Used to play with one of the guys who was in Chiodos Bros., before they were Chiodos. I don't think I had a driver's license yet.
JR Ewing was/is legit. I have Ride Paranoia and Mælstrom 12"s. Would like Moving Units Dangerous Dreams (still a fun one to listen to), but that's not even in the same class.
So many things come to mind that aren't on YouTube. You wouldn't believe me if I tried.
This thread brought me back to being 20 and coming out of the closet super hard. Thanks, y'all. Can't remember the last time i thought about The Plot To Blow Up The Eiffel Tower or Cutting Pink With Knives. The Locust and Blood Brothers come up more often.
Also, props to Suis La Lune and La Quiete posts.

I remember.
I also just remember this music - and its subsequent effects on punk and hardcore fashion/aesthetic/sound - being very present in a formative part of my younger life. I want to listen to Burn, Piano Island, Burn now. Or just some Three One G bullshit. Break out my tight jeans and pink locust shirt. Thank you, thread.

I loved Loma Prieta and Suis La Lune and La Quiete, but that shit felt a little too late and a little to "respectable" to be white belt.
Still pumped to think about them.

I think I saw He Who Corrupts' first show. My band played with them on tour in Chicago (in 2002, maybe?), and I was told by a few people that it was members of a bunch of other local favourite bands, but their first show with that band. Anyway, I've never worn a white belt, but there's a fuck of a lot of bands I know and love in this thread. I'll post some others later.
Former Bands: Lazy Gaga, Kadis-kot, Pyramids, In First Person, the Holy Fucking Spirit, Take Down Your Art, A Petal Fallen
