Episode 11: Unable To Escape the Uncusations.

Episode 14, Part 2: In Which Adam and Kate Call the Hardcore Hotline

We brought on the genius behind Hardcore Hotline to talk with us. Madelinne was kind enough to make time for us, and we’re very glad she did. She thinks you should go to shows and discover new bands. We agree. Go find your new favorite band.

Episode 14, Part 1: In Which We Discuss and Are Somewhat Disappointed by This Year’s Furnace Fest

Recorded second, released first. We show off our mail, Kate reports back that Rot in Hell is dope, and then we spend the rest of the episode on Furnace Fest, its few high points, and its many low points. Kate gets big mad. Adam, somewhat less so.

Episode 13: West By God Virginia

Our first guest, JX from Common Ground, joins us to talk about the great state of West by God Virginia, its hardcore scene, and its history. We had other plans for this episode, but they got sidelined, and it was absolutely worth it to just let JX go off. Go listen to his band.

Episode 12: 2009 Was Kinda Dope NGL

Exactly what it says on the tin: 2009 releases. Turns out it was a pretty great year for hardcore and adjacent music. Yes, we forgot to talk about the first Harms Way full-length and had to patch it in afterward. No, the irony is not lost on us. Does that make us level 10 pose dawgs? It certainly does not help.

Episode 11: Unable To Escape the Uncusations.

Back to form. Kate shows off some cool mail, and we finally get around to talking about Hellfest, fully revealing that we are not entirely up on the new hotness and are unable to beat the unc allegations.
