When I first got into hardcore I witnessed some pretty wild events. There were fights with skinheads, suburban dudes acting as "crews," countless stage dives, a full scale riot, black eyes, a broken nose, and a broken window at a gig in a second story loft courtesy of a guitar amp. There was also the time we all had to wait it out because someone pulled a gun out in the parking lot. This all transpired within my first two years in the scene. Needless to say I was hooked. This podcast will serve as not only a memory of all of those events, but also a look into the future.

Greg sits down with Vanya, Daan, and Brecht from Becoming A.D. Becoming A.D. are a hardcore/thrash crossover band from Belgium that will appeal to fans of Power Trip, Municipal Waste, and Dead Heat.
The guys discuss how they each found hardcore and how Becoming A.D. came together. We spend a considerable time hearing about the state of the Belgian and European hardcore scenes, which are going through a post-pandemic renaissance like many scenes in the United States. This is a great episode for people how like European hardcore; the guys introduce us to a number of lesser known bands from Belgium that are worth checking out.
We also hear some highlights from some notable shows Becoming A.D. has played, including a recent show in Ghent where they opened for western New York hometown heroes @BuriedAliveHardcore and @PureHeel.
Stream Becoming A.D. on all the major music streaming platforms. Follow the band on Instagram at @Becoming_AD and buy merch at linktr.ee/becomingad.
