this band from PA, Common Enemy, it's awesome. Really fast, skater hardcore stuff.

Makes me wonder, is hardcore only really fucking gay in New England, NY and NJ?

Don't forget Orange County. Home of masters of "gay hardcore" such as Atreyu and Avenged Sevenfold.

ya, west coast hardcore makes me wanna kill myself, fuck throwdown and atreyu and all those fucks

i like new england and nj hardcore. california, on the other hand, i have no comment

I have no idea who those 'gay hardcore' bands are, but the stuff around here is retarded.

you don't like any blood for blood, colin of arabia etc..?

Blood for Blood has some okay stuff, I like what I've heard of Colin of Arabia. You're Fired and Out Cold are good. I am talking about the majority of bands though.

i understand. it seems like you hate a lot of the metal core that is passed off as hardcore though. there are good real hardcore bands like righteous jams, colin, blood for blood out there. they are just overshadowed by the mass explosion of metal core and chugga chugga moshcore

righteous jams is good live, fun and full of energy, but I've never heard them on cd.

i just bought the cd yesterday. i was hoping the vocals would be a little more high pitched, but i still like it. however, they are better live.

I should check some of those bands out.

righteous jams, mental and wrongside are all pretty much the same bands (member wise). im gonna look for common enemy on hxcmp3 and see what they're like.

http://www.commonenemy2000.com I think thats their site

they're not bad. a little too punk for my taste

The punk edge is what sold me.

try 'another day' by cutthroat. Most people who like Colin of Arabia like Cut Throat.

Man.. and I thought that NC was gay before...

Well, and then there's that.

fuck hardcore, listen to pink steel.

Sounds like a band I would like. I like oldschool punky/hardcore a lot.
