Was to short a set
Spent a ā ā ā ā tonne of time listening to Fugazi over the weekend. This ones not a bad live set, synched with quality audio. Just trying to find a better set list (for me) with the synched audio from their collection.
Easily the best punk bad for me.

$14 jugs of Coopers, thatās about $7 a pint.
The real trick with the arty was to start a ā ā ā ā ā ā band and then get paid to watch the great local bands you wanted to see and get drink cards.

First cab off the rank bands that had basically had a demo or two out on tape in the 90ās or around the millennium burned to CDR. I remember seeing some great hardcore and early 90ās bands ripping off Moss Icon but hell I didnāt know any better, nor did it really matter. Hauling their amps through a few punters after the set. Good days.

Moss Icon! I had a band that got compared to them and had to go back and find out who they were. There really was that sound through the Arty, I think Rites of Spring were often a touch point for bands.

I saw a lot of Away from now and Horsell common open for hardcore bands and identity theft open for metal and hardcore bands. Potamus (canāt think of what they changed their name to) were a great opener.

God, you can sometimes just tell what a band sounds like by simply looking at the name. There was that phase after post hardcore bands like Texas is the Reason (who comes to mind for some reason) where you had emo and post hardcore and on the rare occasion hardcore bands with gentle names that sounded like a rural area like Sense Field or Sommerset.
For ā ā ā ā ā n giggles, I told a mate who is abroad recently I was starting up a throwback left wing hardcore band called Southpaw. Hardcore bands loved to fetishise a bit of a street fight reference like Toe To Toe or Chain of Strength.

You can describe the band name like this
āVerb the nounā
with some sh*t logo some 16 year old mocked up in graphics class.

Iāve not been in a band, nor have I directed a music video. But showing your live show and itās just two guys swinging their arms on the dance floor makes you seem kinda lame. Oh, and instead of getting on some kind of charter flight for the big tourā¦Jetstar!! Lol hardcore, rightā¦

With no backingā¦most bands just do what they can to put video to their song for youtube. Video Clips are really expensive

Iām with you on Fugazi. Such rewarding recordings to give close listen as well - as in on good headphones or system. Old school art of engineering.
Donāt know if youāve heard this, but interesting: the recordings they did with Albini for Killtaker before they scratched them and started again. A couple of compositional differences, strangely the overall sound isnāt hugely different:

Damn you @tinhillterror Iām going to be listening to Fugazi for the next month now! Only The Beatles, Ween, and Fugazi send me on listening jags like that.
