| *GKdc | Although VIC HC does seem to be the most prevalent right now, (all two bands of it...) we are pushing for a stronger unified front, encompassing not just Victoria, but the rest of vancouver Island. I want to see HC in every city. VanIsle Motherfucking Crew! GO! - Fri, 2 May 2003 10:55pm | ||

| josh Nails User Info... | I can see how we may be considered old school, I mean American Nightmare, or should I say Give Up the Ghost are pretty old school sounding and we have some parts similar to them. I think we are old school in the sense that we arent super metal. I dunno... - Wed, 7 May 2003 3:14pm | ||

| *GKdc | Come check out some of the VanIsle HardCore we're getting going (May 17th, May 30thm June 18th)...you'll see the GO!'s in force. Just try it at home. Extend an arm (left or right, it doesn't matter) point your finger straight up, yell GO! You can even jump while you do it. It's all most as much fun as floorpunching. - Thu, 8 May 2003 12:06pm | ||
| karl buechner | Hardcore, even more than most subcultures, was a sea of contradictions. It placed a premium on non-conformism, but a great deal of the music adhered to extremely clich�d conventions (the number of hardcore songs starting with a blast of guitar distortion, a shouted "1, 2, 1-2-3-4," followed by a dog-pulls-the-tablecloth-off-the-kitchen-during-di nner blur of chords, must number in the thousands). Its politics were generally well to the left of center (sometimes openly proclaiming anarchy), yet its fashions and sometimes even music were picked up by some Fascist and neo-Nazi youth. It placed great value on the message of the lyrics, which were often shouted so throatily as to be indecipherable. The music was played violently, confrontationally; the lyrics often preached tolerance, unity, and peace. Laudably, it championed racial and sexual equality; its performers and audience were usually White and male. It preached against apathy, and advocated social change, but often reduced larger society to cartoon stereotypes, and was defiantly inaccessible and uncommercial, ensuring that the vast majority of rock listeners (let alone the population) would never hear the music. And when performers with roots in the thrash community did attract a larger audience, they were invariably accused by large segments of said community of selling out. - Thu, 8 May 2003 2:57pm | ||
| *GKdc | The language you are using is misleading. It sounds as though hardCore was a thing of the past. Which I can assure you quite heartily, it is not. Perhaps to you, but not to the rest of us. Sometimes the fire never really goes out. Hope to see you at the show "karl". - Thu, 8 May 2003 3:33pm | ||
