Rice from 1986 or 87 san diego band on lookout for the album "Fuck you this is rice" it's all about rice and doin the ricepicker. F corn F bread RICE!
110% Agreed...'85 was even pushing it a bit. One of the best HxCx bands of all time had a member that lurks here now. I bet only a few of you are HxCx enough to even know who the fuck I'm talking about.
no, wait, it's Anthony from E.Town, right? Rick Ta Life? he and I actually used to chat about toy collecting quite often.
i guess the most known ones are the only ones i know about, but they kick ass imo. bad brains minor threat black flag dead kennedys ... are the misfits considered hardcore? They are the definition of KICK ASS!
I love when you old farts drop the "anything past 85" line. with that said... I could never pick one band. in the past? who cares? Present day, anything on No way or grave mistake records kills it. best record labels in 20-25 years. .
just trying to remember some good oldies, never sure what falls in to what category and don't care much but how about mdc snfu dayglow abortions neurosis corosion of conformity nip drivers time to pull out the records, making me feel old
I think alot of people care about the past. But there is some good stuff these days too, what about CONVERGE. Or are some people gonna say "sell out" becuase they are popular now. They are still much better than most of the new bands out there. But best hardcore band for me, at least I remember people calling this band hardcore in the early '80s, RUDIMENTARY PENI. Or is that going to be considered something different as every band has its own genre these days.
I would have to go with a Boston band for my favorite. I'd probably pick The Freeze or Jerrys Kids. Fuck SSD. Completely overrated.
