“People talk about what makes music good. I say to hell with all that. But what I can tell you is this: I’ve had a better time listening to this record than I’ve had listening to anything else that’s come down the pike of these gone-dead days in a long, long time.”
—NICK TOSCHES
At the risk of repeating myself, thank you all so much for the music. The latest album is utterly ferocious, cathartic and soulful all at once, and it hits home for me on more levels than I can properly express...
I have always told people that beyond any transient notions of "musical genre"--that Hardcore is ultimately a thing of the heart. What you guys do (so very, very well) absolutely confirms my statement as a rock-solid fact.
So, cheers to ya, guys--stay strong, be well, and keep on keeping on! Till again!
You guys, I picked up a copy of the Warped Tour '08 Compilation CD and I heard your song on their and it was intense! I loved your unique style and honestly, I think it could be one of the best songs on the CD!
You're in like a genre of your own. It's really cool. I think you guys have some serious talent. Keep up the awesome work and keep crankin' out awesome tunes!
"Ignorance is bliss....I wish I knew how" Yep, that's me. Well thanks for the add. Glad to you see you're still rocking and that you're back in Brooklyn. I remember seeing you at a diner on Atlantic Avenue like 15 years ago.
Lovin the Soul, some people can't live with change. Keep up the video posts. They are quickly becoming my favorite thing about the space. Come to Boston. Bring the horns.
