Nancy Barile: The Godmother of Straight Edge, Award-Winning Author, Remembering Al Barile

We're joined by Nancy Barile, award-winning author of "I'm Not Holding Your Coat", an insightful chronicle of her life as an OG Philadelphia/Boston punk who lived through the golden age of hardcore music as it evolved in real time before her eyes. The Ramones, Bad Brains, Misfits, Minor Threat, Black Flag... You name it, she saw it. We talk about the legendary brawl in Kensington, booking the infamous "Gathering of the Tribes" show, cold calling CBGBs to get bands booked, and bumping elbows with just about every legendary figure in hardcore punk, and much more. Her husband, the late great Al Barile of SSD, was a pioneer of the straight edge movement and a name brought up often on HardLore throughout the years. He sadly passed away in April of 2025, and we talk all about their chance meeting, his impact on us, and share stories of Al through the years and look back at his perception of how straight edge and hardcore music have grown since his early days in SSD. An incredibly informative and cathartic conversation and an episode we've wanted to make happen for a long time. Thank you Nancy for joining us and all of you for watching/listening. RIP Al Barile. ________________ Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf) HardLore: A Knotfest Series Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepod Join the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef Cool links: HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.com Try AG1 and AGZ at DrinkAG1.com/HARDLORE to receive a free frother. Get 15% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code HARDLORE at MANSCAPED.com! #ad #manscapedpod FOLLOW NANCY: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/nancybarile/ FOLLOW HARDLORE: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/ TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepod SPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrp APPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2 FOLLOW COLIN: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/ FOLLOW BO: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/ TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE_______________________00:00:00 - Start 00:00:57 - Hello Welcome 00:03:48 - Discovering Punk in It's Infancy 00:15:56 - Catholic School, The Who, McDonald's 00:18:22 - Connecting with Students Through Punk 00:26:53 - Ramones at University of PA 00:31:02 - The Misfits in 1981 00:34:35 - Managing the Sadistic Exploits 00:43:14 - Meeting Al Barile 00:56:15 - Pardon This Interruption 00:58:54 - Kenmore Square 01:05:01 - The Bad Brains & Homophobia 01:09:41 - Black Flag, SOA, And Kensington Brawl 01:23:43 - Exiting Hardcore Before the Late 80's Boom 01:33:31 - Straight Edge's Evolution 01:43:10 - Remembering Al Barile & Celebrating His Legacy Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Haunting of The Chicago Metro (A HauntLore Special)

HardLore's spooky spin-off is back... Welcome to HauntLore VII: Where we explore The very haunted Chicago Metro.This iconic Chicago landmark broke ground in 1927, but transitioned into an all purpose live music venue and dance club in 1979, and the basement's "Smartbar" was one of the earliest regular homes to Industrial music throughout it's infancy...But a few mysteries and tragedies haunt the walls of the Metro, where a dramatic suicide, the tragic death of a child, and a pair of disembodied legs are said to roam the building at night. Watch as we thoroughly explore the unseen corners of this nearly 100 year old build and learn the sad origins of the spirits within. Thanks to Joe, Kristy, Skunk, Three and the Metro for having us!Edited by Sean Say (@seansay) • Shot by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf)___________________________Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggefHardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comFOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/ColinYovngFOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe#HARDLORE #HARDCORE__________________________0:00:00 - Start0:00:27 - The Chicago Metro0:02:09 - Bo Didn't Go/The Pit0:03:34 - The Top Note Theater0:05:01 - "Marilyn"0:07:05 - Guns N Roses - Use Your Illusion0:09:21 - The Top Note Through the Years0:15:38 - The "Elevator Boy"0:17:55 - The Smartbar's Haunted Bathroom0:19:30 - He Said It Not Me0:21:56 - Smartbar0:23:40 - The Green Room (Scary for other reasons)0:26:28 - The Legendary Midnight Show0:29:23 - The Stage0:30:34 - Wesley Willis0:32:54 - The Deadliest Brawl0:33:47 - Kristy's Tale0:39:36 - Skunk's Tale0:46:57 - Three's Tale0:53:00 - Final Thoughts (Obituary Voice) Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Davey Havok Part 2: 2003 - 2025 (A HardLore Special)

HardLore is joined by AFI vocalist Davey Havok in person at Brain Dead Studios for part 2 of this landmark episode.The second half of this 4+ hour conversation contains all things AFI from 2003 to present day, starting with their historic launch into the mainstream with their 2003 masterpiece, and many people's gateway to punk, hardcore, etc: "Sing the Sorrow", the nearly impossible task of following it up with the 2006 smash hit "Decemberunderground", the sudden end of the commercial success with "Crash Love", the miracle of "Burials", and all things "Blood Abum", "Bodies" and beyond as we prepare for the arrival of their new album and biggest sonic departure yet, "Silver Bleeds the Black Sun..." via Run For Cover Records.We hope you enjoy part 2 of this incredible conversation and we thank Davey for his time, and Brain Dead for the space.Make up by the great and powerful Leah Carmichael._____________________________Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven)Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf)Thumbnail by Carrie JendrusikHardLore: A Knotfest SeriesJoin the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef Cool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comTry AG1 at DrinkAG1.com/HARDLORE to receive a free 1-year supply of vitamin D and 5 travel packs of AG1. FOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2 FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/ FOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE____________________________00:00:00 - Start00:00:42 - Sing The Sorrow00:21:31 - Just Like Heaven MTV Icons Performance00:25:18 - Decemberunderground00:35:54 - Crash Love00:48:19 - Burials01:06:32 - Pardon This Interruption01:08:01 - Writers Block/The Blood Album01:10:57 - Personal Connections With The AFI Audience01:17:13 - Being Knighted by Peter Murphy01:27:03 - Bodies01:32:48 - When Does AFI start writing? / Silver Bleeds The Black Sun...01:39:40 - Writing Lyrics Before Music01:54:28 - Davey's Top 4 HC Records Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Davey Havok Part 1: 1991 - 2003 (A HardLore Special)

HardLore is joined by AFI vocalist Davey Havok in person at Brain Dead Studios for a landmark episode, weeks before the release of their new album "Silver Bleeds the Black Sun" on Run For Cover Records.Part 1 of this 4+ hour conversation begins with Davey's origin to punk/hardcore music, and by association, straight edge and veganism. We thoroughly dive into AFI's chronology, beginning in 1991 when he started the band with drummer Adam Carson in high school, to all the twists and turns before finally adding long time bass player Hunter Burgan, and the guitar player that would ultimately define the AFI sound: Jade Puget.We discuss "Answer That and Stay Fashionable", frustrations with Nitro Records throughout "Very Proud of Ya", "Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes" and beyond, fully coming into their own with "Black Sails in the Sunset", wearing their love of the Misfits on their sleeves on the "A Fire Inside" & "All Hallows" EPs, "The Art of Drowning" being their first record to chart on Billboard, his experience making the Son of Sam record with the 2000 lineup of Samhain just a few years before "Sing the Sorrow" would take over the world, the severe damage done to his voice by singing in his iconic incomparable register throughout the past three decades, and much, MUCH more.We hope you enjoy part 1 of this incredible conversation and we thank Davey for his time, and Brain Dead for the space. Through our bleeding, we are one.Make up by the legendary Leah Carmichael, who expertly covered up the most horrific zit I’ve ever had. I’m serious. She’s a magician.______________________________________Filmed, mixed and edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf)HardLore: A Knotfest SeriesJoin the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggefCool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.com______________________________________FOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/ColinYovngFOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE______________________________00:00:00 - Start00:04:00 - Finding Punk/Hardcore00:11:32 - Vegan Straight Edge00:15:34 - Broken Noses (everyone was dancing)00:18:53 - Defining Hardcore00:24:11 - Finding His Voice00:28:15 - "Asking For It"00:30:22 - Early AFI00:35:17 - Answer That and Stay Fashionable00:41:37 - Very Proud Of Ya00:46:10 - The Beauty of Physical Media00:47:22 - He Who Laughs Last video00:53:51 - Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes00:58:20 - The Many Eras of Davey's Image01:04:28 - Single Second/Musicals01:07:28 - A Fire Inside EP01:13:16 - Top 4 Misfits Tracks01:18:18 - Black Sails In the Sunset/Jade Puget01:29:49 - All Hallows EP01:38:50 - The A Perfect Circle Line Incident01:48:17 - The Art Of Drowning02:05:58 - Son of Sam Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
