AT 45 I STILL LISTEN TO THIS BAND.... GREAT BAND

[@MikeA817]

idgaf what anyone says, this is by far one of THE best breakdowns in all of hardcore music history

[@xeverettx2564]

The whole song is a hardcore anthem!!! Maybe it’s where I’m from I don’t know, but STRIFE is sickenly underrated!!! Just fast and, two step, and chug all perfect amounts and not overdone. For a hardcore band they put so much thought and structure into their songs. Not just ad a two step riff because it needs a two step part but the actual riff itself is great catchy, memorable, well written! I seriously feel like I don’t hear enough about them and the impact they had in the late 90’s through the 2,000’s!! Tell me if I’m way off here or if anyone else agrees. My highschool years were me and my buddies cruising around in my 89 Cadillac cranking hardcore. And when we got near sidewalks where people were hanging out talking and there were hot girls or other punks this song immediately got played. Loud!!! It was like throwing up a flag saying hey this is us and if you are our people you respond back LOL HAHAHAHAHA! So we always were able to find the other hardcore kids through this amazing anthem of a song and it usually led to more people piling in the Cadillac and heading to a local skate spot or spots for the rest of the day and usually ending up at an all ages show that night hahaha! Hardcore shaped me into the man I am today. Kept me grounded and gave me morals and friends that would last a lifetime!! Sorry for the long comment but it all came rushing back to me!!!

This video used to rotate on Much Music's LOUD Friday night program with George Strombo. Used to tape the videos on VHS so I could listen to the songs as I didn't have high-speed internet where I lived and downloading songs from LimeWire or Kazaa was a nightmare.
