Here we go, filling a request. This is a collection of 7 inches and comp tracks from the mighty Indecision, released by Belgian label, Released Power Productions, in 1998 and is long out of print. This was ripped at 320 kbps and another regular (Cory I think, sorry if Im wrong) sent me the scans of the layout. The insert gives a detailed run down of which tracks appeared on which release. A great look at Indecision's beginning. *NEW LINK* Indecision...

Heres a scan of the original layout for the True Love (The Promise) demo that was recorded in 2001 would later see a proper release through Deathwish Inc. Another Victim played their final show at Hellfest 2001 and they opened with these 2 songs. They had a small amount of these demos and were handing them out after their set. I got one later and was seriously blown away. Please note: THE SONGS ARE NOT POSTED TO DOWNLOAD. You can still order the...

After arriving home from a great weekend on the Oregon coast with my wife, I got some of the worst possible news I could hear. Last night, Brian Redman died in a car crash in Tacoma. Brian was one of the first people that I met when I started regularly driving up to shows in Seattle with my friend Conrad. At the time, he was playing bass in a band called Left With Nothing. In 1999, and the reunion shows, he played bass for Trial. There was also...

Another great record that's not all that easy to find on the web. Process was an early '90s Southern California melodic hardcore band featuring Shawn Connell (Pillsbury Hardcore, Pissed Happy Children, End To End) on guitar and Erik "Egg" Egan (End To End, CAMPAIgN) on vocals. VERY underrated in their day. Enjoy.Process - World Of Fire LP [1992 - Conversion Records]http://www.mediafire.com/?anmdspmo...

My dear friend, Mr. Kyle Score of Even the Score Records and Zine, sent me a package the other day full of old zines to scan. Well I got started on it and heres a gem out of Syracuse circa 1992-1993ish written and illutrated by Shane Durgee of Framework, Gatekeeper, etc. It claims to be the first straight edge comic...is it? I dont know. But its still cool to see. Its funny how he props out his band, Gatekeeper, in the comic. I scanned the whole...

I spoke to my friend Kyle, sometimes author of Even the Score zine and owner of Even the Score Records, and he passed on the info that at the Day of Suffering reunion this weekend, he will have a limited reunion 7 inch. This 7 inch will have special covers and are hand numbered out of 50. There is anticipation that it will sell out at the show but if it doesnt, shoot him an email and you can buy it directly from him. It will be on sale at the show...

Well, it’s been a few months but here is an interview that I did with hardcore hero Dave Smalley, the singer/frontman of Down By Law, Dag Nasty, DYS and ALL. Taking a cue from the fine gentlemen over at Double Cross, I have decided to break this interview up into parts, this being part 1. A big part of the reason for that is because as of right now, I have only listened to the first DBL album and I wanted to wait until I’ve listened to their entire...

Here we have the Voice of the Voiceless compilation that was released in 1991 by Smorgasbord Records and later released on CD by Doghouse Records. While nowadays, compilations seem to be a thing of the past, this was a good one when it came out (no I didnt get it when it came out). Great lineup of bands including Split Lip, Endpoint, Youth of Today, Shelter, Worlds Collide, and more singing songs about vegetarianism and veganism. Also notable that...

Someone requested some live Culture so here we are. This was recorded on their last European tour and includes a never before released song "Pimping the Revolution". The sound quality is pretty good but the first track cuts off the first 2 minutes of the song. That was how I downloaded it so if anyone has the entire song, let me know.Culture - Live in Berlin, Germany 1998http://www.mediafire.com/?0vaj3je2...

For those of you who know me, know a few things about musically...I love all things Morrissey, straight edge and Syracuse Hardcore. Well when I heard the Path of Resistance record when it came out in 1996, I was blown away. The record still destroys every other band that tries to pull off the 3 singer attack and even 13 years later, the record still holds its ground. Anyway, as I got older and the internet became a great way to find out information...

Add yet another CD to the already HUGE stack of CDs released by former Gamefacer and current Goodtimeser & Your Favorite Trainwrecker Jeff Caudill. This new CD is an excellent collection of demos, home recordings, covers and "neglected tracks". Among the many bands covered: Sense Field, Big Drill Car, Jawbreaker, Bad Religion and (Chip'll like this) Morrissey. Acoustic and demo versions of songs by all of Jeff's bands are also included, making...

I tried poking around the interwebs for extra information about this Breakout Records compilation from 1999, and I came up with nothing. So, I'll just have to give a play-by-play from memory about the comp and the bands.1. ABOVE THIS WORLD was fronted by Mikey Hood. Old style "cali hardcore"2. ADAMANTIUM this recording of the song "virus" was from a different session than the one that ended up on When it Rains..., and I honestly like this version...

Information courtesy of Lambgoat:Poison The Well had their van and trailer (including all of their gear) stolen in Detroit following the first show of their tour with Billy Talent. The band does indeed have insurance, and they will resume the tour in a day or two. Here's a statement from the group:"So this morning we woke up at our delightful Marriot Courtyard hotel (Priceline, get into it) and walked outside to get in the van to head to Chicago for our second show of the tour. Only problem, it isn't there. Either someone is pulling some Merlin...

Today I bring you the original layout for Poison The Well's "Distance Only Makes The Heart Grow Fonder" which was originally released on Goodlife Recordings. This record was later re-released on Undecided Records with a new layout and 2 bonus live tracks. A few interesting notes about the layout include a mistake in the members department. Andrew Abramowitz who would later play in the band The Distance played bass, not Jeronimo Gomez. Also if you...

Todd D. Trout, guitarist and co-founder of the ‘90s Southern California pop punk mainstay Gameface, is back with New Liars Club and he has brought along former Gameface members Steve Sanderson (drums) and The Tank's Guy Julian (bass) for the ride. Guitarist Kevin Chen, formerly of The Supertones, and The Tank singer Ken Conte round out the lineup. The result is catchy as hell power pop for the 21st century. Damn good stuff. http://www.myspace.com/newliarsclub...

For my first official post as a member of the team, I wanted to write about a band that was important to me in the 90's, and that was/ is relatively unknown.Remain IS 90s hardcore. Emotional music, thought provoking lyrics, mid-tempo hardcore that is full of passion and is not pretentious or forced. Musically, it sounds like Ashes, later Outspoken, even later Turning Point. Lots of octaves, melody, no real "break downs" per se. This was the time...

In honor of the "Straight Edge Means I Have No Friends" tshirt I have coming in the mail, I thought it would fun to take a look back at the old Andrew Thomas Company catalog. Unfortunately, I lost mine many years ago when I had 3 bags full of zines accidentally thrown out. Fortunately, Bridge 9 user Evan D answered my call and scanned in the images for me and sent it as a download. I still have a few of the designs but this seriously takes me back....

I heard Ghost Ship actually for the first time today and was definitely into it. For me, its getting harder and harder to find current bands that I enjoy, especially in the vocal department. But Ghost Ship made a believer out of me. They've just recorded a demo/EP and will be releasing that soon. Just prior to recording, they recruited ex-Another Victim drummer Tony Tornabene to round out the lineup. The quality of the demo is perfect, everything...
