yeah...i'm an east coaster. as faras other bands and scenes i was into, i was all over the place. i was obsessed with left coast music like i said, UC, insted, reason to believe. i also liked the "wierder" suff of the time like pitchfork and fishwife. at the same time as all this was going on, i was also massively obsessed with DC bands like ignition and faith and rites of spring and all that shit. later on i got into stuff like unbroken, groundwork, heroin, and allthat stuff (i was also playing in a band at the time which played with all these bands and were in the same vein, i wont say the name out of embarrassment). but i've been all over the place and still am. always alot of jazz and metal and country and english stuff. i have been known to be massively obsessed with into another and rain like the sound of trains. greatest bands of all time are swiz and soulside. there is no argueing that. if you dont agree you are either an idiot or you were born in the 80s.

you're from L.A. right? For me it was such a pain in the ass to go to shows in L.A. 'cause it seemed so far and my car was a piece o' shit. The places I would go to the most for shows were some place called 8 1/2 in Fullerton (I think?) and a place called The Ice House or somethin like that. That was a cool place.

I saw 108 as late as... Hmm... let me see, I think it must've been '96 or maybe even '97 along with shelter. A friend and I were like the oldest guys there... felt really awkward...

Iceburn!

how funny... at one point we probably were all in the same sweaty pit at the same time... and never met. Now meeting on NT.
I'm so nostalgic...

Vic was THE dopest. 108 was a sick band man.

I used to have a pretty dope vhs of one of the late Inside Out shows.. where they did the song rage against the machine, and a few other unrealesed stuff... too bad vic wasn't with them anymore... dude was the best guitarist i ever saw do a hardcore show.
- lilbabyleg0
it was in Simi Valley I think? or Moor Park. that's where it was! Moor Park. It was Strife's very first show. They used to be called Stand As One. I still have their tape somewhere.

The Hardstance stuff was dope. Still like that Inside Out record [the cd w/ 4 songs... not just hte 7"]
As far as Hardcore remembrences... best show i ever saw was Turning Point's final dc show w/ Burn and No Escape right after the Turning Point / No Escape split dropped. Classic record btw...

yikes!! Outspoken... that's another one I forgot about...
Wait a minute...? That strife/outspoken show? Where was it? I saw them together in some Elk's lodge in (i think) long beach... I could be wrong, you know, the memory is the first thing to go...
- lilbabyleg0
Insted! hell yeah I saw them at the Palladium with Bad Religion.
No for an answer! Chain of Strength. Strife, Judge, Helicopter, Burn,
I saw strife's FIRST show. when they played as Stand as One with Outspoken.

ha ha... you're from east coast. I grew up in Orange County. But I was always more into the east coast bands. I was (still am) a big minor threat fan. Fugazi still rocks...
Yes! insted and uniform choice...I have a friend that got knocked up by the sensefield guitar player... (the guy is kind of a dick actually, but I still liked their music...)
Do you listen to any of that stuff still, or have you strictly moved on and grown up...?
I've broadened my horizons a lot more, but I still have a soft spot for all of that music. There was something very real about it.

well damn...now you people are talking my language. i grew up on that shit. insted, uniform choice, carry nations, no for an answer, reason to believe (sensefield). the list goes on. i grew up on the east coast but had a fascination with what was going on on the west at the time (late 80's). this is making me feel really old. i mean, i am probably older than most of the people on here....and i would venture that most dont even know what the fuck we are talking about. but cool. at least there are a few here that know whats up...and can laugh about it. reason to believe and uniform choice was probably the greatest show i have ever seen in my life, and probably ever will see. 1987 i believe. shit...crazy times...crazy times.

Holy fucking shit...!!
'tis a small world I guess... I didn't think anyone here on NT would even know who 108 was, let alone Chorus of Disapproval. Ha... I was never one of the vynil collectors, but I still have their CD's. I liked Chorus at the shows, but it wasn't the same in the CD. I still remember one show where the bass player (I forget his name, but he's a really big dude) jumped from the stage to beat the shit out of a skinhead that was mouthing off and being a dick.
Ok... let me rattle off some old O.C. and other hardcore bands and let me know if you guys recognize any of them...Farside (Popeye lead singer)
Cold Water Crane (Singer was Rachel Stolte. She started another band after that, but the name just totally escapes me)
Sensefield (well, they went on to a major didn't they)
Texas is the reason.
411Arrghh.. I forget there's many others. I still have somewhere a CD with a compilation of a bunch of the bands on the Revelation label. I don't have it handy though.
I'm getting all sappy with memories...

damn 108! they were sick! so was shelter! ha that's too funny bro.
yeah I remember when rage came out I was like hostile for a minute cuz Zack was suddenly a rapper or something. even though I love hip hop I was just not used to Zack spitting rhymes. But it grew on me cuz the lyrics were still pretty raw considering it was a major label. I like RATM for sure. But damn I was soooo into Hardsatance and Inside Out.
remember Carry Nation or Chorus of Disapproval? Or maybe Social Justice?

Thanks, pretty fresh track.
- lilbabyleg0
Inside Out put out there record in 1990. It was cool because Zack kept that band going even during RATM. I saw Inside Out play at a garage deep in the valley in 1994 or something.
hardstance was from OC in 1988 they put out a sick little seven inch. I'm going to try to get some mp3's made from my 7 inch.
