oh man, verse and comeback kid are totally the kinds of bands that started to get me into "modern hardcore" as it is these days. if you like those guys, that kind of melodic/fast/still hard sort of hardcore, check out:
Champion
Bane
Have Heart
Go It Alone
old With Honor
Blue Monday
Sinking Ships
Killing the Dream
Betrayed
Set it Straight
Miles Away
xLooking Forwardx

I love this kind of stuff a lot. I was in a local hardcore band called Drop Off for a very brief amount of time. I tried to write stuff like this but I guess the drummer wasn't into it.

also, by weird coincidence, I've seen almost every band in that list. I missed out on xLooking Forwardx when they played Vancouver, Betrayed broke up and didn't play a show they were supposed to in Van, and With Honor never really kept me hooked in the way they do to other people. - Thu, 13 Nov 2008 9:15am Edited: Thu, 13 Nov 2008 9:18am

The Answer

Modern Life is War...

All hardcore sounds the same. That being said, I'm finishing my BANE tattoo soon. Also, I have a Gorilla Biscuits tattoo. I suggest both of those bands. - Thu, 13 Nov 2008 3:23pm

you don't play drums by any chance do you?

and damn, so many bands listed i can't keep track of whats been said.

Soul Control

Troy and Tyler have told you alot, my advice is check out bands they thank (if you have there records) or there "top 8" on myspace (i know it sounds lame, but you'll find alot of bands that way).

I don't think we've ever met, next hardcore show if you're there say hi. I'll be the kid with a Raiders hat. - Thu, 13 Nov 2008 7:04pm

a lot of what's been listed is a pretty far step from bands like verse and comeback kid now. not that it matters. just sayin', this is turning into a catch-all hardcore of all sorts thread now. - Fri, 14 Nov 2008 9:04am

well hardcore of all sorts is still good haha

as last time it was one for more "heavy" hardcore...
which slowly got into stuff like this...
now its going the other way.


anywaysssss
hope to see you out at some hardcore shows in the future! - Fri, 14 Nov 2008 2:02pm
