"This was actually the first hardcore record I got. Someone told me that if I was into metal (check) and punk (check), then I'd like hardcore because it was a mix of the two. Whether or not that's true, I fucking love SOIA. My old band, Million Dead, were lucky enough to do some shows with them, and they remain a masterclass in a kickass live show, putting bands half their age to shame."

Under-rated band gets new lease of life
Bear Vs Shark are one of those bands, too heavy for the indie kids, too indie for the hardcore kids.

This is discordant indie rock with powerchords, or post hardcore to some. Indie gone punk. And it's done brilliantly. Here their first two albums get remastered and put on one disc. The gruff gravel vocals are raw and blistering and Buses No Buses is just an anthem. Brilliant band and so underrated

"Really Red are from Texas and they released Teaching You The Fear in 1981. My friend Smithy and I had a fanzine called Attack and that was one of the records that came through. Our first band Mr. Epp eventually played with them. There's a lot going on in that band for a so-called hardcore punk band. There was a lot of cool stuff coming out of Texas in the early 80s like Big Boys and The Dicks, a little later the Butthole Surfers. Really Red was quite a political band. So many political punk bands were really strident like Crass but in the wake of Maximumrocknroll fanzine many of them were 16-year-old kids spouting shit about stuff they didn't really understand. And who wants to take advice from someone with a very small worldview? Really Red were a little older, maybe five to eight years older than me, and I know this because Ronnie Bond eventually moved up to Seattle and I got to know him a little. Those guys were old enough that when The MC5 came through Houston in the early 70s they hung out with them. Really thoughtful guys but most importantly kick-ass songs. Kelly Younger was a really unique guitar player. They also referenced Nico and The Velvet Underground as well as political punk stuff. They just seemed a little broader than a lot of things that were happening at the time in the hardcore scene in particular."
