Killing Time 30 - The Stills

December 04, 2017 • Leave a Comment

If there is a Mt. Rushmore of NYHC records then Killing Time's Brightside would have to be on it. The lyrical content is timeless speaking of betrayal, loves lost, chances taken and untaken. It is perfect record which is undeniably a hardcore record while at the same time injecting some metal style musicianship while never crossing the line to the metalcore that came after. It is for me a perfect record. For me it will always be part of a trifecta of perfect hardcore records that were released within a few months of each other in 1989 - records that cemented my love of NYHC. Sick Of It All's Blood Sweat and No Tears, Gorilla Biscuits' Start Today and Killing Time's Brightside are all perfection for me. They encapsulate a feeling that will forever have me being 17.

On Black Friday 2017 I was able to capture the 30th Anniversary show of Killing Time at the Brooklyn Bazaar and was lucky to be in close with the band (i even got to soundcheck....badly) and share the joy of knowing that there is a room full of people that love you. Love what you are and were and what you represented to them.

I love you guys...
