I want to share some of my favorite bands and ask questions to people who I looked up to growing up involved in the hardcore scene in Detroit. I thought it would be interesting to share some of my experiences and hear stories from people ranging from band members to show promoters and zine creators. Even as far as photographers and bartenders. I want to understand how we all ended up in the same rooms, and be fortunate enough to share the same culture with a small group of people across the globe. Hardcore means the world to a lot of people but some have moved on to a more routine lifestyle. That being said, my mission is to shake up the memories that a lot of us have and reinvigorate the hardcore scene since the pandemic has taken away what we love for so long now. We all take away certain things and share a common set of values and I think that is also important to recognize. Without hardcore, I would not be who I am today and so many people can agree. Lucky for us, we can have these conversations and preserve and pass on what we love. I hope you enjoy it as much as I like creating it. Check out the Instagram @terrorzonepodcast for a lot of the info and when new podcasts will be released. Also any suggestions or feedback is welcome and appreciated . Thank you for checking it out!

Been a long time coming getting Jeremy on the podcast! He's been around for quite a while and used to front a band called Fight it Out. Moral Pollution is filled with talented musicians that have been in many Michigan hardcore bands. I can't list them here because there is a contest where if you can name 7 of the bands first you'll get a free pair of tickets to the black xmas show Dec 30th.

Absolute fun episode to do with the NJHC giant, James STIKMAN of Fury of Five. At this point, if you're in to hardcore and you dont know who FOF is, you might as well turn around and leave. Jokes aside, they are heavy as fuck and bring their own style to hardcore that is untouchable and irreplaceable. One of a kind, and very unique in my opinion,
Check em out this Weekend in the Midwest.
Friday in Detroit 11/3 at The Sanctuary
Saturday in Chicago 11/4 at The Cobra Lounge
Sunday in Cleveland 11/5 at No Class.

This is a bit different of an episode. I love the idea of having the whole band on to introduce them and we get to hear a small portion of their history in Detroit and how this amalgamation of Cold as Life came to fruition.
Ramona (Black Iris Booking) has been booking shows in Detroit and all over the place for over 2 decades at this point. She has a looong resume of top tier bands today that were just getting their foot in the door when she was their agent. She's done so much over the years and because it's not on stage or the internet, promoter most of the time do not get the credit they deserve.
Also big shoutouts to Jimmy and Curtis from The Crofoot and Edgemen printing. aka Tied Down boys. Also, all the bands involved get mad love for representing and celebrating with us in Detroit!
I hope you guys enjoy this episode and get to know the band a little bit before we're tearing each others heads off next Saturday!! Enjoy
