If your band is looking for members, shows, equipment
etc, then post on the bands need help section
For some reason this page hasnt been updated in about 2 years. Most band links are now posted on the message board in the mp3 section. Someday I'll get around to updating this page
If
you want your band listed on this site, you must meet the following: Must
have been around for at least 1 year (no newby rock stars), your band's name
must be on multiple HARDCORE shows posted on this site over the year. If you
just started, or I never saw your shows posted with other Hardcore bands....then
I suggest you hook up some shows and start getting noticed :) This scene is
about support so you'd better be playing shows and supporting other HARDCORE
bands.
