Whhattt I didn't know their drummer was in TGI!? Doooppeee and yeah man i've been listening to Legend since Valediction came out, own both of their albums and funny thing is I don't really wear like band shirts or things like that anymore but i'm wearing a Legend shirt right now the dope ass eagle crest oneStill Alive is awesome once you get used to those guest vocals. The way he says "end" at the one part used to bother me haha.
This is just a random thought I had because I saw you mentioned FTFD too. Did you know theyre old drummer is in TGI now?
And have you ever heard their old singers band Legend? Theyre fucking sick.
I think I should post videos of couple of other hardcore subgenres which I also like:
Screamo (real one):

I used to swear by the hardcore scene, but you just grow out of it.
I listen to bands that make more mature/real music like Ceremony, Title Fight, Touche Amore, Bane, and Defeater and other bands like that.
But the whole breakdown hardcore scene is just a joke. Everybody is super lame and the shows are wack.
im with tyler, ive been to more shows than i can remember when i was in high school but i got tired of the drama and the excessive aggression/macho mentality most dudes have in the scene.
i saw Timur mentioned It Prevails and i still got a soft spot for them and a few others.

i could go on forever, but yeah. tssf/title fight/defeater/touche amore/la dispute and shit is tight too.
Yeh in there is a huge scene in melbourne for shit metalcore and straight edge bands, it really sucks. melbourne has a really good powerviolence/grindcore/punk scene though, some really cool shows.
so sick. did you know some record label is releasing an orchid tribute album with heaps of bands covering orchid songs? apparently raein and sed non satiata are on it. should be awesome.
i saw raein once too, best night ever.
