Seeing as I read this blog almost every day, it blew my mind to see my old band Threadbare with a track here. Casey, I was as surprised as anyone else to be included in this book and the subsequent release shows, since we were a short-lived band that never toured outside of the midwest and east coast. It has definitely been fun to relive some of that energy from 15+ years ago and catch up with other friends from that era. Thanks for the post.

Undertow was really important and influential along the West Coast. Kind of weird thinking about how much the internet has changed the way that "scenes" work and how things aren't regional in the way they used to be, but if I bang on about this stuff I'll just feel old.

I'll have to take a look at this since I too was immersed in the hardcore scene through that time. Thanks for the heads up.

i really wanted to like this book considering that was the time frame i was immersed in HC, but the book came out really really flat. too many of the same photos that were used a lot back then and some of the bands were head scratchers to say the least. i got about 10 pages in and then just thumbed through the rest.
