JB!

 

Attended Tied Down in Detroit over the weekend. Overall, it was awesome to see Trash Talk and several other good bands. Event was too long. There was noticeably less people after Never Ending Game played. I get they are the big Detroit hardcore band right now, but people passed on bands like Jesus Piece, Fiddlehead, and Trash Talk. There was another noticeable decline in people after Show Me The Body and Mindforce.

I think going to two days with 8-9 bands each day makes more sense. The venue is awesome and perfect for this type of event though.

 

I don't know if they fit in this thread but Taken are working on new material

 

what are the best diy hardcore labels these days? any tape specific labels?

 

Biased because it's local but Delayed Gratification Records

 

Literally ordered the new Rabbit and Captive tapes from them today.

I'd also add:
-New Morality Zine
-Sunday Drive Records
-Convulse Records
-Streets of Hate
-To Live A Lie
-DAZE
-Words of Fire

Not necessarily exclusively tape labels, but those are some of my recent favorites.

Edit - Also forgot the following:
-625 Thrashcore
-Iron Lung Records
-Trip Machine Labs
-Force of Reckoning Records
-No Time Records
-Not For The Weak Records
-11 PM Records
-Atomic Action Records

 

Delayed Gratification, New Morality Zine in Chicago, Sore Ear Collective in Rochester are some of my favorites and all do tapes. Streets of Hate does tapes too. Convulse, Daze, Other People Records, Forever Never Records, New Age, and Dropping Bombs are some other good labels off the top of my head.

I saw that! Don't really care about Movements, honestly haven't spent much time listening to them, but I'd be there for the openers.

 

Inside hate5six, the YouTube Channel That's Bringing Hardcore to the Masses

 

Had no idea that Scowl video has generated over 130, 000 views. That's insane. No wonder Limp Bizkit found them.

 

Lizzo Criticized Over New Split 7” With Spazz

I know this is related to an issue of accountability and an admirable correction of it, but I still laughed harder than I should have at this.

 

I have not been paying attention but are Power Trip going to continue or no?

 

I believe they will be releasing some new music. Not sure what that will mean entirely though.

 

I think it's uncertain at this point but it seems like the members are using the opportunity to give some love to their other projects.

 

Thanks, that makes sense, them and more recently, The Black Dahlia Murder (not hardcore, but still) losing their singers who were really important to the identity of the band makes me wonder if they would want to keep going or not.

 

I’ve assumed at some point whatever new music Power Trip had with Riley will see the light of day eventually. In terms of playing again, I could maybe see like a memorial show after the music is released and billed as a celebration of Riley and things like that in Dallas. Have a bunch of friends take turns doing songs, but I don’t really see the band continuing on beyond how it exists now.

 

Album officially drops July 8th on Flatspot.
