    ORIGINALLY POSTED ON MAY 29, 2020 ON THE SHINFO X DESMOND PODCAST. Grim Reality are by far the toughest band in Australian hardcore history and todays guest is the frontman DIMMA. He is definitely a man with alot of stories and Pete Abordi had a great chat with him, about the history of the band and the way the scene was back in the early 90's. This wraps up our 3 part mini series of Australian Hardcore Legends, thanks to all involved and hopefully this has inspired you to dust of those old CDs and vinyls and give them another spin. HARDCORE LIVES.

    ORIGINALLY POSTED ON MAY 19, 2020 ON THE SHINFO X DESMOND PODCASTPart 2 of my Legends of Hardcore Series and today this guest and his band would go down as the longest running active Aussie hardcore band, with an almost 30 year career. I doubt you'll find anyone that doesn't love Mindsnare and that's the way it should be. Matt is an absolute legend and him and Pete have a great conversation talking about things from way back in the day and even chat about Within Blood which were amazing too. I decided to play 4 songs today but i could have played many more. Thanks again for the support.

    ORIGINALLY POSTED ON MAY 14, 2020 ON THE SHINFO X DESMOND PODCAST. Part 1 of 3 of my Legends of Hardcore Series. Today's episode is a very special moment for me and if someone told me 20 years ago that id have a podcast with this guy as the guest id have laughed in your face. Even though the interview was conducted by Pete Abordi we have pretty much become the same person these days. I want to thank Luke Dolan for taking out the time in isolation to talk about this part of his life which is now over 25 years ago. Get ready for a history lesson of Newcastle hardcore and everything Luke Crew. Share this around so it goes out to all the old crew that might not know about this podcast.
