Europe's longest standing Hardcore band has done it again. A CONGRESS record has never disappointed anyone, and this one is no different. If nothing else, CONGRESS are taking more influences from all corners, New York Hard Core, Gothic and Heavy Metal to name a few. Incredible technical musicianship, amazing songwriting and the usual personal/political lyrics make for another keeper. This is the kind of record you'll listen to 100 times and you'll still hear and discover new things everytime you do. 'Stake Through The Heart' also marks the last of the line up problems for CONGRESS. 2 new guys in the band (ex-Spineless and ex- Natural Order). We also welcome Tom (formerly vocalist of Family of Dog) as the new singer for CONGRESS. His stage presence and personality are bound to make a big difference!

Tracklist:

1. Sharpening the stakes
2. Breed some courage
3. Chemical breakdown
4. Angry with the sun
5. Reality conspiracy

Ow this is what you can call quality hardcore. Culture and Kindred were, without any doubt, some of the most talked about HC bands in our scene back in 1997 and this split just proves why. Great songs, both bands sound better than ever ! We're running out the last 50 cd's and they will never be repressed so make sure you get yours. Different artwork was made for the vinyl release, totally beautiful Silver sleeve ! This record was supposed to come out in the US on Toybox Records, but it never came out. All that exists is an American Testpress 12" on Toybox.

Tracklist:

1. K: Retribution
2. K: Existence

Congress are without doubt one of the most respected, longest lasting underground hardcore bands from Belgium. The band started way back in 1993, when all hardcore activity was at an alltime low in Belgium. The band first recorded a four-song demo with a different singer (which would later become the added bonustracks on 'The Other Cheek'), and in 1994 the band released their debut 7" 'Euridium' on what was then still called Warehouse Records later to become the Goodlife label. 'Euridium' hit hardcorescenes worldlike like a bomb, thus introducing the musical style typical for Congress and what would later become wellknown as 'Edgemetal', a combination of the straightedge/drugfree lifestyle and deathmetal music which was the trend in their H8000-area. Soon, through the release of 'Euridium' on CD and relentless touring of Europe, Congress set a very strong live-reputation for themselves, resulting in the nothing short of amazing full length debut album 'Blackened Persistance' (1995). This record is still one of the genredefining records. 'Blackened Persistance' is Goodlife's logical bestseller to date and was recently rereleased in the fall of '97 with six live bonussongs for CD-ROM-video, which enables the listener or rather, viewer to watch the band play live on their computer screen on five different locations! 1996 saw the release of Congress''The Other Cheek'-CD. 'The Other Cheek' is nothing short of a brilliant record, again recorded at Midas Studio in Belgium, a studio that saw it's reputation rise along with Congress' fame, 'The Other Cheek' was another climax in Congress' short but happening story so far... In the meantime, members of Congress also started playing in bands like Liar or Goodlife's Deformity, with whom Congress did a split 7" in the summer of '97. After a quite calm period, the band made it's re-appearance with their most recent, best written and produced album so far 'Angry with the Sun'. (1998).The record was released may 1st and got tremendous response and reviews worldwide. They were asked to tour during alongside New Yorks hardest All Out War and played on some of the big festivals with success. In 1999, Congress recorded four new songs which appeared on the Australian Trial and Error label, the complexity and variety of these songs made the foundation of their yet-to-come-full length which would appear in 2000. Trouble within the band lead to the departure of rythm-guitarist Micha

Mettalic vegan hxc from Rome

They play a great mix of Hardcore, Punkrock and Punkpop and they will surely impress you with their supercatchy songs and good sung lyrics that will be the soundtrack for good old fashion 'bing-bing' with the lady!This is a damn fine piece of art...

Amazing Pop-Punk for fans of Jimmy eat World, Get up Kids or Weezer!

WAKING KILLS THE DREAM, Hamartia, The Last Year and Horse the band. delivering each some of their newest songs, each in their own unique style ranging from emo to the more metal orientated hardcore...this release gives you an insight on some of the upcoming talents from the US.

Another new band on GL is North Carolina's UNDYING. This band has two former members of CATHARSIS in it's ranks and this whole record has the Catharsis influence allover it ! UNDYING's approach is way more technical, 12 songs on this one. Expect fast & technical Swedish-influenced Deathmetal from Undying with great and thoughtful lyrics.

Finally the third album of Length Of Time sees the light of day... And what an album it is! Length of time once more unleashes it's dark hymns of brutal Hardcore, wrapped up in a special design (DIGIPACK AVAILABLE) with some of the most diversive vocals of this year!

Lyrics dealing with veganism, animal rights, etc Reprisal stand solid as a rock & all you can do is spread the word: END SPECEISM! And worship Reprisal !

New school hardcore from Erie with a strong blend of positive and spiritual message.
The band is gaining tons of attention in the states. In the vein of No Innocent Victim .

Total nyhc hardcore with some members of 25 ta life.
Leave it to Rick to bring you something different and interesting. A slight stray away from the 1st CD from Comin Correct, Rick takes it to another level. Opening with the Star Wars theme music the new Comin Correct starts off quite heavy. Vocals are faster an deeper than the 1st cd. Music is TOTALLY different. Lots and lots of metal, quick style hardcore riffs here. Personally, I like the new Cd better than the original but some might feel that it sounds too much like 25 ta Life. You gotta here this CD yourself to decide. Brutal, deep, and powerful, this band has made a big musical change, but the message is the same.
