And of course...
and
Drive This Seven Inch Wooden Stake Through My Philadelphia Heart and
The Fine Art of Original Sin by the almighty
Ink & Dagger.
Time to pimp them: Ink & Dagger were a hardcore band from Philadelphia in the middle-late 1990s. Their singer is now deceased, so they are defunct. The bassist from Ink & Dagger plays in The Icarus Line now.
DTSIWSTMPH is a CD collection of their 2 7"s at the time (
Love is Dead [which was numbered in blood] and
DTSIWSTMPH) with a bonus track. It's 23 minutes of pure vampire fury that tears your face off and generally kicks a whole lot of ass.
The Fine Art of Original Sin was their debut full length. They added some electronics to the mix, but didn't soften one bit. They still want your blood. I'll be ordering their final, self-titled, LP from Buddyhead when the
Penance Soiree vinyl is released. But these 2 albums are absolutely amazing, and I can't get enough of them. If you like hardcore music, The Icarus Line, or vampires, I give it 2 thumbs up.
