Interviews

Five For Five With Todd Mackey of With Honor

Posted by Dan Farrar · January 02, 2020

One of the most criminally underrated bands of the scene and released the best album in the Victory Records catalogue, "This Is Our Revenge". Yes, i'm well aware Earth Crisis, Hatebreed, Snapcase, Strife and A Day To Remember (ha!) have all released monumental albums on that label, so don't @ me!

Five For Five With Daniel Kehrli of Vale Tudo

Posted by Dan Farrar · December 23, 2019

Vale Tudo have been killing it since 2006. Their relentless brand of hardcore will appeal to fans of Lionheart, Madball & Terror.

Five For Five With Drew Gardner of Totally Unicorn

Posted by Dan Farrar · December 02, 2019

Another band from my neck of the woods is Totally Unicorn. They play the sort of aggressive hardcore that will knock your cock in your wash-pocket, should you dig bands like Converge, The Dillinger Escape Plan & Daughters.

Five For Five with Josh Francisco of Outsider / BloodRitual & (sometimes) Dead Heat.

Posted by Dan Farrar · November 20, 2019

Josh shreds in Outsider & BloodRitual. I had the pleasure of meeting him when Dead Heat rolled through Zurich on the last stop of tour as he was filling in on guitar. A nicer bunch of people you will never meet and no shit, Josh is one of the most talented guitar players I’ve seen live.

Five For Five with Greg Bennick of Bystander

Posted by Dan Farrar · November 15, 2019

If you dig hardcore like Bane, Battery, Trial etc then you need Bystander in your life. If you want to check out Trial, the only think that’s in print is this. It’s all good, so check them out if you are unfamiliar with them. They had an EP out on New Age too, which is included in that compilation.

Five For Five with Mike Gallo of Agnostic Front

Posted by Dan Farrar · November 07, 2019

When it comes to hardcore bands, there are few, if any, bigger and more important than the legendary Agnostic Front. Every time i've seen them play, they destroy the place. As busy as he is, Mike Gallo (bass) was kind enough to participate in this series. They've got a new record out that you can get here and a new 7inch, that you can get here.
