2011 ends as a pretty strong year for new releases.

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 •…

I don’t need to explain this one. Bad Brains 171A Sessions 7″ Has anyone else noticed that a lot of Bad Brains demos are popping up the past few years? These are three versions of songs you probably know, but heavier than say the Black Dots session. A live, horrible, reggae song ends the record. Not really that essential. Waste Management Tape Members of Mind Eraser, etc doing really ILL Boston 82 hardcore ala SSD. The best part about this one is the pleading, furious, Springa style vocals. One of the best bands going today. There is a live set…

Give Self Titled LP Moon Flower Records Former members of Lion of Judah come back with this impressive debut record. Give have been hyped as sounding like Swiz, but I hear a lot of other harDCore bands like Ignition and Fire Party in their sound as well. There is a sense of heaviness, but also some melody throughout these songs. Definitely a record worth your time.

My first show of 2011, and first since the summer, had me traveling up to Asbury Park at the last minute to see a few bands I’ve been meaning to check out. After a long afternoon in my office, (someone pays me to code wikis and listen to Discharge…what a world) and a quick trip to Walmart for earplugs, where I observed a near fight, I was off to Asbury Park. Parkway North is such a mess. Potholes everywhere, construction half completed, and a massive amount of shitty drivers on the road. Can I have my taxes back? Getting to…
