In 1997 a band called Birthplace in Japan was born and released a demo (streaming further below) that fully captured that hardcore meets metal sound that later came to be known as “metalcore”. Now almost 30 years later the band still gets together every once in a while to rip it up. Birthplace played earlier this month and lucky for all of us, an awesome fullset live video with multicam editing and killer audio is up now. The fullset included members of the following bands who came out to rep that shit hard: Gates of Hopeless, Indication, and god168 of Loyal to the Grave/State Craft!
Check out the fullset live video below but then come back to hear that demo! Shit still sounds FRESH today!!!

What a MASSIVE announcement by our fellas in Japanese hardcore legends LOYAL TO THE GRAVE. After 7 long years, the band has just announced a brand new 5 track...
