So I've been getting really into hardcore punk lately (bands like Minor threat, Dead Kennedys, etc.). I was wondering, does anyone know of any HxC or SxE bands that still have concert atmospheres like early hardcore punk bands like Minor Threat? National bands or local bands, either are fine... I live in CT, so anything in CT, NYC, MA, RI, or even Philly would be cool for local bands if anyone knows of any. Also I've been checking out Bane recently, can anyone tell me what their shows are like? I just really wanna experience a show similar to something I'd be able to get at like a Minor Threat show back in the 80's...

First let me teach you about AP.net.

Typing like that, you're gonna get ripped apart. Using slang like "HxC" and "SxE" wont end well.

Now some recs:


Black Flag
Embrace
Fugazi
Rites Of Spring
Refused
The Clash
Sex Pistols
Buzzcocks
X

[Moses Malone]

[ThisIsNotDan]

you might be better off asking this on theb9.com. lots of threads about local shows

@Mibabalou Sorry, I'm new here, thanks for the info. @Moses Malone Ha I've actually seen that image before, I don't wanna be one of those stereotypical guys, I just wanna be straight-edge and have a good time.

@ThisIsNotDan Thanks, I'll try there too.

Damn, you just missed out on Casey Jones' final tour. They would have been absolutely perfect for this. Either way they're worth checking out on record.

[NickIsI]

[CheckeredFloors]

Chiodos.

[fallingapart101]

They don't tour but I highly recommend Casey Jones and Have Heart. Also Project X

[Coloso]

lol straightedge kids are generally fucking idiots
and boring ones at that
but um
try these, most are in the NE I think too

Backtrack - Darker Handcraft
Blacklisted - Heavier Than Heaven, Lonelier Than God
The Carrier - Blind to what Is Right
No Trigger - Tycoon
Frodus - And We Washed Our Weapons In The Sea

I dunno there's a few off of the top of my head I guess
and for hardcore punk that's similar to those bands but no longer together:

Born Against - The Rebel Sound Of Shit And Failure
Rudimentary Peni - Cacophony
The Nation Of Ulysses - Plays Pretty For Baby
Moss Icon - Lyburnum
Jawbox - For Your Own Special Sweetheart
Void/Faith - Split
Nomeansno - Wrong

tried to stay away from the less obvious and I took yor description pretty broadly but yeah

Have Heart is probably one of the best known hardcore edge bands of the '00s. They broke up, but they have a lot of good stuff.
