(1998.03.31) STEALTH, Live at Le Medley [Montreal, CAN]

STEALTH was a post-BAD BRAINS band featuring bassist Daryl Jenifer with G-Pace on vocals. Very reminiscent of Bad Brains but with a bit more of a Hip-Hop influence. Project didn’t last very long, but did release a few CD EP’s and was featured on the New York’s Hardest 2 compilation. It’s always been a tough hill for the Hip-Hop/Hardcore crossover to climb, as shown in this rare live footage from…

Fugitive, "Blast Furnace" B/W "Standoff"

A fresh pair of sonic burners from Fort Worth, TX thrashers, Fugitive. The first of which, “Blast Furnace”, has a reminiscent mid-tempo Power Trip feel to it and would have fit in perfectly with their early material. Incredible turnaround halfway through the track which highlights the growth in Blake Ibanez’s songwriting, guitar playing, and riffing. The second track, “Standoff”, is much more in…

Hailing from the almighty Texas, Skourge has been around for quite some time now with a number of demos and EP’s under their belt.

Collateral, Demo (2023)

Doing the math on the length of each song gives you a good idea of what you’re in store for. Demo of the year? Quite possibly…
