Sure -- that and your extreme deficit in taste.

Cease Upon the Capitol also never gets enough rep. Forgotten gem.

Just quoting this because I agree + I ordered from meatcube not long ago. Got the Cohol/Heaven in her Arms split, Tetola93 LP and the Cease Upon the Capital discography 2xtape. The tape, aside from the songs being great, sounds incredible, one of the best-dubbed cassette releases I've heard. The Tetola93 record sounds awful, on the other hand... like it was recorded on a boombox in a room adjacent to their rehearsal space. A shame, because they seem like an interesting band. Ryan Lewis, who runs meatcube (and played in CUTC and Singaia) is an awesome dude to deal with, btw.

Hey breaux you sold me on The Minutemen :poke:

Also good to know: I don't see taste as an exclusive thing. I like everything. So try to focus on the music we both like. Judge my taste on the fact that I like bands that you like, not based on the fact that I like bands you don't like.

Ryan is one of my best friends and the reason I'm so into Japanese music! Dude is a huge inspiration for me.

As for the Tetola93 record, I can't help but agree but him and the band themselves love it. They recorded it themselves (I think the bass player did the mixing and mastering and stuff) and like the sound they got out of it. The band is definitely good enough that the poor recording quality doesn't effect just how punishing that record is though.

Also, I'm just gonna go ahead and fuck this thread up because Ten Grand isn't exactly hardcore, but they are the best band of all time. Still blown away no one has tried to do a band in this style since them.

oh, man. Ten Grand were an awesome band.

granted, i am biased - my old band toured with them a bunch & the surviving members are friends to this day.

RIP Matt D.

Just to (perhaps unwantedly) butt in - this is pretty much the opposite of my view. If I meet someone who likes some of the same bands I do, but then also likes bands that are horrible and false, their bad taste will obliterate any good choices they've made. Ever.

Ok, better rep some Norwegian Hardcore... some newer stuff, I assume you've ALL heard Kafka Prosess, Life... But How to Live It? and So Much Hate...

Hey, that's cool! I've actually ordered from him a couple of times, and will definitely do so again!

Yeah, Tetola93's album is really good, and I don't hate the recording so much that I can't enjoy it... usually I like lo-fi sound, but I hope they up the quality just a lil' bit on their next release.

Will be no next release. They recorded that self-titled release and broke up due to family commitments and stuff like that. One of the guitar players now plays in Atari.

Well, that's a shame, but I guess it's the way she goes. I really like this ATARI stuff though, thanks for the tip!

They're a great band! I have that 7" in stock in my distro (wink wink, nudge nudge)

Also, just sent them interview questions, so hopefully I'll have a fully translated interview by the end of next month!

This is butt. Focus on the positive. If we both share a love of a band, that's the important thing. AND... often if someone likes a lot of bands you like, but they also like a lot of bands you don't like, you get talking to them, and suddenly you see those bands in a new light. For example, D.o.S. loves Minutemen, and I kind of thought they sucked, but he convinced me that this was not the case.
