killtraitor - demo downloads

A few years ago our buddy at Pins & Needles Zine started a band called killtraitors with their main influences being Harvest and Torn Apart. They recorded two demos that have just been sitting around so they were kind enough to send them our way. Hopefully there will be some more news of an album in the future.  Here are the links to their 5 song demos: killtraitors - dead weight killtraitors - been called worse by b...

411 Say It 7" and commentary by Dan O'Mahoney

411 was a band  that was a slice of a little something different in the early 90's. During their brief existence, they spit out a equally brief 7" and an incredible 12". With the impending 411 discography release, I asked singer Dan O'Mahoney if he'd mind cluing us in on how the band formed and how their great debut 7" came to be. He agreed and I couldn't be happier with all the stuff he provided for the piece. Dan currently fronts Done Dying,...

S.O.B. - Studio Session '92

S.O.B. first took shape in 1983, and were known for being one of the premiere bands for bringing the speed of thrash to hardcore.  They gained extra notoriety in 1990 when they did a split 7" with Napalm Death.  The influence that the two bands had on one another can be easily heard on both band's albums during the early 90s. A while back, I bought a bunch of tapes from a friend, and in that lot was this S.O.B. - Studio Session...

Envy Never Forget cassette/ Larry Ransom notes and backstory

Envy were a great mid 90's straight edge band from Buffalo, NY. I had the pleasure of being friends with some of the guys, played with them(with Halfmast and No Reason) as well as booking them a few times. I always loved their pre-LP demo and recalled that it was initially going to be a second 7" on a west coast label. I couldn't remember the specifics, so I reached out to Larry Ransom, who sang for Envy, and he took the time to write a little...

Against All Hope 1993 Self Titled Cassette

 While waiting in line at a local thrash/ death metal show in the winter on 1990, I bought a 7” by local Buffalo, NY hardcore band Against All Hope. I thought it was pretty cool and listened to it quite a bit over the coming months. The following summer of '91, I finally was able to catch them live and they were WAY better than that 7”. The line up I saw at that show had Jay Galvin on bass and Scott Vogel on drums, both of whom were also in Slugfest....

I follow Dischord on Tumblr and they post some great stuff from their archives featuring a lot of great bands.  These flyers are just the tip of the iceberg. See more right here. ...

Earthmover - Death Carved In Every Word

I was just going to update the original post but I figured why not just start over? This would be Earthmover's final offering to us before they decided to call it quits following a European tour. I had a buddy who grew up in Detroit and went to college at the University of Miami. who was friends with them. We went to pick them up at the airport after they came back from Belgium...that was the closest I ever got to seeing them. Bummer...all the...

Day Of Suffering Interview: Abstraction Zine #3

Here's a 2 page interview with Day Of Suffering from Abstraction Zine #3. I couldn't find the year that this was released but it seems to be after the release of their CD "The Eternal Jihad". Nice read into what the band was about. They start to discuss their "new" record but unfortunately the release never happened. Pretty sure I got this scan from Rob Mafia (thanks for your help again Rob). Enjoy....

Fadeaway- Blindsight Demo 1993

Caught somewhere between early 90's "Buffalo stye" hardcore and Turning Point, Fadeaway's Blindsight is one of the absolute best demos to ever come out of the Buffalo, NY hardcore scene. The song writing and pedigree (3 members went on to Despair and another to Snapcase) on Blindsight is top notch, combining songs from 3 different recording sessions; all of which were recorded at Watchmen studios. Though two of the songs (Perfect Blood and Gone)...
