Interview with Freddy Cricien (@freddymb) from MADBALL; Playing @ECTsunami Fest this weekend!
In my humble opinion, NY Hardcore is where it all started. There may be a few of you out there who think D.C. did it first, or Boston is better, or ask what about California, but whatever. New York Hardcore not only helped to form the foundation of most scenes around the world, but is also one of the only scenes on the planet that still remains true to where it all started… The streets. And one cannot bring up a conversation about NYHC without mentioning the band that made it cool for little kids to scream into a microphone… Madball.
Interview with Mike Couls and Karl Buechner from Vehement Serenade; Playing East Coast Tsunami Fest
What do you get when you put members of Earth Crisis, Cro-Mags, Sworn Enemy, Skarhead, Cold As Life, and Sub Zero in a room together? Though it may sound like a college level lecture series on the history of NY Hardcore, it’s actually Vehement Serenade. As far as super-groups go, you’d be hard pressed to find this much talent in one musical outfit, but it’s here, and you should probably wear a helmet when you see them live.
