Record Review: Beg For Life - Doomed

I had never heard of Beg For Life until last summer with the exception of my friend Luis who was into them. The band is from Yuma, Arizona and was on tour with The Hoods. Luis told me they sound like Disembodied...I've heard that so many times since the band got back together so I figured I'd go to the show to hang out and see. I went to my car for one reason or another as they were setting up and I heard the band begin, opening up with "Seven Stitches"...

One King Down "More Hate Than Fear" - Live in San Francisco

Again, I apologize for my lack of content lately but Ill be back in town tomorrow so posting will commence more steadily on my end. I came across this video of Albany's favorite sons, One King Down, tearing the roof off of the Cocodrie in San Francisco. There's no date given but we can assume its either the late 90s or early 2000's based on the fact that the band was playing as a 4 piece. They would have been touring off of "Gravity Wins Again" with Matt Wood taking over on drums after Derrick Van Wie left and joined Another Victim/True Love/The...

Triggerman - Dead Like Me (1992)

Somebody requested this a couple of weeks ago or so, so here it is. For more on this criminally underrated band, check out their Myspace. Enjoy.Triggerman - Dead Like Me [1992 - Workshed Records]http://www.mediafire.com/?2zxlmmyv...

Ashlar (Belgium)

As Kindred was winding down, the band that quickly became their metalcore-successor in the Limburg area of Belgium was Ashlar. They took Kindred's sound and added an 'evil' element to it, as corny as that may sound. They were more metal than Kindred, with a singer who was nothing short of a maniac on stage. Chewing on the occasional blood-capsule, rolling away his eyes till only the white showed, it was a bit ridiculous even back then but few people...

Quick Update

Hey everybodyJust wanted to apologize for not posting much lately. I just got into Miami to surprise my folks so my activity again will be limited. I did bring my harddrive so Ill try and have something for you guys tomorrow. Also if you have a chance, check out the Stuck In The Past webstore. Ill have a complete list of the in stock items I have tomorrow so please be patient. Also being that I am in Miami until the 27th, if you place an order I will not be able to fill it until I return to Tallahassee. Lots of great hardcore in there so please...

Land of Greed... World of Need - A Homeless Benefit Compilation (1994)

Some of the finest '90s hardcore bands came together in the mid '90s to record this benefit compilation consisting of the entire Embrace self-titled album. Embrace was one of Ian MacKaye's post-Minor Threat and pre-Fugazi bands. Many people (myself included) consider the Embrace album to be MacKaye's best pre-Fugazi work.Land of Greed... World of Need [1994 - Watermark/Trustkill Records]1. Nations On Fire - "Give Me Back"2. Current - "Dance Of...

TAFKATA - WORKER and PARASITE

A truly excellent musical find that I made this past week is TAFKATA's WORKER and PARASITE album. Featuring two former members of the very prolific '90s grindcore staple Enewetak, vocalist Forrest Locke (interview with him coming soon) and bassist Toby Sterrett (on drums in TAFKATA), along with vocalist Brock Elmore, bassist Hugh Blake and guitarist Eddie Bermudez, TAFKATA takes up where Enewetak left off and adds a good deal more Southern fried...

Classic Layouts: Congress - Blackened Persistence (1st Pressing)

Congress, to my knowledge, really were the band that put the H8000 scene on the map in the 90s (if Im wrong, someone correct me). To be honest, I don't even know if the re-release of this record has a different layout other than the cover. The repress has an up close shot of the wizard (yes I said wizard). The original shows the entire painting which was used on the vinyl cover. You can see what the repress looks like by clicking here. The CD cover...

Sick Of It All - Live In A World Full Of Hate

How this hadn't been uploaded yet is just beyond me. In my opinion, this is the best live hardcore record ever recorded in terms of energy and overall sound quality. I mean, cmon...its Sick Of It All. This was recorded in 1993 after Just Look Around had come out and they blow through everything you could want to hear from that era of the band as well as cover of Minor Threat's Betray, which was released on their We Stand Alone EP. 24 tracks spanning...

ICE's cover of Quiet Riot's "Metal Health" (1992)

This cover originally appeared on the Bus Vol. 1 - A Southern California Compilation 7" EP released on Drew Traulsen's very fine Jester Records label in late 1992. A review of the EP on the FLEX! discography of US punk & hardcore described the cover as "terrible heavy rock". We can only assume that they're referring to the original.http://www.mediafire.com/?znoklmjw...

Mother Earth - A Straight Edge Hardcore Compilation

Here's a compilation from 1997 that flew under the radar a bit at the time, but shouldn't have. It was the first release by Impression Records, a label from Germany which would later on release records from bands such as Endstand, Extinction, Caliban, Burst and Shed. This compilation, 'a benefit for imprisoned animal liberators' as it says on the back, features a stylistically fairly wide mix of bands from all over the globe, from the USA to New...

Bloodlet Interview

Bloodlet is one of my all time favorite bands. I scanned this interview from The Tribute fanzine, from Florida (Chip may have some info on the zine, i do not)It's kind of a cool interview is cool because it kind of goes a little deeper and lets you see what the members of the band were about. Kind of "demystifies" them. Also, it explains what a couple of songs are about. Enj...

Bird Of Ill Omen "Self You Dare Still Breathe" Tshirt

The Bird, as we called them, we one of the most chaotic live bands I'd ever seen. They seriously tore up every show they played, throwing themselves around and just going all out insane. This was another band that Damien Moyal (Culture, Morning Again, As Friends Rust) was a part of at the start. We used to say that if he was involved in the band they were going to be good (resume includes Culture, Morning Again, Shai Hulud, As Friends Rust...you...

Aspire covering Outspoken's "A Light In The Dark"

If you read my review on the records I received from Self True records, you would know that I am bonkers over Aspire. They are one of the best new bands out there right now (Ill have their record for sale very soon) and they love Outspoken. They covered the song "A Light In The Dark" last year at a show and someone recorded it and put it on youtube. Check it out...Im hoping to have their record available this week so Ill have a post when I receive ...

The Rebirth of Hardcore 1999

Possibly the last great comp to come out in the 90s, this was put together by Ray Cappo and released on his Supersoul imprint. Featuring some of the best youth crew revival bands of the 90s, this comp was released also as a beautiful picture disc. Unfortunately, this comp has been out of print for a while which is terrible. Almost everything on this comp is exclusive and features one of the best covers (Where Fear and Weapons Meet covering 7 Seconds...

Attn: non-US residents

Do you run a label or play in a band that is based outside of the US? If so, I want to hear from you. Through doing this blog, Ive met so many kids from around the world who play in bands that are unable to be heard because they have no distribution in the US. Ive started a webstore http://stuckinthepast.bigcartel.com/ to change that exclusively selling foreign bands releases. if you run a label please shoot me an email with your distro and wholesale prices. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you.Chipxstuckinthepastx@yahoo....

Snapcase: Full Live Set in Syracuse, 1994

A wonder gentleman by the name of Todd sent me the link to this. A full live set of Snapcase rocking the Lost Horizon in 1994, right after Lookinglasself came out. Everything you would want to hear from that era is played here to a crowd that is going nuts. Also, as was the staple of the time, John McKaig gives a speech before they played. Great man and great b...

Uprising (pre-Green Rage) - Demo

Heres the demo for the band that would become Green Rage. I honestly don't know much about it...I also do not have a scan of the cover so if you have it and want to contribute it, let me know. Its been quite a while since Ive heard this but its in that Green Rage vein...you know, loads of divebombs, animal rights lyrics, breakdowns. Check it out EDIT: Poi from the band Rot In Hell was nice enough to scan the cover of the demo and send it on over...

SYWH covers 90's screamo

Sergeant D over at Stuff You Will Hate has recently made a post about 90's screamo. Detailing some of the big names of the era, and many of the scene's absurdities, some lolz are definitely brought. Even though the two of us will never see eye to eye on Chokehold, I'm not too sure how he could lump them into the screamo thing when they just played chugga chug hardcore and didn't cry on stage.Head on over to SYWH and check out the po...

Record Reviews: Self True Records (Moscow)

My friend Vasya sent me these as promos last month and basically life got in the way so here I am, finally, with the reviews. Russia is really starting to come up and become a noticeable force in hardcore with American bands making the trek over on tour and new bands popping up. Vasya, vocalist for Verdict, runs Self True Records based out of Moscow and is helping to get recognition for their small but burgeoning scene. If you like what you hear...

A Chorus of Disapproval - The Italian 7" (1993) layout

I apologize for being a bit of a post whore lately but I'm still unemployed and am trying to cram in as many posts now before I get another job and am back in the grind. Today, I proudly present the layout for the great A Chorus of Disapproval EP entitled The Italian 7". This beast was originally released in 1993 and wound up being the final Chorus record. Being Evan Jacobs' brother provided me with the opportunity to hang out quite a bit with...

Skull Crusher - this is heavy

Illustration by Linas GarsysSpeaking of Straight Ed McKirdy, the Livewire Records head honcho makes his triumphant return to the stage this year as the singer/frontman for Skull Crusher, a brutal new band from the brutal land of New York City. Drummer Brian "Gordo" Jordan, also of the great Double Cross webzine, just fucking kills it on the kit as well. Their crushing debut Blinded By Illusion, a Livewire/Reflections Records joint release, will...

By The Grace Of God Interview: I Stand Alone zine #8, Summer 1997

Hi everyone. I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday season as well as a great new year. Today I bring you an interview with Louisville, KY's By The Grace of God. This was originally printed in I Stand Alone zine which was one of the best of the era in my opinion. Hope you all enjoy it...we have lots planned for the year including an interview with John Wylie on Morning Again and Pete Spielman reflecting on his time in Green Ra...
