HardLore: A Day with Anthony Anzaldo (CEREMONY)

Colin and Bo explore Los Angeles, California with Anthony Anzaldo of Ceremony, Cold Cave, and new solo project ANTHONY, as Bo gets a tattoo from renowned tattoo artist (who just happens to be Anthony's wife) Heather Bailey.
They thoroughly explore Anthony's journey from attending legendary wrestling events as a Bay Area child, discovering punk/hardcore/straight edge as a freshman in high school, Ceremony's early days into their uniquely ever-evolving discography, nearly 20 years of veganism, and MUCH more.
Please enjoy our newest installment of the "A Day With..." series with this 2+ hour adventure to discover why this modern Bay Area hardcore legend planted his roots in Southern California.
Thank you to Anthony for joining us, Heather for hosting us at Holy Union, and Monty's Good Burger for hosting us.

Thursday is the masterkiller of days because of this podcast

[@jbasti227]

It’s scientifically proven

[@joebreakerx]

The whole style of this episode is incredible. Loving the different spots but no drop in the vibe at all

[@CH-ml4rz]

Agreed! Diff locations was really cool

[@coolmax1625]

watching all of this and Anthony not mentioning the secret Ceremony set at S&F to them at all is so funny to me, such a great episode! One of my favorites in a while.

[@sgtbucksauce9129]

Gotta get Davey Havoc on the pod boys. Make it happen!

[@DaveyNavarro]

Havok, James Hart, & Brandan one day!

[@hannahkozlovic1715]

I gotta say, these hangout in the hometown style videos are probably my favourite format on this show. It’s just such a cool way to add another dimension to the usual podcast questions. Also as a youtube watcher, and usual non-podcast listener, I like the visual stuff

[@Joshholton1985]

Anthony’s summation of why Hardlore got so much traction in its first year is spot on. It is SO FUN to listen to Hardlore!! It’s a “thing”, a weekly event for us. He just said it so beautifully.

[@xksellersx]

Love the travel vlog in person interview style episodes. More like this when it’s possible please!

[@js6527]

Admittedly haven’t had much experience w/ Ceremony but this dude is so fucking cool imma be diving in head first. Incredible episode.

The Set It Straight final show at the Phoenix is still my favorite show I have ever been to.

TUI and Ceremony were my two favorites in high school this hits harder than I thought it would

[@s0urce.ow0]

Same dude. I once saw Ceremony play in some shitty landscaping company warehouse in South Carolina. One of my favorite memories. Such a good time.

[@recordshape2528]

Top 3 episodes right here

[@ezequielcapaceta]

Lowkey Colin and Anthony love each other on a different level, you can see it in their eyes.

[@camoflagueobituaryhat]

Ceremony playing sound and fury with the Crass intro was the best shit ever. "You are the ultimate pornography in your cuntfear, cockfear, manfear, womanfear, unfair, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare! Jesus died for his own sins, not mine!" into Kersed.

[@brianbonilla6913]

The kids trying to jump from the balcony area. Set lives in my brain.

[@Ladude5]

Colin ordering ranch and sizing up Bo @1:29:49 is so god damn funny

[@nickslad3164]

Dude’s hilarious 😂

[@MikeyBeee]

When I was in Product of Waste I tried my hardest to play drums like Jake. When I switched to guitar I knew that I wanted to write and perform like Anthony but that tuning was so different. Trying to learn their gosh darn albums in E Standard was so hard.

[@headglue1155]

product of waste was such a killer band! booked you guys in chattanooga back in the day.

Dude’s uncle was the radio promo king for one of my bands back in the day. What a trip.

Simply beautiful! Best episode to date! Cheers from Houston, TX

[@hxcnoel]

Cool to hear the Resilience shout out. They played some very memorable shows in my city in the 2000s. Fury is one of the few street punk style dudes I knew about who was straight edge, which made me feel like less of an outcast ❌️❎️✖️

[@najman2741]

Hardlore gym episode. Colin’s gotta put the public onto the routine.

[@MK-vr7gy]

Prince stunted on everyone so hard in the guitar gently weeps solo. Super Bowl purple rain solo in the rain is close second.

[@jaykjel150]

So glad These Days got mentioned. Back in like, 02?? Hugely popular on the AFI message board and very likely the first hardcore band I heard.

[@duncanmclean5133]

The ranch tension at the counter was so good.

[@scattaredlight]

This episode just made me love Hardlore even more, it's fun, interesting, chilled... Colin and Bo are so charismatic 🖤

[@tombstm]

That bane have heart tour he discusses- Ceremony, Bane, Have Heart played matinee at the Camden underworld in London in 2007. Really my first proper hardcore show- their set was definitely less busy than the other bands but I genuinely feared for my life- people went OFF. I was blown away by people just stomping around and flying into each other with the lead singer shirtless smashing the mic on his head.

[@yomammary]

That was so fun to watch ❤️

[@punkers1980]

great great episode! love him and love Ceremony!

[@Subiekev]

This the most hardcore shit ever. Tattoos, ceremony, vegan, straight edge, America baby

Ceremony is my favorite band, this is my favorite podcast and this is my favorite episode. Love the boys and I love all my fellow listeners/watchers.

[@lynnpehrson8826]

That turnstile tour line-up was perfect. Truth cult Ekulu Citizen Ceremony Turnstile

[@corycourtney8923]

Awesome stuff. I'm from a similar era and it's crazy to see things evolve.

[@zachbraun4424]

Hammertime mention! Fuck yeah. That split with DuckxHunt is the best damn shit ever.

[@Jordanimal456]

Every episode lately has consistently been the best episode so far.

[@CH-ml4rz]

Great episode!

[@bitterthings6216]

The varying genres of Ceremony is what make the shows. A few years back they opened with Video into the Red C cover. Amazing energy. Everyone happy.

[@momo_brobro]

Woke up this morning in my Ceremony tshirt and out on my Ceremony hoodie, opened KZbin and was pleasantly surprised to find this 🖤 two hours of conversation with Anthony! Big day for us Ceremonyheads out here

[@yomammary]

The sadness I felt when I realized I got too big for my Ceremony shirt hasn't been matched since.

[@WARLIEZ]

Damn nothing beats Hardlore

[@Carlo.WTF416]

Ayo, is Anthony wearing Rick Owens?! Betcha ass I was moshing in Rick during the first hours of Sound & Fury loll

[@moistboy64]

😂 I feel nervous moshing in my $35 merch, cant imagine moshing in Rick

[@johnm5451]

Best episode!

[@seanbruneau6855]

Strangely I played shows with life long tragedy both in the states and in Europe. Crossbearer and Power and the Glory. 2005. What a time to be alive.

Also I was lucky enough in 1999 my best friend who is a senior I was a freshman early we were listening to Judge and Sheer Terror after class, good times! But I remember that AFI/Samhain project, “Son Of Sam”.

Shout out to Anthony clocking me in the face like an anvil at Cave 9 on that HH, Blacklisted tour in Bham 2008 when Swamp Thing covered Absentee Debate by Unbroken and the entire venue erupted during the breakdown.

[@notstokely2323]

The sound of that tattoo gun is soothing

[@TimberGrappler]

As a heavily tattooed old head hardcore guy, attending shows in the early 2000s, she is 100% right about aggressive music in the tattoo shop and clients not sitting as well. I always preferred silence, audiobooks or acoustic music when getting tattooed. Another great episode fellas, I'd like to see more than one episode a week though

[@x93tilinfinityx]

Quality over quantity

[@gregbaffuto4370]

im a NY guy but got early exposure to Ceremony when they played Seattle in 2006 for Champion's last show weekend. the reaction was nuts, biggest pop was probably when they covered California Uber Alles

[@WZRDpreece]

coolest shit ever, big up Colin's tears

[@666thsense]

i remember meeting anthony in 2004 while on tour. it was a house show. i wanna say the show was with life long tragedy and these days and it was in redding, but its all a blur. aside from it being almost 20 years ago and me being super sick. all i remember is anthony before ceremony and joe saucedo before set your goals.

[@jakeballesteros2280]

Bruh there’s a whole Notorious BIG playlist playlist playing in the restaurant 😂

[@EvanxBurke]

Loved a lot of the early ceremony shows with Anthony in fishnets, boots, asking if there were any queers in the audience. I vividly remember those early tours with blacklisted and have heart and feeling a shift in the room. Flat brim, Nike dunk kids not know what to do or how to feel.

[@bjorno.6811]

At 1:12:20 Anthony refers to Leipzig Conne Island, I guess. I remember that tour - it was a dream come to true line up, even from today‘s perspective

The year: 2005. The place: Camp Shelby, MS. The music mindset: There's no possibility that any band is better than System of a Down. 😅 they're still my all time fav. It was a journey from soad, to Green Day, Tool, to Ministry, and then I found hardcore last year. Changed my ufckin 40 year old life. 😂

[@duhlike]

AA is the fucking man. This was amazing. BTW Zoo is undoubtedly their best record. It's my favorite of their records without a doubt.
