I was 18 in the late 90’s and was hired at an indie record shop. Played in punk bands and was then given the opportunity to curate our punk/hardcore section. Still one of my fondest memories was turning people onto things I thought were cool. Saves The Day’s “Can’t Slow Down”, Lifetime’s “Jersey’s Best Dancer’s”, and NOFX’s “The Decline” were all new releases around then. Would always love when people came back to say they liked something I recommended them. Ahh the 90’s.

A friend of mine in college got in my car once and without saying anything, put Punk in Drublic by NOFX into my cassette player. It's still one of my favorite albums.

Do you still listen to hardcore? I recently got into it again. Love listening to Minor Threat and End It while I lift weights. Otherwise I have the most soft taste in music 😂

Yea for sure. Grew up in and caught a good chunk of the NYHC scene. Still love me some Sick of it All, but my recent favorite band is a mix of punk hardcore and thrash out of MA called A Wilhelm Scream. Check out their record “Ruiner” from a few years back, it’s a masterpiece.
