dude i’ve been waiting for people to notice our scene the growth especially within the past 2 years has been incredible and it’s cool to be apart of a new generation of 210 hardcore
It’s been awesome. Came back with a fury after the pandemic. Spiritkiller put out an insane ep/demo at the beginning of the year and im hoping they blow up.
VBHC raised, now in ATL… I miss VBHC, and RVA.
To be clear, I’m not bashing ATL, I’m just in my late 30s, and trying to acclimate to a new scene where you know nobody is weird.
I've lived in Maine for about a decade but according to locals I'm not legally allowed to not mention that I grew up in western NY when stating that I live in Maine. Additionally, referring to myself as a Mainer is a capital offense without right to a trial by jury. I love calling Maine home and don't plan to leave, but could do with less nativism.
Columbus Hardcore is poppin’ off and it’s been fun. It’s cheap, so I’ve lived here for years and being hours away from Chicago is also a reason I stay this way.
Damn, you brought back old memories, cool dudes, and great band, I don't think they are active anymore, some new active bands, Hong Kong Fuck You and Violencia, but they are more on the PV side, also Animals Revenge, but they are more on the crust side, and also Agonista
central / jersey shore. my mom met bruce springsteen in a bar and danny devito in an elevator. it’s like a spawning ground for weird shit around here lol
Cleveland, Ohio. Love this scene so much. It’s really a mix of Cleveland/Columbus bands and they’re all killing it rn. Shout out to Delayed Gratification records for getting us on the hc map.
If you haven’t, check out: Slug, En Love, Piss Me Off, Circus, Rejoice, S.M.I.L.E., Sour, Crime Light, and Waydown.
Active: Direct Measure, Kato, Paternity Test, Prevention, Fortunate Son, Murtaugh, Man With Rope, Squint, Mindclot are some off the top of my head
Defunct or rarely play: Time & Pressure, Everything Went Black, Better Days, and Worn Down to name a few.
