the heroin thread (for hardcore addicts)

[Guest jmatsu]

heroin was the shit! anyone else like(d) gravity records?

i was addicted. i bought all the vinyl.

antioch arrow vs. heroin... hmmmm.

[keagan]

I just watched liquid sky.

Does everyone know about this film? I don't think I've heard anyone (irl or on sufu) talk about it... maybe I have.

Complete mindfuck.

[homme.homme]

fentanyl...

[Larry Bird]

gravity records!....that san diego type shits...i still play all my old 7"s on the regular.

angel hair ( werent they from colorado?)

unwound (that one-sided etched 7")

of course HEROIN 7" and that paper bag 7"

EVERGREEN....

tristeza.....

heroin over AA..no doubt..god they were good.

[ddohnggo]

fucking christ. people talking about gravity records gives me some good memories. no mention of clikitat ikatowi?

i'm going to have to go with antioch arrow. though it'd be pre-gems of masochism era.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

i still have all my heroin records

gravity was the best shit ever----------the sound still sounds fresh

i have a special place in my heart for AA's In Love with Jets record; the fucking lyrics have a psychoactive effect on me

[onemancult]

a. i loved and still love gravity records. remember fighting with people over what really constituted a "screamo" band? good times.

b. i've mentioned liquid sky before, keags. that movie's one of my faves.

c. my neck, my back.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

lick my pussy and my crack?

[ddohnggo]

crom tech, second story window, born against, 3 mile pilot, v.s.s. gravity was the best label. i say was, because the new releases ain't doin it for me. although earthless, and sea of tombs are pretty good.

[denimdestroyedmylife]

crom tech was the last gravity record for me

the second story window 7" doesn't hold up IMO

as much as i love BA, i don't consider them a gravity records band per se (though their split w/ UOA [can we start a UOA thread?] was on gravity, iirc)

this thread was basically my platform to talk about heroin (the drug) in superculture, but i am happy that we can talk about gravity records none the less.

basically anything tony joy touched was golded. uoa were gods. i loved the great unravelling as well. born against and uoa had a split together because sam mcpheeters and joy were buddies. no homo....i think.

fucking angel hair!!!!!

[LordOak]

ANGEL HAIR!!!!!!!! I have to say I am a big fan of anything that Sonny was directly invovled in.

[LordOak]

anyone into a day called zero?

for real.

i haven't even heard of earthless and sea of tombs. i enjoy some of gern blansten's new catalog though (not just the chromatics,glass candy, that watchers).

[keagan]

swing kids!

drivelikejehu!

thecrimsoncurse!

still life!

orchid!

sorry about that i just felt like name dropping.

[ddohnggo]

haha. i used to be into all of those bands. i actually saw orchid's last show ever, in this tiny room at harvard university. they played two sets because it was so tiny and kid's lined across the block to get in. too bad those guys are in panthers now, cuz they huff mad dong.

[keagan]

locust fucking suck.

eat shit.

If they didn't dress up like fucking douchebags and weren't big with the pseudo grindcore loving crowd, you would love them.

[poly800rock]

or if you knew anything about hardcore you would already know they fucking suck

[keagan]

I wouldn't really call them hardcore. But okay.

They're fun.

[ddohnggo]

they shoulda stuck with sounding like crossed out

[LordOak]

yes it was those guys. its really good stuff, take that 7" out and slip it on the table!

that sounds not quite how I want it to.

[keagan]

I like man is the bastard too. I didn't know all these bands were on this label.

[Mr Fingers]

they shoulda stuck with sounding like crossed out

I loved that shit in 96 but it's not a good look in the new millennium.

Gravity was ill. There was a time when I had every single release (up until 98 I guess). Faves were the Heroin 12", John Henry West EP, MITB, and second Antioch Arrow 12".

[arem]

Mohinder was probably my favorite band out of that scene, but that stuff never really was big on the East Coast like it was in Cali.

My band played with The Locust and Jenny Piccolo in Chicago back in 96 and those bands ripped shit. Whatever people may say about The Locust now, they were the real deal back then, with no goofy outfits.
