New York City Hardcore – The Way it was

After the British Oi!-movement in the early eighties the New York City Hardcore-explosion perhaps was the last true youth-subculture which (in the beginning) couldn't be controlled by the record-industry. Bands like AGNOSTIC FRONT, CAUSE FOR ALARM, KRAUT, NIHILISTICS, THE MOB, THE ABUSED or WARZONE played music from the street for the street ...

The volume offers detailed band-histories, complete discographies (LP/CD) and an introduction into the historically most important LP-compilations and numerous of interviews with personalities from this scene, like Ernie Parada (among others TOKEN ENTRY), Ray Cappo (among others YOUTH OF TODAY), Lou Koller (SICK OF IT ALL), Keith Burckhardt (CAUSE FOR ALARM) or Tony Brummel (Victory Records).
