Days before Kruelty's return to Sound & Fury Fest, vocalist and beloved HardLore regular Kohei Azuma (AKA Zuma) returns for his 4th appearance on the show to challenge our honor by (insanely) declaring that he thinks he can eat more nuggets than us.After 8 consecutive weeks on two different full US tours that Kruelty has finally freshly wrapped up, he just might be right... Featuring his wife and Kruelty bassist Seina as special guest co-host and scorekeeper, and Kruelty's manager Taylor Young (AKA his Dad) as moral support._____________________________________________________________Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf) HardLore: A Knotfest Series Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef___________________________________________________________Cool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comTry AG1 at DrinkAG1.com/HARDLORE to receive a free 1-year supply of vitamin D and 5 travel packs of AG1.Get 15% off MADD VINTAGE with code HARDLORE15! https://maddvintage.com/___________________________________________________________FOLLOW KRUELTY:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/krueltyjphc/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/krueltyjphc FOLLOW ZUMA:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/zuma94jp/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/zuma94jp FOLLOW SEINA:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/se7_cks/ FOLLOW TAYLOR:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/taylorxyoung/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/taylorxyoung FOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2 FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/ColinYovng FOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE #KRUELTY 00:00:00 - Start00:03:27 - Nugget 100:04:28 - Touring With Harms Way00:07:23 - Creeping Death Tour00:10:32 - Seina's Interests00:11:53 - Meeting Zuma00:15:29 - Up Next For Kruelty00:16:17 - Response To New Record00:19:41 - Day In the Life of Seina00:20:17 - Kruelty Response In Japan00:21:57 - Pet Peeves00:27:53 - Favorite Show Memory00:32:20 - Favorite Things About Touring the US00:33:27 - Favorite Japanese Death And Doom Metal Bands00:37:08 - Food Rankings00:41:28 - 7/1100:42:39 - Japan Doing Things Better00:44:06 - Angel Du$t Feature00:45:28 - Thoughts On the Tied Down Spin Kick00:48:27 - Fortnite00:50:08 - Expectations of First US Tour00:53:55 - Taylors Initial Reaction To Kruelty00:57:11 - Meeting Seina00:59:26 - Discovering Heavy Music01:01:48 - Taylor Being Angry With Colin01:06:33 - Rigged Jeapordy Buzzer01:08:09 - Pardon This Interruption01:10:47 - Bands They Currently Enjoy01:15:16 - Favorite Zuma-isms01:17:40 - Favorite Ice Cream at 7/1101:19:17 - Taylors Favorite Record with His Involvement01:26:57 - Zombie Apocalypse01:29:39 - Hardcore Perception In Japan01:35:19 - Places to Go In Japan01:38:21 - Farting on Charlie01:41:11 - Seina's Favorite Tour01:45:26 - Agenda After Getting Back Home

WHISPERS: Bangkok Evilcore w/ Mike Law and Ole Suwan
We were joined at The Pit Recording Studio in Sunland, CA by Nitisart “Mike” Chaiburi and Kitti “Ole” Suwan of the great WHISPERS, all the way from Bangkok, Thailand.A truly unbelievable group of people both personally and musically, they’ve broken through every barrier imaginable through their undeniable spirit, infectiously unique and hard and passionate love for hardcore music.Being the first band from Bangkok to achieve so much of what they have achieved, we’re honored to talk to Whispers about their origin from local band in Bangkok who evolved into the definitive band that represents not only their city, but all of Thailand around the world. We can’t think of a better group or a better band for the job, and just five minutes of this conversation is all you’ll need to hear to understand why.______________________________________ Edited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf) HardLore: A Knotfest Series Join the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggef_____________________________________ Cool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comTry AG1 at DrinkAG1.com/HARDLORE to receive a free 1-year supply of vitamin D and 5 travel packs of AG1.Get 15% off MADD VINTAGE with code HARDLORE15! https://maddvintage.com/___________________________________ FOLLOW WHISPERS:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/whispershc/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/whispershc FOLLOW MIKE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/mikelaw307/ FOLLOW OLE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/oletalifez/ FOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2 FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/ColinYovng FOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE 00:00:00 - Start00:01:02 - Introduction00:02:20 - Finding Hardcore in Thailand00:08:25 - 555555555555500:10:19 - Their Many Many Vintage Stores00:12:15 - Friendships before Whispers00:13:33 - H8000 Bands00:15:45 - Finding European Hardcore00:18:17 - Activities Outside of Whispers00:20:13 - Mike’s Vocal Style00:21:19 - Whispers Through the Years00:24:34 - Bangkok During Covid00:26:00 - Relax Time00:27:57 - Stories With Stéphen Kickback00:31:02 - Pardon This Interruption00:33:40 - Meeting Gap00:37:01 - First Whispers Tour Ever00:39:00 - Asian Countries Played00:39:42 - Response To Whispers Across The World00:41:00 - Linking Up with Speed00:42:09 - Touring Europe00:43:16 - Yom Ma Lok00:47:24 - Flatspot Records00:48:15 - First US Tour00:51:00 - Future Aspirations for Whispers00:51:59 - Tied Down Fest00:53:41 - Tour Essentials (Hot Dogs)00:54:49 - US Food vs Thailand Food01:00:18 - Sound and Fury01:03:21 - Top 4 HC Records01:06:38 - Ghosts?01:10:45 - Patreon Q&A01:11:38 - Top 4 Thai HC01:12:38 - Greatest Breakdown Of All Time01:14:50 - Inspirations / Influences

Mac Miller (Cosmic Joke)
HardLore is joined by close friend of the show and vocalist of the first ever band on the HardLore Records roster: Mac Miller (real name) of COSMIC JOKE. Fresh off of their brand new 12" EP "Forced Perspective", we hear all about their goal as a band to carry the torch for the classic style of California Hardcore Punk made famous by their influences (Bad Religion, Adolescents, Circle Jerks, etc...) and the long road as lifelong touring musicians and crew that got them there. From growing up at the Cobalt Cafe, connecting the dots between Ska and Hardcore, doing Warped Tour with The Sheds, finally playing Sound & Fury, transitioning into being a career merch guy for bands like Wallows, Death Cab, Denzel Curry and MUCH, much more.Pick up one of the last few copies of HardLore's exclusive color of Forced Perspective on our store while you still can: https://closedcasketactivities.com/products/cosmic-joke-forced-perspectiveEdited by Steven Grise (@iamoneonenineseven) • Title sequence by Nicholas Marzluf (@marzluf)HardLore: A Knotfest SeriesJoin the HARDLORE PATREON to watch every single weekly episode early and ad-free, alongside exclusive monthly episodes: https://patreon.com/hardlorepodJoin the HARDLORE DISCORD: https://discord.gg/jA9rppggefCool links:HardLore Official Website/HardLore Records store: https://hardlorepod.comGet 15% off MADD VINTAGE with code HARDLORE15! https://maddvintage.com/ FOLLOW COSMIC JOKE: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/cosmicjokelaTWITTER | https://twitter.com/cosmicjokelaFOLLOW MAC: INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/macxmillerTWITTER | https://twitter.com/macxmillerFOLLOW HARDLORE:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/hardlorepod/TWITTER | https://twitter.com/hardlorepodSPOTIFY | https://spoti.fi/3J1GIrpAPPLE | https://apple.co/3IKBss2FOLLOW COLIN:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/colinyovng/FOLLOW BO:INSTAGRAM | https://www.instagram.com/bosxe/TWITTER | https://www.twitter.com/bosxe #HARDLORE #HARDCORE00:00:00 - Start00:02:47 - Colin Meets Mac00:08:22 - Cosmic Joke Self Titled00:11:01 - Finally Playing Sound & Fury00:13:42 - Forced Perspective00:16:31 - Finding Punk, Hardcore, and Ska00:22:01 - First Show Ever00:23:20 - Young Morgan Miller00:26:37 - Feeding the Band With $500:27:40 - Clean House00:31:36 - First Tour00:34:41 - First time attending Warped Tour00:39:42 - PLAYING Warped Tour00:50:09 - Mediaskare00:53:40 - Top 4 Bald Guys00:59:20 - Tony Hawk01:03:17 - Attila Shirt...01:05:40 - Highs and Lows of doing Merch01:15:12 - Pardon This Interruption01:16:01 - Worst venue In the Country01:22:50 - Merch Cuts And How To Navigate Them01:30:20 - Merch Pet Peeves01:32:11 - Whats Hot?
