Im stuck in the early 90's punk scene

Thanks for this--will check it out.

If you dig embrace, in the mid 90s a benefit comp came out called "Land of Greed World of Need", all 90s hardcore bands covering the embrace record. Its really good, or at least I really like it!

It is no longer in production and is available free online. Follow the link here: xSTUCK IN THE PASTx: Land of Greed... World of Need - A Homeless Benefit Compilation (1994)

This just popped up in my blog reader, Ignition, a late 80s DC band with Alex Mackeye and the usual crew.

I have been loving Bouncing Souls of late:

SHARK ATTACK!

I'm into some Good Riddance lately. Saw them twice in shows. Hard to beat.

I saw them live a couple times in the late 90's. I was 17. Great band! awesome shows.

[acotts]

Just got tickets to see Bad Brains in DC. Fuck Ya!!!

Its gonna be shit show. An old style DC throwdown...except everyone is 30 years older.

[lukasz]

uhhh. are there still tickets?

oh while I'm here: apparently Refused is touring.. right now. WTF.

Whoa! Thanks for the heads-up. I don't think I've seen them live since 1986 at the WUST Music Hall -- great show. I'm just not sure I'd feel comfortable in the thrash pit now that I'm in my 40s.

saw fugazi sometime around '90
I have a friend who still can't get enough misfits

[airedale]

That was one strange show...easily the most bizaar show ever. H.R. is not doing to well. He was nutty in 81 and the following 30 years have not been kind.

Refused is doing shows with Off! who feature Keith Morris as a frontman. That show has the potential to have the most songs per minute of any this year.

[lukasz]

Hm I didn't know that. Refused is a guilty pleasure but they fit with the theme of the thread :p I'd only be paying to hear one song.

[lenny]

any dk fans here?....

i saw dk in '86, right before they broke up. ugly show. their rawhide cover is still one of my all time favorites.

[Brandon White]

Does Shellac count? Maybe that's more mid-late 90's.
At Action Park
Terraform
1000 Hurts

Those rock my balls off every time.

[WadePatton]

quick note, possibly unrelated as i'm trying to do paperwork/biz at the same time damned printer/scanner crap.

i'm digging some Betty Blowtorch these days. it's kinda old "girl punkmetal" with a bit of motorhead influence. track 15 on Are You Man Enough (2001)is dead-on MH style.

best tracks: 1,6,12,15. enjoy

[acotts]

I'll have to pick that up. The wifey loves that stuff.

[lumpy]

I'm happy to see this thread alive as the closest I got to a Fugazi show was driving around the outskirts of Olympia WA in 1987ish looking for a church where they were supposed to be playing. Never found it. I haven't listened to much of this lately but boy it holds up well and brings me back. I did see Mission of Burma a few years ago; they did great especially given that they were playing an art museum.

Just saw Bad Brains with H2O and Scream at Irving Plaza, and yes, HR was pretty much not there. But the other three guys still brought it pretty hard. And seeing Scream was a serious bonus.

[AJPM44]

One of the best live shows I ever saw.
