BATTERY - UNTIL THE END (D.C. USA)

BATTERY - UNTIL THE END (D.C. USA) 1996

By 1996 they released "Until the End", their second full length album, which featured another 7Seconds cover, "Young Till I Die". By this stage they had a new drummer,Jason hamacher, who was also a member of the D.C. spazzcore band Frodus. This album saw the refinement of the bands old school revival sound, in that it saw them move towards a more stripped down and melodic style. Ben Chused then left the band and began playing drums in the Boston hardcore band, TEN YARD FIGHT. He was replaced with Graham Land who had played guitar in Worlds Collide and founded BETTER THAN A THOUSAND with Ken Olden and RAY CAPPO , the singer of YOUTH OF TODAY. The band then began their first major tour in the United States, headlining with TEN YARD FIGTH , as well as their second major tour of Europe with DAMNATION AD.

WARZONE - DONT FORGET THE STRUGGLE DONT FORGET THE
STREETS (New York USA)

Though the band featured several members of non-caucasian backgrounds through its history, and Raybeez sang lyrics urging racial unity and spoke out strongly against anything that divided the youth of America against itself, their shows were often marred by violence. For this reason, Raybeez rarely performed from the stage. He sang out in the crowd. Often huddling with a multitude to shout the lyrics, he used it as an opportunity to stop fights before security could respond. This tactic often cooled tempers more quickly than stopping the show might have and prevented fans from being escorted out of the show. His position in the crowds rather than elevated on a stage also endeared him to fans in a way few other performers in the genre have ever achieved. The music on this album was what New York hardcore (and hardcore in general) became known for: short, fast songs with shouted socio-political lyrics, heavy but basic guitar riffs, gang chants, and attitude. The title track became a slogan for hardcore youth, and one of the most covered tracks by other New York hardcore bands. Other songs such as "Crazy But Not Insane" and "As One" had a similar impact.

ANTI-MATTER COMPILATION CD 1996 (U.S.A.)

ANTI-MATTER COMPILATION CD 1996 (U.S.A.)

Tully one the greatest compilations ever to put out on a cd, For 12 years its still one of my top playlist. ANTI MATTER was a fanzine published by Norman Brannon (former guitarist for Resurrection, 108, Shelter, Texas Is The Reason, and New End Original) from his New York City apartment. The zine featured interviews with many hardcore, punk, and indie bands that read more like conversations with friends rather than your run-of-the-mill interviews. One of the best zines ever printed. Farside's Moral Straightjacket was just released on Monroe Doctrine but until MD, the only place to find this amazing song was on this comp. Sense Field's Shady Day is a great song from a great band, Quicksand is incredible, the Civ song is a classic, plus Chamberlin's best song as well as songs by Lifetime and Snapcase. If there is one comp that is a must have for any punk collection, this is it.

URBAN BANDITS - INDEPENDENCE DAY (Manila, Philippines)

Another great T.R.C. release by one of most respected band from those times. Urban Bandit's sound draws its influence from U.K. bands rather than U.S. ones. They had a definite impact on Manila's new breed of street-punk and Oi combos. The frontman Arnold Morales went to form the band Music Front at the end of the eighties, and eventually made a break in the music business during the 90's with the ska outfit Put3ska. The ska version of the song "Manila Girl" had been a hit and its video clip got some international exposure on MTV Asia. - BRAVE NEW WORLD BLOGSPOT

Yes, i can still remember, Reypeace and I going to every

because during that time cassettes we're like 50php each and we
wanted to sell hard times for only 30bux, nobody liked the idea
because other record labels would complain that we're not following
the standard pricing system, as being hardheaded stubborn punx we
are, we disagreed with the idea and continued selling the tape
for 30bucks, we would leave a note inside that if you ever bought this
cassette exceeding 30bucks, please return it coz you've been
ripped off., Musically BFK, made a breakthrough in song

ACME - TO REDUCE THE CHOIR TO ONE SOLOIST
(Bremen, GERMANY)

Acme (from Bremen, Germany) were among the most influential Hardcore bands of the 1990’s. Edison released their album “to reduce the choir to one soloist” in 1996, but the recordings date back to 1993/1994, these nine tracks comprise the entirety of Acme’s recorded career (one 7”, three compilation tracks, one demo). Presumably the band take their musical cues from early 90’s Hardcore bands such as Born Against and ‘Protestant’-era Rorschach, but this is occluded so thoroughly by a dense (funeral) fog of extreme metal, sludge and grind that their original Hardcore influences are difficult to pinpoint.
