...have you not seen the multiple bongs at my house? The oh-so-subtle yet ever present eau du parfum of weed? Yeah. Again, I'm sure it happened. Totally don't remember that.
Yet you don't forget your education? You are putting that before Integrity? Dwid should fight you for that...
Hey, I only have so much room left in my brain, and I paid good money to reserve this space for moldy 12th century politicians. SORRY DWID.

This is me embarassing myself, feel free to throw tomatoes.
Do you wear glasses? I remember selling a ticket to a girl in a SH shirt. I was the scowly looking dude with the neck tattoo and black flannel.
Either way welcome! What are your feelings on Integrity and Clevo Hardcore in general? No pressure, but if you dont say what i want to hear i'll be forced to ostracize you from the scene
I came with a ticket.... But I dooo wear glasses. Real femmy ones with a jewels.. DON'T JUDGE.
How bout you educate me, because I don't think I've dived into that. Kill me.
SWEET. Okay, instead of telling you to listen and like those bands, I'll just give you a list of some of my favorites and let you decide if you like them or not.
Integrity- listen to anything up to and including Seasons in the Size of Days. After that, Aaron Melnick left the band and they did two records, Closure and Integrity 2000. DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE ALBUMS. They are beyond godawful. Their most recent stuff is actually really good, and I'm seriously looking forward to the new full length.
Ringworm- everything this band has done is good, but I'm particularly fond of The Promise, Birth is Pain and Justice Replaced by Revenge.
9 Shocks Terror- only put out a S/T 7" and a full length called Zen and the Art of Kicking Your Ass. Both are excellent.
Gluttons- more recent addition to the pantheon that features the Human Furnace from Ringworm doing guitar/vocals. I only have a 7" demo, but fuck is it good.
Pitboss 2K- Fun. Just...fuck. Fun.
One Life Crew-...do not listen to OLC. Seriously.
These are the big names (even OLC, despite their racist douchebaggery) that pretty much define the sound that is Cleveland hardcore. There are a lot of bands that take influence from them (Withdrawal in Winnipeg, Putrid Brew in Kelowna, Creatures in Cali, actually all of Winnipeg now that I think about it) but we'll get to those later.
Now go listen to those bands. I expect a six page paper on my desk by Wednesday.
So far I've gotten through Intergrity, Ringworm and 9 Shocks. All were really enjoyable. Pretty sure I've heard Ringworms stuff before now that I gave them a good listen. I'll keep working through them but so far it's promising!

I don't recall a female at the door, mind you I did show up late because the friend accompanying me did not want to sit through "a million bands". If anyone was working door remembers a girl pulling out a few pairs of shoes from a purse.. Yeah, I was with her.

To pass time time we went shopping.. Didn't really feel like standing around lookin' cool with boxes of shoes so we stuffed them in her purse. Yeah, she was embarrassed.

True, I think I was mostly whining that I didn't wanna carry them around in the first place and she had SUCH a big bag at her disposal...

Hi everybody, I'm James. I'm from Edmonton and I live in Vancouver. I am vegan and straight edge, and I love hardcore.
Also Willa: what about Confront? They're a really important Clevo band, and probably my favorite. They're Mean Steve's band before OLC, but none of their lyrics are sketchy, and they have an anti-racist song.
