WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE 90s HARDCORE ALBUM?


A new poll is going up on Monday morning and I want to hear your thoughts before I compile a list.

What is your favorite hardcore release of the 1990s? Leave your suggestions in the comments.

(ed. note - Each band only gets to have one album represented, so some feelings might get hurt. I'm sorry.)

And while we're on the subject, check out our friend Justin's blog Stuck in the Past, currently featuring the article, "5 Things I Miss About 90s Hardcore", from guest columnist Sergeant D.

  1. I would say my favorite album of the 90's might be Earth Crisis 'Destroy The Machines'. Most likely, it is the most important straightedge album of the entire decade. That album got people involved in a lot of stuff, like straightedge and veganism.

  2. Catharsis, Samsara gets my vote. I'm guessing Unbroken, Life. Love. Regret. will win.

    living with a god complex

  8. Integrity - Those Who Fear Tomorrow

    Ringowrm - The Promise is a close second.

  9. Favorite 7" would have to be Ironside "Fragments Of The Last Judgement"
    But since it's probably better to name full albums for me it's "Those Who Fear Tomorrow" and then probably "Systems Overload" for a close second.

  10. I told trevor when we were talking about this Earth crisis might technically be the winner since it really influenced a shit ton of bands but I would rather listen to For those who fear tomorrow.

  11. I say its a toss up between Destroy the machines and those who fear tomorrow.

  14. Entheogen. Definitely not as key as many of the afore mentioned albums, but my favorite of the 90's. Functioning On Impatience is a close second.
