        Agnostic Front (early),  Cro Mags, Kraut,  can you count the Bad Brains?

          Kraut, wasn't expecting that one.  Always thought of them more in the punk vein.  I'd say BB is DC/NYC.  So basically nothing past '86?

            for me yes.    there were other bands that i liked, but none of them had the staying power like these bands and everything that came after them seemed to borrow from them very liberally.

            and its highly debateable but i would even include sonic youth in there.

              ^Agnostic Front (early) and Cro Mags are well chosen for NYHC, IMO. The point is, many "average" rock or metal fans think of SOIA as the typical hc band. I don't, to me the BAd Brains, Minor Threat, Adolescents, Black Flag, Middle Class, 7 Seconds, MDC (and german: Spermbirds and Inferno) and so on are "typical". SOIA come far beyond that.

                  Thread has fallen to the third page, that's unacceptable.

                  One of the most underrated bands & albums of that time, in my opinion.

                      i was taken aback when i first played that album… kinda like _whoa wait what? this is what ceremony is doing now?

                      cool._

                      as much as i like the 45-second mosh fodder stuff, they're really starting to hit their stride now

                        i think the new record is by far their best.  i could appreciate the other records for what they were but never found myself wanting to listen to them, but this record is honestly really interesting and i keep coming back to it.

                          Most probably nothing special to you guys, but I was honored to shake Roger Mirets hand after the show. There were just a few people who were in the mood to move their asses, and I was one of them.

                                  Few friends are trying to get me to see H20 in a few months, not feeling in 2011  ::)

                                  One great record from recent months is the Vaccuum seven on Lengua Armada, so simple yet oh so very real.

                                    OFF! is awesome! ive seen then 4 or 5 times now…i think they are the best band in hardcore right now. everything they have put out so far has been perfect.

                                      ^I think so, too. Of course I never saw Black Flag (especially not with Keith), but it gives me the chance to get a glimpse. Who would think that he's 55 now? I just read an interview with him and shared most of his views about the scene etc. Great guy!
