Backlash - new album out soon

New Jersey's 90s hardcore stalwarts, Backlash, will have a new digital album out on Eulogy Recordings soon.  Titled "Where's The Pride", the release is slated to see the light of day on 11/5/13.

The band also filmed a video for the title track, which can be seen below.

Longest War (ex-Chokehold/Despair/Union)

Over the last few months, a new band featuring ex-members of Chokehold, Despair, Union and Achilles formed and recorded a 7" worth of material under the name Longest War.  They have now posted a song that can be heard on their Bandcamp page.

More news about the 7" to be released on Press Gang Records should come forth soon.

Countervail - s/t [1997]

Countervail made a very regular habit of playing the Northwest in the late 90s/early 2000s, and I was heavily into them from the first time they made it up this way.
This is their first CDep, which was self titled, and released on Words Of War Records in 1997.

Sworn Vengeance recently announced that their newest recording will be released on vinyl via Escapist Records, and CD via Goodlife Recordings with both of them containing a few extra tracks.

Here are the details:

"We will be going back into Castle Ultimate in Oakland around the beginning of October to work with the amazing Zack Ohren to record 4 tracks, 2 of which will be brand new songs for the full length. We will also record one of our older songs, "Abbadon." Combine that with the 7 songs we released earlier this month and you will have a 10 track full length set to release around December."

Of course, you can still go to their Bandcamp page to check out the recording in its current EP form.

Knuckledust - In Yer Boat! 7"

Knuckledust has been one of the biggest hardcore in the UK for quite some time now. Based in London, the band started out in 1993 as Mental Torment, and after a few line-up changes and a name change to Uphold, a final line-up and name change took place in 1996, and Knuckledust was born, and has been going strong ever since. This live 7" was recorded at the first ever EvilFest in 1998, in London's Astoria club, and features the first ever song written by Knuckledust, 'Persevere' as well as a Bulldoze cover, 'The Truth'. Besides Knuckledust, singer Pierre 'Pelbu' helps run Rucktion Records, and members also play(ed) in bands such as Bun Dem Out, Ninebar and Maldito.

The 7" was released on Household Name Records, which would also release a compilation CD with recordings of bands playing at EvilFest '98, but the Knuckledust songs are not the same ones as on this 7".
