Ep 16 - Resist 8 - The Bright Side of What? Falling Short

Good things come to those who wait.
You're welcome.
In a similar sense, though, a recurring theme in this episode is hardcore from the west coast. No idea how or why it happened, but for some reason Perth just took the mantle for a few years in this middle stretch of the Resist catalogue. As such, Jaxon excels as he regales us with 'Nah bro, it was really like this.'
The biggest record we touch on during this episode is 'The Bright Side', the sole full-length from Break Even, who at one point were perhaps the biggest Australian hardcore band outside of Parkway Drive. An interesting band - we talk their development and growth a bit, the story and circumstance from which this record emerged and how badly Perth needed it at the time. This record was a game-changer, definitely in Perth, if not more widely afield - loathe to use the word community, it is hard to position this record as anything other than a community building tool. Big record for a whole generation of young folk in Perth and it breathed some welcome oxygen into things.
Anyway, enough rambling. We also touch on Crafter (as always), the underrated genius of the Clever Species LP and the Against Me! grift.
Strap in, bring Kleenex. It's an emotional one.
