holy shit!
awesome.

Put those words in all caps and you got my reaction. Greatest news I have seen in a long time as I'd put these guys in the 5 or 7 most important/favorite bands of my life. Was unaware of this reunion but I would do anything to see this live!

Edit: maybe just a one off? http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2 ... reuni.html? Hope not! And that was a killer lineup...Revelation released some classics for sure.

Some Gorilla Biscuits from that festival. Damn, I don't listen to hardcore anymore but watching these clips has me wishing at I had been at this fest.

Damn that is awesome news...now if only Fudge Tunnel would reunite and make me feel even older.

kind of disappointed that there is no Youth of Today footage (yet)


MAAAAAKE A CHANEAYANEAYROWWWWWWW!

can never have too much Walter Schreifels

Holy Shit! AMAZING! Both Quicksand and Into Another reformed Revelations 25 anniversary shows and I missed it! 90's NYC post hardcore at it finest. And here I thought Walter and Tom didn't speak anymore. And though I missed it, I'm glad they played together again even if it was just for one night. I'm hoping Quicksand are the surprise headliner at St. Vitus just announced on 6/18. I know Walter did A run of solo dates there when they opened last year. Pipe Dream I know... but a boy can dream!

Some SOIA for good measure.

YES!!!




WAKE UP AAAAND LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!

I never found Quicksand to be anything like Gorilla Biscuits or any of them other bands. they were way more hip and awesome, fuck that hardcore shit, all sounds the same. go skate somewhere, maybe a girl will see you land that trick.

but maybe Quicksand will reform and write new Audioslave songs.

Yeah, if you want to hear where Helmet and even Tool were copping style and riffs, this is it.

This rules.

quicksand has all that history behind them, see how everyone sings along to the lyrics? I'd never sing along like a girl. maybe grind up against one.

I used to grab up every Revelation record that came out when I was in college. Saw Quicksand, Into Another, Shelter, Orange 9mm and all of those bands whenever they came through.

...and then I grew out of it and have never been able to get back into it.

I couldn't figure out why. I thought that all the bands had ugly guitar tones(which is true to a degree) and maybe that was the reason I left them behind. Then Dave Wyndorff summed it up so succinctly in that interview I posted.
(paraphrasing)
"Punk turned into hardcore and the hardcore scene in NYC turned into dudes making music for dudes and I said forget this, there's nothing for me there."

yep. Orange 9mm was cool for like a minute. turned into a buncha skater dudes who were content with just being with other skater dudes all day, or hardcore then straight edge, no pussy for you, yuck.
