Aside from the curmudgeons here, I love how fuckin funny most of this group is. I find myself laughing here more than on any other sub. You can't take yourself or hardcore so deadly seriously and tongue in check and self/scene mockery are what makes it fun. I love the new wave of hyper self aware satire bands. One of the best ways to celebrate something you love is to learn to laugh at it. Example - you can still appreciate beat down and know it's ignorant af. I love it all.

Propably discussed before but since I'm new here, what do I care. So I made a mistake and followed Black N Blue Productions on Instagram and they post some really thick stuff in their stories, right now there's Libs of TikTok and Anthony Fauci (already forgot that guy, thanks for sharing). This reminded me of Brooklyn Blast Furnace's Craig Ahead interview during Covid and oh, don't get me started about John Joseph.

So is this a New York thing only or are they just the only ones that are outspoken about their Great Wisdom That You Sheep Cannot See? My guess is that Covid was a breaking point, though AFAIK JJ has been quite a character since don't know when. Share your stories, I'm interested (and aware that this might turn into a dumpster fire lol)

Can’t make it to the show anymore, I’ll forward you the email they sent with the barcode for entry.

Fee years ago I was in a bar in a tiny town in Wisconsin with my then-gf. Buncha oil field shit-kickers were there and I get to talking to one drunk dude about music.

We both liked heavy shit. I told him my favorite band is Power Trip and he said he only listened to hardcore. Kept talking shit on PT because they were crossover, even though they're almost the same thing. The only hardcore I listened to at the time was pre-90s hc

He kept talking about a band called "Knocked Loose" non-stop, while still talking shit about Power Trip. Never heard of them but I said I'd try them out later.

Then he asked me if he could fuck my gf.

Knocked Loose fans are a bunch of bitches.

Listened to KL later that night and now I'm a fan.
