer.

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.
