@syscband
week on HardLore, as we’re joined by vocalist Connie Sgarbossa (
@camuslovechild
) in today’s very special in-person, instant classic episode.
Nearly 2 hours of a truly inspiring and relatable voyage of trailblazing, non-compromising self-discovery.
A band with every reason to become more accessible choosing to not compromise and evolve into something more extreme… That’s what it’s all about.
Congrats
@knockedloose
on your best record yet and what is sure to be a landmark for the next generation of hardcore/metal listeners
Rest in peace to our beloved friend Cayle Sain. You've heard more stories about him on HardLore than anyone. One of the funniest people to ever live, we will miss him and keep his memory alive.
We will be canceling our upcoming our awards show and taking the next few weeks off.
Rest in peace to Eddie Sutton, AKA Eddie Leeway.
A fearless, game changing frontman... Eddie's presence and voice altered the course of hardcore music for the better forever. There will never be another like him.
"When will you realize, Leeway rocks!"
Our beloved Cayle Sain, drummer of Twitching Tongues, Downpresser, Mizery, Shakewell and many more, has passed away suddenly and tragically at the age of 31.
We were lucky enough to have convinced him to join us for a short interview in December of last year.
RIP The Original Pit Studio
Last week, Taylor Young (God’s Hate, Twitching Tongues) & his wife Kylla were unexpectedly given 60-days notice to vacate their home/studio of 17 years.
This cause means a lot to both of us, please share and donate if you can:
Transitioning is a personal journey for every trans person.
We heard all about Connie (

) of

’s inspiring perspective. Despite a sickening rise in transphobia in music, there are also thankfully more people and resources to help than ever.

So much more goes into selling merch than a person handing you a shirt.
They’re the first ones in and the last ones out, and since merch IS the primary way most bands make money, their performance determines YOUR profit.
If you want their tips, do the job yourself.
All the love in the world to Year of the Knife right now, they need it. Sincerely one of the best and most supportive groups of people in the world. We’re ready to help y’all however necessary

As unfortunate as it is, I think this whole situation with
@hardlorepod
illustrates why it is important for people and bands with platforms to elevate trans voices/members of the scene. It’s easy to get complacent and think the battle is over cause your friends accept trans ppl
