Show Review: Ceremony-Citizens Arrest-Leather

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…

Winter 2012 Reviews

Nomos Demo Great 82 style hardcore from this New York band. There are a lot of modern influences on this band’s demo including Cold Sweat, The Snobs, and other, hey, early 00 bands. I would like to hear more. Our Side Demo Really raw, late eighties, influenced hardcore in the vein of Release, Youth Of Today, and Four Walls Falling. With a better recording, I sense this band could be pretty good. I want to hear more. Pigsticker Demo I really like this demo. Pigsticker reminds me a cross between Circle Jerks and Necros with sloppy, raw, production values that sounds pretty authentic to the early eighties…

Citizens Arrest-Colossus: The Discography

Citizens Arrest Colossus: The Discography Double LP Nuclear War Now Records Citizens Arrest are one of the most essential bands of the late 80’s to early 90’s period when hardcore was taking a turn towards uglier, noisier, and harsher sounds. Contemporary to bands like Rorschach, Burn, and No Comment, Citizens Arrest’s sound is equal parts influenced by bands like Napalm Death and Siege, and more youth crew oriented bands like Youth of Today or Infest. This discography contains pretty much everything it could possibly contain in a very organized manner. Their lukewarm demo (includes vocals by Ted Leo, that guy…

Siege-Drop Dead

Siege Drop Dead Reissue Deep Six Records This is a reissue of this highly influental band’s recorded output. Siege played brutal hardcore that, at the time, had only been seen in bands like Void and Negative Approach. The bands influenced by Siege could go on forever: Infest, Napalm Death, Ripcord, Septic Death, Crossed Out, and so on. The reissue combines their demo (perhaps the best ever? Maybe. Raw Power & Raw Deal may have something to say about that.), their contributions to the Cleanse The Bacteria compilation plus two unreleased songs that I have heard live versions of before but…
