Self Worth


Better Than A Thousand a straight edge hardcore band, from the 90s featured members of Youth Of Today, Battery, Damnation A.D., Shelter and Worlds Collide. Brought a straight forward style of hardcore punk with a slight melodic edge. Self Worth features 5 songs, this is the debuet EP from this band. Ray Cappo, who also sang in bands like Youth Of Today and Shelter, lays down vocal duties for this EP. Like his bands before, Ray sings about Straight edge and issues dealing with friends and the old times in NY.This 7" is very out of print, and now considered rare. BT1K relesaed 2 more full lengths before calling it quits, they also toured Europe and Southern America while gaining a strong fan base. Below you will find a link to their myspace as well as a download link.

Drown In My Puke


Fast, Angry, Smart and SOBER. XfilesX hails from New Bedford Mass. With the fury of the old time hardcore bands and the thrash elements from XfilesX contemporaries like Tear It Up. XfilesX played straight edge trash core, with a bit of a comical edge (see songs like "the thing about edge breakers is..). Files played for a number of years releasing a few Eps and splits with a Full length LP. Bands that these members moved onto were The Lovely Lads, Mind Eraser, Soul Swallower, Breathing Fire, and Sex Positions. This being an early Ep the band really shined through with the relentless blast beats and harsh vocals. Below you will find the bands myspace as well as Trash Arts website, as well as the download link.
