I've started uploading some of the photographs I took of hardcore bands in the early 90's, most all in Southern California. There are thousands, so this set will grow slowly over time.

Came across this website through a link from a co-worker and stumbled upon this small writeup of the Christie Front Drive 7". Noticed this part of the article:
And among the zine-reading hordes of the early '90s, the sound was practically revolutionary. Christie Front Drive found an unlikely booster in hardcore Bible HeartattaCk zine after its debut 12-inch came out.
"When you send a record to a magazine, it depends on whose hands it falls into," Richter says. "But the one kid who reviewed it was like, 'Melody, what a crazy idea!'"
The 'one kid' was me. :) I was pretty much alone with that opinion on that staff. A nice little workday flashback. Been having a few of those lately.
I found some old issues of HeartattaCk in pdf format online. HeartattaCk is a hardcore/punk zine out of Goleta, CA that I did some photographs and record reviews for during their first few issues before I got bored of 'scene' routines. . Definitely a huge influence on me still today.
