I think they are considered hardcore adjacent.

 

It's Revolver so the top of their list shouldn't be surprising at all, but the Candy Apple and Ekulu mentions make this a great list for a mainstream rock publication.

 

That is true. I agree with you

 

I’m impressed to see Scowl on there. That does not seem like Revolver material.

 

I listened to the last The Armed record and it didn't really stick with me, and I think their gimmick is pretty stupid. Really undeniably talented musicians though.

 

I think we are going to be seeing The Armed and Turnstile on just about every list.

 

Turnstile is definitely going to be the token hardcore/punk record on most publication lists, I agree

 

The Armed and Turnstile are gonna be this year's breakout mentions for more mainstream publications too IMO. Not a fan of The Armed and I definitely won't rate the Turnstile record that highly, but it's undeniable the impact both have had. Knocked Loose will probably get the nod in more rock oriented publications too like the Revolvers and the Kerrangs.

 

I rest my case

I haven't even listened to 3/4 of those records and that still feels like a safe list to me.

 

Yeah, it’s like 95% hip hop/r&b

 

The armed and turnstile both deserve the praise

 

They do, but it doesn't detract from the fact that they'll be the token hardcore mentions on mainstream lists when there's a lot of other records both hardcore and adjacent that are equally deserving of the praise - two of which are on the Revolver list to me (Candy Apple, Ekulu).

Still need to dig into the Scowl album, but since Nate gave it a good mention here, I'll add it to my queue for tomorrow.

 

Holy shit - Media, PA?

 

Is that the Philly equivalent of driving to a show in Joliet that's the Chicago area date?

 

Kind of. Media is a little closer to Philly. I think Joliet is like an hour away from Chicago

 

What is with people putting up unreadable show flyers? Lol

 

I think someone already posted this but it kicks ass. I want more!

 

Scowl record is fun. Anyone know who does guest vox? I think I hear dude from Drain on “Fuck Around”

 

I’ll bet you will never guess who is on this one.
