TERMINAL ESCAPE is a home for cassettes. Everything posted here is held in hand and ripped in-house. This blog is meant to support those artists and labels, not circumvent them. The author of the blog calls himself the Wizard, who lives in San Fransisco and is responsible for TERMINAL ESCAPE. The blog also features some articles dedicated to the hardcore music genre.
One look at the cover and I thought I knew what I was getting - I judged the book (so to speak). From the outside This Is A Propaganda screams tough, negative, metallic hardcore and...well, that's exactly what you get. The midpaced two riff monotony of "We Don't Like You" sets the tone you can feel that the second track is where they are going to unleash. And then they unleash. Seeing WARHEAD in 2001 must have been absolutely terrifying - they sound like a bulldozer churning dead earth...

From a 2010 Texas collection released in Poland to a 2019 California collection released in Japan, let's get ready to fukkn GO! with Sacramento's SICK BURN. They came from the ashes of RAD (really they just switched a guitarist and kept thrashing) and the Crew For Life kids recognized the greatness immediately, dumping SICK BURN on an unsuspecting Japanese audience a few years back. Their ability to be deadly serious about thrashing and content while clearly having a blast (while blasting)..

First thought? Spending a slightly drunken evening in 2024 listening to a recording DEAD LCOK made in 2002 makes me feel like I felt when I spent countless sober evenings in 1993 listening to a recording GRIMPLE made in 1993. It's the tinny buzzsaw guitar, the snotty raspy vocals, the all go/no slow approach...it's fukk in every song and its punk as fukk, one of the fiercest sides I've blasted in a long long time. But there's a flip...and instead of mimicking the chaos punk on the other..

Tough as nails, raw as fuck hardcore from Chicago. AFFRONT don't need a justification and you don't need to know their pedigree. You just need to listen. Listen to "Speak" and listen to "Merchants Of Death" and know that this is what hardcore sounds like when you take away all of the bullshit. When you take away all the nonsense. This is what you're left with. Eight minutes of pure. That's it....AFFRONT is pure. A DEMONSTRATION OF AN AFFRONT

I remember the first time I dropped the needle on Aborted Teen Generation - it was one of "those" punk moments that you just keep with you. It was instantly familiar but it was also new...and it was more. I ordered a copy from Ebullition based on a MRR interview (my copy still has the ghost image of the Goleta address that pressed through the polysleeve), and I was not remotely disappointed. We hosted then in Oakland, and arranged summer travel plans to see them in Reno and Chico..

Absolute fucking scorcher from 2002 with 29 Indonesian hardcore bands, many of whom don't appear to pop up anywhere else. Impossible to go through band by band without getting lost in the filthy glory of underground DIY hardcore/punk, but some highlights: DIRTY CHAOS, GARPUTALA, BORGOL, PAPER SKIN, SPUTNIK, COP IS DEAD and BHH - it's hard to find a clunker in the mix. Raw, harsh, low fidelity, intense, honest and powerful hardcore punk? Sold.

DARK DAYS happened just as I moved back to San Francisco - not even just if I barely missed them or if I wasn't even close, since the onset micro-scenes means that if you aren't completely in a loop then you're completely outside of it. Regardless of the why, I've spent a fair bit of time with 2009's How Have We Done This in the years since and I am (still) impressed by the band's ferocity. The shit is just....ugly. GEHENNA and COP OUT vibes. Some bands have raspy, desolate sounding vocals;..

I'm going to assume that LOS CRUDOS need no introduction in this community (and that's what we are...right?), and I'm also going to assume that this assumption is correct. This Polish release from Plague tapes collects the '91 Libertad demo, "500 Años" from the In The Spirit Of Total Resistance comp and a radio show recorded very early in the band's run.....basically? Essential shit. So here you go - maybe you didn't need an introduction...maybe you just needed a reminder. 1492-1992: 500..

Remember that pile of heat from Indonesia that dropped in my lap a few weeks ago? Well get ready for more of this hot shit hardcore punk action in your future, because I have yet to blast a dud. Turn of the century fastcore/crust from HUSTLER that's recorded every bit as raw as the band sounds and of course the recording only adds to the intensity and power. Brutal class consciousness immortalized with tracks like "Red Punx," "Failure Of Socialist Front '98" and "Class War." Unapologetic..

These OC punks just get the fuck in, get the busy and get the fuck out. Early POISON IDEA vibes and heavy Southern California dirty beach hardcore, with interview clips and shit between tracks. It's so deadly simple and raw....it's what you need. I WANNA MAKE A REQUEST
