Transitions – Positive Hardcore — Independent, 2008

This CD is a three song demo of 90's hardcore on the posi tip (obviously). It sounds like a cross between Mouthpiece and Undertow. So you probably already tell I like this. It's a complete throwback to when I got into hardcore and not breaking any new ground but for three tracks you really can't complain. It's heavy with simple riffs that sometimes pick up the pace. Every song has a part where everyone else stops playing besides the bass player. That's the part when you stage dive. If you like 90's hardcore like me, I'd urge to get this. Contact this band on their Myspace and I'm sure you can still snag one of these if you want.

House Of All

Inklings
Tiny Global Productions (2026)

Six blokes who survived the Mark E. Smith sausage-squeezing meat grinder, plus a beautiful Blue Orchid for good measure. But if you’re turning up to Inklings expecting some pathetic karaoke penny on the eyes wake, you’re completely barking up the wrong great Deku tree. Not a tribute act. It’s a cash-in-hand inheritance from a filthy-rich uncle… let's call him Uncle … Read more
