And thanks again for responding an hour and a half after I posted even though I was quoting you on something over a year old. I don't completely disagree w/ saying hardcore 'died' in the 80's, because it did take a massive nosedive, but good stuff still exists if you can find it I’m sorry that I may have come off a little confrontational haha and I realize that you may just be making an example of me, but thanks if what you wrote was meant in the way it was written (mood/tone doesn’t translate well into text unfortunately).

The older sounding stuff still exists, although harder to find. Check out Free Spirit, Truth, Enough, Step Aside, Disengage, Stick Together. Don't say it's dead just cause you feel it meant something to you then but can't mean anything today Saying that hardcore died in 86 is stupid man. 86-90 (Wide Awake, Insted, Gorilla Biscuits, Straight Ahead are just a few) had freakin sick bands, 90′s had a different sound but still tons of good bands, and there still are awesome bands today, though they aren’t as much in the ‘hardcore’ spotlight that has been taken over by a new kind of sound.

Chuggah-chuggah Metalcore: I'm having a hard time imagining a worse kind of music. I'd rather listen to Eurotrance. I tried hard, but I could not spot the least bit of “Hardcore” there.

For the record, in NYC UD weren't considered a "youth crew" band and though Richie did play with YOT their relationships with those bands were tenuous at best. I mean the bassist was previously in Murphy's Law, you know "Why don't you drinking fucking beer?/ What's a matter are you Queer?", and "Not Like You" was a pretty direct slam against their "elitist crew." If anything there were like a surrogate Bad Brains, the band everyone liked; skins, sXe'ers, tough guys, skaters, etc. And though you can definitely hear the future of metal-referent New York "hawdkaw" in this 7"s grooves it's way more punk than some of the shit that came after them and those dudes were definitely very aware of the real shit and had a lot of love for it. Random-geek correction, Chuck Treece didn't play on the LP, Richie did, but did tour with them around the time of it's release. Never thought I’d find this here of all places but glad I did.
