Modern Life Is War - Witness

Modern Life Is War - Witness

Modern Life Is War's Myspace

MLIW's "masterpiece" and one of the best hardcore albums ever written.

It still kills me to think that they broke up.

I know that this album is all over the web, but if you haven't heard it yet, now is the time.

Seriously.

Yuppicide - Yuppicide 7"

Yuppicide - Yuppicide 7"

Yuppicide's Myspace

The first Yuppicide release in all it's glory. I managed to snag the lyrics and liner notes from discogs.com, so this is pretty much just a step away from owning the actual record.

Dear Landlord - Heartbroken Handshakes 7"

Here's a short little 7" from Dear Landlord featuring one new song and a demo of Lake Ontario. It took me a little while to get into these guys but now I can't stop listening to them.

Also check out their split with Off With Their Heads, which is here.

Off With Their Heads - Live at The Atlantic 7"

Off With Their Heads - Live at The Atlantic: Vol. II 7"

Off With Their Heads' Myspace

Here's some more OWTH material. This is them doing two songs at The Atlantic in Gainesville.

Ink & Dagger - Live on WKDU

Ink & Dagger - For All The Fucked Up Children... Ink & Dagger, Live on WKDU

Hardcore - Check.
Vampires - Check.
Eric of Tim & Eric's Awesome Show - Check?

Ink & Dagger were a hardcore band with a cult-like following from Philadelphia. Known for their fixation on vampires and pushing the hardcore genre, their career was cut short by the death of their singer. They'll be reuniting in August, with Thursday's Geoff Ricky on vocals, for at least one gig at This Is Hardcore Fest.

This is them playing live on WKDU back in '98, and definitely a must have for any fan. I don't know if Eric Wareheim actually played on this or not, but he did play bass in the band at some point.

Das Oath - Who's Your Daddy?

Das Oath - Who's Your Daddy? 11"

Das Oath's Myspace

Das Oath was Mark McCoy's band after Charles Bronson and hands down my favorite band of his (and one of my all around favorite bands in general).
They released a ton of material in a rather short time, most of which was only on vinyl and self-titled.

Everything they do is intense.
The music is mix of thrashcore, noise, and punk, and is some of the loudest, fastest music on earth. The vocals are unintelligible yet passionate and unlike anything I've ever heard. Their merch booth sold Das Oath brand vibrators and records with cover art to controversial to sell anywhere else.

This was their last album, which, according to the Ebullition newsletter, is called Who's Your Daddy? It's often confused with the Mini LP 11", and sometimes with the Korperkultur 10".

For those who are still confused (maybe more so now than they were before), the track listing on this one is:

1.Reliquary/Scrapped
2.Twinkle In An Eye About To Be Blackened
3.Tropical Malady
4.The Terror, The Delight, And The Unendurable Pointlessness Of Trying
5.Years of Veneers
6.All The Songs Have Been Sung

I love this band immensely so it's only a matter of time before I post the rest of their discography.

Now prepare to have your head get blown.

Here's a nice nice little pop punk split from two good bands.
