108-Creation. Sustenance. Destruction.

By admin on Jun. 28, 2006.


108
Creation. Sustenance. Destruction. CD
Equal Vision Records

In 2006 I have pretty mixed feelings about 108. On one hand, I think they were a pretty interesting band who pushed the envelope on what can and can’t be deemed “hardcore.” I also think, listening to this now, that they got a lot better as they went on. The Krishna stuff: eh, whatever. While I find the views of Krishna’s about women and a few other things to be quite disturbing, 108 have always seemed to defy those stereotypes. Thus this discography is a mix of good and bad. Like a lot of discographies these days the disks go backwards chronologically. We begin with Threefold Misery, which is by far 108′s finest record. 108 got so noisy and pissed off on this record. They aren’t quite Black Flag or Deadguy, but you can tell when listening to this record that is what they were going for. Twenty bonus points for one of the best lines ever in a hardcore song during Killer Of The Soul: only a demon would dine on the flesh of the dead. Scandal also makes me chuckle because it reminds me of my earliest days in hardcore and the controversy between Equal Vision and Trustkill Fanzine. Next up is the Curse Of Instinct record, which is pretty much along the same lines. I do wonder why the covers they recorded around that time aren’t on here? Songs of Separation comes next and this record hasn’t held up well at all. Sure there are some great moments. I can hear a bit of influence from the Beyond LP here. I still don’t like the lyrics of Woman though. I’ve never liked Holy Name that much.

Overall, if you like 108 you should pick this up. It isn’t a totally complete discography, but it’s pretty close. I still have the nice letter Kate 08 sent me when I was in tenth grade after writing to get a copy of Krishna Grrrl Fanzine.

Top 100 Of The Nineties: By The Grace Of God-For The Love Of Indie Rock 7″

By admin on Mar. 2, 2006.

By The Grace Of God
For The Love Of Indie Rock 7”
Victory Records
1996

I remember Victory sending out a newsletter sometime in 1996, probably the summer, about their new releases.  The usual garbage like Snapcase and Earth Crisis had new releases, the One Life Crew controversy was covered, and there was an announcement about a new band called By The Grace Of God.  This band was supposed to have members of Endpoint and apparently had recently played their first show, playing three songs and a Judge cover.  At the time of course crap like Snapcase was huge, real hardcore bands like Devoid Of Faith and Floorpunch were starting to gain momentum, so hearing dudes from Endpoint were doing a band that covered Judge was a good thing.

I got the 7” shortly after.  I was pretty floored by it.  It sounded, by the time period’s standards, pretty “modern” but was still hardcore and a definite return to the older Endpoint style.  Throw in a cover of fucking Plastic Bomb on the CD and I knew this band was good.

I saw them live twice.  One at Manville Elks Lodge with the scab version of Deadguy & C.R.. The other time was of course at the infamous show in Yardley PA.  I actually missed the whole thing!  Our friends in the band Rad opened the show but then Saves The Day was playing so I walked down to the Wawa at the end of the street.  By the time I had come back everything had happened.  Whoops.

By The Grace Of God would go on to record another record for Victory and then one more record on a smaller label.  Members of this band have gone on to be in Black Cross, Good Riddance, and Elliot.

Here is an mp3 of Fissures.

These songs are posted for sample purposes.  I post them so that people can be turned on to cool music and hopefully return the favor for someone else.  Each mp3 will be up for one week and then will be taken down. please support the bands and labels by buying these records and checking them out when they play your town.  DIY hardcore punk bands deserve your support as an alternative to Clear Channel/MTV/RIAA nonsense. 

If you are the artist or copyright holder for this song and would like it removed please email me and it will be removed in a timely manner.
