Episode 133 Jami Morgan of Code Orange 3 years ago as this podcast started, I had Jami on Episode 8. In the last 1000 days give or take, Code Orange managed to continue to press the boundaries of the music industry and themselves to new heights. Their latest efforts have featured Billy Corgan and showcased both a growth mindset in their writing and refinement in their ability to drop some heavy riffs into a song. Their new LP The Above drops September 29th. Their release party will be at Preserving Underground in Pittsburg Pa September 30th featuring Madball, Etown Concrete, Pain Of Truth and more. www.codeorange.komi.io www.instagram.com/codeorangetoth Opening Track Of The Episode xNomadx - Now - off the demo www.4ephyra.bandcamp.com/track/now

Episode 131 Tony Rettman . Author of NYHC and other books Growing up the kid brother of the City Gardens DJ is a sick way to walk into hardcore punk. His first show he wasn't out of grade school. Over time he would go from writing zines to writing freelance articles for multiple magazines. Eventually he would work with Revelation Records on Why be something you're not, focusing on the early Detroit scene. Later he would work on the collection of interviews for NYHC - 1980-1990 which would end up being released on Bazillion Points. His latest was Straight Edge - A Clear headed Hardcore Punk history also on Bazillion points. This was a fun one with alot of insight in how the writing side works on articles, zines and books. There is alot more to his story that he tells better than I can type out. www.rettman.substack.com (go here to purchase signed copies of books) www.instagram/no.idols.hc www.revhq.com/products/tony-rettman-why-be-something-that-youre-not-dcore-1979-1w www.bazillionpoints.com/books/nyhc-new-york-hardcore-1980-1990-by-tony-rettman/ www.bazillionpoints.com/books/straight-edge-a-clear-eyed-hardcore-punk-history-by-tony-rettman/ RIP Dave Stein - clips taken from www.youtu.be/Nr8BOcyi3EY?si=xtVtY5s-ZxnnPVs_ Opening Track of Episode Worn - Burning Dread from Condensing Flesh From Within Records www.instagram.com/wornhardcore www.instagram.com/fromwithinrecords

Episode 130 Nancy Barile RIP Flippy Nancy Barile is an Philadelphia Hardcore Original. She wrote a book "I'm Not Holding Your Coat" on her path to punk rock and beyond featuring some of the iconic early moments of Philadelphia's burgeoning Hardcore scene. Our conversation goes alongside and beyond the book to Philly- centric and cultural happenings of the times. Her story is a great first hand account of the early days of what we would eventually inherit as our own scene. So many great stories that I'll leave her to tell it in the book and on here.

Episode 126 DWID Hellion. With This Is Hardcore 2023 just 2 weeks away, it was time to sit down with a legendary figure in Hardcore and a pioneer in pushing the boundaries of the genre in many ways. We talk of his childhood and its influences which would later come out in much of his music and art. Dwid had a very heavy influence in taking hardcore punk beyond the cookie cutter images and lyrical tropes with Integrity, the seminal Cleveland Based hardcore/metalcore band that has been a favorite in the underground for decades.

Episode 125 Some thoughts that come from greater minds than mine. With the summer comes everyone too busy to come on a podcast so I had been pulling together some ideas when Norman Brannon's relaunch of Anti-Matter as a substack spurned some real energy into my brain for the first time in awhile in a way that only someone like Norm and his words could inspire. For those of you who don't know what a substack is, its a way writers can offer their time and craft and be supported by those who wish to support them. www.antimatter.substack.com Follow and support the relaunch of one of the most pivotal zines of the 90's hardcore zines For most of episode I try to pull together some ideas from my library to engage you all to think further on the subject of hardcore and selling out etc, but I don't feel like I put it together tight enough. In time I'll get better at it, but it was fun to chat with you all for a bit.
