| Music | Pff where to start? I'm into Youth Crew bands current and from the past. From Project X to Get The Most and all the good stuff in between. I'm also into bands like American Nightmare, Suicide File, Hope Conspiracy and Ritual. And I love my punkrock every now and then as well as that new breed of more americana-like punkrock. ' We're Not In This Alone' by Youth Of Today is the best hardcore record ever made. |
| Reading | This one is even harder. Just check my links and go to my digital bookshelf to see what I'm reading. |

| About me | From Shelter in 96 to True Colors in 2010, hardcore has been one of the foundations of my life. After seeing Shelter play in the W2 club in Den Bosch in 1996 I have been buying records and going to shows. My involvment grew steadily. From doing a fanzine called Speak Our Minds (issue 1 contained interviews w Mainstrike, Reaching Forward, Guiding Line and Lifesign) to three issues of Speak My Mind magazine (which contained interviews with Kill Your Idols, Good Riddance, H20, Amendment 18 and more) to being a driver and whatnot for Reaching Forward on some of their European tours, starting my own band called Heartfelt, doing an online blog/e-zine etc. Right now I have a family, a steady job and my love for hardcore and punk to keep me busy during the day. |
