In this Episode the crew got together with Scott from North Buffalo his brother Jay and Kelly Kenmore. We talked about our favorite hardcore LP's 80-99 and 2000-present. Scott drew the names out of a hat and we picked in that order. The only rule was that you couldnt pick a record that was already picked. It was a fun discussion and was the inspiration for our #CoreTalk segments on the podcast. Thanks and shoutout to Scott for that. It ran a bit long so we split the discussion up into two parts. Part 2 will be out in a few weeks. 

In this Episode of our "Core Talk" Series we discussed New Age Records. We "drafted" our favorite releases on the label and had label founder, Mike Hartsfield along for the ride. We also had Larry from the Bleachmouth Poscript Podcast on along for the ride. It was a great discussion and we hope that you enjoy and check out some of the stuff that we drafted as well as New Age in general.
