HardLore: The Origin of Twitching Tongues (With Taylor Young)

Colin and Bo are joined by first ever 3-time guest Taylor Young to celebrate the return of Twitching Tongues and the very special double LP re-release of their debut album Sleep Therapy via Closed Casket Activities.
Recorded when Colin and Taylor were 18 and 22, and taking two years to be released, they talk about the pains of outgrowing their first album before most people ever heard it, leaving behind a complicated legacy and creating resentment towards the songs.
Now with the benefit of hindsight, they celebrate the album, and the impact it made on people early in their journeys through hardcore music.
They're back, baby.

Sleep Therapy (Taylor’s Version)

[@ultrawolflord8495]

This made me spit out my apple juice

[@srylildeath]

LMAO

[@wuztron]

Dead

[@joebreakerx]

Colin wearing a shirt with sleeves is enough to let you know that this is a special episode/occasion. Might as well be wearing a tux

[@alexhunter2128]

“Let me like what I like” “I won’t” Lmao

[@gregbaffuto9786]

Dying at sending a mosh proxy 😂

[@brandongeiger]

Every Thursday I get fuck all done at work because of this podcast, thank you 🙏🏻

[@heartgodmedia]

There needs to be a ILTINL era pod follow up with Taylor as Well. This was the best

[@js6527]

Need an ep like this for the entire TT discog tbh.

[@polstokspringer69]

I hope they remaster ILTINL in some kind of way. I love that album sooo much but the vinyl release sounds like it's playing from laptop speakers while I have a very decent set-up.

[@jbasti227]

@@polstokspringer69Well do I have some news for you

[@GoroStern]

34:00-34:44 so glad they left this in hahaha Also, McDonald’s just announced the Big Mac dipping sauce the same day this episode dropped. Coincidence? I think not.

[@lord_bev_4005]

0:28:00 What’s up Young Bro’s! I think I was there for this gang vocal session? I remember Nate doing some vocals, Jacob doing vocals, Collin’s part, and gangvocals all being done that night but I think it was for multiple songs from different bands on the split. If memory serves right, when I watched Collin sing that night it wasn’t the first time I heard him as I feel like I had the TT demo already…but also could have been sent an early version before hand. Vivid memories of Collin passing out the demo CDR (which I still have 😂) outside of McWorld over on LaBrea&Adams. RobBev🤙🏼

[@jorgealexphoto]

Twitching T sounds like music that should of been in The Crow soundtrack.

[@dmanrok98]

Twitching Youngs

[@CrookedTooth616]

I could’ve listened to an additional hour of this conversation. Loved every minute of it! 🤘🏼

[@Hunter-si5bg]

Was a smooth episode, always listen in while I work from home

[@matthewhamill6199]

Taylor giving props to Blade Of The Immortal was sick, outstanding series, both manga & anime.

[@the_real_tay_loud2072]

I feel like if Taylor likes something it’s gotta be cool except for Primus…

[@__jush]

12:48 the voiced up palm mutes dawg im crying 😂😂😂😂

[@smasher1devourer000]

Still got my ST green copy/1st press. Happy to order Taylor’s version… happy TT’s “hardlore “ has only grown & getting its due. Welcome back

[@jbasti227]

Bo getting into Dr Stone is awesome. I enjoy anime but don’t follow it too heavily and Dr Stone has been one of my favorites of the past few years.

[@joshhaslett1696]

I’m here to mosh for my boy who can’t make it, Colin sent me. Classic.

[@Squeeblez]

I’ve been spoiled with the 2 hour and 40 min episodes 😭

[@JackOwensNewTeeth]

Loving the "Sleep Therapy Redux" by the way, please more re-issues.

[@DrTabarnak]

Need to start quizzing Colin on dates. Like a game show.

[@TeethChewer]

Seeing as how much i love TT and every other band colin and tayor have been in. This has been one of my fav episodes for sure. That tour with the bogg that Deadbody has coming up should be sick.

[@plumbunrecords518]

Also respect on the no pitch correction. I'd rather hear someone's imperfections , that's what makes them them!

[@zakdavid7476]

gotta bring back the type o sleep therapy design

[@coolmax1625]

Happy Sound and Fury to all those who celebrate, aaanndddd looks like it's double duty for the young bros this year!! ;) can't wait.

[@tylercarman2010]

You guys have made me fall in love with Type O!

[@sambenevento7536]

time for some more limousine ridin’, jet flyin’, kiss stealin’, wheelin and dealin’, hardlore!

[@TheHighestOrderHO]

Dunno what it is but this week’s Manscaped ad got me man.

[@DungeonHunters]

so happy hearing how colin likes Distance Clause still. Song fucking rules

[@Turok1134]

1:30 Damn, Taylor has a mini? I'm sorry to hear that. Ayo, this is the only podcast that I listen to from start to finish. I've only heard/seen like 5 episodes but still.

[@Lukemyway703]

Yo RIP Barry White! He’s pretty much all my parents played in the house growing up. Stone Gon’ is the master killer of R&B music hands down.

I bet you have a lot of siblings…

[@Lukemyway703]

@@the_real_tay_loud2072 lmaooooo just one older brother… that I know of

[@returntostrength]

I’m gonna need one of those tapes from Taylor

[@brendanhorner5727]

I would love if they did this for the rest of the discog, This is real hardlore

[@daniela.15]

This would've been the perfect time for Colin to explain how Twitching Tongues is just like Batman

[@fcaioki7949]

Damn. I had no idea about that Toxicbreed dude.. wtf I had a few interactions with him on the net. Scary sh*t

[@BanonOmus]

I’m offended by the way Collin talks about how shitty his lyrics are being written by an 18 year old…. That’s what makes it GOOOOD. So many bands that stick around lose their lyrical angst over a 10 year stint in hardcore, life starts getting better, teenage angst mellows out and the lyrics get soft. “Why can’t i love, why can’t i care at all, why can’t i cherish anything” “help me before i help myself” “the razors edge can’t grant you the salvation that you seek” sure a lot of the other songs are about heartbreak and women… but godamn that’s a big part of life for people, it’s still relatable all these years later.

[@philanselmosboxers]

I remember downloading sleep therapy from toxicbreed then watching the TIHC set footage felt truly special to see a band with melodic vocals getting that kind of reaction. Definitely trailblazers

[@Parmejohn_]

Same

[@stabyourcat]

Toxicbreed! Damn. I forgot about that blog! So many albums from that site.

[@Rowdygirlshockeyclub]

colin is confirmed my favorite host. future trunks is too hard..

[@ThiccHungDaddy]

Personally always loved the OG recording of sleep therapy! One of my fave albums of all time 🐐

[@Traviiiie]

Why is Disgrace never discussed?

[@GodOvEmptiness]

This was sick. I've been in the soup since Sleep Therapy "leaked" on TB. I know I'm a bastard man and give Colin shit & I'm likely on the list. I love every single record & have multiple copies of Disharmony. Extremely pumped for new TT!

[@BanonOmus]

Who’s the perv that ran TB they are referring to?

[@SamIllsley3]

Bo’s hair is looking good

[@mattthompson891]

this was a really great ep. also, i love black breath

[@the_real_tay_loud2072]

This a big one boys. WE ALL KNEW IT WAS CUMMIN🙌 young bros with Bo FTW🔥🔥🔥

That mention of rouroni kenshin tho! That's one of my favorite Animes!

[@raabtim]

colin- I am trying to understand your take on melodic hardcore. many of the bands I would put in that category most definitely have pits. counterparts, shai hulud, comeback kid etc. misery signals' of malice and the magnum heart, for example, is the master killer of melodic hardcore IMO and is also extremely heavy. hope to hear more on the subject. also I missed the last whatnot but I want a hardlore shirt so bad. xo

[@the_real_tay_loud2072]

Those are all legendary bands at this point and I’d be really interested in hearing more on this as well as they all have great mosh parts. I remember seeing Misery Signals multiple times around the time OMAMH came out and people moshed hard through every song. Same can be said about HH

[@geraldbayley5781]

See people think hardcore is jocks and it’s really nerds. So rad.

[@delcogoonquad]

Quilter 802 is the Master Killer of small form factor bass amplification.

im so mad i still havent seen twitching tongues live since ive been living in korea for most of their touring cycles. But this video was nice to really learn about them and appreciate all the merch ive picked up from them through resellers. their merch always made me check them out since their merch goes hard. and always again colin your words of never giving up on your band make me push harder for my work im Putting into my merch brand. Just keep grindin matt lol
