By Way of Blood(newsongsup)

5 SONG DEMO IS DONE! IT SHOULD BE MASTERED AND UP READY FOR DOWNLOAD BY THE WEEKEND! LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK WHEN ITS UP.BY WAY OF BLOOD IS A STRAIGHT FORWARD HARDCORE BAND. No Gimmick's No Joke's We are here to keep hardcore ALIVE and add another page in hardcore history. We will never faulter and change our style to make money or fame. What we say is what we mean, we dance at show's, we stand for our friends and family, we are HARDCORE.I HAVE NEVER BEEN BIG ON PREACHING BUT, I HAVE BEEN TO A LOT OF SHOWS LATELY IN MASS, NEW YORK, AND HERE IN NH, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THOSE STATES HAVE A MUCH LAGER POPULATION AND MORE WELL KNOWN BANDS. BUT CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY HERE IN NH THE SAME HARDCORE KIDS THAT WILL TRAVEL TO MASS. AND REPRESENT SO HARD FOR THE MUSIC WE ALL LOVE SO MUCH BUT SOMEHOW LOCAL BANDS ARE FORCED TO PLAY SHOWS TO 30 KIDS AT THE MOST? IF YOU LOVE THIS MUSIC WHY WOULD YOU NOT SHOW THE SAME SUPPORT AND RESPECT OF THE BANDS FROM YOUR OWN BACK YARD? THESE BANDS ARE MORE THAN LIKELY KIDS YOU HAVE GONE TO SHOWS WITH OR MET AT SHOWS OR WHATEVER. IF THE LOCAL BANDS CAN’T GET THE SUPPORT OF THEIR OWN SCENE THEN HOW WILL ANYONE TAKE NEW HAMPSHIRE HARDCORE AS A REAL PLACE FOR HARDCORE? I’M NOT SAYING WE COULD BE ON LEVEL WITH NEW YORK OR MASS BUT WHY NOT HAVE A SCENE THAT CAN BE RESPECTED AS ONE? DO YOU EVER WONDER WHY BANDS LIKE MADBALL, AGNOSTIC FRONT AND OTHER BANDS OF THAT CALIBER HAVE SO LITTLE SHOWS AROUND HERE?IF YOU’RE READING THIS SAYING IM AT EVERY SHOW SO FUCK YOU! IM NOT CALLING ANYONE OUT JUST STATING THE FACT THAT THERE ARE A LOT KID HARDCORE KIDS HERE BUT THEY DON’T SEEM TO BE AT LOCAL SHOWS. THINK FOR 1 SECOND ABOUT WHAT YOU DO AT THESE SHOWS. DO YOU TEXT THE WHOLE TIME, DO YOU SIT IN THE CROWD WITH YOUR GIRL FRIEND AND CUDDLE, OR JUST GO JUST TO BE SEEN BY OTHER KIDS, SO THE WILL SAY "HEY I SAW YOU AT THAT LAST SHOW"? DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL IMPORTANT? MAYBE IM JUST JADED FROM WHEN I GOT INTO THIS SCENE AROUND HERE AND THERE WHERE TO MANY LOCAL BANDS TO COUNT AND SO MANY KIDS AT SHOWS THAT THERE WERE KIDS HANGING OUTSIDE THE SHOWS CAUSE THE COULD NOT GET IN, AND WHEN THEY WERE INSIDE THEY DANCED THE ASSES OFF HARD AND THE WAS NO BITCHING OR CRYING ABOUT BEING HIT NO FIGHTING OVER IT. IF YOU GOT BELTED IN THE FACE YOU TOOK IT LIKE A MAN OR MOVED AWAY FROM THE PIT. I GUESS ALL IM SAYING IS IF YOU LOVE HARDCORE THEN DON’T LET IT DIE CAUSE THERE IS NO ONE COMING OUT TO THESE SHOWS ANYMORE AND IT MAKES ME SICK. SO COME TO SHOWS REP YOU CREW, YOUR BOYS BAND, YOURSELF, JUST COME OUT AND LET IT ALL GO. BE THERE BECAUSE IT’S HARDCORE AND NOT FOR ANYTHING ELSE, LET ALL THE BULLSHIT IN LIFE STAY ON THE FLOOR. GIVE LOCAL BANDS A CHANCE, START A BAND, OR GET PEOPLE YOU KNOW TOGETHER TO START A BAND, DO SOMETHING WITH THIS SCENE BEFORE THERE IS NO SCENE OR KIDS LEFT.NXHXHXCX WILL LIVE IF WE LET IT! STAY TRUE. STAY PROUD. PLEASE REPOST THIS UNLESS YOU THINK IM WRONG. IF THAT IS THE CASE HANG UP YOUR NIKES AND STAY HOME! MARK, JAKE, IAN AND ERIC-B.W.O.B.
