Bold, Breakdown, Citizens Arrest, No Contest, One Sided War, Out Cold, Wide Awake
Wide Awake did not play this show, but No Contest got added as they had two new records coming out. They were a great band from here in NJ. I do not remember anything particular about their set or Fanshen, although I swear I took pictures of them? I loaned out a lot of pictures back then and most never got back to me. One Sided War was a new band with Matt Warnke from Bold and Pat from Citizens Arrest. They sounded like later Bold, sort of, but I also thought they had a lot of influence from later…

All three “staff members” did reviews for issue two. BW=Bill Wend, John=John Piorkowski, Ferret=Justin Bragg I got a ton of shit in the weeks before that In My Eyes record came out. I got it in the mail, listened a few times, and posted one morning on the Rev Board that I did not like it. I said it reminded me of Better Than A Thousand and was kind of shitty. I went to class and came back to this huge thread about what a fag/loser/pussy I was. LOL. Oh noes, I didn’t like your precious friend’s band and their…

Things have been slow around here lately. Some of it is lack of motivation, a lot of that stems from a decent downswing in readers/listeners, but also in content. I have not had a lot to say lately for some reasons that, maybe, I will write about sometime. *** Real Cops Demo Excellent NJHC that reminds me of bands like Full Speed Ahead and Tear It Up (who members of this band were in). I see a lot of potential here. *** Sucked Dry Demo Wow, another band that sounds like Cold Sweat is a big influence on them. Obviously, other bands like Crossed Out and Rorschach are also big influences. I…

Bridge 9 Records, Ceremony, Citizens Arrest, Leather, Nirvana, Painkiller Records, Void, Youth Of Today
Now that I live in Mount Holly, Philadelphia is a 30 minute drive away. So that means I will be at shows there a lot more in the future. This was a great example: I left my apartment at 7:30 and was home by 10:30 (well, 10:45 after a trip to Wawa). I have been meaning to catch Citizens Arrest at one of their reunion shows and just haven’t gotten around to it until now. I enjoyed their reunion record (vinyl now available on Painkiller Records) and looked forward to checking them out here. They were playing with Ceremony, who…

2011 ends as a pretty strong year for new releases. Wading through the bullshit in hardcore seems to get harder and harder each year, but here is a list of the top records in various formats I enjoyed this year. Demos/Tapes/CD • Our Side • Cervix • Blessed Offal Seven Inch or Less • V/A-Brutal Supremacy Compilation • School Jerks-Control • Citizens Arrest-Soaked In Others Blood • Death Evocation-Self Titled • Waste Management-Power Abuse • No Tolerance-No Remorse, No Tolerance • Vaccine-Crimes In Blood • Mauser-End Of The Line • Give-I Am Love • Gasmask Terror-Like Daggers Longer Players •…

Full Speed Ahead at their reunion show a few months ago. I didn’t even know this happened until I saw the video on YouTube… Boston Strangler Demo Somewhere between Impact Unit and SSD (aka sounds like Fit For Abuse!) comes Boston Strangler. A quick five track demo of ugly 82 hardcore. More soon? Gone But Not Forgotten Seattle Crew Demo Hey, this is pretty good! Somewhere near Confront and Floorpunch, this demo is good Straight Edge hardcore complete with hooded edgeman on the cover. Negative Approach Friends Of No One 7″ Taang Records What is with the cover? A cartoonish…

Talk Is Poison…one of the best bands of the past 15 years… State of Alert No Policy Bootleg LP This is a pretty complete bootleg LP with all of State of Alert’s recorded material. The No Policy 7” on Dischord, the tracks from Flex Your Head, two demos, and a live set. I’ve heard all of this before, but completeists will dig having all of this in one place. Why hasn’t Dischord done a discography for them already?
