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!

Yes, you read that right! Finally, the one and only Scott Vogel. Everyone knows the name and what he's about. Even though hardcore guys are easy going and down to earth, this is obviously a big one.
I am happy he took the time out of his first day on the road promoting his new album with Terror called Pain into Power. We squeezed a lot in during the 40 minutes we had. He is a chill ass dude and so happy they are back on the road, doing what they do best! Check out their new album. It's streaming eveywhere, and you can buy a bunch of new cool ass merch!

This episode was with my long time friend Robbie. He owns a pizza restaurant in Las Vegas called Guerilla Pizza and he's killing it! I met him from mutual friends at hardcore shows of course. He has a fascinating story about how he became a successful entrepreneur in the pizza industry and I'm glad I was able to spend sometime with him on his short and busy trip back to Michigan for the Easter holiday and his Birthday. We barely even covered hardcore if at all to be honest.
Obviously if you are or will be in the Las Vegas area, you need to check out his spot! It is inside the Hard Hat Lounge right outside of the Las Vegas strip. Best Detroit Style out there!

I have had Martin on my list of people to have a conversation with ever since I started writing things down well over a year ago preparing for this adventure. I am glad to finally sit and just talk some shit with him about his past bands and obciously what it's like being in a few of the biggest hardcore bands today.
It takes a lot of time and effort to be touring and practically playing full time with all of the bands he's in. I don't think he goes overlooked as an artist but I still don't know if he gets all the credit that he fully deserves. I'm proud to have talked with him and it's an honor to be able to take time and get to talk to the people that have been a part of my life for the past 17+ years.
Please give it a listen and share if you have the time!

Retribution Bandcamp for those who want check out or remember Retributionhttps://losttimerecords.bandcamp.com/album/consumed
The title says it all! If you remember Retribution or have been to any Detroit Hardcore show in the past 22 years or so, you have bumped in to him or have for sure moshed next to him!
Kenny is the nicest dude and good to anyone he comes across. AS FAR AS I KNOW! He could be hiding a grumpy old man side to him but I highly doubt it! Listen to this podcast see for yourself! Kenny and I talked about doing a sort of round table discussion with other people in the scene, which I think would be awesome. He knows everyone and has plenty to say and I am looking forward to sitting with him in the future! Thanks for listening and please share!

This is a big one boys and girls! Theres some people in the hardcore and metal scene that have rose above everyone else. Frank has been in plenty of staple hardcore bands the past 3+ decades and has earned his stripes. He is now the rhythm guitarist in the infamous Hatebreed! Crazy to think but it was interesting to learn how he ended up playing for them. Great stories and fun times were talked about! I loved chatting with him about everything. Also he has his own hot sauce but is currently out. You can also support him by going to his big cartel and checking out his line of guitar picks! Catch Hatebreed on tour this summer all over the place!

This one was a long time in the making! If you know Jim or Justin you know this was a comeplete and amazing fun time it was. Unfortunately to other circumstances the other members were not able to join in on the nonsense. We talked quite a bit about the evolution of the band and just all around partying and stories from the boys.
I'm not gonna lie, things got pretty toasty towards the end but to be honest, these are the most fun podscasts to do. Let loose and get silly! The only thing I ask is that you check out the new PT album at the link above and come and support them when they play shows! These veterans will rip your tits off and drink beer out of em!

Was once on Eulogy records and they are putting out their 4th album on March 4th 2022. You can pre order it on Upstate Records and also hear one of the new songs on Upstates bandcamp up above.
Thank you to all who have followed along over the past year and that has supported and shared! I look forward to doing more and spending time with people who love this shit as much as we do!!!!
