BLACK VINYL VERSION!
New York City hardcore veterans Madball have set Hardcore Lives as the
title of their forthcoming album. The LP was engineered by Ken Susi (of
Unearth) and mixed/mastered by Zeuss (Hatebreed, Whitechapel). It also
features guest appearances from Scott Vogel (Terror), Toby Morse (H20)
and Candace Puopolo (formerly Kucsulain, Walls of Jericho).<br>
With
a musical legacy dating back over 25 years Frontman Freddy Cricien had
the following to say about Hardcore Lives. “I shouted ‘Hardcore Lives’
on Madball’s first release, Ball Of Destruction, – I was twelve then. It
wasn’t pre planned or written down… it was an ad-lib that I just threw
out there and we kept it! Back then there was no choice really, not the
way we were recording – two track live at Don Fury‘s… NYHC style! I feel
the sentiment behind the expression still holds true today, maybe even
more so. That said, Hardcore Lives at least to us, is not just about a
cool ‘catchphrase’ – it’s about that rebellious spirit that doesn’t give
in… In life, music, whatever. It’s about growing, evolving, and
maintaining your integrity in the process.
