Ressurection was around for a couple of years in the early 1990's, that featured the vocals of Robert Fish (of 108 fame). Simply put, if you listen to and enjoy 108, you will enjoy Ressurection.

Umbrage is a straight edge band from Japan that plays 90's style hardcore in the vein of Chokehold, Birthright, and Culture. Before hearing about bands like Umbrage and xShiverx, I had no clue that there was a solid straight edge scene in Japan. I'm stoked.

Two great bands came together in 1993 to put out this 7" that came out on Bloodlink Records. Not much to say about this one, besides the fact that these are awesome songs. Classic.

4) God Is In His Heaven, All Is Right With The World
This is a really good EP from a band that's generally underrated. The fourth song on this is one of my favorite songs from them and I think it's fucking epic. Plus, what other band has a song title in morse code?

Tracklist:
1) All Out War
2) Ecocide
3) Stand By
4) No Allegiance
The first release from this vegan straight edge band, that came out in '92. 4 quick, but awesome, songs that are among my favorites. Who knew that this band would be one of the biggest in hardcore? Check out the video (which came from Earth Crisis' dvd) below, as well. Tell me that shit is not funny, I dare you.

8) Age Of Quarrel
The second record from the Cro-Mags, that came out in '89. Before 'Best Wishes' was recorded, John Joseph left the band (but later came back), leaving Harley to take over bass and vocal duties for this cd. Regardless of whether or not this is their 'first metal album' or 'not as good as Age Of Quarrel', it's still really awesome for what it is. Definitely a different vibe than what I'm sure you're used to hearing, but it still rules. The intro on "The Only One" is still one of my favorites, hands down. Mosh.

- Geoff
Tracklist:
1) Wolves At My Door
This is the bonus track from the vinyl edition of You Fail Me. It's a good song, but I can also see why they didn't put it on regular version. You should also get stoked on their new album, cause I'm sure it will be one of the best of the year.

xClearx's only full-length, I believe. This record came out in 1999, but due to band difficulties, they broke up and played their last show about a year after this LP came out. Really dark and metallic hardcore.

Tracklist:

These are two B-sides from Life Long Tragedy's last album. I thought Runaways was a vast improvement over their older material and wish they had stayed around longer. These songs keep with the feel of that album.

Tracklist:

6) Apologies
7) Twenty-Four
In 1998, Culture re-recorded 5 songs from the Born Of You LP, which originally came out in 1995. This record was a spoof of Judge's 'Chung King Can Suck It' and was an attack on Mike Warden, the owner of Conquer The World Records, whom was suspected of secretly repressing and selling the record. Pit beef.
This material never officially got released, but here it is. The Judge cover is fucking awesome*.

9) Our Fight
The now-legendary release from this notorious Cleveland straight edge band. One Life Crew signed to Victory Records in the 90's, but was dropped from the roster soon after supposedly because of a fight that broke out during their set at the '96 Cleveland Hardcore Festival.
'Murdario Stomp' still stands as being one of the hardest intros, in my book.

This demo is damn good, probably my favorite release from them. I remember being blown away the first time I saw them, back when they were touring on this alone. Plus the singer does great live for someone with asthma. "I fear those who believe, they have god on their side"=fucking hard.

Sick.

I got this record (as well as a Never Enough longsleeve) through a trade from a good friend. I gave up "Gomorrah's Season Ends" by Earth Crisis for this, and I'd say it was well worth the trade. Such a good band. "Behind This Wall" is perfect.

Yet another record that I found and bought at CD Warehouse. Bloodlet was a metallic hardcore band on Victory Records, before that label went to complete shit. Apparently, Victory used the words "devil-core" and "evil-core" when promoting this band to emphasize their dark sound. Heavy.

The first official release from one of my favorite Hardcore bands of all time. If you didn't get to see this band live then I feel bad for you. The first two songs were later put on the re-release of My Love My Way. This is the only appearance of track 3 on an official release, which might be a good thing since I don't think it matches the quality of their other songs.

So this isn't Hardcore, but it's really good Hip-Hop. He has a good flow and lyrics that aren't retarded, he even mentions Isis on another cd. It's Hip-Hop by someone who grew up on Punk and can still appreciate it. It has guest spots from Slug of Atmosphere and Greg of the Bouncing Souls.
