tireiron,
Funny you say that, because between the time of some old BFB and the time Ramallah came out, there was a long period of time that I didn't listen to
anything but Oi and a bit of old skinhead reggae. And I can say the same thing about how Ramallah made me feel. Maybe I'm just young at a
quarter-century or some of you other guys really old.  That's ok, I've always
felt like an old fucking man given my colleagues at any time in my life (including the present).

Interesting, I see Ramallah as moving VERY far away from what I can call Hard Core. It's odd that we share such a similar thought
and fell back on the same genres and yet we see two very different bands with the same nucleus in opposite lights.
And yeah, I'm old. In just over a month I will be 35, ten years your senior and yet here we are talking about a musical genre that some people would
say reached it's highest point many years ago when I was first getting into it and you were a toddler.

Wait, how old
are you??? I don't mean that in a derogatory sense, but either you discovered HC REALLY late in life or you are VERY young.

I know what you mean. I think the only reason I can even consider Ramallah to be hardcore is because there was a period where I went to every show
just to have something to do, and I saw way too many shitty (fill in the blank)-core bands. Especially too much metalcore. All of that basically
made me give up on anything related to "hardcore" since it strayed so far away from what it once was and, at the same time, lost all of its meaning.
Change is fine, but damn those bands sucked, and I had no idea what the fuck that had to do with hardcore, punk, oi, or any other genre I've ever
given a fuck about. One of the few bright spots in that time was catching KYI at some crappy fest in Gainesville, FL, that someone convinced me to go
to.
All of that being said, I still find it hard to tell myself a band plays hardcore when they go on tour with a keyboard player!

Biohazard - Urban Discipline. I saw the video for Punishment on Beavis and Butthead and got the tape. This really got me into a lot of heavier shit
and away from rap.
SOIA - Scratch the Surface. One of the first times i really recall hearing a heavy band singing with some type of a positive message in some of the
songs.
Misfits - everything. Rekindled me love of horror and got me to pay attention to a lot more punk.
Blood for Blood - Outlaw Anthems. For years I always thought of AF, SOIA and Murphy's Law as more punk bands. I always associated hardcore with the
straight-edge, posi, vegan, save the world shit since my only exposure was to bands like that. Once I heard this I realized I had been missing out on
an awful lot of good shit. The first time I heard Some Kind of Hate the hair on my neck stood up.

To answer your question I'm pretty young. I turned 18 a couple days ago. I found about Pride Kills through a friend of mine who was good friends with
Paul Nasty. He got PK to play at a reunion show for his band, Worm Suicide. Think I was around 15 at the time.

This is pretty much the order of bands/records that got me into hardcore. I don't think anything I listened to prior to that really had any impact on
me, though I was listening to bands like GNR, Crue, Def Lep and Bon Jovi, not much there that could change you life, haha.
SOD- Speak English or Die- A friend taped this for me after we were talking about music and what not. I guess he though I would be into it. I really
didn't listen to anything that hard at the time expect for Metallica and Megadeth, and even then I wasn't totally into them. SOD was different than
anything I had heard before.
The Exploited- Lets Start a War/Troops of Tomorrow- same dude that taped me SOD hooked me up with that those too. Again, totally different than
anything I had listened to before. I still have a soft spot in my heart for these guys just because this was the beginning of me getting into
hardcore.
McRad- Absense of Sanity- opened up the skaterock sound to me.
Misfits- Walk Among Us. One listen and I was hooked.
Minor Threat- Out of Step/7"s- another friend made me this tape. I guess the 1st traditional hardcore band I was exposed to. I was blown away.
YOT- We're Not in This Alone/Can't Close My Eyes- These were on the other side of the Minor Threat tape. Again, blown away. Their energy was
intense. Life was never the same.
My mind is Clear, Free from hurt. My mind is Clear, Value its worth!

I had to really think this one and I came up with this:
Cock Sparrer - Shock Troops...it basically was the first Oi!-record I heard and the whole experience was just like "wow". The melodies and the lyrics
really hit me hard and kinda sent me to the path I now live. It helped me to understand the value of true friends and honest work, it also helped me
to gain new friends and I remember countless bar nights when me and my cousin sang these Cock Sparrer-classics while walking to the bar or home. We
even had this own version of England belongs to me. We called it "Hyvink?? belongs to me" and it was dedicated to our little home town...good times,
brings alot of memories
