Grow
2006-09-15 05:15:00 Digging through some old stuff I found a flyer for a Straight Edge band my friends had in high school. The band was called Grow and contained the members Ray (who is currently in Carpenter Ant), Sean and Brian (who is in the photo on the left.) I wasn't part of the Lehigh Valley Hardcore scene when I was younger but they were my friends and they have influenced me to this day. Their demo was to come out in January of 1994, the year we all graduated. The flyer had the lyrics from two of their songs:Disease You're something that I don't need / Why Must you make us bleed / You're something that was in my hear / Never thought we shall part / You should always be aware / Of friends that have cared / These lies you now portrayal / I have failed / This problem shall never be solved / Now I wish I never got involved / This disease caught in my mindConflict As Open as the wind / As free as a cloud / You watch us grow / Knowing we grow wild / Can't grasp our feelings / Can't open our...

Henry Rollins and Fat Mike
2006-07-28 07:38:00 Henry Roll ins is interviewed in the summer 06 issue of Punk Rock Confidential, a magazine put out by Fat Mike . Now I probably wouldn't have bought the magazine had I known that Fat Mike put it out. I used to like the guy, his music was decent, his label rocked and I loved the Rock Against Bush CDs and thought he helped the punk community become a little more involved in politics. Then I read a quote attributed to him about SxE and read some of the lyrics of his songs closer [" the kids who used to live for beer and speed now want their fries and coke"] and just realized that I couldn't listen to a jerk that cares way too much about being drunk and high, even the stuff he says in his magazine just piss me off. To be honest, I don't think I'm better than him, I just can't see his point of view and when he says shit like that it pisses me off, just as much as militant Straight Edge music pisses me off.But I was happy to read a great interview of Henry Rollins in the issue, a s...

I'm Straight Edge
More articles from this author:2006-07-10 22:00:00 I'm Stra ight Edge . And this year I'll be turning the big 3-0. I grew up around skaters and straight edge kids since I was around 10 (most my friends claimed edge when we were around 14) yet I never liked hardcore music growing up and thus never felt the connection they did to the scene and thought I needed to be hardcore to be straight edge. Some of my friends and others from my school broke edge after graduating and when I went to college I drank (recall I never claimed edge, thus I never broke edge.) And to this day I regret ever having that first drink. While in college I also gained an appreciation for music, especially punk and ska. Rancid [...And Out Came the Wolves] being the first punk CD I ever bought drew me into punk like a hyena to a rotting carcas. After school I got into hardcore music and started going to shows more often since I finally had time and that's also when I drank more. I then started realizing that I didn't like being drunk. I looked back onto my years... More About: Straight , TRAI , Straight Edge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
