Dead End Path - DWBU - 1st Press Clear Green /550


Dead End Path - Death Walks Beside Us

Where do I start?
I'll start with where I got this; I grabbed this off ebay.. like most of my shit.
Pretty cheap, but also at what it goes for at about $15? If i remember correctly.
I didnt really know people knew about them to be honest. I heard this when it first came out and felt like no one really knew about this band..
That quickly changed.

Rage Against The Machine - People of The Sun


Rage Against The Machine - People of The Sun EP

This is literally the only 10" I own and my turntable doesn't even spin at the speed needed for this.
I have zero idea about the pressing info for this, i got this when i went to my local hot topic to pick up the NFG sticks and stones hot topic exclusive press. Nothing special, at least that i know of. great band though!

Minor Threat Late 00's Out of Step 12"


Not much to say besides the fact this band and album holds more to the straight edge and hardcore community than anything else. This isn't anything special.. just a late 00's press you can find anywhere. Great album, one of the greats.

Trash Talk - Eyes & Nines - 1st Press /1400


I cant remember where i got this.. was it hot topic? or off their big cartel? I honestly cannot remember.. Im pretty sure it was off their website, strictly because i've never bought a record from hot topic except the NFG i posted recently. I dont know, who cares. Im not a big Trash Talk fan, just got it to have something from them and this is more of my favorite from them. The pressing info was hard for me to get, not that i looked hard really, but i saw some guy selling one and he had the info on it.

NFG - S&S HT Press /1500


New Found Glory - Sticks and Stones

This is the what i believe to be 2nd press Hot Topic "exclusive". Great album and also and early one from back in the day. Every song on this is amazing and this is no doubt the best album ever released by NFG. I still want ISHC, and Captain Straight Edge back. COME ON! It can happen!

Terror - One With The Underdogs - 1st Press /150


Terror - One With The Underdogs

Just got finished with a long day and long night so I thought I would top it off with a post or two.

I won this off ebay for cheap and I assume most but KOTF is cheap and easy to get for low prices regardless of how limited some of them are, as this will prove that. Besides Keepers of The Faith, this is one of my more memorable albums I keep close to my heart. I got into hardcore around 8th grade first hearing Stick To Your Guns and Terror so it's almost like a "never forget where it started" type saying for this album. I guess a lot of people dont really like Terror. Well fuck you terror rules.

Foundation - When The Smoke Clears W/R/B Tri-Color /1000


Foundation - When The Smoke Clears

I'm really trying my best to post as many of the records I already have on here and catch up so i can be to the point where I post records the day I get them but I feel like i buy more records than I post so I'm doing my best to finish with what I have on my computer (pictures)

Foundation's When The Smoke Clears is actually a great LP i was worried they would do something so much more awful than Hang Your Head, which is a great 7"/12" (Depending on which variant you have). So I was extremely happy to listen through this multiple times and be happy with what it came out to be. Great LP 4/5 stars easy.

Trapped Under Ice - Secrets of The World - Bronze w/ Black Splatter 3rd Press


Trapped Under Ice - Secrets of The World

A lot of people dont like this band, or this album.
You're probably expecting me to say "Well I love this album" like i've done in most of my post. To be honest this album is the worst thing ever put out by TUI. It's terrible. This was the LP released after Stay Cold, probably one of my most favorite 7"s and it's hard to believe a band can go from so good to so bad. I think there's a total of 2 songs I like on this entire LP (See god, and believe). You could probably image what it was like for me to listen to this for the very first time ever. Getting through the first two songs and being amazed and then completely let down the rest of the way through. I love this band but not this album. Probably will only get the rest of the variants for incredibly low prices if it's possible.

Cruel Hand - Lock & Key Sea Foam Green 1st Press


Cruel Hand - Lock & Key

The LP before Lock & Key (Prying Eyes) was a gift from the hardcore gods something so great is so hard to replicate but also make new and this is evidence of that. Lock & Key is a good album, but not great. It's a lot more mature and still has the foundation of hardcore but doesn't seem to give that extra push to make it what it could have been. I love this album still and have it on white vinyl on the way. a good 3.5/5 stars for this and a good pick up for anyone.

ISHC - Takin' It Ova! 1st Press White w/ Splatter


Internation Superheros of Hardcore!
TAKIN' IT OVA
Another fun album in hardcore, less in your face like Cockpunch's Attack Album, but definitely its a fun album to listen to that just brings up ongoing problems in hardcore like sellouts and how everything in hardcore seems to be a fashion show and screamo needing to end (agreed). Its a great album. Maybe one day New Found Glory will come back and be ISHC, I miss Captain Straight Edge

Cockpunch! - Attack - 1st Press /400


Yay! My first June post of 2013! I wanted to do a fun one one this very nice day in Chicago!
Cockpunch's "Attack" The color of the vinyl for this record reminds me very much of a pizza, sounds like a pop-punk kids best friend right? Too bad the music on the record wouldn't be the best thing for one of those kids ears. Lead singer Vincent Bennett (Also known for The Acacia Strain) was apart of this side project and actually made one of the more relatable hardcore records (to me). The entire album is about pretty much any on going problem in hardcore or just in the world, from the sluts to edge-breakers; to drinking and driving and keyboard warriors (internet trolls). I love this fucking album and i know it's out there on pink vinyl and i want it more than anything.

Trapped Under Ice - Big Kiss Goodnight - Red


God damn I love this band!
Their demos, EPs, LPs.. it's all those perfect, this was a great addition to their discography as a band and easily deserves recognition because of this, i cant believe this band is breaking up, what a shame.

Kids Like Us - Outta Control - Black


A very straight forward album, raw, uncut and pure hardcore from KLU
Hard and pure to the very core of hardcore this release from Kids Like Us is more than perfect.
13 songs, 20 minutes, and plenty of "fucks" and grunts. Easily a fantastic album.
A+

True Colors - Rush of Hope - Red


Easily the greatest thing about this album, let alone the artist, is how vintage everything sounds.
The LP takes a road that sounds like the late 80's east coast youth crew type direction.
Plenty of vintage chords used throughout the album and vintage sounding vocals; this album is hard-hitting and worth every penny. Bought this off some guy on Instagram for cheap considering it's still available on the webstore, at least it was the last time I checked
TRUE COLORS!
RUSH OF HOPE!
