Classic Review: Pipedown- Enemies Of Progress

In 2001 melodic political hard core powerhouse Pipedown droppwd their dwbut ablum on A-F Records, Enemies Of Progress. This ripper hits just as hard today. They blasted out of the Pittsburgh scene and sound like a more melodically inclined Behind Enemy Lines. This whole record is solid from front to back like all of these post hard core template albums that were coming out in this era of hard core and punk that really got us thimking. And damn the guitars were amazing. It’s like this band started at the top of their game. The vocals that go from almost … Continue reading Classic Review: Pipedown- Enemies Of Progress

Classic Review: Thought Riot- Shattered Mirror Syndrome

In 2002 my unquestionably favorite album of youth crew hard core dropped. Thought Riot was a fuckin bomb blast out of Modesto, CA. The beat way I can describe their sound is a perfect blend of the best elements of AFI, Straght Edge Hard Core and Anti-Flag. The album Shattered Mirror Syndrome was another amazing gem from A-F Records. My 2 top tracks are Save The Humans (a call out of the manifest destiny our species has propagated over every aspect of the planet) and Sign Of The Times (a questioning of those who get into sXe hXc because it’s … Continue reading Classic Review: Thought Riot- Shattered Mirror Syndrome

Classic Review: Whatever It Takes- A Fistful of Revolution/ Stars and Skulls

This isn’t a new but a fucking classic! In 2003 Whatever It Takes released their full length album on A-F Records which also included their Stars and Skulls ep. They were an amazing blend of east coast emo and hard core. The vocalist is Anti-Flag’s own Chris#2. I remember first hearing a couple of their songs on a comp and following the lead up to the release. I was fucking stoked on it! Right from the first track City Streets, Summer Heat i was hooked in (still one of my favorite tracks off of this). My other favorite is Post … Continue reading Classic Review: Whatever It Takes- A Fistful of Revolution/ Stars and Skulls

Follow em and band camp and blast it loud!https://ghouli.bandcamp.com/releases– C Fish Continue reading Ghouli Nothing review

Welcome to the American Fall

The new Anti-Flag album dropped today. It’s the most stoked I’ve been on a new punk album in years. I saw them live a couple weeks back. The new one is a call to action against the neo-liberal order of the previous 8 years and this alt-right status quo the rose of Trump has given us. Stand out track on this is When The Wall Falls. Anti-Flag wrote a kick ass ska track. This is the album we need now. From us old dogs who may feel a bit jaded to the scared kid that may be gay, trans or … Continue reading Welcome to the American Fall
