CROWN OF THORNZ - Train Yard Blues 1995 [FULL EP]

[@x518BEATDOWNx]

This EP/7" completely changed my life. One of the best records of all time, and never gets old. A sound that is 100% their own and can never be duplicated... Thank you.

[@MaximusWolfe]

lol

[@nicolasbeaudry6158]

110 % true

[@daciahensley8423]

One of the rawest, emotionally brutal albums ever made! I still listen to this all the time 💯💜💯⚫️🔵

Kudos dude, hope you still are. Bench pressing to it as we speak, little 3 min rest here and was curious to see what others were saying about this album. Hope you’re doing good my friend.

[@jessvolina6007]

I always played in metal bands, heavier shit like death metal but living in north Jersey close to NYC I always had a ton of respect and love for the NYHC guys and even the "real" punks. COT was one of the bands that had NYC moshing again in the 90's NYHC resurgence. This is a great EP. I prefer these songs over the original recordings. Danny's vocals are just much heavier here than on Mentally Vexed.

[@postlex]

Jess Volina | This is older than Mentally Vexed.

[@MaximusWolfe]

I always thought they were terrible. I know what you mean about NYHC in general though.

[@Lordestroyer]

Still here in 2024!

[@denaeads1369]

I could play this entire album on my guitar in the mid 90s.

[@marcomarfella1643]

love this h.c

[@louidivine3140]

I love the grafitti element in New York Hardcore. Im a writer myself so it makes me happy for more than the Hip-Hop heads to show their love for writing

[@kevinbecerson1546]

Some how I still remember the lyrics.

[@starrchris1736]

Love Danny s. Vocals here ,this ep was so different , back in the day , musically to Ny Hardcore in this Time

[@anthonysbarat]

One of my favorite albums. A bit different sound than alot of NYHC at the time, legendarily wild shows....and, of course, JUGGERNAUT!

[@anthonysbarat]

Awesome things about this album besides the music: Style Wars sound bites before a few tracks, and the documentary from the 80's about hardcore and CBGBs on sundays being "thrash day"...LoL...I remember seeing that shit on tv back in 87 or so.

[@raymondt.1880]

great ep. and seen them with BIOHAZARD IN BROOKYLN NY. DURING THIS RELEASE GREAT SHOW AND I FORGOT SHEER TERROR WAS OPENING UP FOR BIOHAZARD.

[@lechanneldemysterieuxmante1807]

Those are great lineups! Pretty envious, Saw Stompbox open for Biohazard Biohazard opened for Sepultura then Pantera Urban Discipline era Biohazard were BEASTS, truly great.

[@nicolasbeaudry6158]

Funny cause sheer terror lost a good record deal because of biohazard ...the guys who signed bio was suppose to sign sheer terror and a big cluster f. Happened and sheer were not too fond of ☣....

[@ricklindberg4228]

Sheer Terror is miles ahead of Boihazard. Heavier and more original. Evanhazard is one of the worst hardcore singers ever and his band is one of the most overrated.

[@johncuccia8207]

Tight!!!!! 💪

[@krisispunx]

thanks for uploading!!!

[@MyMiserableLife]

it took me forever to get into these guys, i do love Skarhead though, but as time goes on i see how orginal they are and such a Ny feel to it, and though some books like american hardcore and the creeps at MRR deny Ny, just look at the rest of the world, the kids are as honest as it gets and only critics that matter and Ny is the most copied ( with love and respect) scene.

[@CriticalPedagogy]

TMT81 yup! MRR are wack in their conception of HC.

[@MaximusWolfe]

Crown of Thornz was weak as fuck, dude. Skarhead was actually worse. Danny’s rap albums make psychopathic and sub noize rappers seem like company flow or Wu Tang. Impossibly awful.

[@MyMiserableLife]

@@MaximusWolfe this is your atleast 3rd hate comment on a skarhead or COT video . So much directed venom for no reason isn't healthy .

[@MaximusWolfe]

@@MyMiserableLife Just being forthcoming. Gotta set the record straight lest these young bucks get lost along the path. Many great HC bands from NY. This ain’t one of them.

[@MyMiserableLife]

@@MaximusWolfe uhhh. I'm not huge on either but crown of thornz are considered great by legit people. " train yard blues " is Tom from Indecision's all time favorite or one of. Indecision speaking of might be my favorite " nyhc " band....CR is the best band to come from NY for my tastes , well, they re my favorite band, they aren't seen as " nyhc " , the way killing time is. I like Reagan Youth, Breakdown, Sheer Terror, AF of course, born against ,merauder, citizens arrest buyout society lol,why not. Cro mags,. Honestly, I'll take the early casualties shit over most nyhc stuff

[@dariofernando5572]

The correct order of the songs: 1 juggernaut 2 head check 3 mental masquerade 4 crown of thornz 5 feelings

[@guillaumegrosdidier1745]

No, not on this version.

[@ricklindberg4228]

Classic

[@matijadjumic]

Killer EP. Can someone write the lyrics for Head Check, Mental Masquerade and Feelings?

[@louidivine3140]

You can't hear these lyrics?

[@krisispunx]

any chance of uploading mentally vexed album?

[@ImActually66YearsOld]

the audio isn't in the right order

[@soreuno8817]

for real mega buzzkill

[@lechanneldemysterieuxmante1807]

It really hurts the listening experience. When I first got the EP the “Skinhead thrash day” news report was such a great way to start. The fact that it goes into an incredibly thick and slow set of riffs before Ezec goes nuts on Juggernaut just adds to the power, it is a cohesive experience. This way, it is a collection of really great NYHC, but it doesn’t feel cohesive.

[@MaximusWolfe]

It sucks in the correct order too.

[@MaximusWolfe]

All of ezacs bands were putrid. His rap albums are actually worse, if that’s possible.

[@RUMMAGEBIN]

Why you here than?
