VIDEO: PosiNumbers 2003
Just found this video of Mental and Dumptruck playing at PosiNumber2k3 thanks to Dobek Ohashi of CrucialxTimes' YouTube Channel. He also uploaded videos of Terror, Down to Nothing and With Honor. Make sure to check those out and head on over to CxT if you've got time to kill. Some solid reads and interesting photos are compiled on there.
VIDEO: WuTang Clan - Drunk Tongue Promo
Hood morning. For those who have slept, the Wu-Tang Clan are back with a new album and they still ain't nothin' to fuck with. Legendary Weapons features 14 all new songs from the Killa Beez [minus GZA and Masta Killa], and plays host to a slew of other notable rappers including, but not limited to, AZ, Sean Price, M.O.P. and Roc Marciano. The album dropped on July 26th, 2011 via E1Music and is available on iTunes and at retailers worldwide.
WU FOREVER
VIDEO: Hail Saviours
This band is always a blast to see live. Louder than Hell, their amps roar as they shred to no end. I managed to catch the latter half of their set at Red7 after One Against Many finished their set at the Broken Neck this past Friday. I snapped a couple of photos in between banging my head, and I even got a quick video, too. [I am stoked on my new phone!]

VIDEO: She Lost Grip
LOSING GRIP played a random house show in North Austin last night, but they were only able to play one song [Nothing to Show] before the cops showed up and gave the owners of the house a warning.
After receiving the warning, the owners proceeded to tell the LG dudes that they needed to either turn down their amps or just stop playing, thus resulting in the quietest rendition of their song, Undone, I have ever heard. This was still too loud for the owners. "Turn down your drums!" They decided to just stop playing, but the crowd, myself included, demanded they at least do their cover of Breakdown's Streetfight, but the owner was not pleased, and in a drunken rage, decided to start verbally assaulting me. Hah. This bitch was ready to fight me, but I'm convinced she just wanted to fuck me. Sexual tension is a motherfucker. So here I make an official act of courtship, Malkia Christine Smith, I cordially invite you to a nice dinner composed of a chicken sandwich and some waffle fries from Chik-Fil-A. If you're a good girl, you might even get a glass of lemonade. Whaddaya say?

VIDEO: Burning Love & APMD
Burning Love and All Pigs Must Die played yesterday's Scion Metal Matinee at the Roxy in LA with Gaza. YouTube user, Trupray posted videos of their sets which can be seen below. If you haven't seen Burning Love live yet, you need to remedy that. ASAP. They tore it up when they opened up for Coliseum last Fall. Unfortunately, I missed them during this year's Chaos in Tejas, but I heard it was great.
VIDEO: New Skate Park in Austin, TX
Peep the new House Park skate spot in Downtown Austin, TX. It's right by the ACC campus on Rio Grande, off of 12th and Lamar. Local skate shop, No Comply, is now in the most prime of real estate with the opening of this new park.

WRAP-UP: Chaos in Tejas [Part 2]
Chaos has swept the city. Austin felt the presence of some of underground music's finest. In its 6th year, Chaos in Tejas has continued to outdo itself in its magnitude. It is now over, and most of the people who traveled to Austin, TX from all parts of the world have already returned home. Only to await the announcement of next year's events which are sure to surpass expectations.
After work on Saturday, I thought I was good on time, so I went home and kicked it for a minute. Then I realized the show at Mohawk started at 7PM, so I bolted out the door headed for downtown. I made it to the venue just after Urban Blight. Shitty. I had been excited about their set. The day before I was talking to my boys from Cutting Losses, and it got brought up that a surprise Step Forward set would be unlikely. We were wrong. "What's up? We're Step Forward." The place went crazy and didn't slow down through the Rival Mob. Raw Life. Their set went hard. Unfortunately, Rampage didn't have as good of a reaction as I thought, but their set was awesome. I attributed it to them playing right before Youth of Today, which is an honor in and of itself.
Finally, the moment everyone had been waiting for: YOUTH OF TODAY. The crowd filled the room. Fists were X'd up and the tension was building. I made my way up front as they took the stage. The crowd took flight from start to finish. There were non-stop stagedives throughout the set. Noble of One Against Many enacted a 3 stagedive minimum for anyone in attendance. He definitely met his quota. Being one of the bigger dudes up front, I was used as a launchpad by most people to get on stage, but I managed to even get one in. I feel bad for whoever I landed on. Oh wait, no I don't. They played most of the hits. A lot of stuff off of Break Down the Walls. They even played Disengage. There were a couple of songs I would've liked 'em to play. They even threw in covers of Minor Threat and 7 Seconds. All in all, one of the best shows I've ever been to.
FLAME STILL BURNS
Unfortunately, I was broke for most of the weekend which resulted in me missing a couple of excellent shows. The one I'm most bummed about was Iron Age's last show at Emo's. Dbag got in and said it was awesome, but I wouldn't know, personally, so here's a video for all those who also missed it:
"RIP! Iron Age is done. Thank you." -Chase Money
The past couple of days had me worn out, so I missed the free day show at Red7 after getting out of work, and I just headed to the Mohawk to catch Fucked Up and Dillinger Four. Fucked Up never disappoints. I've seen 'em many times over the years, and they still put on a great show. I haven't listened to them much after Hidden World, but the newer stuff they played sounded good. They even did a couple of older songs [Police and Baiting the Public]. Damian is always fun to watch. He's just all over the place. He spent most of their set in the crowd giving people hugs and even ended up on the balcony overlooking the stage and jumping in photos. I ran inside and talked NBA with Greg Wilmott while watching the final minutes of Game 3 of the Finals. Fuck the Heat. Found my boy James in the crowd and sang along to Dillinger Four. Their set was a solid mix of old and new. Lots of babes, too. That's always a plus about pop-punk shows: babes. D4 makes their set lively with a mix of humor and high-energy punk ballads. I missed the first 2 songs, but got their just in time to see them play Gainesville, which has to be one of my favorite songs of the past couple of years.
The Black Twilight Circle was having a showcase at Red7, but by this point I was beyond tired. I heard from a few notable heads that the show was real good, despite a weak turnout, but I just had to get some sleep.
With that, Chaos in Tejas was through. Friends headed back home. Locals went back to work. Downtown began to smell better.
Until next year...

WRAP-UP: Chaos in Tejas [Part 1]
Last night was the only night that I had no tickets for any shows, but I still managed to catch Hooded Menace, the Spits (partially), TRAGEDY and Origin of [M].
Got into downtown Austin around 8:30 after getting out of work. Missed Mammoth Grinder's set at Red7, so I spent a lot of the night meeting up with friends who had just gotten into town. Saw friends from Canada and a lot from San Antonio. Donger managed to slime his way into a lot of shows, so I'm jealous of him, but my night still went well. Hooded Menace was so fucking heavy. Excellent. Banged my head with Chase Money and spoke briefly with my boy, Ribz, about a certain piece of Type O Negative merch. Pretty sure I spotted DFJ getting down to the Menace, too.
I caught part of the Spits set before regrouping with D-Bag and heading East to the Broken Neck. Had to wait for him to get out of the Cro-Mags show at Emo's. Unfortunately, I didn't have $30 dollars to spare. Bummed. Listened from outside with some San Antonio homies and Big Country. Just after the Mags covered Bad Brains, I spotted Greg Willmott of Lockin Out fame getting kicked out for fighting, which didn't actually happen. Had a few words with him just before splitting to the Eastside.
CRO-MAGS at Emo's: Can you spot the Dustin?
There were tons of heads out at the Broken Neck by the time we rolled up. Once the joint was packed and all the other shows in DT were through, Origin of [M] did their thing. I was definitely feeling it. Some solid NY style riffs were being laid out. I support just about any Japanese HC bands. After a one song encore, Origin of [M] finished their set and within a few minutes, Tragedy was ready to rip through the crowd. I hadn't seen them since their appearance at Chaos in Tejas 2006, so it was great to finally get to see them again. The crowd was going insane. It was impossible not to be moving. The whole venue was packed, wall-to-wall, with punks from around the world, and they were eating it up. After ripping through a solid set, they called it a night due to technical difficulties [the drummer busted his snare drum.]
After finally making it out of the Broken Neck and saying bye to some friends, DonJuan and I made our way to the Super8, so he could get some of his stuff from the Canadians. Once we finally made it home, it was 5:00 AM. SLEEP.
Today is a new day. See everyone at Unbroken tonight. Make sure you get there early to catch POWER TRIP. Big Freedia at Red7. Ass Everywhere. Double Negative aftershow at the Broken Neck.
LET'S DO THE DAMN THING!

Footage has been released from Tragedy's show this past Saturday at the Barbary in Philadelphia. So excited to finally get to see them again this coming week during CHAOS IN TEJAS! It's been too long.

WRAP-UP: MoshFest - May 21st, 2011
Tyler, TX. It's a dead zone. Don't go there if you have T-Mobile and expect to have reception. Having said that, this show started out as an odd mix of hardcore and "crab"-core, but all of the latter bands dropped, so it ended up being just a solid Texas hardcore show. There were bands representing DFW, Austin, San Antonio and even Longview, TX, which was a pleasant surprise.
This was a sort of homecoming for our guitarist who grew up there and spent most of the 90's playing in bands [Eleventh Hour, 1066, etc] and putting on shows. Needless to say, this was not the Tyler he had left behind.
We rolled into town around 2:30PM and made our way to the venue, which turned out to be the hollowed out shell of a former strip club. Pulling up the show, we were asked to step out of the vehicle by the promoter of the show and handed "VIP" wristbands. Border Patrol tactics is not how you treat VIP's. We were scheduled to play at 5:00PM, but come to find out 5 bands had dropped, the set-times got shifted around.
Being that we didn't need to be there til later, we opted to leave Austin earlier in hopes of catching TRUTH. Due to the schedule changes, we arrived earlier then needed. Burden Me opened up the show, followed by Truth. Now Truth plays pretty straight forward Youth Crew styled hardcore. It's fast, positive and Straight Edge. They could use some fine tuning, but overall did a good job. They're new, so I forgive them. They just need to stick to it, and get their shit on lock. They did cover BOLD, so that scored them major points.
Prior to our set, Seth of Losing Grip asked me to speak to a group of misguided youths in neon clothing who were way too young to be smoking tobacco, so I obliged. After scolding them and pretending to call the cops on them, to which they freaked out, I told them to come watch the next band. They obliged. I think we were the only band they actually saw throughout the entire show. It was a fun set. People seemed into it, including one dude whose dad is younger then both our singer and guitarist.
I was kind of all over the place, so I can't remember which bands I saw, but a group of us did leave for a minute for a pizza buffet break before Losing Grip's set. After a short drive and 20 slices of pizza later, we got to the show and caught the latter half of Humanerror'shttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif set. Unfortunately, we missed End Times, but there was pizza pie in our eyes.
This was advertised as Losing Grip's last show, but I hope they consider doing at least one last show at home. Regardless, it was as solid a set as I've ever seen them play. The riffs were heavy and the mosh was ignorant. I was told after the fact that I smashed one of the dudes from Truth repeatedly in the face. Sorry, bud. Last show or not, I'm glad I was there to see them play.
Unfortunately, we had to dip before Power Trip played, but I heard it was good. I got word of chair mosh. I fully support chair mosh. YouTube user, sleeveywonder888 posted videos of Truth, Cosmic Rite, Black Body, Vaste Burai and Power Trip, so go check those out.
