Welcome to the 12th installment of Heart Attack in this busy month of February! Aside from busting my ass at work and also playing music, lately I’m in the mood for heavier and groove-oriented hardcore. Back in my junior high school, I remember this one time when I strolled around local tape store and came across Madball “Look My Way”, I think it was released by roadrunner. On the first listen, I was completely floored and stunned by how much groove and intensity that Madball brought to the table. Since that day, I began discovering bands like Biohazard, Dog Eat Dog, Life of Agony and such…which eventually leads to a more contemporary bands like Terror, No Warning up until recent band like Turnstile (nonstop feeling is crazy good!). You know, one thing about hardcore, it’s sort of like hit or miss, when you do things right they will come out really dope, otherwise all you get is a pool of generic hardcore bands that try to sound heavy yet failing miserably. Enclosed are some of the songs that has been stuck in my ears, these songs really kick off so much memories of hanging out with friends, going into their practice space and simply loving hardcore. Last but not least, enjoy!
