Hardcore punk seems to be a dying breed of music these days. Thankfully, there are still a few bands out there that have started a new hardcore punk flame that will hopefully continue to spread. Street Trash is one of these bands. As you no doubt have already guessed, Street Trash play abrasive, raw hardcore punk to the tenth degree in the vein of bands like Minor Threat, Verbal Abuse, DRI, Bad Brains, and many others.

Hi guys, love your website, it's soo cool http://www.los-angeles-casino.com/lanir/casino-directory-2005.htm l So changing "white" to "right" means they basically think they're superior. That song was not sarcastic at all, actually. It's basically a sumnation of the racial issues going on in D.C. at the time. "Guilty of being white" was a sarcastic title, if you bothered to read the lyrics. So how does Slayer changing "white" to "right" make them a redneck band? If it's good, it's good...regardless of what year it came out in. I ahve to agree with the guy below. I dont like all those bad metalbands that call themselves Hardcore. Hardcore in my opinion is punk. Its not a progress to sound like a bad imitation of 1995s metal bands. (Its also no progress to sound like an 80s styled rough hardcore band, but this is what I for my part like most...though I´m too young to take notice from them when they were brand new). i'm sorry to break it to you, but them slayer guys are just as redneck...and they changed the lyrics to minor threat's "guilty of being white" to "guilty of being RIGHT"...great indeed... It must be a disgrace to a great band like Slayer to have influenced such a shitty, redneck band like Pantera. Some Kind Of Hate are a HARDCORE band NOT a HARDCORE PUNK band...there is...in fact....a huge difference. Slapshot may be the basis of American hardcore, but if they are, they're the reason it's so afiliated with the right wing. Are you an idiot?? Some kind of hate put out an album on Bridge 9...ohh, and ever heard of a band called Slapshot? If they aren't the basis of american hardcore, I don't know who is. When i said hardcore i meant hardcore punk....not "macho bullshit cookie monster growl breakdown chugga chugga hardcore". There is, unless i am missing something, a serious lacking of raw, primal hardcore punk bands around right now. I wouldn't consider anything on Bridge 9 for example (except The Distance and one other who i think are) to be hardcore punk. Their are alot of good up and coming hardcore bands, some of which you can find on Deranged records, Havok, 625, My War records, Prank, etc. I believe when he says 'hardcore punk is a dying breed' he is not referring to the shitty overdone hardcore that exists today. Stupid nu-metal and 80s hair band influences lead to way too many breakdowns and took away the overall passion/fuel that made up the early 80's hardcore punk movement. I find it hard to liken any current 'hardcore' bands to Minor Threat or The Exploited with the exception of maybe a few Streetpunk acts. The singer is totally trying to sound like Jello Biafra. I love drums on the few tracks that I've heard. Definitely channeling the spirit of Minor Threat on this one. I'd say it sounds like Minor Threat with Jello Biafra on the vocals, but there's also a feel for the Descendents in the way that the songs are written. I quite enjoy it. I'd disagree with the "hardcore is a dying breed" type comment. There are so many awesome fucking hardcore bands around today its incredible. It's dying for a reason. |
