    United Blood 2010 Draft (Feat. Jack Cooper and Vince Guglielmi)

    With United Blood returning later this spring and hardcore from the early 2010s coming back into favor, we had Jack Cooper (What It Takes blog, Collective Action band) and Vince Guglielmi (Daily Snob writer, Violent Treatment producer) join us to draft bands from the UB 2010 lineup. That year of the fest is a really great timestamp of where capital-h was at heading into the new decade, and we each assemble five-band teams composed of bands on the bill.  Vote for which team you think won on the Violent Treatment Instagram or Twitter.  Violent Treatment on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/violenttreatment/ Violent Treatment on Twitter: https://x.com/violentreatment United Blood 2010 lineup: https://lastfm.freetls.fastly.net/i/u/ar0/01ba244574b3772bbd1c37bc5472c44a Check out What It Takes: https://www.instagram.com/what.it.takes.blog/ Check out Collective Action: https://collectiveactionhc.bandcamp.com/ Check out The Daily Snob: https://thedailysnob.substack.com/?utm_source=homepage_recommendations&utm_campaign=1771694 Intro song: Bracewar - "In a Rut" Outro song: Collective Action - "Collective Action"
