This Is Hardcore Podcast

Episode 64. Kevin Hare of Philly HC Shows. Kevin's love and dedication for hardcore knows no bounds, yet his impact isn't in bands he's been in etc, but in the long time support, the hours before and every show helping out and just being the ultimate champion of hardcore in the area in general. To celebrate his 35th Birthday, I wanted to have him back on the show and go deeper into his origins, finding hardcore and his general thoughts and feelings on things. He is one of my favorite people and someone who I rely on for so many things that without his help the many shows and fests would have a much different outcome. His presence has made everything we do better and I appreciate him for being there always.

Episode 63. Carter Holmes of From Within Records & Payback/Off The Tracks. I've been saying that he was a future podcast guest, and with FYA weekend upon us, no better time to bring him on. His humble beginnings finding hardcore in one of southernmost hardcore scenes in the US is already a phenomenal story, but it goes beyond that. From venturing beyond his home of Mobile, AL to hitting the road and finding hardcore friends from Florida to the Northeast and beyond, it made a lasting impression on him. He would eventually begin his label From Within helping release his friends demo tape. From Within would go quickly from a small diy label to a force to be reckoned with, releasing some of the best up and coming bands of the last few years in hardcore as well as releasing 2 of the One Scene Unity Comps which have become the Call For Unity/ Where the Wild Things Are of the modern days. His spirit and love for hardcore shines on this interview and as a younger guy whose heart and soul is put into the music and the scene, I am glad to have finally had him on the show. www.instagram.com/fromwithinrecords fromwithinrecords@gmail.com Opening Track " Detonate" by Despize .. off the Split with Deklination which is a split release between From Within and Northern Unrest. www.despizehc.bandcamp.com/ www.instagram.com/despizehardcore

Episode 62 . Rob Lind of Blood For Blood and Ramallah. Happy New Year! Welcoming in 2022 with a conversation with a friend whose story as far as I'm concerned has yet to be told from his perspective and needs to be heard. Rob Lind is the creative force behind both Blood For Blood and Ramallah. We speak on the early days of his life, the origins of Blood For Blood and then we go deeper into the his personal life and his own dealings with the devil and coming to full sobriety. Rob is an amazing artist, with lightning fast wit and a razor sharp tongue who showed a side of himself that is not only a testament to who he is as a person to come full circle but also sheds new light over his career. This is easily my favorite conversation for the show to date. I really hope you enjoy and please pass it on to others who may be in need of guidance or just to hear his story. www.youtube.com/c/WhiteTrashRobOFFICIAL www.downrightmerchinc.com/collections/rob-from-nod www.facebook.com/groups/TNHITO www.gofundme.com/f/eddie-leeways-fight-with-cancer www.gofundme.com/f/help-mark-fight-back-against-his-cancer www.gofundme.com/f/roger-miret-needs-our-help Opening Track of the Episode " Unlawful Execution " by The Chisel, from their Retaliation LP (released Nov 2021) www.instagram.com/thechiseluk www.thechisel.bandcamp.com/
