YOUTUBE - A HARDCORE MUSIC BLOCKBUSTER

Only this one isn't on the verge of bankruptcy.

Lots of old show videos and news clips about Salt Lake Hardcore have been surfacing on YouTube lately and we're pretty stoked on that.

If you've got old videos and few hours to kill, sign up for a YouTube account and throw them up there. We'd all love to see them and I'm sure a lot of other people would, too. So get after it and drop us a line letting us know where we can find them.

Meanwhile here's an Aftermath of a Trainwreck video from 2004.

"THEN HE TURNED AROUND AND DECKED VANILLA ICE IN THE FACE"

Reports on the Vanilla Ice comeback debacle at the Tower Theatre in the late 90s have surfaced on the net. Oh, "straight edge gang members."

YouTube user XSheerXTerrorX - wonder what Bearer would say about those Xs - has posted a ton of other great Salt Lake Hardcore content which we'll be featuring in the near future.

In related news, Vanilla Ice is now a Juggalo. Who'd of seen that comin'?

2004 SKEIFF D' BARGG SET AT DV8 BASEMENT HITS YOUTUBE

A full set from Skeiff D' Bargg has surfaced on YouTube. The show took place in the DV8 Basement back in 2004. If I remember correctly, the other bands playing were Himsa, Death by Stereo and Bleeding Through.

Hard to believe this was six years ago.



Watch the full set here.

SALT LAKE HARDCORE 101: THE STENCH

Renowned for their surfer looks and unique melodic hardcore-rock sound, The Stench kept the city's scene alive through the late '80s.

The band released six albums -- 86's Zigamewa (Raunch), 87's Crazy Moon (Running Records/Cargo), 88's Saltair (Running Records/Cargo), 89's Old Style (Mysophobic), and 90's S/T (Leone Trust) and Four Before (Flatline Records) -- before disbanding in 1993.

Songwriter Terrance D.H. honed his singing skills with The Stench before moving on to front Bad Yodelers, Magstatic, Daisy Grey and various solo endeavors. He continues to release solo music and leads local rock band Danger Hailstorm, while enjoying a successful career as a music engineer at Salt Lake's Counterpoint Studios. His resume includes work with artists ranging from Air Supply to Sum 41.

The Stench reunited in 2007 alongside fellow deceased Salt Lake acts Iceburn and Clear for SLUG Magazine's 18th Anniversary. Slug released a DVD about the reunion show titled, Making A Scene, that can be purchased at numerous local spots and online here.
