Great vid,this was my life in the 80s so many good hardcore ,and punk bands,I saw almost all the band in this vid.I would do it all over again. Sucks to be 46 lol
I wasn't too much different from these kids, hell I even did a hand full of shows with the Cro Mags and Sick of it all back in their early years. I was proud to see shows put on for kids by kids. Today our worst fears have come true and shows are put on by big corporations. Do these corporations have yours or my best interest in mind? No! So avoid them all you can and support local acts, go start a band, put on a show while we still have the right.
Yes!!!!! Thank yoy for saying this. It hasn't quite aged well as its 2024 and we still have the right to rock. Hardcore and metalcore and all the subsequent genres are seeing a resurgence!!! The world is sick of hip nation and all the bullshit. I love hip hop and rap music. But the fact that that became the dominant sound and for a long time the only genre that my generation wanted to hear..things have gotten dicey!!!! I am a proud New York Hard Core recording artist and lemme tell you. The scene is strong and this shit is gonna be bigger and better every year. 🤘🤘🖤🖤
Keli Lalita Dasi I'm 42 and it feels like last month I was going to these shows and being young and not giving two fucks about anything. Miss these days but have the memories and three kids to get down with this eventually 😎😉
I also had this on VHS, Smash Records in Georgetown, DC. So many memories, saw all these bands live when they came to DC. Glad to see some of these guys still around putting it down HARDCORE will never die, true a lot of these guys weren't in it for the $$, just music from the heart.
Hey, thank you for being one of those that offer us a forum to voice our opinions and thoughts. Without people like you, there would be no us. So I must thank you in return.
All these bands were on fire at this moment in time! AF especially we’re just on another level you knew even back then they were and always would be something special
I watched this so many times in the early 90's. I would love to see the hours of raw footage, both live & interview, that didn't make the final cut for this video.
ive seen sick of it all more than any other band. in the 80s and 90s they toured with everybody.saw them opening for dri,biohazard,agnostic fron,the exploited,warzone,fuckin body count.i dont even know how many times ive seen them. but they were always fukn badass
Im 44 . I got into metal with Black Sabbath as a kid when I was 8 , then Motorhead at 9 , then Minor Threat at 10 or 12 and i was off to the races !!!!! I hung out with punks and skins and all in between as a kid ! But I found my own place through hardcore music . Terror is a band I dig off the top of my head now days . Stick tight !
what is all this bring back talk on people´s cultures fucking weird as fuck people still identify with their cultures now why is this on numerous videos of different cultures we grew up in around
Tim Williams was the best sounding hardcore singer in this scene imo. Regardless of drug taking or not. It's not my business. He sounds good. That's all I care about.
I was at this show. I feel like the violence at shows really took hold when the breakdowns were sort of a call to be violent rather than the message of HC. the knuckleheads just started showing up for the beatdowns in the breaks.
The 80s nyhc saved my life. No sell out here 47 still listen still respect! Miss it . Warzone ny hoods youth of today minnor threat John Jospeh rat bones stickman.token entry cryptic slaughter jello hey we won
I'm both a fan of metal and hardcore and you're right,it shouldn't be fancy. Simple metal riffs can work but keep it simple, heavy and aggressive, that's hardcore@@bleakforecast9906
Yes, we do play bigger shows. Keen observation, Benjamin. Much like we do with OFF! and previously with Circle Jerks. My point, however, was to go support local acts whenever possible. I stand by the statement that these big corporations do not have yours or my best interest in mind. If I was 100% in charge of booking, we would probably never leave California but once or twice a year.
You have this need to constantly drop your bands name, and how long you have been around. Many other folks have mentioned this as well....to the point where its becoming a running gag. Your a dirty old hippy my friend.. skull fucking the fruits of your Youth.
Props to you Keith from North Alabama. Shows by kids for kids is alive and well, for the most part anyway. The kids from teen to us in our thirties on up are working hard to play, for free lots of times. One thing that keeps it alive where I live are you guys from the beginning that never lost it by selling out to the corporate rock machine. Living in Cali I could see a show weekly; shaking your hand was a bonus.
keith morris i tip my hat to you from the uk the american bands walked like they talked it unlike the clash who singed to cbs it deafeats the very messsage they put out there this attitude of being against the system then they sign with the vey thing they are suppose to be against.this is why i admire the american punk bands of the early eighties i felt they meant it where bands from my own country didnt.
Dont feed his ego...trust me, hes not the nice American stud you think he is. He hits women. Addiction to meth at 65 years old. He steals from neighbors and he is an all around peice of shit. Could give a fuck how long someones been around.. .if they are a peice of shit...they are a peice of shit
I go to every show I can when bands I like are in a 100 mile driving radius because you never know when this might be their last tour. They killed off C.B.G.B.'s, and all our other local promoter/DIY venues in the NYC area so what do we have here? Irving Plaza, Grammercy, big venues, big business, big corporations. But they book the bands I want to see and support.
cool to know hardcore history of hardcore people older then me even I'm 38 now respect for people who put this movie to you tube ,making chance for us to see culture which make big influence on my music views and life style views in my 90's younghood haha but they started this shit 10 years earlier
I love Metal, punk, crossover etc etc ... but what I always loved about HC was that people didn't fake it... people just looked like average working class ....
@@The_Other_Ghost I’m a huge fan of Parris not only for his music which was ahead of it’s time but his visual work.. but your right John Joseph.. Roger Miret.. STIGMA!! all nice dudes in person
I wouldn't doubt at the time SOIA shows had more people at them than a slayer show, I remember reading and a friend saying that during the 90s alot of thrash stuff dropped off, i mean everything after Seasons in the Abyss sucked.
@@ackack2560 that's a bull face lie! SOIA wouldn't never draw more people than slayer on any show, festival, open air or anything. I like SOIA don't get me wrong, but hard-core in the 90s was dead, that's why the bands starting doing crossover, to attract the thrashers to their shows.

As teenagers growing up in Central Indiana, we watched this VHS RELIGIOUSLY. It was a window into a scene we worshipped. Thanks for posting this!
Hardcore until i die! Since the late 80's the Hardcore Bands are still going Strong!!!
Pete and Lou much respect, met you guys at the Citedal in DC when you played with Gut Instinct from Bmore, you all supported the local MD & DC SCENE.
Geez, they all look like babies and I distinctly remember them all, at the time, looking so much older than me.

Big ups to Roger for showing love to Latinos🇸🇻🤘
well he is Cubano
Love the VHS FBI warning in the beginning :)
AWESOME. These bands had such an intense stage presence. Harder to find bands with that kind of aura nowadays.
this never gets old. :) even if we do
Keli Lalita Dasi I'm 42 and it feels like last month I was going to these shows and being young and not giving two fucks about anything. Miss these days but have the memories and three kids to get down with this eventually 😎😉
Used to own this on VHS. So sick, watched it so many times. NYHC was the bizz.
still is black n blue come thru next time
WAS?
do you know if the band playing at 21:40 is Sick of it all? Im familiar with them but Ive never seen what they look like in concert.
@@eldiablo3794 Yup, that's definitely Sick Of It All.
I also had this on VHS, Smash Records in Georgetown, DC. So many memories, saw all these bands live when they came to DC. Glad to see some of these guys still around putting it down HARDCORE will never die, true a lot of these guys weren't in it for the $$, just music from the heart.
Smash! SOIA at capitol ballroom was the first show I went to.
don't forget the struggle, don't forget the streets
Agnostic Front: Victim in Pain album 🔥🔥most influential pioneer hardcore punk ever!
Saw Sick Of It All twice in my hometown - Leeds. Raised the roof both times.
Hey, thank you for being one of those that offer us a forum to voice our opinions and thoughts. Without people like you, there would be no us. So I must thank you in return.
All these bands were on fire at this moment in time! AF especially we’re just on another level you knew even back then they were and always would be something special
its Keith Morris! Respect the legend! Much inspiration!
I watched this so many times in the early 90's. I would love to see the hours of raw footage, both live & interview, that didn't make the final cut for this video.
I don't think that's Armand on drums with SOIA.

My band opened for Sick of it All and Biohazard in SoFl. 1992. Great times!
Hardcore Pride!
Sick Of It All king of kings

I’d love to bring this back I feel like a reject in my small washed up town I need to find other ppl who feel like me and make music
I'm in the same boat man. Got kicked out of my scene in Oregon and I'm in a small town in the south with almost no like minded people.
what is all this bring back talk on people´s cultures fucking weird as fuck people still identify with their cultures now why is this on numerous videos of different cultures we grew up in around
@@socialinsect5073 yeah keep that anime far away
One of the best HC show I've seen on video (VHS)
If I was in it for the money, I'd be playing with Greg Ginn.
Lyrics are what attracted me to hardcore
Pretty much the same thing here. I was into metal first and still dig it, extreme metal,but really felt the HC lyrics
I have he same sweater jimmy gestapo is wearing. Most complimented piece of clothing I own
me too ! and yes it is ! thats so fucking funny to see your comment . ha!
on my bucket list 2023: SIck of it all, Agnostic Front Graspop Belgium, Madball Lindau Germany ...Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tim Williams was the best sounding hardcore singer in this scene imo. Regardless of drug taking or not. It's not my business. He sounds good. That's all I care about.
Haha,Roger Mirret with long hair and a hoody of Bad Religion. Sick Of It All still sounds the same after 25 years!!!
i still have this VHS tape. I love how CIV is wearing SILVER Creepers!! probably the best Documentary still to Date!!!
Roger always looks like the coolest guy in hardcore
Damn haven't seen this in years. I'm talking to Roger at this moment while watching this. Damn, to re-live those days......
I bought this on vhs soon after it came out, I wore this thing out.
Record exec in the suit looks just like Michael Bolton from Office Space
Jesus Harley, let Jimmy finish a sentence.
Toured with agnostic front for a week back in mid oughts.... some bad ass dudes. Roger and vinnie were good people.
SICK OF IT ALL THE GREATEST PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET AND THEIR LAST LPS ARE ALL AMAZING
this fills me with pure fucking joy
thanks for posting this!
I was at this show. I feel like the violence at shows really took hold when the breakdowns were sort of a call to be violent rather than the message of HC. the knuckleheads just started showing up for the beatdowns in the breaks.
thank you for this
Matt Henderson guitar god
RIP Dave Stein
The 80s nyhc saved my life.
No sell out here 47 still listen still respect! Miss it . Warzone ny hoods youth of today minnor threat John Jospeh rat bones stickman.token entry cryptic slaughter jello hey we won
SOIA always puts a damn good show
The best to ever do it in my opinion
my neighbors dog sounds like roger miret doing vocals every time it barks
such a good documentary
Can someone please tell me the name of the band playing at 21:38 is that the band, Sick of It All?
Yes it is. The song is What’s Going On.
That fuckin shirt Roger got on is solid fuckin gold truth 😂
Crowd participation, only Hardcore.
bands still try and the cant even come close to the old school riff-age going on here.
That's because they try and be too complicated and fancy. You can't bring an Eddie Van Halen type approach to songwriting into hardcore.
@@bleakforecast9906 I mean it’s possible. Just it becomes crossover at that point right?
I'm both a fan of metal and hardcore and you're right,it shouldn't be fancy. Simple metal riffs can work but keep it simple, heavy and aggressive, that's hardcore@@bleakforecast9906
What a weird lineup of GB. Walter on bass instead of guitar, Sammy drumming, Porcell on guitar. Who is the other guitar player? Is that Alex?
I know Rogers almost 60 now, but he doesn't even remotely look like the same person here.
Nice socks too! 😂😂
i have this VHS tape ha sooo good!!
AF / SLAYER show at the Ritz was insane .....violent night
In Cleveland we had the Spudmonsters!
I think of hardcore as a worldwide movement of outcasts of society. And I love to be a part of it :D
Thnx 4 the upload!!!
I prefer the first wave of NYHC But the second wave is great too
I am sad I missed this when it was happening. This shit is awesome.
well, you know it's gonna be good, when you see tht warning :P
i have this on tape still plays
I still own this VHS!
This documentary fucking kicks ass! Much props on posting this! This gives more insight on the true NYHC scene! Hardcore 4 Life!
Murphy's Law!! CBGB.... miss this!!!

Got to see AF in 92 , with cannibal corpse , obituary , & malevolent creation !!
The spread of this video caused the NYHC movement for young Japanese people
Great documentary...
Suicidal was my first show at 14 i was shitting a brick and i believed bio opened
dont forget Buffalo hardcore,Smokey from Zero Tolerance is on the first H2O record
Harley is a contradiction
I was a little baby on the east side during these times. Would see older Nyhc dudes and think they were the coolest.
GB till the end.
Would love if NRSV and Warzone were included in this video
