Is this really the guy from 'Rotten to the Core'? Yep, it's really me! I signed in as "Hearing Impaired" yesterday because I couldn't remember my damn login. Plus I figured that was more oldschool(!).

I remember that show. You first turned me on to Napalm Death, 'Missing Link' was the track if I remember correctly. I'm flattered you remember AND used to listen! The highlight of my time on the air was my interview with GG Allin...I got suspended for a month for that one!

Thank you for that. No problem duder, that's why I was there!!! That was the original pressing of "Scum" I used to play on my show, I recently sold it on Ebay 'cause I haven't had a record player in years. Gotta get one again someday.

Your show was on WJUL and followed 'Metallic Mayhem', right? That was one of the time slots I had over the years, yes. My show was more grind/hardcore/punk than Trish's, but there was alot of overlap.

I listened to those both for awhile. I remember it was like 5 hours solid of heavy music, way back when it all mattered. It still matters, but these new jacks don't have any idea how marginalized you were if you were into extreme stuff back then. There's no "hardcore/metal gold card", so I'm not proclaiming superiority or whatever, but don't spout off about how old school you are/were if you had a ready made "scene" for you when you started going to shows. That was my point here..Eric and CSDO were around back then when metal was actually still underground. (You'd get beat up by sportos back then if you wore a studded belt and shit, and now they sell them at the fucking mall!!!!!!!!) I give him/them respect for perservering alone, even though I was never a huge fan (probably because I only liked Nuclear Assault on a lukewarm level, and CDSO are pure NA worship).

You could hear so much new shit there. Voivod, Soundgarden, Faith No more, remember Trish? I was good friends with her, and we both used to mix early Seattle shit into the mix with all the metal and 'core stuff. God damn, stuff like Tad used to fit in nicely between Extreme Noise Terror, the Cro-Mags, Broken Bones, Bolt Thrower, Hallow's Eve, etc. !

She played them all before they were popular. It was our intent to MAKE good bands popular!!!

Come to think of it, I've seen your band too if it was Hearing Impaired and had the demo. NICE! I play in a band called Ichabod now, come on out to a show and I'll try to remember to bring some HI stuff for you (other demo, unreleased, and t-shirts and crap)...
