HardLore's Day in Chicago with HARMS WAY, THE KILLER & HOLD MY OWN

It's a momentous day in HardLore history as we finally explored the hometown of half of our show: Chicago, Illinois. We visited a few places around town (hand picked by Bo) where we were joined by very special guests for one on one conversations before finally all converging together at the legendary Fireside Bowl, Chicago's most iconic hardcore venue of the late 90s and early 00s. Featuring Shane Merrill from The Killer, Chris Mills from Harms Way, and Anchit Chhabra from Hold My Own (and many other bands) Thanks to Electric Mud, NADC Burger, Reckless Records and of course the Fireside for having us. Reckless browsing music by Kevin MacLeod. _____________________________________________________________ Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf) HardLore: A Knotfest Series Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepod Join the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef ___________________________________________________________ Cool links: HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.com Get 15% off MADD VINTAGE with code HARDLORE15! https://maddvintage.com/ ___________________________________________________________ FOLLOW HARDLORE: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/ TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepod SPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrp APPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2   FOLLOW COLIN: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/ TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/ColinYovng   FOLLOW BO: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/ TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe ______________________________________________________ 00:00:00 - Start 00:00:44 - Shane Merrill/Electric Mud 00:01:44 - Evolution of Chicago Hardcore 00:04:58 - Breaking Cradle of Filth's Keyboard 00:06:01 - Shane Meeting Bo 00:10:44 - The Birth of Fest Culture 00:14:30 - The Killer 00:23:36 - Booking Shows is Gambling 00:27:46 - Shane's Four Favorite HC Records 00:33:50 - Anchit Chhabra/NADC Burger 00:40:30 - Chicago Hardcore Changing During His Time 00:41:13 - Shouting Out Local Bands 00:43:17 - Reckless Records 00:46:40 - Anchit's Four FavoriteHardcore Records 00:53:36 - Browsing The Reckless Shelves 00:55:30 - Chris Mills/Margie's 00:58:29 - Meeting Young Bo 01:07:02 - Beginnings of Harms Way 01:11:43 - Chris' Four Favorite Hardcore Records 01:13:10 - Young Bo and Chris Stories 01:19:30 - The Fireside Bowl 01:21:38 - Legendary Fireside Gigs 01:38:30 - STRIKE(S)
