Capsule - No Ghost

From: U.S.
Year: 2011
Genre: Hardcore, Screamo, Math Rock

Sorry I haven't been pulling my weight around here as of late, but I've found the motivation again I guess and I should be able to post every other day or so on here. Anyway, here's the newest from Capsule-->>

Uphill Battle - Wreck of Nerves

From: USA
Year: 2004
Genre: Grindcore, Hardcore

Everywhere you look online Uphill Battle is described as a metalcore group. I disagree with this whole-heartedly and think it does them a severe injustice. In my opinion they were a grindcore band with heavy hardcore influences and slight flourishes of death metal. Both guitarists and the bass player handled vocal duties so you had three distinct voices, the trade off very reminiscent of other grindcore bands. The drummer of the band was Danny Walker, who currently plays for Intronaut and Murder Construct and previously played with Exhumed and Phobia, to name a few, so you know damn well where the drumming is coming from, and it sure as hell ain’t metalcore. The sense of dynamics in the album is amazing, tension builds and releases constantly, shifting between blasts of blinding speed and slower hardcore breakdowns with flashes of melody interspersed throughout. If you dig Converge, Burnt by the Sun or anything similar definitely check this out.

Jasta 14 - 7"

From: USA
Year: 1995
Genre: Post-Hardcore

Jasta 14 were a Connecticut hardcore band co-founded by Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed that existed from 1991 to 1996. The early recordings of the band, although quite good, were fairly typical of early 90's hardcore and were heavily influenced by contemporaries like NYC's Burn and Absolution. By the time this recording was released they had gone through a number of vocalists and were more influenced by a lot of the post-hardcore and screamo that existed at the time i.e. Rorschach, Rye Coalition, Swing Kids etc. They went through other numerous personnel changes during their brief existence but this recording features founding member and bass player Greg Burns of Red Sparowes and Mick Barr of Krallice on guitar. After further personnel changes and a US tour in support of this 7”, playing with bands such as Botch and Snapcase, the group finally called it quits.

Integrity - Those Who Fear Tomorrow

From: USA
Year: 1992
Genre: Metallic Hardcore

Once in a long while an album comes along and every nuance of that album seems to be perfect. Every vocal line, every bass line, every drum fill, every riff is so incredibly memorable that you cant ever get it out of your head. For me, this is one of those albums. Before Integrity released it they took the scene by storm with their 1989 demo, Harder They Fall. While most hardcore bands were preaching about brotherhood or some other elitist bullshit, Integrity wrote, and continues to write, songs influenced by the occult, the process church and the apocalypse, among other things. Although they took some detours along the way, their sound is pretty much the same now as it was on this album, metallic hardcore with ripping guitar solos, gargled barbed wire screaming, slow to mid-pace heavy parts punctuated with double bass and fast hardcore breaks. Check out their newer stuff if you get a chance. Oh yeah, LEAVE COMMENTS IF YOU DOWNLOAD!!!

1.6 Band - Broke Up

From: USA
Year: 1996
Genre: Hardcore Punk

With some of the most bizarre riffs and time signatures/changes ever to come out of the hardcore punk scene, 1.6 Band is unlike anyone else before or since. With stop on a dime time changes and extremely tight musicianship, their sound remains pretty hard to describe. I wanna say Dag Nasty having sex with VoiVod, but even that does them no justice. Suffice it to say that this compilation of all their recorded material between 1991 and 1993 is awesome, unique and you need to hear it. They recently reunited, played a bunch of shows with Rorschach and released a 7”, which you can download for free at metastasisrecords.com. DOWNLOAD LINK HAS BEEN FIXED, SORRY BOUT THAT

Born Against - Nine Patriotic Hymns for Children

From: USA
Year: 1991/1993
Genre: Hardcore Punk

Born Against were a hardcore punk band from New York City that existed between 1989 and 1993. They combined the slower discordant riffs of AmRep bands like Unsane with the speed and aggression of punk. Abrasive, intelligent and lyrically scathing, they were, and remain to be, a huge influence on bands as disparate as Refused and Thou and are one of my favorite punk bands ever. They played a ton of shows with Rorschach and were similar to them in certain ways and completely different in others. So if you liked the Rorschach post, you definitely need to check this out. I have also included the Battle Hymns for the Race War 10’ that was re-released as a compilation with this album.

Rorschach - Protestant

From: USA
Year: 1993
Genre: Hardcore Punk/Metal

What’s up everyone, this is my first post on Celebutards and I’m starting things off with one of my favorite albums of all time. This album had a huge effect on the hardcore scene in the early 90’s, influencing countless bands and further bridging the gap between hardcore punk and metal. Granted there were many crossover albums in existence before this album came out but no one did it like they did. There’s something for everyone here- dissonant guitar (think Voivod or Die Kreuzen), slow sludgy parts, blast beats, odd time changes/signatures, relentless screaming, punk attitude/aggression and its all wrapped up in a sloppy metal bow. Members went on to spawn the incredible Deadguy and Kiss it Goodbye, among others.

I Want You Dead - We Are the Legions of Scums

 Bandcamp   From: Greece Year: 2010 Genre: Hardcore

"Holy shit fuck damn!!!" Those were my initial thoughts when first hearing this band. This is hardcore. Pissed off, dark, off the rails and just plain evil. I don't know what's going on in Greece as of late but whatever it is it has this band really ticked off. Get this now. Its just absolute anger.

Drugs of Faith - Corroded

From: U.S.
Year: 2011
Genre: Grindcore

So glad this is out, I love everything this man is a part of...

Burn Everything - Last Run Through the Ruins

Burn Everything's Bandcamp

From: Rochester, New York Year: 2011 Genre: Hardcore, Noisecore, Grindcore 

Since my post of Burn Everything's other album ended up being very popular I'm going to post the newest album by them. More sick, grindey, nutty and noisey 90's crazy core worship. I equate this band's music to an animal or human who is so enraged and angered that it doesn't give two shits about who it hurts or what it destroys. This stuff is just that volatile and I thank them for that. It's very refreshing sounding. 

Victims - A Dissident

From: Sweden
Year: 2011
Genre: Crust, D-beat, Hardcore

This just tears up a new asshole. I'm such a fan of the ripping d-beat and crust. Awesome band.

The Secret - Solve Et Coagula

From:  Italy

Year:  2010

Genre:  Crust Punk, Hardcore

Holy shit this is some pissed off stuff. The only way I could describe this is if you were to light your car on fire and go barreling down the freeway hitting other traffic as you go. Its got punk, hardcore, and crust elements. With a super sick guitar tone. Its just fast and sounds as though its derailing the whole time.  Very pissed. Get this shit.

Outbreak - The other two albums

 

From:  United States

Years Released:  2004, 2006

You Make Us Sick (2004)

Failure (2006)

Weekend Nachos - Worthless

From: U.S.
Year: 2011
Genre: Power-Violence, Hardcore, Sludge

I love how low and heavy these guys can go, it's almost like they're trying to play in a vat of molasses. Metaphors aside, this album kicks much ass-->>
