Well, maybe for people into hardcore (or fans of early Throwdown)...but as a formation, performance and stage presence I prefer Throwdown during the Venom & Tears album (a completely different band, also taking about band members).
They were the first hard core show I went to... must have been 2000. I was blown away by it all. Good times! Right the at this venue.. the chain reaction!
Straight edge needs to make a comeback. Throwdown weren't giving themselves enough credit I think. They shouldn't have dropped this style. Pretty lame because they sort of just fell off the radar after changing anyway.
I can understand your feelings if you're into former/earlier Throwdown but was Throwdown even known/popular before (when a hardcore, straight edge band)? I've heard of Throwdown for the first time when the album Venom & Tears was released and by that time they sounded like Pantera etc. and with no former members anymore in the band if I'm not wrong, so basically Throwdown (the former band) was a completely different band than the later Throwdown...like two different bands at this point with the same name. I'm from Europe btw.
@@MLCrow I remember hearing their old stuff songs like trust and slip in a few skate videos around like 02 before haymaker so I’d say we’re definitely a well known popular hxc band back then
@@jayedens8221 Ok, I wasn't familiar with Throwdown as a hxc band. I had some schoolmates (we are talking about the 90's) who were skaters...I remember they used to listen to Strife, Earth Crisis, Snapcase, Madball, Sick Of It All etc. I was never (I'm not) really into hxc bands so sorry if the bands I listed are not even hxc...I'm not an expert ofc...maybe Throwdown didn't exist in the 90's. Whatever.
Hitting rock bottom is the best thing that happens for some people. Once you start feeling the true emotions and mental clarity of sobriety you'll never want to go back.
Nothing wrong...I know some dudes (mostly ex skaters) that were into straight edge when they were teens...well, some became weed smokers and drinkers. They look back with a smile at their past. I just think they missed a lot of fun back then. Everything can be so cool if you don't exaggerate. I never cared about this straight edge stuff, not for me but I can dig some HC music.
@@johnnyslokes2712 Sure, I agree. Btw: personally I don't really like this early Throwdown (hardcore, straight edge), I like way more the later one or let's say the formation during the Venom & Tears album (more into groove metal, very Pantera influenced), such great live performances too, I've heard about Throwdown thanks to that album (the 1st song I've heard was Holy Roller), so I started to make some researches about the band. At that point the band had no original/former members anymore, basically it's like two different bands with the same name but honestly I really like just V&T album, not really the other albums of early or later Throwdown.
@@MLCrow This is the only Throwdown that I'm familiar with. I dont know anything about their newer stuff but if I remember then I'll check out Venom and Tears album.
@@johnnyslokes2712 If you dig Pantera you will probably like Venom & Tears. If you're into early Throwdown like in this video (or into hardcore way the most) you will probably don't like the later Throwdown...a total different musical direction. Many early hardcore fans of the band hate the later one.

Agree best era, hands down. Can't compete to Barney's voice. Dude fucking kills it every track.
This is how I honor all the fallen soldiers. Punk will never die, I’m young but I’ll be part of the movement that keeps hardcore alive. XX
Early Throwdown was the best. Period.
Man, I miss this…. I mean… I love drugs too but these shows were life when I was a kid.
Could you describe the ruckus, sir?
Tribal eargasam
We need more Straight Edge bands in the world!! I discovered Straight Edge at 13, and have been dedicated ever since....
RAISE YOUR FIST IN THE AIR !!!
COVID FREE!!!!

HAHHAHHAHAH
Timecode Entertainment. I remember watching this with a billion pixels.
I got to see them at Gilman Ave, and in OC, at Hobie Barmichaels. Keith Barney days of Throwdown was incredible. sXe needs to return.

I prefer Throwdown during the Venom & Tears album...but yeah, it was a total different band than this (early) one.
RIP SHOWCASE

@@MLCrow Throwdown is just a sick band, I think some drugs are neat. I just like to thrash!

What tuning did they use?
Slipknot
Drop c
Wish we could have gotten one more album before keiths throat got all fucked up. Dave is alright but eh
Can't say ive heard this slipknot song before
L
@@andresmaceo2206 so you think this song and this version in particular sounds nothing like slipknot particularly early slipknot ?
Old Throwdown is best Throwdown. From Haymaker onwards, meh. Totally changed the sound and style, just wasn't a fan. This was peak Throwdown for me.
