Same with me in 2001 (9/11 happened at the start of my senior year, Iraq War not long after graduating). Pretty cool to see including the other reply how timeless this is.
The year hardcore punk peaked in this country, and before thrash metal and crossover blew up for good. Lou Barlow of DEEP WOUND said it best, though, that after 1983, most hardcore bands would either fully embrace the metal/crossover sound, or they would turn up the weirdness and experimental aspect and never look back. Guess which route DINOSAUR Jr. took? 👺✨🗡👺
thirty years after being paid by Ian MacKaye, they were still holding on to the cheques because they'd had a verbal agreement that they'd only spend the money to make more music. Ian eventually tracked them down and persuaded them to cash the cheques. i read this in a 2020 Guardian article called "$5 gigs, not $10m deals: the story of US punk label Dischord Records." which is what brought me here.
@Sound It does exist, but a lot of hardcore today, unfortunately enough, can be very highly derivative to the point of imitation. How the hell can anyone reinvent hardcore, y'know?
Not being sarcastic, but cheap high-resolution cameras not being integrated within cheap devices nearly the entire population owns, combined with them being pretty underground would be one reason, though for real I do know there's more than this in existence out there. Here's a sadly pretty low-res upload of an entire show of theirs from the same year if you haven't seen it: ua-cam.com/video/xCvWZS-N3q8/v-deo.html
Any American kid coming up in the Seventies and looking for heavier types of music would naturally gravitate towards the guitar sounds of Ted Nugent. It's sad that Ted's partisan party politics hackery has essentially outshine his guitar playing all these years later.
"you dont see the camera but it's watching you"
Timeless asf
I was in 11th grade in 1983. I'm still listening to Void and Dischord stuff!
I'm in 10th grade and I'm listening to void and dischord stuff

@joshjn Anyone who was still in high school in '83 would be considered a Gen Xer.

Maybe the most insane-sounding band ever.
There are much more insane sounding bands, but yeah, in 83, this kind of raw, unpolished, unleashed hardcore punk was so ahead. Insane energy.
Why is there no earlier footage of Void - at least on UA-cam?

Did you see the size of cell phones in those days?
Uh!
Ted Nugent tank top?
yup
The Nuge was respected by the straight edge kids. This was before we knew what a right wing piece of shit he was, though.
MacKaye was also into Nugent at this point. must have been a thing.
